The first approximate 160 meters of the survey were within tide influence. The stream channel was constrained by terraces in a broad valley. Land uses were second growth timber (15-30cm dbh) and mature trees (50-90cm dbh). The stream substrate was fine sediment (86%) and gravels (14%). Stream habitat was predominantly scour pool (71%). Large wood debris volume averaged 31.8m 3 /100m of stream channel length. Bank undercut ranged from 15-18% of the reach stream length. There was an average of 7.5% active bank erosion. The trees most frequently observed in the riparian zone were hardwoods 30-50cm (based on 8 riparian transects). REACH DESCRIPTIONS: Reach 1: (T09S-R11W-S12SW) Length 3266 meters. Reach 1 began at the confluence with the Siletz River (tidally influenced) and ended at the confluence with North Roy Creek. There were 147 meters of secondary channel habitat. The channel was constrained by high terraces in a broad valley. The average valley width index was 9.9 (range: 9.0-10.0). Land uses were second growth timber and mature trees. The average unit gradient was 0.3 percent. The stream habitat was predominately scour pool (73%). Ninety-five percent of the stream substrate was fine sediment. There was 9% actively eroding banks and 18% bank undercut. Large wood debris volume was 32.4m 3 /100m of the stream reach length. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zone were hardwoods 30-50cm dbh (based on five riparian transects). Reach 2: (T09S-R11W-S13NE) Length 1052 meters. Reach 2 began at the confluence with North Roy Creek and ended at South Roy Creek junction. There were 101 meters of secondary channel habitat. The channel was constrained by terraces in a broad valley. The average valley width index was 9.4 (range: 5.0-10.0). Land uses were second growth timber and mature trees. The average unit gradient was 0.5 percent. The stream habitat was predominately scour pool (66%). Seventy percent of the stream substrate consisted of fine sediment. Fifteen percent of the bank had undercut and active bank erosion was six percent. Large wood debris volume was 31.2m 3 /100m of stream length. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zone were hardwoods 30-50cm dbh (based on three riparian transects).

STREAM: Roy Creek LLID: 1239895448028 BASIN: Siletz River HUC NUMBER: 17100204 DATES: August 8 - 23, 2011 SURVEY CREW: Kip Woods / Mark Stone REPORT PREPARED BY: Staci Stein STREAM ORDER: 3 BASIN AREA: 10.49 km2 FIRST ORDER TRIBUTARIES: 2 USGS MAPS: Mowery Landing ECOREGION: Coast Range Sitka Spruce GENERAL DESCRIPTION: The Roy Creek habitat survey started at the confluence with the Siletz River and continued upstream 4318 meters ending at the confluence with South Roy Creek. The first approximate 160 meters of the survey were within tide influence. The stream channel was constrained by terraces in a broad valley. Land uses were second growth timber (15-30cm dbh) and mature trees (50-90cm dbh). The stream substrate was fine sediment (86%) and gravels (14%). Stream habitat was predominantly scour pool (71%). Large wood debris volume averaged 31.8m3/100m of stream channel length. Bank undercut ranged from 15-18% of the reach stream length. There was an average of 7.5% active bank erosion. The trees most frequently observed in the riparian zone were hardwoods 30-50cm (based on 8 riparian transects). REACH DESCRIPTIONS: Reach 1: (T09S-R11W-S12SW) Length 3266 meters. Reach 1 began at the confluence with the

Siletz River (tidally influenced) and ended at the confluence with North Roy Creek. There were 147 meters of secondary channel habitat. The channel was constrained by high terraces in a broad valley. The average valley width index was 9.9 (range: 9.0-10.0). Land uses were second growth timber and mature trees. The average unit gradient was 0.3 percent. The stream habitat was predominately scour pool (73%). Ninety-five percent of the stream substrate was fine sediment. There was 9% actively eroding banks and 18% bank undercut. Large wood debris volume was 32.4m3/100m of the stream reach length. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zone were hardwoods 30-50cm dbh (based on five riparian transects).

Reach 2: (T09S-R11W-S13NE) Length 1052 meters. Reach 2 began at the confluence with North

Roy Creek and ended at South Roy Creek junction. There were 101 meters of secondary channel habitat. The channel was constrained by terraces in a broad valley. The average valley width index was 9.4 (range: 5.0-10.0). Land uses were second growth timber and mature trees. The average unit gradient was 0.5 percent. The stream habitat was predominately scour pool (66%). Seventy percent of the stream substrate consisted of fine sediment. Fifteen percent of the bank had undercut and active bank erosion was six percent. Large wood debris volume was 31.2m3/100m of stream length. The trees found most frequently in the riparian zone were hardwoods 30-50cm dbh (based on three riparian transects).

COMMENTS:

Coho, trout, and fry were observed throughout the survey. Spawning gravels and several older redds were also noted. Additional wildlife noted included a bobcat, raccoon, bear, rough skinned newt, red legged frog, crawdad, and band-tailed pigeon. The crew commented on the many large wood debris jams throughout the surveyed stream. Several old and abandoned beaver dammed pools were observed and more recent beaver activity was noted. Tree species that were identified in the riparian zone included; elderberry, Douglas fir, hemlock, Sitka spruce, hawthorn, and vine maple. South Roy and North Roy Creek were surveyed 2011 summer as well.
