nhc <br />3 HYDROLOGIC ANALYSIS <br />3.1 Watershed Analysis <br />The project is located approximately 2,000 feet upstream of its confluence with the NF Teanaway River, <br />which is located approximately 1.5 river miles upstream of the confluence between the main and north <br />forks of the Teanaway River (Figure 1-1). <br />Lick Creek conveys flow and sediment from an approximate 6.1 square mile basin situated on the south <br />and southeast of the Teanaway Butte between the North and Middle Forks of the Teanaway River <br />(Figure 3-1). Basin elevations are 2,270-, 2,310-, and 4,460 -feet (NAVD88) near its confluence with the <br />NF Teanaway, at the project site, and at the peak of the watershed, respectively. <br />The mean annual precipitation in the Lick Creek drainage basin is 42.2 inches. Approximately 53% of the <br />basin has a canopy cover that consists primarily of Ponderosa Pine (at lower elevations) and Interior <br />Douglass Fir vegetation zones (USGS 2018). These vegetation zones are impacted by recurrent fires, <br />where recent fires have burned a significant portion of the Lick Creek Basin (WSDNR, 2018). Over 50% of <br />the total watershed area was burned in the 2017 Jolly Mountain Fire and about 10% had been previously <br />burned in the 2005 Lick Creek Fire. Impacts from the recurrent fires and the dense network of forest <br />roads in the watershed and has potential to increase runoff, landslide frequency and sediment yield. <br />North Fork Teanaway Road - Lick Creek Fish Passage Enhancement Project 7 <br />Flood Rise Analysis — Maintaining Creek Flows Along Teanaway Road <br />
