The Council meets every second Tuesday of the month at 7pm at the Columbia County Extension in St. Helens, 505 North Columbia Highway.
The Conyers Creek Fish Barrier Removal Project was a real exercise in teamwork for the Lower Columbia River Council. Numerous partners were involved and a high degree of coordination between many entities was required. The end result was a marvelous structure that met the project goals and the experience, although challenging, was rewarding to all. The project involved the removal of four undersized culverts located at a single crossing. A 43-foot concrete arched culvert was installed at the site. The environmental benefits of the project are spawning and rearing habitat for salmonids (16 miles) and enhanced wetland diversity for local wildlife species.
