The tidal connection between the Columbia River and Blind Slough area was restored through the breaching of dikes, replacement and/or installation of culverts, installation of water control devices, and channel enhancement. Pre- and post-project monitoring will determine project effectiveness in water quality improvement of Blind Slough's channel network, as well as increased fish access to spawning and off-channel rearing habitat for salmonid species.
