The objectives of the Estuary Adaptive Management Program are to enhance rearing habitat for juvenile salmonids (to comply with requirements of the Russian River Biological Opinion), particularly steelhead, and managing estuary water levels to minimize flood hazard. The proposed project includes the following elements: continuing the historical practice of artificially breaching the barrier beach (closed sandbar) and adaptive management of water levels during the lagoon management period (May 15 to October 15).
