Habitat Restoration project continues at Ash
Meadows National Wildlife Refuge -
Habitat restoration continues at Ash Meadows National
Wildlife Refuge to improve spring and stream habitats for
endangered species. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
and the Bureau of Reclamation's Grand Canyon Area
Office will be working at
Point ofRocks on January 15 I ly i
-17and22-24. Theareawill tt The spring outflow is
remain open to visitation.
Restoration work began current n a concrete
last September at Point of
Rockswhenman-madeponds irrigation ditch "
were filled in to allow spring ,
streams to recreate their natu-
ral channels. The project continues at King's Spring,
where heavy equipment is being used to partially fill the
spring pool, returning it to its pre-disturbance size of a
small, crescent-shaped spring pool. The spring outflow is
currently in a concrete irrigation ditch. A new channel is
being excavated to recreate the natural course of the
stream. These changes will provide better habitat for
endangered Ash Meadows Pupfish and Speckled Dace,
three rare plants and other native wildlife. The area will
appear to be damaged for the
first year or so, but will re-
cover as native vegetation
grows back.
The Service is mandated
by Congress to protect and
restore habitat for endangered
species. Ash Meadows NWR
was established in 1984 to
protect habitat for 24 plants and animals found nowhere else
on earth. This project will also restore part of an unusual
wetland oasis in the Mojave Desert for all people to enjoy.
