RESULTS PART II: Summary of unimpaired streams 



This section contains five streams, which at this time, are not considered fisheries impaired 

 and as such were not considered for restoration priority. All but Lodgepole Creek are past project 

 streams with problems corrected thereby eliminating them from further consideration as impaired.

Dry Creek is a tributary to Rock Creek in the North Fork of the Blackfoot River watershed. 

 It flows through public (National Forest) land except for the lower-most portion of stream. We 

 considered Dry Creek a non-impaired stream due to recent grazing management changes on 

 private land, which will address the only known fisheries-impairment to this stream. Dry Creek 

 supports bull trout rearing, fluvial WSCT and resident brook trout.

Grentier Spring Creek is a spring-fed tributary to the upper Blackfoot River, located on 

 private land. Grentier Spring Creek was the focus of extensive restoration over the past several 

 years including channel reconstruction, habitat restoration and riparian land management 

 changes. Grentier Spring Creek supports low densities of bull trout and fluvial WSCT as well as 

 brown trout and brook trout, giving rise to a multi-species sport fishery value to the Blackfoot 

 River. Because of restoration efforts, it now has low potential water quality benefits to the 

 Blackfoot River. No fisheries impairments are present at this time.
