The Copeland Creek Monitoring summary report was part of a larger report entitled the RUSSIAN RIVER CREEK STEWARDSHIP PROGRAM 2005-2006 MONITORING SUMMARY REPORT. The Sotoyome Resource Conservation District (SRCD) has been implementing the Russian River Creek Stewardship Program (RRCSP) in selected Russian River tributaries since 1998. Through the RRCSP, current monitoring and restoration activities have been focused on Austin, Fife, Hobson, Copeland, upper Mark West, and Maacama Creeks and their significant tributaries. This report summarizes the monitoring data that has been collected in Copeland Creek under the RRCSP in 2005 and 2006, as well as recommendations for and preliminary development of restoration projects and actions to improve water quality and enhance riparian and aquatic habitats in the Russian River watershed.
