  "projectDescription": "The Elwha River Floodplain Restoration project was a series of restoration actions within the lower Elwha River Watershed to improve over 82 acres of in-stream and floodplain habitat. This project benefited Puget Sound Chinook salmon and Puget Sound Steelhead, both listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. The project was designed to complement the removal of two hydroelectric dams on the Elwha River that restored access for migratory fish throughout the watershed.  The Elwha River is the largest tributary draining into the Strait of Juan de Fuca and historically the largest producer of salmon in the region making its restoration critical for the recovery of these species.Floodplain restoration actions included construction of engineered log jams; culvert and push-up dike removals; invasive species removal; and planting of native species within the lower Elwha River.",
