Indianpoint Creek Tributary to Horsefly River Francois Lake Middle River Middle River Middle River Takla Lake Bowron River Bowron River Description Log jams in creek prevent salmon ascending lakes above which were used for spawning before 1913. One serious log jam and num- erous minor ones. Small run of sockeye and spawn in river. Large areas suita- ble for spawning in upper portion of stream. Impassable log jams 3 miles above mouth. Good spawn- ing stream and would in- crease the spawning area available. Impassable log jams 3 to 4 miles above mouth. Im- portant spawning stream of this district. Log jams and brush block stream % mile from mouth. Formerly good spawning creek but only remnant of former run remains. Numerous log jams cause con- stant shifting of channel. Formerly excellent spawn- ing stream but now nearly void of fish. Beaver dam at mouth entirely blocks creek to salmon. This stream formerly sup- ported over 2/3 of the Bow- ron run. Four beaver dams on creek and spawning tributaries. Formerly important spawn- ing and nursery area. No sockeye can enter creek at present. Stream Location of Obstruction 30. Nicola River 31. Adams River Dam at outlet of Nicola Lake. Dam at outlet of Adams Lake. 32. Louis Creek Dam on creek forC. N. R. water supply and irrigation. 33. Barriere River 34. Lemieux Creek Hydro-electric project located ten miles above mouth. Low Irrigation dam on creek 2 milea above mouth. Description The irrigation dam has a poorly designed fishway and an unscreened diversion channel just above the dam. This was formerly good salmon spawning area. The old sluice dam, not in use at present, has an inade- quate fishway. The dam is in poor repair and structure is rotten. Fishway in dam closed during salmon run. Salmon drop back into irrigation ditches and die unspawned. Many fry are lost in ditches. Damisl2tol feethigh. Fish- way is very poor and usually dry during salmon run. This was formerly a good sockeye spawning area. Flume to turbines is un- screened. Dam is 32 in. high with no fishway installed and during low water is a complete bar- rier to salmon migration. Unscreened diversion above damL Remedial measures Install satisfactory fish- way and revolving screen on diversion channel. Remove dam or install efficient fishways. Install revolving screens on diversions and have sufficient water guar- anteed during salmon runs for proper opera- tion of fishways. Construct new fishpass over dam and screen turbine intake Construct flshway in dam and install revolv- ing screen on diversion. 1622 Remedial measures Remove log jams and improve channel for salmon migration.
