Upper Rose Bar Enhancement Project
The Rose Bar project site is located 9 river miles below Englebright dam on land recently acquired by the Yuba Water agency. The purpose of this project is to create and enhance two spawning riffles for Chinook salmon and steelhead. Englebright Dam prevents gravels from moving downstream from upper portions of the watershed. In the Goldfields, the piles of hydraulic mining debris provide the gravel sizes necessary for spawning. However, because Rose Bar is so close to Englebright Dam which traps downstream movement of gravel, as the Yuba River erodes spawning gravel, there is no source of gravel to replace it. . The main objective of this project is to add spawning sized gravels to the riverbed from locally sourced material. We will be sourcing the necessary gravel from hydraulic mine tailings in the uplands above the project and at the same time stabilizing the hillslope which will decrease the amount of mercury delivered to the Yuba River during rain events. The total area of the project is about 43 acres with about 5 acres of new spawning habitat.
The primary objectives of the Proposed Project are:
1) Increase the amount of high-quality spawning habitat by modifying hydraulic (i.e., depth and velocity) and substrate conditions to within the ranges preferred by Chinook salmon and steelhead during typical spawning periods.
2) Create a design that mimics natural morphological features (e.g., riffle, pool) that would not erode significantly through typical non-flood control related operations.
3) Reduce bank erosion in the gully that may be contributing mercury contaminated soil to the Yuba River.

The South Yuba is running fast, high, and cold right now. With unregulated flows for this "river season" it is even more important to stay alert, stay out, and stay alive.

    The camera went right on that rock where there's an underwater tunnel where the kid drowned when it got clogged with logs and he could not swim back up against the current I hope they Dynamite that rock too many people have been drowning there

    The dam that we see at the end of the video is impassable for fish and must retain a lot of sediment... not great for the river's biodiversity. Otherwise, very beautiful region and images. Thank you for sharing.

    We grew up on the river and camp along it's shores above Edwards. We were always clean and picked up after others. Last i heard you could still camp above Edwards and be free and one with the river. A lot of times these groups with good intentions run it for our local community.I'm 69 years old and my kids learn to swim and camp there, they've seen the restrictions that have destroyed our way of life. They've noticed how south fork has lost so many freedoms since becoming a State Park. When it became a State Park all the NO SIGNS came up , we hated seeing this , but we also know theres to many people. If you want to save our community and quality of our lives stop subdivisions.

    The Spanish named the river the Yuba because of the wild grapes that grow along it's shores in it's lower portion.

      Hey Carl, while that notion has been talked about for years, we've since learned that the river's name actually more likely comes from the local tribe, the Nisenan, and their word for "waterway," 'uba seo.' It is spelled in early records as "Yubu" and applied to the river by 1844. Be sure to drop by the Uba Seo gallery in Nevada City to learn more about the Nisenan and their presence here far before the Spanish :)

    I've been camping and 4 wheeling up there since the 70's.. Walking the river in the summer with my sister we saw home made rafts that were stuck 8' up in the snag trees. Inner tubes strapped to planks etc. What a ride those dudes must have had back in the day.

    Ten years ago when the TDLT bought the property the Summit Valley consisted of a rich mix of habitats. There was a lacustrine (lake) habitat with rainbow and brown trout that fed a local population of Osprey, White Pelicans, Kingfishers and Bald Eagles in the summer. The lake also served as a stopping off point for water fowl and Sandhill Cranes on the Pacific flyway. Water fowl such as Mergansers, Canada Geese, Mallards and Grebes nested in the surrounding willow wetlands. A very large population of Western Toads spawned in the shallow waters of the lake every spring. In the wetlands surrounding the lake songbirds and water fowl nested. A beaver family had built a lodge and harvested the willows in the surrounding wetlands. There was no need for "analogs". The South Yuba River meandered through the Valley and provided Riparian habitat for breeding fish and frogs. The east end of the Valley was a seasonal wet/dry meadow that supported a multitude of wildflowers and grasses/sedges. Now, thanks to TDLT and the Forest Service, the Lacustrine and Riparian habitats have been all but obliterated with all the wildlife species that inhabited them. The Valley is now left with only the single seasonal wet/dry meadow habitat which is being encroached on by surrounding Lodgepole pines. And somehow all of this habitat destruction is supposed to make the Valley more "biodiverse" and "restored".

    Why aren't nanny's on the river giving tickets to the filth coming there? Scared? Maybe let it dry up and make a tent community for losers of CA? Or let it burn? So many options and one day all will know what they did for fake green.

    Dredging removes harmful mercury and other heavy metals how about working with small scale miners and prospectors. We take pride in our lands just as much if not more than most, We cherish this hobby and past time,together we can clean it up. Do not punish good deeds.
