Description
Scope/Content: Abstract: The Ventura River drains a watershed of approximately 228 square miles and flows south from the confluence of Matilija Creek and the North Fork Matilija Creek to the Pacific Ocean just west of the city of Ventura. The river historically hosted large runs of adult steelhead and continues to support both anadromous steelhead and coastal rainbow trout in headwater streams. Stoecker Ecological was contracted by Nautilus Environmental to assist with a feasibly analysis of proposed effluent re-use by the Ojai Valley Sanitary District (OVSD) and to perform a one-day survey of the project area and provide comments and a limited steelhead trout assessment for inclusion into the final report. The OVSD treatment plant discharge point on the lower Ventura River occurs approximately 5 miles upstream from the ocean and discharges approximately 2 million gallons per day. The project area stream reach occurs in federally listed critical habitat for endangered steelhead trout. This brief report is intended to provide a summary of steelhead use in the Ventura River, field survey observations, a discussion of anticipated project impacts, and specific comments on the draft report prepared by Nautilus Environmental, which I am contributing to now for the first time.
