Small forestry operations within the Ellis Creek and Steward Creek watersheds are contracted by the Penticton Forest District Small Business Forest Enterprise Program (SBFEP). The objectives of this project were to: - Produce 1:20,000 scale maps that present deGailed terrain, terrain stability, likelihood of landslide-induced debris enrering streams, soil erosion potential, and sediment delivery potential ofi the Ellis Creek and Steward Creek watersheds based on roughly 1:15,000 !scale photos; - Carry out field checking at TSIL C over the ~ntire study area; and - Prepare a report that describes how the i maps were made, surficial materials present, physiography of the area, and terrain hazards present, with recommendations regarding forest harvesting and land management. terrain stability, geomorphology, landslide, erosion, surficial geology |
