2. Restoration Site Prioritization Analysis Pilot Coarse Filters: Glen Ellen to Sonoma Creek headwaters SSA sub-watersheds Areas of observed salmonid presence Instream habitat quality Reach Filter: Long-term sediment supply (cubic ft / linear ft)

3. Site Selection GIS Analysis Observed salmonid presence Long-term Sediment Production (cubic ft / linear ft) Sediment production by sub-watershed (SSA) Aquatic Habitat Impact by Sub-Watershed Accessibility / Restoration Amenability

4. Site Selection Inputs Aquatic Habitat Impact (CDFG habitat survey data summarized by reach and ranked by NOAA Fisheries criteria for impact) Observed salmonid presence (snorkel, electrofishing, habitat surveys) Sediment production by sub-watershed (Sediment Source Analysis 2006; RUSLE, roads, landslides, channel) Long-term sediment production by reach (Laurel Collins field work and model) Accessibility (Willing partners, stream stewards, public land)

5. Habitat Impact Score Calculation Canopy Cover Shelter Rating Frequency of Primary Pools % Agriculture by Sub-watershed % Impervious Surface per Sub-watershed Composite Habitat Score by Sub-watershed

6. Digitizing Historic Sediment Data Laurel Collins mylar overlays were scanned and geo-referenced into the GIS to match existing stream layer Stream Segments were split or joined to match Laurel’s “Station” lengths and attributed with station ID.

23. Vector data was rasterized and assigned numeric value for particular habitat value Values ranged from 1 – 4 for Poor, Fair, Good, Very Good Raster Calculator was used to average the values in stacked raster cells Output layer was returned to vector format to be overlayed with additional data layers Areas of higher impact with Salmonid Presence are locations that will have the greatest remediation value once restored.
