The Foster Creek Conservation District issued a determination of nonsignficance (DNS) under the State Environmental Policy Act Rules (Chapter 197-11 WAC) for the West Foster Creek Headcut Stabilization Project proposed by the Foster Creek Conservation District. The project will stabilize a headcut on West Foster Creek at approximately 7 miles south of Bridgeport to protect an upstream wetland and reduce sediment loading into Foster Creek and on to the Columbia River.  After review of a completed environmental checklist and other information on file with the Conservation District, the Foster Creek Conservation District has determined this proposal will not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment. 

Copies of the determination of nonsignficance (DNS) and the Environmental Checklist are available here:
