Comments: This crossing (CMP, dia = 4′) is a complete barrier to passage on Bear Creek under Kleinsmith Road. Though it has a fairly long length and is undersized compared to the average bankfull channel width, the primary cause of blockage to passage is a boulder strengthened wood barrier at the inlet that creates a ponding feature for the neighbor’s landscaping. Removal of this barricade would facilitate fish passage, dropping this crossings priority ranking considerably.
