The purpose of the Ramblers Property Acquisition and Restoration Project # 12-1327 is to allow the Naches River to reoccupy old side channels by removal of man-made constrictions and related sediment accumulations upstream of Nelson Dam in Yakima, WA. This action is a component of a larger floodplain restoration project planned for the Naches River. Purchase of the selected properties is an important first step toward continued habitat development and floodplain connectivity at this location. Yakima County will acquire 2 parcels that comprise the island upstream of Nelson Dam. In addition, the County will construct a new channel and excavate accumulated coarse sediment from existing channels on the island so they are activated during mean annual flood events. The County planned to acquire two additional parcels, and remove 950 feet of private levee, but agreement could not be reached with the landowner. This project is intended to benefit Chinook and Coho salmon, as well as ESA listed
