The repository builds an interactive report documenting planning, fish passage assessments and habitat confirmation assessments at road-stream crossings within the Bulkley River and Morice River watershed groups in the summer/fall of 2021. The report will also provide planning inputs for fish passage/fisheries assessments as well as restoration activities in both watersheds in coming years.

Reporting was generated with bookdown [@bookdown2016] from Rmarkdown [@R-rmarkdown] with primarily R and SQL scripts. The R package fpr contains many specialized custom functions related to the work. In addition to numerous spatial layers sourced through the BC Data Catalogue then stored and queried in a local postgresql and sqlite databases data inputs for this project include:

• Populated Fish Data Submission Spreadsheet Template - V 2.0, January 20, 2020

• Populated pscis_assessment_template_v24.xls

• bcfishpass outputs.

• Custom CSV file detailing Phase 2 site:

  • priority level for proceeding to design for replacement
  • length of survey upstream and downstream
  • a conservative estimate of the linear length of mainstem habitat potentially available upstream of the crossing
  • fish species confirmed as present upstream of the crossing

• GPS tracks from field surveys.

• Photos and photo metadata
