Fish passage project in the Sunol Valley moves toward finish line by end of year
Major construction on the Sunol Valley Fish Passage Project, an effort intended to restore fish passage and ecological function in the upper Alameda Creek, is expected to be completed this year. The project involves the removal of an existing Sunol Valley concrete erosion-control mat, which is protecting a 36-inch pipeline, L303, owned and operated by Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E). … Removal of this final major barrier in the mainstem Alameda Creek was driven by decades of work by the Alameda Creek Alliance and the Alameda Creek Fisheries Restoration Workgroup to complete 16 other fish-passage projects.
