Description
Carbondale River, a tributary to the Castle River, originates in the newly designated Castle Provincial Park and flows into the Municipal District of Pincher Creek No. 9. The entire Carbondale River sub-basin was identified as a potential candidate for the Fisheries Habitat Enhancement and Sustainability (FISHES) Program by Regional Fisheries Management staff. Widespread habitat degradation, loss of riparian function and increased sediment inputs, exacerbated by the 2014 flood, are significant issues for fish in this creek. This report provides information regarding project goals and objectives, and the current status of the project as of January 2018.
