"This data layer represents locations of existing and potential barriers to salmonid migration in the Russian River watershed. Features from the original source data (see Originator information) were selected based on their spatial location within the Russian River watershed in Sonoma and Mendocino counties in California (the study area boundary of the Russian River Watershed Adaptive Management Plan project). This metadata file incorporates new information to the metadata of the original source data. This new information is indicated in quotation marks." The Passage Assessment Database shapefile includes locations of existing and potential barriers to salmonid migration in California streams with basic information about each record.
"This data layer was edited from its original source data set for inclusion in the Russian River Watershed Adaptive Management Plan (RRWAMP) and RRWAMP Baseline Watershed Assessment project. The intended use of this data layer in this project is to examine landscape or human factors to promote ecological health and sustainability within the Russian River watershed." The Passage Assessment Database (PAD) is an ongoing inventory of known and potential barriers to anadromous fish in California. It compiles currently available fish passage information from more than 100 data sources, and allows past and future barrier assessments to be standardized and stored in one place. The inventory is to be used to identify barriers suitable for removal or modification to restore spawning and riparian habitat for salmon and steelhead, and to enhance aquatic and riparian habitat. The PAD is intended to be compatible with a variety of other data sets related to anadromous fish issues. All PAD records are saved with geographic location information. This file can be used to represent the known and potential barriers on maps or to provide latitude/longitude coordinates. Each barrier record is indexed to the 24k high-resolution NHD allowing the user to combine the PAD with other fisheries data tied to the same hydrography. For a more detailed description of the digitizing process refer to the PAD Methodology. A module containing information specific to the DFG Fish Screen and Fish Passage Program has been added. The Fish Screen and Fish Passage Program (FSFPP) conducts inventories of all screened and unscreened diversions and fish passage problems via site visits; it gathers information on the size and number of diversions at each site and presence of existing fish protective facilities. The FSFPP database is fairly comprehesive for the Central Valley streams (Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers systems) and complements PAD that focuses mainly on California's coastal region. A module specific to water rights obtained from the State Water Resource Control Board has been also added to the PAD. The Water Rights Module contains locations of water rights (WR) in coastal watersheds, WR application number and permit issue date, maximum permitted direct diversion and storage rates and season of operation. For PAD records that have additional details regarding passage issues specific to certain salmonid and life stages and species, a Fish Barrier Module was developed. Mostly for road culverts assessed by FishXing software, information is available to determine whether the culvert blocks upstream passage for adult and for juvenile fish. In addition, an overlay with observation-based distribution data provided two data fields that identify if a barrier is located on a stream with positive observation of coho or steelhead. Please refer for the PAD Methodology document for additional details about specific PAD data categories.

The Passage Assessment Database was compiled using information about fish passage from a large number of sources. These dataset were originally created for a number of different purposes, from general stream habitat surveys to rigorous assessments of fish barriers. The quality of the data in the PAD will vary depending on the data source, including different amounts of detail and varying degrees of accuracy in location descriptions.

"This data layer was created for the Russian River Watershed Adaptive Management Plan (RRWAMP) and RRWAMP Baseline Watershed Assessment project through minor editing to the original source data. Data were clipped to the project study area boundary (rr_watershed_bndy.shp) and projected using ESRI's ArcGIS GeoProcessing tools; and renamed to the current file name."

Passage Assessment Database
Type of the in-stream structure or the site. There are 14 structure types in the PAD. Please refer to PAD Methodology for details on structure/site types.
Passage Assessment Database
Dam: A barrier built across a stream or river to obstruct the flow of water. Includes debris, earth, rock, flashboard, drop structure, arch, weir, gravity, wing gabion, etc. Road crossing: A structure crossing a creek or stream that allows water underneath or over the road. Includes culvert, bridge, low-flow, etc. Utility crossing: Some type of utility line, water, gas, etc. that crosses a creek or stream and impedes passage of fish. Diversion: A place where the flow of water has been diverted from one course to another or directed in order to control the drainage from a section of ground. Includes screened and unscreened. Flood control channel: Any partially or completely excavated channel intended to convey above-normal discharges. Grade control: Stabilizing weirs constructed in the streambed to prevent lowering of the channel bottom. This includes bedrock chutes. Flow measurement weir: A notch or depression in a levee, dam, embankment or other barrier across or bordering a stream, through which the flow of water is measured or regulated. Gravel/borrow pits: Excavated area where materials have been removed for use as fill elsewhere. Fish passage facility: Provide fish passage past obstructions that would otherwise prevent or hinder their upstream progress. Fishways include Step-and-pool, Denil ladders, and Alaskan steep-pass types. Non-structural: Anything naturally occurring that restrains or obstructs passage. Includes waterfall, grade, temperature, subterranean flows, landslide, velocity, etc. Tidegate: A structure at a stream ocean mouth that limits the tidal flow within the estuary.

Passage status of the in-stream structure. The status of a structure or a site refers to the degree to which it is impassable. The PAD has eight categories of passage status. Please refer to PAD Methodology for explanation of passage status categories used.
Passage Assessment Database
Total = A complete barrier to fish passage for all anadromous species at all life stages at all times of year. Partial = Only a barrier to certain species or life stages. Temporal = Only a barrier at certain times of year. Temporal and partial = Only a barrier to certain species or life stages and only at certain times of year. Temporal and total = Total barrier only at certain times of year. Not a barrier = Structure/site has been determined not to be a barrier to any species or life stages, and is passable year-round. Structure may not still be in existence = Data were obtained from an old dataset, and are likely to have been removed or washed away. Unknown = Dataset had no information about barrier status.
