Russian River Creek Stewardship Monitoring and Assessment Summary Report 1998-2004 Russian River Creek Stewardship Monitoring and Assessment Summary Report 1998-2004. The Sotoyome Resource Conservation District in partnership with Laurel Marcus and Associates and Dennis Jackson began a creek stewardship program for tributary streams in the Russian River watershed in 1998. To date, six reports have summarized the program methods and protocols, watershed assessments, monitoring results and projects.


Completed stream bank stabilization with willow emergence March 2008 Spring Creek Emergency Repairs. The Sotoyome RCD acted as local sponsor for project management and lead agency on the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and permitting necessary for securing the home and property of a family who live on an urbanized reach of Spring Creek in Santa Rosa. High water flows from the New Year's Storm of 2005-06 and recent upstream development, combined with confined stream morphology, caused significant scouring and eventual collapse of soils adjacent to their residence. Sotoyome RCD worked with a local contractor to implement stream bank construction measures needed to secure the streambank and the family home.
