Community Tours of the North Habitat Construction at Brightwater
The northern 43 acres of the Brightwater site on State Route 9 is being restored as an enhanced salmon habitat and reforestation area. This element of Brightwater mitigation is nearly complete after 8 months of construction. Visitors will be provided with a tour of the trails, and see native plant species, rebuilt stream corridors and emerging wetland habitat.
Sponsor Metro King County
Location Brightwater Treatment Site
Date Saturday April 28
Time Tour guides will escort groups at 9 a.m., 10 a.m., 11 a.m. and noon
Notes The tour takes a little over one hour and requires walking on unpaved paths. The habitat site is located within a construction site, so participants must sign liability waivers and wear appropriate clothing including sturdy, closed-toe shoes. Minors must be accompanied by an adult and the trails are not suitable for strollers. To arrange reasonable accomodation for people with disabilities, contact Rachael Dillman.
