Project summaries
West Branch Little Spokane River
The majority
of the West Branch of the Little Spokane River
is located in Pend Oreille County, draining 66,560
acres. The portion in Spokane County drains Eloika Lake
to
the south and enters the Little Spokane River just west of
Milan Elk Road near Riverside, Washington.
A large portion
of the West Branch Little Spokane River is in
PFC. Approximately 74 percent is determined to be in PFC
and 26 percent is in FAR condition. No reaches are
hydrologically nonfunctional. The reaches in FAR condition
are generally due to either rural residential lawns that
extend
down to the water’s edge or poorly managed livestock
grazing.
