Johnson Creek Watershed Restoration Project Census

Here you can quickly and easily view completed and underway restoration projects within the Johnson Creek Watershed. Zoom into project locations on a map, and click on each detail page to learn more and connect. Purple dots show projects entered by the Council and partners.

Johnson Creek flows through five cities and two counties where many non-profits, businesses, and government organizations are working to enhance habitat for fish and wildlife, improve water quality, and address urban flooding. Links to these restoration partners are listed to the right.

This site is a living update to the Johnson Creek Watershed Action Plan; An Adaptive Approach. Published in 2002, the Action Plan listed and prioritized future restoration, education, and monitoring projects. We are happy to report that many of these prioritized projects have been accomplished and are detailed on this website.
