Dabob Bay NAP Restoration Phase 1 (2008)
- Status
- Funded in 2009
The Washington Department of Natural Resources will use this grant to restore the Dabob Bay Natural Area Preserve, north of Quilcene, on Hood Canal. Work will include developing a restoration plan for all 9 acres, controlling invasive plants, removing fill, establishing a holding nursery for the understory vegetation, and replanting 4 acres. Nine acres within the preserve were cleared for development by the previous owner and are overgrown with invasive plants and domestic grasses. The preserve protects high quality coastal sand spits, estuary habitats, and forests. (08-1383)
Location
The site is situated about four miles ne of Quilcene and four miles south of state HWY 104- Quilecene -Chimacum Road. From the Quilecene-Chimacum road, proceed east on Dabob Road about two miles to the intersection of Dabob Post Office Rd. Turn south, make the first immediate right turn onto Carl Johnson Road. Follow this road for about a mile until you see a private road on your right. The northern restoration site will be on your left. Continue past that until you see a pull out on the right, drive a little bit farther until you see a flatten area overlooking the spits on your left right before the road drops down the hill towards the creek.
