Trinity River watchers -

There have been reports that Trinity River Restoration Program (TRRP)
construction at the Deep Gulch-Sheridan Creek
Project impacted water quality dramatically on August 10, 2017. TRRP
sediment impacts on that date were minimal.

Dirt in the river resulted from a slide/erosion in the Big French Creek
drainage, probably a local thunder storm in the mountains eroded ground
where a fire had recently burned.

Below is a photo taken at the Big French Creek – Trinity River confluence
