Notes | Juvenile steelhead in Calf Creek display a "partial rearing life history." When stream levels drop, they migrate into the North Umpqua River. Instead of heading directly to the ocean, they may stay in the river for 1-2 years, before heading to sea. "This means that resource managers must not only be aware of potential impacts put upon them by management activities within the Calf Creek basin, but they must also be aware of factors influencing water quality and fish habitat in the North Umpqua River where the fish may reside for an important developmental portion of their lives. Therefore, management for Calf Creek steelhead includes management of' potential cumulative watershed effects of land management activities in the North Umpqua River basin above and below Calf Creek."
