The Arroyo Grande Creek Watershed Management Plan was funded by California Department of Fish and Game Fisheries Restoration Grant Program. The plan describes the condition of the creek, identifies critical issues and limiting factors affecting Steelhead in the watershed, and poses a set of recommendations to address the issues. The stakeholder driven plan includes information on watershed history, Steelhead trout data, habitat and channel typing, sediment and erosion conditions, and flow/dam releases. Originally completed in 2005 an update was produced in 2009 to include the results of the Arroyo Grande Creek Steelhead Distribution and Abundance Survey (2008).
