Grant Description

The goal of this Agreement is to promote completion of whole watershed restoration within priority river basins, securing core habitats for recovery of important at-risk fish stocks in Oregon and Washington. Together the partners first identify Priority Basins and Focus Watersheds in the Pacific Northwest that have the highest ecological values and potential responsiveness to restoration efforts. The partnership provides funding for projects in these areas that aim to restore and protect major ecological functions by removing risk factors and restoring damaged habitat-forming processes in the watershed. Once the work of restoring major ecological processes is completed within an individual Focus Watershed, restoration efforts and funding will then be concentrated on other areas; thus the geographic focus will change over time.
