Salmon Recovery Funding Board (SRFB) Grants

BCD was recently awarded two grants through the Salmon Recovery Funding Board. We are working with a voluntary technical advisory group to perform an assessment of the lower Yakima River and investigate the aquatic habitat needs, riparian restoration, fish screening needs, and beneficial uses of the lower Yakima River basin. It is the first step toward identifying the high priority actions in the lower Yakima River. Once key issues are identified, BCD will work with landowners and the community to implement projects that will have an anticipated benefit to both salmon and people.

If you own streamside property and are interested in ways you can help benefit our local salmon runs, or would like further information about our current research, please contact the BCD.
