The council meets every third Tuesday of the month at 6pm.

The vast grasslands, canyons, and forests of the North Fork John Day watershed support some of the strongest native spring Chinook and steelhead runs in the Columbia Basin and the small ranching and logging communities that are home to the people who live there. It is a diverse Council that is proud to join together in support of human and natural communities. The Council focuses on working together productively at a local level to identify and implement win-win conservation projects.  Over the last 2 1/2 years, they have worked on 32 projects, including 10 irrigation diversion improvements, 11 grazing system improvement projects, five  weed control projects, three channel restoration projects, one irrigation efficiency project, one road improvement project, and one juniper removal project.  Of these, 26 are on private lands, four are with grazing permittees on federal lands, and one is on County land.
