The Council meets every third Tuesday of the month at 9am.
The Partnership engages in stream enhancement projects where they put logs and boulders in creeks to improve fish habitat. These projects range from one landowner up to three or four that stretch across many miles of stream. Projects are located throughout the Umpqua Basin, including private property and public lands. The Partnership also develops fish passage improvement projects to replace old, failing culverts with new large culverts or bridges. They lead the landowner through the winding path of design, permitting, grant writing, and contracting that culminates in a great project. Just remember - with fish habitat improvement, “If you build it, they will come.”
Project Planner Terry Luecker directs a log placement in the Umpqua Basin.
