WIN-WIN Improvements provide safe fish passage, better habitat, and a steady supply of municipal drinking water year-round Region 1 : North Coast Necanicum River, Fish Passage Improvement Using collaborative approach, City of Seaside, Necanicum Watershed Council, ODFW, NOAA, USFW & Longview Timber crafted a multi-faceted solution. Results: Fish access 3 miles of spawning & rearing habitat Improved infrastructure reduces impacts to instream flow Screens protect migrating fish

Coquille River, Bandon Marsh & Riparian Habitat Restoration Region 2 : Southwest Oregon

Region 3: Willamette Basin Calapooia River, Dam Removal

Whychus Creek, Meadow Preserve Restoration Region 4: Central Oregon

Sage Grouse Habitat/Juniper Encroachment Region 5: Eastern Oregon

Region 6: Mid Columbia Meacham Creek, Floodplain Restoration Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation and the United States Forest Service combined efforts to restore Meacham Creek to recover important habitat processes and food sustainability. It is a story of working together toward common objectives, engineering creative solutions, and overcoming complex challenges. The purpose was to restore habitat for fish species, and to meet the First Foods mission of the Tribes. By restoring channel morphology and ecological processes, the Project achieved the Umatilla River Vision of an ecologically functional and healthy river system that supports the continued natural production of First Foods and their utilization by the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation community.
