The Bureau of Reclamation intends to establish a Cooperative Agreement with the Union Soil & Water Conservation District (USWCD). This agreement tasks USWCD with providing critical management, coordination, and planning activities for three vital habitat improvement projects within the Grande Ronde Subbasin. The primary objective is to restore fish passage and enhance habitat complexity in tributaries, directly benefiting anadromous fisheries. Expected outcomes include improved access to spawning and rearing grounds, reduced fish entrainment, increased streamflow, and overall improved habitat quantity and quality. These enhancements are crucial for native endangered species such as spring Chinook salmon, steelhead trout, and bull trout.
