This Central Valley Project grant is dedicated to protecting, restoring, and enhancing critical salmonid habitats across California’s Central Valley and Trinity River basins. Years of water resources development and human activities have severely diminished and altered essential habitats for Fall Run, Spring Run, and Winter Run Chinook salmon, along with Steelhead Trout. Key issues include reduced spawning gravel, insufficient rearing areas, and infrastructure that impedes fish passage and increases predation. This funding specifically aims to address the Central Valley Project’s impacts on fish and wildlife, improve operational flexibility, and balance competing demands for water, ultimately supporting the recovery and sustainability of these vulnerable fish populations.

| Description: | The rivers of the Central Valley of California support populations of Fall Run Chinook, Spring Run Chinook, and Winter Run Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and Steelhead Trout (O. Mykiss). Water resources development, stream channel manipulations, and other anthropogenic actions have reduced and modified historical salmonid habitats. Gravel is regularly transported from spawning sites on the river and there is less utilizable rearing habitat. Infrastructure entrains juveniles, impairs passage, and increases susceptibility to predation.Relevant purposes of the Central Valley Project Improvement Act (CVPIA) include:To protect, restore, and enhance fish, wildlife, and associated habitats in the Central Valley and Trinity River basins of California;To address impacts of the Central Valley Project (CVP) on fish, wildlife and associated habitats;To improve the operational flexibility of the CVP;To achieve a reasonable balance among competing demands for use of CVP water, including the requirements of fish and wildlife, agricultural, municipal and industrial and power contractors. |
