The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) awarded a $100,000 Cooperative Agreement under the Partners for Fish and Wildlife program (CFDA 15.631) to the Lomakatsi Restoration Project, a non-profit organization based in Oregon. This funding will support two key initiatives: Provide restoration support to private landowners in the Little Butte Upper Rogue Oak Initiative focus area, in cooperation with the Klamath-Siskiyou Oak Network. This will assist landowners with planning to leverage other funding to increase fire resilience, address fuel loads, and improve water quality, wildlife habitat, and reduce wildfire risk. Support the West Bear-Southern Oregon All-Lands Restoration Project by completing a minimum of 7,500 acres of forest resiliency treatments on private lands in the Talent-Phoenix-Medford wildland-urban interface and adjacent areas. Lomakatsi will recruit landowners, design treatment plans, conduct inventories, and oversee ecological restoration and fuels reduction activities. The 5-year Cooperative Agreement commenced on October 1, 2024.
