The U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation has awarded a $816,723 Project Grant under the Aquatic Ecosystem Restoration Program (CFDA 15.580) to the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) and the Hood River Watershed Group (HRWG). The funding will be used to complete the study and design of five stream restoration projects across the East Fork Hood River, Neal Creek, and Baldwin Creek sub-watersheds in north-central Oregon. The projects aim to remove two fish passage barriers, restore at least 3.5 miles of fish habitat, improve wetland function, increase stream complexity, restore riparian habitat, and reconnect the floodplain to the main channel. These efforts will advance the recovery of endangered Lower-Columbia River salmon and steelhead. ODFW, the prime grantee, will partner with HRWG, a non-profit organization, to deliver the products and services under this grant award, which has an end date of September 30, 2026.
