The Bureau of Reclamation awarded the Henry's Fork Foundation, a non-profit watershed conservation organization, a $628,750 Project Grant under the Applied Science Grants program (CFDA 15.557) to improve fisheries in the Snake River Basin. The funding will support the development of new data infrastructure and expansion of hydrologic modeling of the South Fork Snake River. This will provide stakeholders and managers with the data, models, and short-term streamflow forecasts needed to more precisely manage storage reservoirs and enhance water supply reliability, operational flexibility, and overall water management in the region. The project is expected to be completed by September 30, 2026.
