About the company
Columbia River Estuary Study Taskforce (CREST), a local government-owned council of governments registered in SAM.gov since 2007, specializes in environmental planning, habitat restoration, and stakeholder facilitation services for federal agencies. Based in Astoria, Oregon, the organization focuses primarily on ecological restoration, fish habitat connectivity, and environmental management projects in the Columbia River estuary region. CREST operates as a U.S. local government entity that provides technical expertise and project management services to federal agencies seeking to improve environmental infrastructure and ecosystem connectivity.
Through federal contract awards, CREST has consistently worked with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to provide stakeholder meeting organization, facilitation, and public outreach services related to the Mouth of the Columbia River federal navigation project. The contracts, which have ranged from $14,971.62 to $214,552.18, were competitively awarded without set-aside designations and classified under Administrative Management Consulting Services. These contracts have involved supporting the Lower Columbia Solutions Group, a multi-stakeholder work group focused on managing the Columbia River estuary, and have included services such as meeting facilitation, fish monitoring, and documentation of environmental management efforts.
CREST's federal grant awards demonstrate a robust portfolio of ecological restoration projects, primarily funded through agencies like the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, National Park Service, and National Resources Conservation Service. The grants, which range from $112,500 to $3,260,366, focus on critical habitat restoration initiatives such as fish passage barrier removal, tidal wetland reconnection, and ecosystem rehabilitation. Specific grant-funded projects include the Clear Creek Reconnection Project, which will remove fish passage barriers and restore spawning habitats for threatened salmon and steelhead species, the East Netul Tidal Restoration Project to enhance tidal connectivity in the Netul River floodplain, and collaborative efforts to restore aquatic connectivity in tidal wetland environments. These grants often involve partnerships with state and local agencies, and aim to directly benefit endangered species and improve ecological infrastructure in the Columbia River estuary region.
