Eagle Valley Soil And Water Conservation District

Eagle Valley Soil And Water Conservation District is a U.S. local government entity registered in SAM.gov since 2007, specializing in environmental conservation and habitat restoration projects. While specific details about its organizational structure are not provided, the district appears to focus on watershed management, fish habitat preservation, and ecological restoration initiatives. As a registered government entity, Eagle Valley Soil And Water Conservation District has demonstrated a consistent capability to receive and successfully execute federal grant awards, particularly in the environmental conservation sector.

The district has primarily received federal grant awards from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, specifically through the National Fish Passage Program, focusing on critical fish habitat restoration in Oregon. Recent federal grant awards totaling $342,000 have supported comprehensive fish passage restoration projects in the East Pine Creek watershed, targeting critical habitat for threatened bull trout and redband trout. These projects involve removing fish passage barriers, designing and constructing engineered riffle structures, implementing fish screens, and consolidating irrigation diversions to improve aquatic ecosystem connectivity. The grants, which are cooperative agreements and project grants, involve collaboration with partners such as Idaho Power Company and align with broader conservation goals outlined in the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Bull Trout Recovery Plan. The district's work specifically addresses connectivity impairments in migratory corridors, with projects strategically located in high-priority core areas identified for bull trout recovery efforts.
