Restoration

Mid-Columbia Fisheries implements restoration projects across a large geographical extent, a range of projects sizes, and utilizes a variety of funding sources and partner collaboration. Our projects are rooted in science, vetted by numerous entities and align with watershed priorities for salmon recovery. Projects are separated by:

Upper Yakima Basin (Yakima and all tributaries above Ellensburg)  

Middle Yakima (Naches, Ahtanum, Gap-Gap) 

Lower Yakima (Union Gap to Mouth) 

Columbia River Gorge (Klickitat, Wind, White Salmon)
