SRP Project

DESCRIPTION

This project completed a comprehensive inventory of the riparian restoration, fish screening, and aquatic habitat needs of the lower Yakima River basin. The Benton Conservation District (BCD) facilitated input from interested parties and natural resource agencies to design a comprehensive inventory through the Lower Yakima River Technical Advisory Group (LYRTAG). The LYRTAG aided in prioritizing potential projects, based on technical, financial and political feasibility and anticipated benefit to salmon and people. The BCD released a report summarizing the findings of the lower Yakima River Assessment. This report includes a list of high priority actions specific to improving the lower Yakima River for salmonid migration and habitat.
