Collaborating with Partners across the North Santiam River Basin

We are involved in collaborative initiatives with many partners to facilitate on-the-ground restoration: planting natives to enhance wetlands and streams, creating in-stream habitat, improving fish passage, controlling invasive weeds, and monitoring water quality.

Restoring and Protecting the North Santiam

From improving fish habitat to enhancing water quality and supporting wildfire recovery, our projects are rooted in science and driven by community collaboration. Explore how we’re making a real difference in the health of the watershed—one project at a time.
