Steelhead Habitat Restoration

Steelhead Habitat Restoration in the Potlatch River: Part 2- Implementation

idfg-jbruns

The Potlatch River basin in north-central Idaho is home to an endangered population of wild steelhead. Due to a variety of factors, including historic land use practices, wild steelhead numbers in the Potlatch River have been declining. Idaho Fish and Game and partner organizations have been conducting large-scale restoration work in the Potlatch basin. 

In Part 1 of the video series, we provided an overview of this restoration program. Part 2 of the series explains the steps involved in developing a project and seeing it all the way through construction. Check out the video below for more details!
