Squamish River Watershed Society, in partnership with Squamish Nation and Fisheries and Oceans Canada, is continuing efforts to restore anadromous passage to spawning grounds in the upper Elaho River. This work involves removing any additional obstructions at previously cleared sites and implementing innovative monitoring techniques to assess impact. This phase of the project supports five jobs.

Living Lakes Canada partnered with the Columbia Wetlands Stewardship Partners to conduct site investigations on select wetlands in the Upper Columbia River and adjacent Columbia Wetlands to identify vulnerable areas in need of restoration work. Activities included analyzing shallow groundwater levels, collecting morphologic and meteorological data, surveying beaver abundance, and wetlands water level and temperature monitoring at over 40 sites. This project supports six jobs. (Photo: Living Lakes Canada)
