2024 Knowledge Exchange Workshop

Lessons Learned in Salmon Habitat Restoration from Intensively Monitored Watersheds of the Pacific Northwest 

March 26, 2024 ~ 9:00am – 3:30pm PST

DFO and PSF are pleased to bring together lead scientists from Washington State to present results and share their experiences from 20+ years of habitat restoration and monitoring in Intensively Monitored Watersheds. Their presentations provide insights into restoration strategies that worked, or didn’t work, and why, as well as provide guidance to inform restoration tools and project design.
