The development of this plan is totally reliant on the voluntary participation of landowners, and it will be most effective for salmon habitat if the majority of landowners along Scatter creek participate. Thurston Conservation District recently received funding which will enable staff to support the creation of the landowner organization and assist in the development of the Habitat Conservation Plan. The success of this project depends on participation front landowners along the creek. Current levels of participation range from simply giving permission for the habitat evaluation team from Thurston Conservation District to access Scatter Creek, to the more hands-on involvement of those who wish to play an active role as part of the advisory group, Any and all levels of participation are welcomed. Participation is always voluntary .
Landowners can decide to start or end participation at any time in the development process.
