This watershed restoration project will improve forest health, range, and riparian restoration activities along the headwaters of the Upper Sevier River on the Dixie National Forest in Utah. The Upper South Platte project is designed to restore this Denver metro area watershed following recent multiple wildfires and flooding. The project will also improve those forested areas in the watershed to reduce risks from insects, disease, and wildfire. This project will accelerate riparian, wetlands, forest, and rangeland restoration activities within the 510,000 acres that are the headwaters of the Pit River, which provides 20 percent of the total runoff into the Sacramento River. The White River project is designed to restore riparian and aquatic habitats and water quality within a large watershed that serves over 21 towns in central Vermont.
Work includes watershed planning, conservation education, river bank restoration and stabilization.
The Pacific Coastal Watersheds project initiates a partnership among local, state and federal governments, conservation organizations and other non-government organizations to address watershed restoration. This project focuses on opportunities for restoring watershed health along the Pacific Coast on the South Fork Coquille River, the Sandy River Delta and the Siuslaw River.
