Restoration activities that improve or create freshwater and estuary habitat for spawning and rearing can improve salmon survival. Projects include stabilizing stream banks, improving fish access and water flows, building side-channels, fencing, planting riparian vegetation or improving spawning and rearing habitats. Projects include incubation and rearing programs, marking and enumeration initiatives.
Stewardship refers to community-based initiatives that promote sustainable salmon populations.
Projects include stream inventories, habitat mapping and watershed planning. These projects enable proponents to develop their watershed knowledge and give them the tools to provide regulators and developers with the information required to make informed decisions on stock conservation and habitat protection and restoration.
