Today is #EndangeredSpeciesDay. The ESA protects imperiled species from extinction as a consequence of economic growth and development untempered by adequate concern and conservation.
NSEA help salmon by removing fish passage barriers on creeks and tribs of the Nooksack River.
Bertrand Creek Tributary Fish Passage Barrier Assessment. Inappropriately sized and installed culverts often create large outfall drop at the downstream end of the culvert barriers limiting fish access to upstream habitat for multiple life stages for salmon.
#SalmonFunFact
Did you know that in the fossil record there is evidence of a gigantic spike-toothed salmon in our waterways? Between 4 and 13 million years ago, these 7-foot-long, 400-pound fish were #Anadromous, just like the #PacificSalmon species we see today.
NSEA has been planting a @WDFW property on the Nooksack River Mainstem downstream of Ferndale. The NSEA Crew, the WCC Crew, and volunteers have planted and mulched for the last 2 years. Both crews will monitor and maintain the site for 3 years after the planting is complete.
The WCC crew has maintained a riparian planting site on California Creek the past 2 years. The site has been successful in plant survival and growth. Beaver cage has been removed. Thinning has been done to promote growth and allow for the future installation of understory plants
The Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe has sustained the #ElwhaRiver’s coho salmon population by removing two fish-blocking dams and developing a successful #hatchery program, while continuing to support the tribe’s fishing culture #treatyrights https://t.co/fOSXQYA2DL
