Please Attend these presentations regarding Nearshore Salmon Restoration in the Strait of Juan De Fuca-June 13, 3-5 pm. Please RSVP

If you are interested, please RSVP for a presentation Thursday afternoon of three Projects located within the Central Strait which are seeking grant funding from the Salmon Recovery Funding Board and Puget Sound Acquisition and Restoration Funds. Those projects include:


• Ediz Hook Beach Restoration Phase III by Mike McHenry of the Elwha Klallam Tribe

• Elwha Nearshore Protection & Restoration Presented by Anne Shaffer of the Coastal Watershed Institute

• Elwha River Revegetation Phase II presented by Mike McHenry of the Elwha Klallam Tribe and Josh Chenoweth of Olympic National Park

• Avenues for weighing in on project proposals & Technical Team Project Review by Cheryl Baumann of the North Olympic LE for Salmon

If enough people RSVP, the presentation will be from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. Thursday, June 13th in the Board of Commissioners Meeting Room of the Clallam County Courthouse.

Those interested in attending are asked to RSVP by e-mail to cbaumann@co.clallam.wa.us or by calling 417-2326.

If RSVPS are not received by Thursday morning at 111 a.m., the presentations will be cancelled due to lack of participation, as well as budget & other work constraints.

This presentation is similar to what has been presented to the Elwha-Morse Management Team in years past. That group is not currently operating.

However, we are still offering this presentation to former EMMT members and others who may be interested as long as we have RSVPs to indicate we have people planning to attend.
