Tenmile Lakes Basin Partnership /Cascade Pacific RC&D
$50,000

The Tenmile Lakes, identified as one of the few habitats that support a native coho salmon fishery, have seen populations decimated over the past several decades due to de-channelization and increased sedimentation of the wetlands that buffer the lake and provide important habitat for juvenile fish. Alongside our partners and landowner Lone Rock Timber, the Tenmile Lakes Basin Partnership with support from our fiscal sponsor Cascade Pacific Resource Conservation Council, is going to replant and restore 20 acres of historic wetlands to their natural function in the priority Benson Creek subbasin, improving habitat for coho salmon while also reducing nutrient loads in the lake to preserve the area for habitat and recreation.
