  • STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN October 2005 Update
    Initial Phase of the Scott River Watershed Council STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN October 2005 Update Fiscal Administrator: Siskiyou Resource Conservation District P.O. Box 268 Etna, CA 96027 ABSTRACT and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Scott River Watershed Council (SRWC) has developed this plan for the Scott River watershed for the purpose of cooperatively establishing a common strategy for restoration and management actions. Thus, the Scott River Watershed Strategic Action Plan (SAP) will form the basis for setting priorities for future projects and practices to be supported by the SRWC, the communities within the watershed, and the many funding sources. The SRWC is supported in its current efforts to develop a comprehensive watershed restoration plan through funding provided by the Klamath River Basin Fisheries Task Force (KRBFTF), California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG), the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB), and the Cantara Trustee Council (CTC). Included in the SAP are identified goals, priorities, and strategic actions that will be used to develop projects and studies. Oversight of the planning process is the responsibility of the SRWC. The SRWC provides a multi-interest effort to cooperatively seek solutions, to help manage local resources, and to solve related problems. The primary role is to inform the community on resource issues, to aid in resource management, and to recommend to the Siskiyou Resource Conservation District (RCD) prioritized project opportunities in the Scott River Watershed for funding and implementation. The SAP has been organized using topical sections that describe the various components of the watershed. The abstract will provide a brief description of each of these sections.
