    Chapter: 18 State(s): Idaho Recovery Unit Name: Southwest Idaho Region 1 U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service Portland, Oregon DISCLAIMER Recovery plans delineate reasonable actions that are believed necessary to recover and/or protect the species. Recovery plans are prepared by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and, in this case, with the assistance of recovery unit teams, State and Tribal agencies, and others. Objectives will be attained and any necessary funds made available subject to budgetary and other constraints affecting the parties involved, as well as the need to address other priorities. Recovery plans do not necessarily represent the views or the official positions or indicate the approval of any individuals or agencies involved in the plan formulation, other than the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Recovery plans represent the official position of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service only after they have been signed by the Director or Regional Director as approved. Approved recovery plans are subject to modification as dictated by new findings, changes in species status, and the completion of recovery tasks.

  • Payette River Basin Initiative
    Payette River Basin Initiative Purpose The purpose of the Payette River Basin (PRB) Initiative is to utilize conservation easements in permanently conserving portions of land which hold natural, recreational, agricultural and hydrological water resource value. The PRB initiative hopes to receive and focus local, regional and national resources to accomplish this goal. The waterways, lakes, and wild country within and around the basin has drawn people to the area for generations and with increased use, development is inevitable. The Payette Land Trust (PLT) has long understood the importance of the Basin to the area’s quality of life, economic viability, unique natural beauty and the importance to the State’s water quality. The PLT will strive to keep the land in private ownership and provide the opportunity for public access through agreements with willing private landowners. Goal The Goal of the PRB initiative is to permanently conserve a connected corridor from the Payette Lake inlet to Cabarton Bridge along the main stem of the North Fork Payette River. This effort will allow for access, recreation and movement of both people and wildlife within the corridor, while conserving the existing natural beauty and water quality. Payette River Basin Initiative Payette Land Trust: What We Believe The PLT believes in conserving the rural landscape of west central Idaho for the benefit of our community and future generations. We promote a community ethic that values and conserves its working agricultural properties and timberlands in balance with thoughtful development. We envision dedicated areas of open access and connectivity encouraging people to take part in their environment.

  • Non-Motorized Boating by District
    Non-Motorized Boating by District Cascade Warm Lake is situated in a scenic forest of towering, old-growth ponderosa pines about 25 miles east of Cascade, Idaho. The lake sits at an elevation of about 5,300 feet. Motorized and non-motorized boating and swimming are popular activities. A public boat launch is located across from Shoreline Campground. The North Shore Lodge also provides a private boat ramp for their guests. Non-motorized boaters should be aware that the Valley County Sheriff’s Office has boating restrictions in place on Warm Lake that limit speed for motorized users during certain hours. This may be important in choosing your time to enjoy non-motorized boating. Cascade Reservoir is managed by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers. The Boise National Forest’s Cascade Ranger District manages French Creek Campground and boat dock in the southwest portion. The reservoir offers boating of all types. Non-motorized users most often use small sail boats, paddleboards, etc. in the far south or far north sections of the reservoir. Emmett Payette River Complex – The Payette River Complex is a partnership between the US Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management in managing river recreation sites along the South Fork Payette River and Main Payette River. The complex consists of 7 developed day-use sites. For more information, go to Payette River pass information on the Boise NF Website listed under passes and permits. The Main Payette River from Banks to Beehive Bend is a popular stretch of river for non-motorized watercraft enthusiasts. The put-in at Banks, ideally situated at the confluence of the North and South forks of the Payette, is the hub of river running in the area.
