Coyote Lake Lahontan Cutthroat Trout
Oregon Native Fish Status Report – Volume II Coyote Lake Lahontan Cutthroat Trout Existing Populations Lahontan cutthroat trout populations in the Coyote Lakes basin are remnant of a larger population inhabiting pluvial Lake Lahontan during the Pleistocene era. Hydrologic access routes of founding cutthroat trout from Lake Lahontan basin into the Coyote Lakes basin have yet to be described (Coffin and Cowan 1995). The Coyote Lake Lahontan Cutthroat Trout SMU is comprised of five populations (Table 1). All populations express a resident life history strategy; however large individuals in the Willow and Whitehorse Complex populations suggest a migratory component may exist. Table 1. Populations, existence status, and life history of the Coyote Lake Lahontan Cutthroat Trout SMU. Exist Population Description Life History Yes Willow Willow Creek and tributaries. Resident / Migratory Yes Whitehorse Complex Whitehorse and Little Whitehorse Creeks, and Resident / Migratory tributaries. Yes Doolittle Doolittle Creek above barrier. Resident Yes Cottonwood Cottonwood Creek above barrier. Resident Yes Antelope Antelope Creek. Resident Lahontan cutthroat trout from Willow and Whitehorse creeks were transplanted into Cottonwood Creek in 1971 and 1980, and into Antelope Creek in 1972 (Hanson et al. 1993). Whether Lahontan cutthroat trout were present in these creeks prior to stocking activities is disputed (Behnke 1992, Hanson et al. 1993, Coffin and Cowan 1995, K. Jones, ODFW Research Biologist, Corvallis, OR personal communication). For the purpose of this review these populations are considered native. Lahontan cutthroat trout were also transplanted into Fifteenmile Creek above a natural barrier (Hanson et al. 1993), but they did not establish a self- sustaining population (ODFW Aquatic Inventory Project, unpublished data). -

2021 Malheur National Wildlife Refuge
Implementation Progress Update 2021 This document is an implementation summary of the Collaborative Comprehensive Conservation Plan (CCP) between January 2013 and September of 2018. During this period significant effort was directed towards improving ecological function of aquatic systems, the highest CCP priority. Efforts were focused on Malheur Lake based on collaborative conversations and intercontinental importance to migratory birds. Resulting from extensive interactions it became clear Malheur Lake is both unique and a poorly understood ecosystem. With this as the bases to start from and through testing possible monitoring/ management techniques, it became clear a strategic ecological system approach was required. This resulted in beginning the development of a Malheur Lake systems model that would enable transfer of knowledge through time and test/inform future management decisions. Resources were also directed towards social and economic analysis to strengthen future management decisions and develop implementation resources. The other major component of improving Refuge aquatic health was development of an integrated wetland/river plan. Advancing efforts on Malheur Lake required significant commitments of resources from the Refuge and partners. This necessary commitment of resources prevented work on integrated wetland/river planning and testing. The Ecology Work Group (established in the CCP) focused on obtaining data in wet meadow habitats related to the grazing and haying program through independent third party monitoring. This collaborative effort recognized the need for developing a state and transition model. Due to habitat configurations it was found not possible to fully develop needed science on Refuge lands alone. The scientific effort was then expanded to other parts of the Basin with support from Refuge permittee resources. -

inaugural report Oregon Cultural Trust fy 2003 – fy 2006 Grant dollars from the Cultural Trust are transformational. In historic Oregon City, they helped bring a more stable operating structure to separate organizations with marginal resources. As a result, we continue to share Oregon’s earliest stories with tens of thousands of visitors, many of them students, every year. —David Porter Clackamas Heritage Partners September 2007 Dear Oregon Cultural Trust supporters and interested Oregonians: With genuine pride we present the Oregon Cultural Trust’s inaugural report from the launch of the Trust in December 2002 through June 30, 2006 (the end of fiscal year 2006). It features the people, the process, the challenges and the success stories. While those years were difficult financial ones for the State, the Trust forged ahead in an inventive and creative manner. Our accomplishments were made possible by a small, agile and highly committed staff; a dedicated, hands-on board of directors; many enthusiastic partners throughout the state; and widespread public buy-in. As this inaugural report shows, the measurable results, given the financial environ- ment, are almost astonishing. In brief, more than $10 million was raised; this came primarily from 10,500 donors who took advantage of Oregon’s unique and generous cultural tax credit. It also came from those who purchased the cultural license plate, those who made gifts beyond the tax credit provision, and from foundations and in-kind corporate gifts. Through June 30, 2006, 262 grants to statewide partners, county coalitions and cultural organizations in all parts of Oregon totaled $2,418,343. -

The report in dicated the orevice to be of great length and depth. This was confirmed by the writer on the occasion of a hurried visit to the area May 7th. A more extended examination was made on May 21st and the following paragraphs summarize the observations made at that time. The crevice is looated about a mile southeast of the Miller ranch and extends for a paced distance of somewhat in exoess of 2 miles along a general northeast course. These relationships are indicated on the accompanying sketch. The area traversed represents valley bottom land which is essentially flat. This is made up of clays and silts with occasional interbedded lenses of sands and fine gravels. -
