WHY A PARTNERSHIP?

The ecological outcomes achieved by integrating land conservation, flow enhancement, and stream restoration on Whychus Creek encouraged the Partnership to develop a grand vision for the permanent protection, restoration, and stewardship of the most important habitat along other key stream reaches, including the Metolius River and the Lower Crooked River. By coordinating land purchases, water rights transfers, conservation projects, and habitat restoration, the Partnership has dramatically  increased the pace, scale, and impact of restoration in the target stream reaches.
