About Us

In February 2024, the Washington State Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO) recognized the Spokane Salmon Restoration Collaborative (SSRC) as the Spokane River watershed lead entity.

Washington State’s Salmon Recovery Act, specifically RCW 77.85.050, authorizes the formation of lead entities to develop local watershed strategies, make funding recommendations to the state’s Salmon Recovery Funding Board (SRFB), and coordinate funding and implementation of habitat projects.

The SSRC will develop a habitat restoration strategy and recommend funding habitat projects that support reintroduction of non-ESA listed salmon and preservation of native redband trout in the Spokane River watershed. To learn more, visit About Us.
