Russian River Biological Opinion Annual Report

The Water Agency is required to annually report all the activities, studies and monitoring mandated by National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) in the Russian River Biological Opinion. Some of these activities take place every year, like water quality monitoring in the estuary and counting and measuring young steelhead and coho salmon at various points in the Russian River and Dry Creek. Others are one-time activities, like the Dry Creek Current Conditions Inventory.

The Water Agency has elected to coalesce the reports from the first year of activities into an Annual Report. The annual report is written for technical purposes for NMFS and summarizes all the activities in detail.
