Enhancement Projects
"Enhancement" is a general term used to denote projects that support and/or increase fish populations and their habitat. Enhancement projects are as individual and unique as the surrounding terrain. These types of projects can be as simple as constructing egg boxes or as complex as total streambed restorations. Within the Chehalis Basin there are a vast array of completed and ongoing enhancement projects including; stream bed clearing, stream bank restoration, road and trail abandonment, erosion control, culvert replacements, spawning channel restoration, rearing ponds, hatcheries, broodstocking, and educational outreach programs.

"Restoration" is defined as an activity that results in improving habitat, including both physical and functional restoration, with a goal towards a self-sustaining, ecologically based system that is integrated with its surrounding landscape. Habitat restoration projects are driven by the goal to return an ecosystem to a close approximation of its condition prior to disturbance.

CBFTF Eduction & outreach projects strive
to create an aware and educated Chehalis Basin community which
displays personal concern and ownership for the river and its
fisheries resources. The prime goal for these efforts is to
develop an understanding of fisheries issues through education,
communication and marketing by targeting user groups, members,
federal, state and local government agencies, community members,
businesses, Tribes and schools.
