ABOUT US

The Chehalis Basin Fisheries Task Force (CBFTF or "Task Force") is a private, nonprofit, tax-exempt corporation and one of fourteen Regional Fisheries Enhancement Groups (RFEG). While the Task Force functions in a variety of capacities, its main focus involves acting as a funding agency, coordinating technical resources, and providing public education.

​

Base funding for the RFEG program comes from a grant from U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Partners for Fish and Wildlife Program, a portion of State commercial and recreational fishing license fees, and excess egg and carcass sales administered by WA Dept. of Fish & Wildlife.
