Calapooia Watershed Council

Working to Improve the health of the watershed

The Calapooia Watershed Council (CWC) carries out its mission through strategic restoration of the Calapooia River and its tributaries. CWC also engages in outreach and education to engage community members and stakeholders in its activities and objectives. Watershed-wide restoration is conducted in highest priority stream reaches and sub-basins.

The council conducts comprehensive watershed assessments to identify and prioritize specific restoration and conservation strategies for a holistic watershed planning approach. These assessments are phenomenal tools for the Council members and the Restoration Project Manager because they provide clear direction based on scientific method

The Calapooia River is home to two species listed as “threatened” under the federal Endangered Species Act: winter steelhead and spring Chinook.  The Calapooia watershed steelhead represent the uppermost distribution of steelhead in the Willamette system.

The steelhead population in the Calapooia is native and has never been supplemented or augmented with hatchery stock.

The Calapooia River still contains some of the best riparian forests remaining in the valley.
