The Wild Clearwater program is a multifaceted and integrated conservation education and participation effort. Its two main parts are Outreach/Education and Ecosystem Defense. FOC sponsored several different events and educational opportunities. These included field monitoring with volunteers, educational research projects, presentations at universities and colleges, and our annual potluck. These events reached hundreds of people. The Wild Clearwater program also provides newsletters and information about current public land, water and wildlife issues in the Clearwater Basin to a list of about 900 in paper form and some 3000 in email form, and a few thousand followers on Facebook and Twitter. The Ecosystem Defense component of the Wild Clearwater program of Friends of the Clearwater is heavily involved in the input processes on public lands. Friends of the Clearwater staff members and volunteers prepare and provide detailed and substantive input on issues that affect the national forests in the Clearwater Basin. Last year we commented on dozens of separate projects and prepared detailed reports on current issues. In certain circumstances, we may also exercise our constitutional rights of judicial review if we feel agency decisions are in error. We are frequently asked to comment to the media on various topics affecting the Clearwater Basin. 135544 135544 Tanya Gale President 5.00 0 Chris Norden Vice President 4.00 0 Brett Haverstick Secretary 5.00 0 Julian Matthews Board Member 1.00 0 Lynne Nelson Board Member 5.00 0 Beth Hoots Board Member 4.00 0 Harry Jageman Board Member 4.00 0 Steve Paulson Treasurer 4.00 0 Gary Macfarlane Board Member 5.00 0 false false false false false false false 0 0 0 false 0 0 false Steve Paulson PO Box 9241 Moscow ID 83843 2088829755 false false false false false false false false true false false NONE NONE true X 197382 147452 136234 168297 126802 776167 0 0 197382 147452 136234 168297 126802 776167 0 776167 145 77 31 84 169 506 0 18833 22317 22000 8000 1055 72205 848878 0.91430 0.89630 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false true true false true 800 true 200 false true 200 false false 1200 false false Part II-B, Line 1i - Other Activities Description While we had no lobbying program in 2023, some members and volunteers most likely contacted legislators or their staff about issues affecting the Clearwater Basin and a volunteer hosts a local radio show on the environment in the Clearwater Basin. 1b--Staff signed on to four letters to Congress produced by other organizations, met two times with legislative aids via Zoom meetings, and spoke on the radio.
