We do this by restoring river and stream habitat, providing nutrients for juvenile fish growth, and engaging the community in hands-on salmon stewardship and education. false false 3405838 Restoration Program: LCFEG works to restore and protect healthy aquatic ecosystems for salmon through a range of integrated programs. This includes prioritizing projects and developing long-term implementation plans, improving instream and floodplain conditions across the southwest Washington's rivers and streams, and enhancing riparian areas through native plantings and our nursery program. We also conduct nutrient enhancement work to restore ecosystem health and function by returning marine-derived nutrients to local watersheds, and monitor program outcomes through stream surveys, temperature data collection, and project-specific assessments 25465 Community Engagement: LCFEG engages and informs our community through a range of outreach and education efforts, including tabling at events, presentations to community groups, landowner outreach, partner meetings, and recovery advocacy with elected officials and site tours. Central to this work is our Seeds to Salmon program, which cultivates the next generation of conservation leaders through hands-on outdoor experiences that connect students to the full plant-to-salmon ecological cycle. Participating teachers can choose from more than 20 season-specific prepared lessons each school year, bringing salmon recovery into the classroom in a meaningful and accessible way. 3431303 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 8 0 true 12 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 9 9 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false WA X Morgan Morris 3608826671 11018 NE 51st Circle VANCOUVER WA 98682 Morgan Morris Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 83845 0 3515 Brendan Addis Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 BRIAN DAVERN President 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Scott Donaldson Vice President 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Jim Byrne Secretary 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Scott Jones Treasurer 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Lary Pipes Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 RICK YAHRMARKT DIRECTOR 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Hal Mahnke DIRECTOR 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Josh Jones DIRECTOR 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 83845 3515 0 false false false JP Huhta Undergroud PO BOX 1001 longview WA 98632 CONTRACTOR 853231 HFI Consultants PO Box 1929 Battle Ground WA 98604 Contractor 370188 NW Timber LLC PO Box 570 Woodland WA 98674 Contractor 911379 Columbia Helicopter Inc 14452 Arndt Rd NE Aurora OR 97004 Contractor 769930 4 20000 3425746 8290 20961 3454036 0 847 847 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3454883 847 X 0 0 0 0 45437 9996 35441 0 221960 213047 8913 0 25831 1156 24675 23823 21169 2654 0 0 16564 13000 3564 0 0 0 1956409 1945615 10794 163 163 169 70 99 0 0 14500 942 13558 26279 23111 3168 0 0 0 0 0 488 436 52 Supplies & Materials 1162901 1158065 4836 Taxes, licenses, and fees 17583 17583 Equipment Rental & Maintenance 14602 14066 536 In-Kind Materials 11047 11047 11650 1837 9813 3549406 3431303 118103 0 2809105 252342 53714 56450 1989770 355750 0 0 0 0 0 21655 21655 0 0 0 0 0 21839 15636 4896083 701833 1816535 154099 2749905 319785 25672 18501 4592112 492385 X 303971 209448 303971 209448 4896083 701833 -94523 X false false false X 1394000 1863362 2611811 4868364 3454036 14191573 0 0 1394000 1863362 2611811 4868364 3454036 14191573 0 14191573 28 1503 2084 847 4462 0 8028 8028 14204063 0.99910 0.99940 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Operating lease liability 18500 Rounding 1 18501 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The completed Form 990 is reviewed by the Executive Director and Treasurer of the board.
