Mission

To engage the community and facilitate efforts that will enhance, sustain, conserve and protect the natural resources and rural lifestyle of the Clearwater Watershed for present and future generations.

Program accomplishments

• Forest Restoration and Wildfire safety - The Clearwater Valley contains thousands of acres of forests, much of it public lands. The wildland-urban interface surrounding the community of Seeley Lake places it at risk of wildfire from all directions. CRC's fuel mitigation program is designed to assist private landowners with treating hazardous fuels, thus reducing the fire risk to homes/properties. CRC's Director of Terrestrial Programs responds to landowner requests for property evaluation and if qualified, assists in acquiring cost-share grants from public funds to achieve fuel and fire-risk reduction. In addition, CRC leads collaborative efforts across state and federal agencies to conduct cross-boundary efforts for fuel mitigation and forest restoration activities
  Expenses $60,861 · grants $55,884
• Water Quality - Over 80% of the public identify maintaining water quality of lakes and streams as a high priority. We live in one of the few areas where water is still cold and pure. CRC works to monitor and protect that resource and have instituted various projects conducted by staff and volunteers to analyze lake and stream water quality and monitor lakes for invasive species.
  Expenses $31,540 · grants $27,280
• Education and Outreach-People are a critical aspect of environmental work. People also provide manpower, funds, and ideas to ensure programs are effective and long lasting. In order to make sure community members are aware of the benefits and conservation needs of the natural resources in our watershed, we have instituted a number of demonstration projects, community programs, and public outreach activities.
