Chagdud Gonpa Property Restoration Design

The Chagdud Gonpa Property Restoration Design project is a grant awarded to Hoopa Valley Tribal Fisheries for a cooperative agreement with a private foundation. Managed by the California Wildlife Conservation Board under Project Tracker ID 2026021 and Proposition 1 Water Code Section 79733, the project is located at APN 341 Red Hill Road in Junction City, Trinity County. The primary objective is to complete the necessary planning and design work to prepare for a future implementation project aimed at reconnecting the Trinity River to its floodplain and stabilizing surrounding property to benefit Coho Salmon, Steelhead, and other native fish species. The scope of work includes the development of 100 percent design plans, the submission of permit applications, the completion of CEQA documents, and the execution of hydrological, cultural, and biological surveys. Because the current phase is limited to feasibility and planning studies without approved funding for implementation, the project has been issued a Notice of Exemption under Section 15262. Administrative oversight is provided by the Department of Fish and Wildlife Wildlife Conservation Board, with Rebecca Fris serving as the primary point of contact.
