The North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board issued a Statewide Restoration General Order Notice of Applicability on August 13, 2026, to the Scott River Watershed Council for the Scott River Watershed Restoration Program. This initiative focuses on the conservation, protection, and enhancement of California native fish and wildlife habitats within the Scott River Watershed. Specifically, the program is designed to support the recovery of steelhead, Chinook salmon, Southern Oregon/Northern California Coast coho salmon, Pacific lamprey, and Klamath River lamprey through the phased restoration of both aquatic and upland environments. Managed by the Regional Water Quality Control Board in Santa Rosa, the program is identified by WDID No. 1A26100WNSI. Key points of contact include Senior Environmental Scientist Jake Shannon and Executive Director Charnna Gilmore. The project is situated within the state of California and aims to provide critical habitat restoration to ensure the long-term viability of native species.
