VITAL AND SUSTAINABLE LOCAL ECONOMIES Prioritize Plans, Projects and Actions that Result in Long Term Sustainability of Jobs & Revenues
The Fish Friendly Farming (FFF) and Fish Friendly Ranching (FFR) Environmental Certification Programs increase ecosystem function on agricultural and grazing lands while sustaining economic viability. They implement water quality improvements including: sediment source control, road and gully repair, water conservation and use efficiency, enhancement of riparian corridors through invasive species removal and revegetation, and widening riparian corridors. This project will improve 20,000 acres in the Russian, Gualala and Navarro River watersheds with a focus on disadvantaged communities.
