HEALTHY ECOSYSTEMS, HABITATS AND SPECIES
Conserve and Restore Salmonid Habitats and Ecosystems
The Mattole Integrated Coastal Watershed Management Program (MICWMP) integrates efforts to meet water quality and salmonid habitat goals for the coastal Mattole River watershed, MICWMP seeks to address key water quality
factors through an integrated set of watershed management activities that are designed to address long-standing goals: (1) the reduction of sediment within the lower Mattole River and estuary, (2) improvement of water quality (particularly related to summertime water temperature and sediment), (3) improvement of the Mattole estuary’s riparian, freshwater and brackish habitats, and (4) monitoring of restoration efforts to determine effectiveness.
