Grays Harbor Conservation District

This Investment Plan serves as a roadmap to address erosion, flooding, and habitat degradation within the Satsop River Valley. It outlines four primary goals: protecting public and private infrastructure and agricultural lands, improving floodplain connectivity and restoring habitats, reducing flood hazards, and maintaining recreational opportunities. The strategy involves a combination of land conservation, small-scale large woody debris projects, engineered log jams, bank armoring, and specific interventions for Keys Road, aiming to achieve long-term environmental sustainability and protect local economic and community assets.

This Annual Work Plan for the Grays Harbor Conservation District outlines strategic goals and objectives across several key natural resource priority areas for the 2025-2026 period. The plan focuses on enhancing watershed restoration, improving marine resiliency by combating invasive species, promoting mindful forest stewardship, ensuring agricultural viability through technical and financial assistance, and expanding education and outreach initiatives. Additionally, it addresses district operations to support organizational growth, staff retention, and financial stability.
