Help advance DNR’s efforts to support habitat restoration, salmon recovery, and watershed health in the Snohomish watershed, an important Puget Sound river basin home to nine salmonid species. This new position will create dedicated capacity in the Orca-Straits Aquatic District to implement land management, stakeholder engagement, and project management to support habitat restoration and protection in the Snohomish basin. This work will help implement DNR’s Snohomish Watershed Resilience Action Plan (WRAP), a watershed-scale effort to promote salmon recovery, water quality, forest health, and vibrant communities.
