Tribal harvest levels have been reduced to levels not seen in more than 40 years.

As salmon habitat declines, so do salmon fisheries.

The treaty tribes in western Washington are dedicated to restoring and protecting salmon habitat. Over the past two decades, tribes have restored at least 112 miles and 13,000 acres of salmon habitat.

But salmon habitat continues to decline. We need your help.

The treaty tribes have developed habitat priorities to help bring salmon populations back from the brink. Subscribe for the latest information about how we can all work together to address these priorities to lead to healthier communities and more abundant natural resources for everyone.

Tribal habitat priorities

Make sure there is enough water to support salmon. Ensure the water quality is clean enough to provide fish and shellfish that is safe to eat.
