Quinault Project Completed in Half the Time With Partnerships
“We took a leap of faith when we put it out to bid that we could come up with the money for the additional jams this year,” said Ed Johnstone, fisheries policy representative for QIN. To complete the additional four jams, QIN had to buy more logs. Thanks to last-minute donations of $10,000 from Pacific Coast Salmon Coalition in Forks, $15,000 from Wild Salmon Center in Portland and $25,000 from the Washington State Department of Natural Resources, the project protecting one of the last remaining spawning channels for sockeye was completed.
