Working to Improve the Health of the Watershed

Fish Passage Improvement

Access to cool and clean upstream waters is crucial for the health of our native fisheries including ESA-listed salmon and steelhead

Youth Snorkeling Program

In collaboration with area middle & high schools, community groups, along with our partners at the US Forest Service, CWC offers snorkeling sessions at the end of Spring, through the Summer, into early Fall

Oak Savanna Restoration

One of the rarest habitat types in the Willamette Valley, but also a priority for restoration because this habitat type supports more than 200 native species

Wetland Prairie Restoration

Wet prairie habitats are an extremely rare habitat type due to conversion to agriculture, development, etc., while intact wet prairie habitats are being degraded through invasion of noxious weeds and/or encroaching woody vegetation

Invasive Species Removal

The watershed council has taken a lead role in the treatment of early threat invasive weed species along our streams, with a focus on the mainstem Calapooia

Urban Ecology

The CWC facilitates field trips to urban, suburban, and rural conservation sites to learn where human uses and ecosystem services coincide

Riparian Restoration

A significant portion of our revegetation program is focused on riparian or streamside buffer restoration

The Calapooia Watershed Council (CWC) carries out its mission through strategic restoration of the Calapooia River and its tributaries. CWC also engages in outreach and education to engage community members and stakeholders in its activities and objectives. Watershed-wide restoration is conducted in highest priority stream reaches and sub-basins.

The council conducts comprehensive watershed assessments to identify and prioritize specific restoration and conservation strategies for a holistic watershed planning approach. These assessments are phenomenal tools for the Council members and the Restoration Project Manager because they provide clear direction based on scientific method

We are located in Brownsville, Oregon in the traditional territory of the Tsankupi (“Calapooia River”) band of the Kalapuya. After the Kalapuya Treaty (Treaty of Dayton) in 1855, Kalapuya people were forcibly removed to what are now the Grand Ronde and Siletz reservations, and are now members of Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde Community of Oregon and the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians.
