U.S. government will uphold and defend decisions to block Pebble Mine

Last week, the Trump Administration stood up for America’s greatest salmon fishery and against Northern Dynasty, the Canadian company behind the toxic Pebble Mine project. On July 17, the Department of Justice announced that it will defend a 2020 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers rejection of a key Pebble Mine permit and EPA’s subsequent decision to protect Bristol Bay from future versions of the mine. Northern Dynasty’s suit challenging the decisions now enters a new phase, as Wild Salmon Center joins the government’s case to defend Bristol Bay.

Salmon Vision, artificial intelligence, and the future of fishing

If you joined us on July 16 for our first Headwaters: Side Channel webinar, then you already know that AI is a game changer for sustainable salmon fisheries. If you missed it, here’s the full recording from Dr. Will Atlas, Wild Salmon Center Senior Watershed Scientist and co-founder of Salmon Vision: a cutting-edge fish monitoring tool powered by machine learning. Would your agency or organization like to know more about Salmon Vision? Our information request form is now live.

In a big win, Elliott State Research Forest clears a major federal hurdle

This summer, NOAA Fisheries approved a habitat conservation plan for Oregon’s Elliott State Research Forest. The Elliott HCP marks the first of its kind for Oregon state forests. Wild Salmon Center and our partners worked for years to stop the Elliott’s sale and create a conservation model to prioritize fish and wildlife, carbon storage, and sustainable timber harvest. Two other Oregon HCPs still await federal approval: the State Forest HCP (634,000 acres) and the Private Forest Accord HCP (10 million acres). Oregonians can take action here to support this work!
