 Conservation
on Private Lands. Our programs emphasize
restoration and conservation activities that support the recovery
of federally-listed threatened and endangered species on private
lands. Working with a diversity of partners such as private
landowners, municipalities, industries, government agencies,
tribes, and non-profit organizations, we seek out opportunities
where conservation agreements, restoration funding, and technical
assistance can help conserve and restore key habitats and
ecological functions.
Assistance
Available. We provide technical support,
guidance, and funding for our partners to help design and
implement restoration projects that benefit native species
and their habitats. We also assist applicants in the process
of developing conservation agreements. Our staff has expertise
in wetland and stream ecology, conservation biology, ecosystem
management, watershed assessment, land use planning, and the
administration of agreements and grants.
Endangered
Species Act (ESA) Compliance. In 2004, the
USFWS restoration programs completed consultation internally
and with the National Marine Fisheries Service. This consultation
resulted in programmatic biological opinions that cover potential
impacts of restoration activities on listed species in Oregon
and provide our partners with ESA assurances.
