<br>
In 2010 the Salmonid Restoration Federation and the California-Nevada American
Fisheries Society chapter will co-host the 28th Annual Salmonid Restoration
Conference and the 44th Annual Cal-Neva AFS Conference in Redding, California.
We are truly excited about this new collaborative effort. The first two days of
the conference will be filled with symposia, full-day workshops and field
tours. A half-day plenary session will be followed by 1.5 days of technical,
biological, and policy-related concurrent sessions. This conference will focus
on a broad range of salmonid and watershed restoration topics of concern to
restoration practitioners, watershed scientists, fisheries bioliogists,
resource agency personnel, land-use planners, and landowners. <br>
This year the conference will feature symposia on bionengineering techniques
and status of new conservation approaches to California fishes, workshops on
topics including floodplain restoration, water conservation and agricultural
planning, water quality and TMDLs, and storm water pollution runoff. <b><u><span
style='background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow'>All day field tours will include
tours of</span></u></b> Clear Creek restoration, Lower Battle Creek restoration
projects, <b><u><span style='background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow'>the Upper
Trinity River, Shasta River,</span></u></b> the Sacramento River and a Redding
tour that will highlight projects in Silver Creek, Salt Creek, and Gravel
Augmentation. <br>

The Salmonid Restoration Federation, CA Department of Fish & Game and
Pacific Watershed Associates will offer a field school to learn techniques to
address culvert and road drainage practices as well as erosion control
techniques. This field school will be held at <a href="http://www.oz-farm.com/"><span
style='color:#1B36CE'>Oz Farm </span></a>on the Garcia River. All meals and
lodging are included in the course fees. The curriculum includes conducting
road sediment assessments (problem identification and prescription
development); implementing fish-friendly road upgrading practices (stream
crossing upgrades and improved road drainage practices to protect water
quality); proper road decommissioning practices; road inspection, and
maintenance practices; erosion control and erosion prevention practices, and
spoils management. Throughout the course we will emphasize the concepts of
making our road systems as “hydrologically invisible” and as
resilient to storm events as possible. We will also focus on educating
participants about how best to address the root causes of observed erosion
problems, through both maintenance and repair practices at each potential work
site. Please visit the <a href="http://calsalmon.org/"><span style='color:#1B36CE'>SRF
