Subbasin Planning

The Chelan County Natural Resource Department is involved in a regional fish and wildlife planning effort through the Upper Columbia Salmon Recovery Board. The County is a partner with Okanogan County, Douglas County, the Colville Confederated Tribes and the Yakama Nation. Six fish and wildlife plans (also known as "subbasin plans") have been developed for the following "subbasins" (commonly known as watersheds): Wenatchee, Entiat, Lake Chelan, Methow, Okanogan, and the mainstream Columbia River. Subbasin plans were submitted to the Northwest Power Planning Council in May 2004.
The subbasin plans identified and provided the basis for prioritizing project proposals to be submitted to the Northwest Power Planning Council in future funding cycles and they will be used, potentially, for salmon recovery planning in North Central Washington. Chelan County staff have been working closely and in partnership with existing planning efforts in the region including Wenatchee Watershed Planning, Entiat Watershed Planning, Lead Entities and Salmon Recovery Planning in order to integrate the activities of each and reduce duplication of work already being done in the region
