Kimberley Aquatic Ecosystem Stewardship Project - $20,000
Wildsight
Kimberley, BC

The Kimberley Aquatic Ecosystems Stewardship Project extends the mandate of the well-known Mark Creek Recovery Program to Mathew, Kimberley and Lois Creek and other aquatic ecosystems impacted by Kimberley and surrounding areas. Building on the MCRP’s past achievements, the project will develop a Kimberley conservation model for sustainable water management and the awareness and regulatory tools to achieve this sustainability. The project will increase our scientific knowledge of two local species at risk, Westslope cutthroat trout and Coeur d’ Alene salamander, will facilitate the formation of a new Kimberley Creek stewardship group, and will continue to deliver hands-on restoration based school programming as well as aquatic ecosystems awareness and restoration programming for the community at large.
