Together, the two organizations work to protect and restore Pacific salmon populations in the Washington coast region, which comprises all watersheds that drain directly into the Pacific Ocean between Cape Flattery and Cape Disappointment (3.75 million acres). This work is guided by the Washington Coast Sustainable Salmon Plan (Salmon Plan). The Foundation is responsible for financial management, contracting, fundraising and outreach needed for the Partnership to successfully implement this plan. Foundation staff support both plan implementation and financial, fundraising, and outreach activities.Salmon Plan Implementation: Implementation of the Salmon Plan includes coordinating with local watershed groups on the strategic development and prioritization of habitat restoration projects, which are then proposed for funding through eligible funding sources. Each year, an average of $1.5 million on-the-ground habitat restoration and protection projects are implemented in the region through grants from Washington state's Salmon Recovery Funding Board. For the past three consecutive state biennial budget cycles, the Foundation has played a pivotal role in securing an additional $12 million in project funding through the Washington Coast Restoration and Resiliency Initiative. This effort has involved a broad coalition of local, state, and nonprofit organization representatives who work together to restore coast ecosystems and communities that depend on them. The Foundation continually pursues additional funding opportunities to support implementation of the Salmon Plan. In the past three years, this has included more than $500 thousand in government and private funding sources to support the Coldwater Connection Campaign. This campaign will accelerate restoration work and open up to 150 miles of cold water for salmon and steelhead streams that are blocked by outdated culverts and other mini-dams on the rivers of the Olympia Peninsula.Communication and Outreach: The Foundation continued implementation of their Communications and Outreach Strategy in order to advance the Salmon Plan. Activities include website development and an e-newsletter to facilitate information exchange among stakeholders. Activities also included the development of an organizational outreach flyer, in-person presentations to community groups, and field tours for state and federal decision makers that communicated how the work of the Coast Salmon Partnership contributes to the ecological and economic resiliency of the Washington coast region. In addition to decision makers, the Foundation supported targeted educational programs for youth, the future decision makers in the region.Bull Trout and Lake Ozette Sockeye: The Washington coast region is the only region within Washington State that is not dominated by the presence of salmon species listed under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) as threatened or endangered. However, both Lake Ozette Sockeye and bull trout are listed as threatened under ESA. Fundraising by the Foundation, in collaboration with National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), allowed for the coordination of the Lake Ozette Sockeye Steering Committee (LOSSC). LOSSC is a local watershed group that works to implement the Lake Ozette Sockeye Recovery Plan, which was finalized by NOAA in 2006. Bull trout are under the authority of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). While restoration work has not specifically targeted bull trout to date, bull trout critical habitat, as defined by USFWS, includes specific rivers in the Washington Coast Region and such work is eligible for funding through the Washington Recreation and Conservation Office and US Fish and Wildlife Service. 276769 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 true 1 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false false false X 6 6 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false X X X X MARA ZIMMERMAN 3605329113 100 SOUTH I STREET SUITE 103 ABERDEEN WA 98520 PHILIP MILLER Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 CHRISTINE DRIVDAHL Chairman 8.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 KATHERINE KRUEGER Secretary 12.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 MARK SWARTOUT Treasurer 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 FRANK GEYER Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MIRANDA WECKER Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JOHN KLIEM Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 SARA LABORDE Vice Chairman 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 MARA ZIMMERMAN Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JESSICA HELSLEY Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 63769 0 4146 63769 4146 0 false false false UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON PO BOX 1628 FORKS WA 98331 SALMON PLAN 131702 SCHOOL OF ENVIRONMENTAL & FOREST SCIENCES IMPLEMENTATION COORDINATION 1 350104 80140 430244 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 160 99 61 61 0 430305 61 0 0 0 0 72765 47638 15514 9613 0 14862 12013 2849 0 33 33 6519 4338 1460 721 0 0 4496 2664 1832 0 0 0 368 195 173 0 4855 994 3098 763 4749 1369 3380 0 15600 10296 4368 936 6696 5802 894 0 1060 477 583 0 0 2220 1907 313 2503 2503 CONTRACTED SERVICES 186738 186738 SMALL EQUIPMENT & SOFTWARE 5858 3540 2318 WEB MEETINGS 2230 1436 169 625 Printing and Publications 187 26 142 19 185 174 11 331924 276769 40635 14520 5845 157751 0 40000 0 82101 24217 0 0 0 7869 6103 36752 8183 3950 5653 4233 0 0 0 7533 6733 0 147235 237555 32491 23676 32491 23676 X 4744 83879 110000 130000 114744 213879 147235 237555 98381 754 X false true X true false X 220992 318861 378759 378628 430244 1727484 0 0 220992 318861 378759 378628 430244 1727484 130676 1596808 9 15 15 14 53 0 5544 5544 1733081 0.92140 0.99630 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 8183 3950 4233 4233 430404 99 99 430305 430305 332023 99 99 331924 331924 Part XI, Line 2d: Other revenue amounts included in F/S but not included on form 990 COGS REPORTED ON PART VIII, LINE 10b $99 Part XII, Line 2d: Other expenses and losses per audited F/S COGS REPORTED ON PART VIII, LINE 10b $99 Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process The return preparer emails a copy of the final Form 990 to the Foundation's Executive Director, who reviews it for accuracy and clarity.
