Project OverviewProject Overview
Identifies, formulates and implements reasonable and feasible water strategies at the local level through:
•Stakeholder involvement•Baseline water audit information•Pilot project applications
Increases in-stream flow within selected tributaries of the Okanogan basin through:
• Water conservation • Purchase, lease, transfer of water rights• Voluntary Water Market• Compensatory Mitigation Bank

Key Limiting Factors
Low instream flow
Elevated water temperature
Project NeedProject Need
The Okanogan Subbasin Summary identifies the
need to re-establish stream flows to recover and
maintain fish populations and habitat
