Our Mission
We foster partnerships for clean water and to improve fish and wildlife habitat and the quality of life for those who live, work and recreate in the watershed.
We accomplish this by:
- Undertaking watershed restoration to increase the abundance, diversity, and productivity of native resident and anadromous (salmon and steelhead) fish populations throughout the basin.
- Protecting and enhancing the quality and quantity of source water for domestic water supplies to meet an increasing population.
- Controlling non-native weeds, and restoring native vegetation to improve both aquatic and terrestrial habitats.
- Engaging communities and landowners in watershed improvement projects that protect and enhance the natural resources.

Clackamas Inspires
This video was created for the 2022 Annual Clackamas Watershed Celebration.
It explores how the Clackamas River Basin Council’s restoration work is important not only for our ecology and wildlife, but also for the art and culture of our basin.
We thank speakers Bobby Mercier from the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, Earlean Marsh from Spiral Gallery, Danica Glazier of Happy Valley, and CRBC staff, as well as our narrator Todd Bartlett.
