IRS990/Desc0Salmonid Fish Monitoring Program: Smith River Alliance (SRA) performs surveys to assess and monitor salmon populations on the Smith River. Data on the distribution and abundance of Smith River coho salmon will help fisheries biologists better understand factors limiting the successful spawning, rearing and survival of this species. Coho salmon are listed as endangered through the California Endangered Species Act and threatened through the Federal Endangered Species Act. And by better understanding the limiting factors for coho salmon survival, fisheries scientists gain critically important insights about limiting factors for the spawning, rearing, and survival of ALL salmon species in the Smith River.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Rock Creek Ranch: Located on a sweeping bend of the South Fork of the Smith River, this is a place where the seasons are felt and ample facilities are available to support SRA programs and visitors. During the rainy season, when the river is high, it moves with a booming and boisterous energy. You can actually hear and feel the boulders moving in the riverbed. In summer, the river is an elegant emerald ribbon that gathers and slows to create two swimming holes, both jewels in the crown that is Rock Creek Ranch. SRA hosts visitors/guests year-round from Humboldt State U. and other educational institutions to youth and family camps. Since 2000 SRA has hosted annual data collection projects such as the Annual Adult Fish Count. 2016 was an important year for significant property improvements, too.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0The Smith River Watershed Program: The Smith River is one of the crown jewels of the National Wild and Scenic River System and the last major undammed river in California. Over 300 miles of the Smith are included in the National Wild and Scenic River System, created in 1964 to protect outstandingly remarkable scenic, recreational, geologic, fish and wildlife, historic, cultural or other similar values, for preservation in a free-flowing condition. In 2016 SRA completed the final phase of the 5400-acre Hurdygurdy Creek purchase and transfer into the Smith River National Recreation Area --- thus protecting important salmon and steelhead habitat and improving recreational access and opportunities. The acquisition included several miles of Wild and Scenic River corridor.SRA was a leader and partner in the campaign to block a proposed strip mine in the headwaters of the Smith and Illinois Rivers in OR. SRA also took the lead in launching the Smith River NRA Collaborative which is a joint venture between the Six Rivers National Forest, Elk Valley Rancheria, the Tolowa Dee-ni Nation, Del Norte County, Del Norte Fire Safe Council, local and regional environmental groups (SRA, Friends of Del Norte, Klamath Forest Alliance/EPIC, Klamath-Siskiyou Wildland Center) and the American Forest Resource Council. These stakeholders work as partners to promote and implement forest and aquatic restoration and management on the Smith River NRA.
