About Us
The Governor's Salmon Recovery Office was established by the Legislature through the Salmon Recovery Planning Act (Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2496). The Salmon Office's role is to coordinate and produce a statewide salmon strategy; assist in the development of regional recovery plans; secure current and future funding for local, regional, and state recovery efforts; and provide the Biennial State of Salmon report to the Legislature.
The Office also provides policy advice to the Salmon Recovery Funding Board and the Governor's Monitoring Forum.
