The 2026 WRIA 1 Salmon Recovery Plan Update builds upon the 2005 WRIA 1 Salmonid Recovery Plan, retaining the original watershed vision, recovery goals, and recognition of Tribal Treaty Rights. The update is organized into three complementary and equally important sections. The "About the 2026 Plan Update" page includes links to each Section page. Approval of the update is scheduled for approval by the WRIA 1 Lead Entity, which is the WRIA 1 Watershed Management Board, at their November 18, 2026 meeting.
