Native Fish Conservation - Conservation and Recovery Plans

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is leading or participating in several recovery or conservation planning efforts. The plans are designed to address legal requirements for recovery planning under the U.S. Endangered Species Act (ESA) and under Oregon's Native Fish Conservation Policy (OAR 635-007-0502).

The plans developed under this policy provide an informed, strategic approach to recovery that is based on science, is supported by stakeholders, and is built on existing efforts and new proposed recovery actions. The plans are linked to an adaptive management framework that will allow it to evolve over time with the acquisition of new information, including the assessment of the success of recovery actions implemented.

This page includes ODFW Conservation and Recovery Plans (above), as well as federal recovery plans that apply to Oregon's native freshwater and anadromous fish (below).
