Habitat Improvement

The Habitat Improvement program focuses on improving the riparian, floodplain, and marine nearshore habitats of Pierce County along with other rare and endangered plant communities unique to our region. We implement projects to recover native salmon/orca populations, remove invasive species, replant native trees and shrubs and restore other ecosystem processes.
