PACIFIC SALMON FOUNDATION

Earlier this summer, PSF funded $6,000 for the BC Conservation Foundation and the Snuneymuxw First Nation to salvage juvenile salmon in Nanaimo. So far, crews have rescued more than 5,000 fish and are working toward a plan that will allow more timed "pulse" water releases.

With PSF support, Lake Babine Fisheries are building structures that mimic beaver dams in the headwaters. These will help restore the watershed's natural ability to store water and release it slowly throughout the year. Learn more: vist.ly/5bhkd

Ever seen 30,000 steelhead enter the ocean? Earlier this summer, Steelhead Lager joined PSF to participate in a steelhead release from the Seymour River Hatchery. Now they'll spend several years at sea before coming home to spawn in local streams.

To combat the spread of whirling disease, Clean, Drain and Dry all boats and equipment when moving between water bodies. With PSF support, local stewards at Central Kootenay Invasive Species Society will lead community outreach among water users this summer.

Great news! A PSF grant will extend a major coho salmon habitat restoration project led by the Brooklyn Creek Watershed Society on Birkdale Farm in Comox. Learn more: vist.ly/59wc5

As of June 15, 2026, the provincial mountain snowpack is at 48% of normal, down from 64% of normal on June 1. PSF is working with partners to drive proactive drought planning, stream monitoring, and faster interventions for salmon. Learn more at PSF.CA
