SRF Trainings
Salmonid Restoration Federation puts on intensive field schools, workshops, and symposia to teach the fisheries restoration community about fish passage design and engineering, erosion control techniques, and bioengineering practices. SRF also hosts an annual Spring-run Chinook symposium and Coho Confab to highlight restoration and recovery efforts to restore Springers and coho salmon. The California Department of Fish & Game is our primary source of grant funding to put on these valuable trainings. Additional partners are Resource Conservation Districts, other restoration-based non-profit organizations, California tribes, and NOAA Fisheries.
Here is a list of some past SRF Trainings:
SRF has been producing the Annual Salmonid Restoration Conference for more than 20 years and the Coho Confab and Annual Spring-run Chinook Symposium for seven and four years respectively.
