The Wild Fish Conservancy is seeking interns/volunteers for an assessment of habitat use by the juvenile salmon in the tidally-influenced areas of the Chehalis River estuary. The project, now in it’s second year, will use beach seining and fyke trapping to capture, identify, measure, and release juvenile fish from March to September, 2012. Habitat assessments will also be made to identify areas for future habitat restoration projects to aid in salmon recovery in the Chehalis Basin. The effort will provide experience in field techniques, fish identification, data collection, boating skills and habitat assessment. Free group lodging will be provided in Westport. Anyone who is interested, please contact James Fletcher (james@wildfishconservancy.org).
