The States of Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, and Alaska and the Pacific Coastal and Columbia River tribes (all hereafter referred to as the PCSRF grantees) have received Congressional PCSRF appropriations from the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) each year since FY2000. Funds are used for salmon recovery and conservation projects carried out by local governments, tribes, state agencies, public partners, watershed councils, soil and water conservation districts, and other organizations and entities. The PCSRF is used to leverage additional state and local funds and volunteer participation from local and private sources. The PCSRF is one component of many activities and projects that have been initiated to recover Pacific salmon and steelhead listed under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). 收起
