UKBAC has hired Resource Environmental Solutions (RES) to conduct advanced flow analysis and channel design to guide restoration planning on key portions of the South Fork Sprague River. This work will ensure we understand river dynamics accurately and that any restoration work will create optimal long-term ecological function and support agricultural resilience. The design process carefully considers both the positive and potential negative impacts of restoration on agricultural productivity, while addressing long-standing challenges related to habitat degradation and water quality to balance restoration goals with ag viability.

We will provide the infrastructure to qualify the most beneficial projects for funding, whether it be public or private funds. The infrastructure will include introductions to parties who will be important to the project’s success, initial project design aid, science resources, modeling resources, scaling resources, grant writing, engineering, publicity, and internet positioning.
