Aiding Fish, Birds and Wildlife

As a critical member of the overall management of water resources in Northern California, we take pride in assisting fish and wildlife throughout the Sacramento Valley.

From the Headwaters to the River Mouth

We are involved in several habitat projects to support endangered Chinook salmon during key life stages.

Key Life Stages of Salmon

We are involved in several habitat projects to support endangered Chinook salmon during key life stages.

Hands-On Approach

For more than three decades we have taken a hands-on approach to solve the problems our native and endangered species are facing along the Sacramento River. Whether it be creating spawning habitat north of Redding, installing fish screens in the middle river or flooding fields for fish and bird habitat.

Agreements to Support Healthy Rivers & Landscapes

Generally known as the process for “Voluntary Agreements” (VAs), the Agreements to Support Healthy Rivers and Landscapes are a watershed-wide approach to flows and the activation of the landscape for ecosystem restoration and water supply reliability in the state. This transformational process represents a collaborative integration of the latest science, dedicated funding, and actions to integrate flow and physical habitat to improve and protect the Delta and its rivers while preserving adequate water supplies for 27 million Californians.

The Sacramento River Settlement Contractors are playing a leadership role in the Agreements and since 2018, have begun implementing projects and process so that we can increase water supply reliability for cities, farms, fish, wildlife, hydropower production, and recreation.
