organization working to conserve the agricultural and natural resources
of the Upper Snake River Valley, for the benefit of today's communities
and as a legacy for future generations.

Foundation Conservation Partnership Program is providing funding to
provide an inventory of cutthroat trout habitat conditions and restore
 wetlands
of Foster’s Slough, an ecologically important 2500 acre wetland-spring
complex within Upper Teton River basin. The funds will be specifically

Slough. This will be accomplished through streambed and vegetation
restoration, erosion control, grazing management, alternative livestock
water development and riparian fencing.
