North Rim awards grant to continue Deschutes River Conservancy
Foundation: Oregon Community Foundation
The North Rim Deschutes River Fund has awarded a grant in the amount of $20,000 to the Deschutes River Conservancy (DRC). With the help of the grant, DRC have achieved a five-fold increase in streamflows – water that is so critical to wildlife, fish and the quality of life for Oregonians throughout the state.
For over 16 years, Deschutes River Conservancy continues to pursue its mission to restore streamflows and improve water quality as well as working with irrigation districts and other partners to allow more water, which is diverted through irrigation canals to remain instream in the Deschutes River Basin.
