Description

Abstract: Management of Oregon's diverse steelhead resource is directed by federal court mandates (US vs. Oregon), co-management with the Treaty Tribes (Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs Reservation of Oregon, Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation, Nez Perce Tribe and Yakama Indian Nation), legislation, Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission policy, agreements between ODFW and other agencies, and administrative direction from ODFW. The Steelhead Plan contains policies, goals, objectives, strategies and actions that guide the management of steelhead statewide. The plan recognizes the biological diversity among steelhead populations and the varying issues and challenges facing steelhead management throughout Oregon, and therefore allows basin plans to tailor management to fit specific circumstances.

Purpose: This plan is a revision of The Comprehensive Plan for Production and Management of Oregon's Anadromous Salmon and Trout, Part Ill: The Steelhead Plan, adopted by the Fish and Wildlife Commission in 1986. The Steelhead Plan is Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife's (ODFW) statewide overview of steelhead management and is part of a larger planning program to develop a long-term approach to conserving and utilizing Oregon's fish resources. Species plans, along with basin plans, are a primary means of implementing ODFW fish management policies. They provide a general framework for basin planning and subsequent management of individual populations by providing background information, identifying information needs, suggesting management approaches and defining allowable activities. The planning process allows the public and other agencies to participate in developing ODFW management programs.
