Nisqually Refuge Restoration
, Nisqually Indian Tribe and the US Geological Survey are collaborating in monitoring the restoration of an estimated 762 acre tidal reconnection in the Nisqually Delta. The Refuge dyke removal is located across the river from the Red Salmon Slough Restoration.
While the Refuge Restoration is the largest action on the site, ongoing adaptive management is being conducted at the Nisqually Delta scale. This page primarily documents efforts leading up to the refuge restoration.
