Restore Chinook salmon and reduce toxics to increase prey for orcas.
Back the slow-but-essential work that increases prey and reduces toxic stress in Puget Sound: habitat restoration, fish-passage barrier work, and enforceable toxics reduction. This strategy focuses on keeping these actions funded, coordinated, and visible so progress accumulates over time.
Why this works
Details coming soon.
Orca Conservancy

- Coordinate partners and agencies to scope projects and secure durable funding.
- Advance toxics reduction through cleanup, safer practices, and enforceable runoff and wastewater controls.
- Track progress and publish updates tied to decision windows so funding and coordination remain durable.
- Adjust priorities as climate stress and land- and water-use conflicts emerge.
