Registration due Aug. 3 for Stream Restoration Workshop in Cd'A

Idaho landowners who have a perennial stream running through their property often want that stream to be as stable and healthy as possible, both for the health of their stream and the health of their property.

On Friday, Aug. 10, University of Idaho Extension is offering a one-day program titled “Restoring Idaho Streams” that includes a combination of indoor presentations on stream health, stream restoration techniques, and financial assistance programs to restore streams, followed by a field trip where participants can view stream restoration efforts undertaken in Kootenai County.

The program will begin in the meeting room of the University of Idaho Extension office in Kootenai County, 1808 N. Third St., Coeur d’Alene, at 8 a.m. on Friday, Aug. 10, and conclude in the field by 4:30 p.m.

Those wishing to participate should pre-register at the University of Idaho Extension Office in Kootenai County by Friday, Aug. 3. Registration is limited. $20 registration fee covers resource materials and refreshments.

For registration questions, contact the University of Idaho Extension Office in Kootenai County at 208-446-1680. A registration form can also be downloaded at http://www.uidaho.edu/extension/forestry. This program is co-sponsored by University of Idaho Extension and the Idaho Department of Lands.
