Major Projects
The biologist/mentors of the DFG Fortuna office work for the Anadromous Fisheries Restoration Grant Program with the goal of restoring river and estuary salmon habitat. We assist private landowners, non-profit organizations, and public land managers with prioritization, planning, funding, permitting, implementation, and monitoring of salmonid habitat restoration projects.
Examples of Work
The biologists for DFG Fortuna act as grant managers to administer funds to salmonid habitat improvement and salmonid monitoring projects. Each biologist has a geographic area of Northern California to cover. and we are all managed by Gary Flosi the supervisor here in Fortuna.
