Tillamook Estuaries Partnership - "Bounty on the Bay" Fundraiser
The Tillamook Estuaries Partnership is the implementation leg of the Tillamook Estuaries Program that has invested millions of dollars of EPA money to address the Tillamook Bay Watershed's 4 priority problems. The identified problems are:
- Bacterial contamination that causes periodic closure of Tillamook Bay shellfish harvest;
- Excessive sedimentation that has reduced the volume of the Bay, adversely affected fish and wildlife habitat, and decreased the available area for recreational and commercial boating;
- Declining salmon and trout runs due to degradation of spawning and rearing habitat; and
- Flooding
