IBSS initially consulted with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board, Washington Recreation and Conservation Office, Idaho Governor’s Office of Species Conservation, and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. From these conversations, we identified several tribes willing to serve as consulting parties for long-term NHPA (106) compliance. IBSS nurtured these partnerships with local tribes and communities and tracked inputs and suggestions to draft Programmatic Agreements, THPO signatories, and Standard Operating Procedures. Our outreach efforts expanded NOAA Fisheries’ initial scope of contacts – further cultivating the Fisheries’ outreach and compliance with preservation efforts.
