1 Bookends of Restoration Efforts: Skokomish and Nisqually sub-basins of Puget Sound Presented by Keith Dublanica Environmental Specialist / Habitat Biologist Mason Conservation District Restore America s Estuaries Galveston, Texas November 15, 2010
2 Restoration Planning Across Multiple Jurisdictions and Habitats RAE Session A cursory comparative investigation of restoration efforts within two sub-basins of Puget Sound, Washington state * Skokomish in the lower Hood Canal * Nisqually in southern Puget Sound
3 Process Derived Outcomes Tribal Treaty Rights (U & A) of 1855 Sub-basin watershed restoration efforts Habitat Enhancement w/ ESA emphasis Flood control and water quality improv. Communication thru enhanced dialogues Ecological integrity & cultural legacies Sub-basin actions benefiting Puget Sound
4 Salish Sea Encompasses Puget Sound, Straits of Juan de Fuca and Georgia. First Nations and Native American Tribes of the Pacific Northwest were located at most of the river mouths of the subbasins. Graphic from Seadoc Society
5 Puget Sound Geomorphology Puget Trough created from glacial activities 16,500 B.P Vashon lobe of the Cordilern Ice Sheet Alpine glaciers of the montane areas Cascade Range and Mt Rainier; Olympic Range Organisms adaptation to systems Salmonid life history behaviors
6 Reconstruction of the Puget Lobe of the Cordillern Ice Sheet at glacial maximum ca. 16,500 cal yr before present (BP) (H. Greenberg, Univ. Washington, Seattle, unpubl. data).
7 The Georgia Basin of Canada & Puget Sound of the USA encompass the traditional lands of the First Nations & Coast Salish Indian Tribes. Georgia Basin of Canada and Puget Sound, USA encompasses traditional lands of the First Nations & Salish Coast Indian Tribes, also defined as the Salish Sea. The Skokomish, People of the River, descend from the Tua duq, and are located at Hood Canal s Great Bend. The Nisqually, People of the River, People of the Grass Country, descend from the Squalli- absch are located east of Olympia.

9 Usual and Accustomed Area U and A area is a treaty term that encompasses the ceded territory; Reservations are a fraction. Skokomish U and A is 2.2 million acres of Hood Canal, incl. east flanks of Olympics; reservation of 5300 acres at Great Bend Nisqually U and A is acres of eastern/southern Puget Sound, originating from the Nisqually glacier on Mt Rainier (Tahoma); reservation of 5000 acres upstream of Sound, 2/3 of which were taken by Fort Lewis.
10 Treaty Rights with the First Nations Established Reservations in 1870 Pre-dates Washington statehood of 1889 Protects Tribe s ability to continue to practice culturally significant activities i.e.: Fishing Hunting Gathering Medicine Language culture and landscape relationships
11 Puget Sound River mouths were tribal-used / inhabited T-sheets show historical channels/ shores Early agricultural conversion / modification Deltaic and estuarine processes, by definition, require tidal / river interchange
12 1855 Treaty of Point No Point The Skokomish Indian Tribe, the Tuaduq signed this Treaty along with three other Tribes, Port Gamble, Jamestown and Lower Elwha with US Territorial Governor. The tribes were granted continued cultural access to the usual & accustomed areas and stations as defined in the treaties, predating Washington statehood, as were many Pacific Northwest Indian Tribes.

37 .as we collectively nurture a future history.
38 Nisqually River Council The Nisqually Watershed Stewardship Plan is implemented through the Nisqually River Council The Council seeks to integrate the history, culture, environment, and economy of the watershed into healthy and sustainable future. A separate Nisqually River Citizens Advisory Committee assures citizen representation.
39 Points to Ponder Who and what are UPSTREAM and DOWNSTREAM? Ecological restoration is not mutually exclusive of cultural or social restoration but INTER-DEPENDENT Utilize the strengths and assets of basin dwellers and stakeholders and LEVERAGE THE COLLABORATIVE STRENGTHS, and EMPHASIZE the PARTNERSHIPS. Watershed health, integrity and well-being is a DYNAMIC PROCESS, requiring committed efforts to address sustainable and processes in a dynamic social forum. The stories of the watershed follow the thread of the river. Bridge the conflicts through consensus-based processes, acknowledging ALL histories
40 . We learn from all of the histories Wisdom of elders passed on legacies that are iterative and adaptive
