However, our personnel still managed to advocate for, and support, measures that promote clean water and fish habitat. Rogue Riverkeeper worked with community members to officially name and protect Blue Heron Creek in Phoenix. We also sought and received protection for a springs complex in the same area that would have been paved and built upon. The unhoused population living along riparian areasespecially along Bear Creek continues to be a challenge that crosses jurisdictions and authorities. As a small non-profit organization, Rogue Riverkeeper participated in collaboratives like the Bear Creek Restoration Initiative where partners including Jackson County and other city representatives work to protect the ecological function of Bear Creek and its riparian area while supporting humane and safe conditions for all community members. We helped pass the Living with Beaver bill that will help private landowners improve waterways and wetlands in the state. Jet boats on the Upper Rogue remained a challenge. 226152 0 0 ForestWatch Program: Thousands of supporters spoke up over the course of the year to weigh in on local timber sales and other projects. With the help of litigation partners, conservation allies, and local community members, our efforts to protect wildlife and forests: Protected and retained old-growth forests surrounding Lake of the Woods on the Fremont-Winema National Forest. Filed a legal challenge to the Medford District BLMs plan to accelerate old-growth logging in the Late Successional Reserve land use allocation. Prevented logging the Late Mungers and Penn Butte old-growth timber sales above the community of Williams. Oregon. Thwarted salvage logging clearcutting and road construction on steep-erosive decomposed granitic slopes in the headwaters of the Salmon River in the Klamath National Forest. Convinced the Shasta-Trinity National Forest to drop or modify hundreds of acres of logging that would have removed late-successional Northern spotted owl habitat. Achieved in the modification, improvement or cancelation of numerous projects across the region. Prevailed in litigation to protect Oregon spotted frog fens and wetlands from grazing near the community of Chemult. 210781 0 0 Climate Program: KS Wild worked extensively on two national rulemaking efforts to advance protections for old growth and mature forests. The National Old Growth Amendment and Northwest Forest Plan amendment are efforts to change some of the underlying guidelines for how our public forests are managed. KS Wild members submitted over 1,000 comments (adding to the 500,000 comments nationwide) to the Department of Agriculture and the Department of the Interior advocating for durable protections for mature and old-growth forests. We also hosted our 2nd annual Forest Defender Training Series, with more than 100 community members submitting several hundred personal emails and postcards to elected leaders. 124923 0 0 ALL OTHER CONSERVATION PROGRAMS & OUTREACH 124923 0 0 780641 true true false true false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 true 12 true false false false false false true true false false false false false false false false X 8 8 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true false true true false false OR CA X THE ORGANIZATION 5414885789 PO BOX 102 ASHLAND OR 97520 SHANNON CLERY BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 LAUREL SUTHERLIN BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 MICHAEL DOTSON EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 X 91000 0 0 TRACY HARDING TREASURER 1.00 X X 0 0 0 LESLEY ADAMS SECRETARY 1.00 X X 0 0 0 JEFF SCROGGIN BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 MANUEL DE AQUINO PRESIDENT 1.00 X X 0 0 0 JUAN PABLO SAN EMETERIO BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 MAUD POWELL BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 91000 0 0 false false false 835264 4125 835264 1474 0 0 2492 2492 2492 2492 23173 5188 17985 0 17985 4201 4027 174 174 857389 4140 0 17985 91000 29162 33151 28687 591631 499121 20874 71636 17660 12979 2231 2450 87475 67338 7427 12710 62596 48187 5314 9095 14250 10970 1210 2070 1305 825 480 0 28200 11124 14976 2100 10793 10793 0 0 4809 197 1361 3251 59931 41269 4555 14107 908 908 0 0 11748 7117 3397 1234 16772 13256 2807 709 5584 5584 0 0 19792 15267 1669 2856 5352 3233 1438 681 OUTREACH EVENTS 5081 2231 0 2850 CONTINUING EDUCATION 129 0 129 0 DUES & MEMBERSHIPS 1080 1080 0 0 1036096 780641 101019 154436 188791 88467 167087 37840 41536 92535 2500 748132 95108 672816 653024 14052 25506 1084282 899872 65534 52685 65534 52685 X 1018748 847187 0 0 1018748 847187 1084282 899872 -178707 7146 X false false false false X 0 858738 1065131 778959 881557 835264 4419649 0 0 858738 1065131 778959 881557 835264 4419649 31468 4388181 2055 1055 1480 902 1474 6966 0 0 4426615 0.99130 0.98330 X 0 0 0 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 1354 600 1954 1034141 1036095 178610 44653 0 0 0 309258 309258 351048 32694 318354 0 0 87826 62414 25412 653024 FILM FESTIVALS 23173 23173 5188 23173 23173 5188 5188 17985 Pt VI, Line 15a INDUSTRY SALARY DATA IS CONSULTED AND AN ANNUAL REVIEW IS CONDUCTED FOR THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS SALARY.
