Lolo Creek watershed was one of the primary watersheds affected by the 2015 Clearwater Complex fire. Most of the watershed was burnt at a moderate to severe intensity. Due to the fire there is a high risk of road failures, landslides and debris flows that will impact the anadromous fish in Lolo Creek. Multiple funding sources have been sought to work toward addressing these risks. (Hazardous Fuel Reduction, Western Fire Managers, Legislative Funding and Pacific Coast Salmon Recovery, Landscape Restoration).

Tracker tells stories at a broad-brush level. Individual project performance measures and expenditures should not be relied upon for complete and total accuracy and should be confirmed with a project's lead implementer. Project locations subject to confidentiality provisions under state and federal law specify the location of a local conservation district or USDA service center office.
