Regional Efforts & StreamNet

The figure describes the 11 groups that contribute to the implementation of StreamNet.

The wide horizontal box at the top represents the StreamNet Program, which is a cooperative fisheries management information and data dissemination project in the Columbia River basin and the Pacific Northwest.

Under the StreamNet Program box there are 4 columns of boxes for each of the 4 groups that contribute to the implementation of the StreamNet Program. These 4 group of boxes are described below.

A hyperlink to a page containing the detailed text from this figure is included in the caption.
