Welcome to the MidCoast Watersheds Council

The MidCoast Watersheds Council is a local non-profit organization dedicated to improving the health of streams and watersheds of Oregon’s central coast so they produce clean water, rebuild healthy salmon populations, and support a healthy ecosystem and economy. The Council works in an area of nearly one million acres, including all streams draining from the crest of the Coast Range to the Pacific, from the Salmon River to Cape Creek at Heceta Head. This area includes the watersheds of the Salmon, Siletz, Yaquina, Alsea, and Yachats rivers, and more than 28 smaller ocean tributaries.
