Project Results

In 2025-2026 our boards approved $9.2 million for 72 fish and wildlife projects to conserve and enhance fish and wildlife in watersheds impacted by BC Hydro dams. As the projects proceed, we will share results and project outcomes here, including final project reports.

We share project results in our annual reports and project outcomes, through our Coastal, Columbia, and Peace region e-letters, social media, and this page.

Our projects can have immediate benefits to species and ecosystems. For example, if we fund a project to remove a culvert, fish passage can be improved right away. Other projects may take longer to show results. Our funding of recovery efforts for endangered Northern Leopard Frogs, caribou, and Vancouver Island Marmots are examples of where a longer-term commitment is needed before results will be evident.

High-value grizzly corridor protected

Coastal Region — Twenty hectares of high-value habitat near D’Arcy in the Bridge-Seton River Watershed has been secured. The area is a crucial corridor, connecting the threatened Stein-Nahatlatch grizzly bear population with the more numerous South Chilcotin grizzly bear population.

Eight caribou cows born in maternity pen

Columbia Region — A caribou maternity pen is supporting the recovery of the Central Selkirk herd. In 2023, 10 cows were put into the pen and eight calves were born. Members of the Ktunaxa Nation shepherded the pen to ensure the health and safety of the caribou.

Health assessments completed on 24 Stone's sheep

— Two herds of high-risk Stone's sheep are monitored to guide habitat enhancement and mitigate population decline. In 2023, 24 sheep were captured and their health was assessed, showing no significant evidence of major pathogens.

Project Reports and Databases

To make it easy for you to find project reports and results, we prepare and update searchable spreadsheets for each of our regions. Use these spreadsheets to find the report you want. Contact us anytime if you need help to find a FWCP project report.
