Mission: The Ducktrap Coalition is an association of diverse organizations, including municipal, State, and Federal agencies, citizens' groups, non-profit conservation organizations, and environmental education programs.
We work cooperatively with land owners in the watershed to protect and restore the natural and scenic features of the Ducktrap River and its watershed, unique and valuable resources that are important to the health, enjoyment, and economy of residents of the watershed, the surrounding communities, and the broad public.
Prominent among these natural features are the Ducktrap River Atlantic salmon, a genetically unique population that is one of very few remaining wild Atlantic salmon stocks in the United States.
Geographic area served: Ducktrap River Watershed
Staff: The Land Trust has 4 full-time staff, 3 of whom allocate part of their time to the Ducktrap Coalition program.
Technical resources: GIS and GPS in house
Budget: Annual budget for the Coalition program, not including the capital costs of specific land acquisition or land rehabilitation projects, ranges from ca. $30,000 to $40,000. Land acquisition and land rehabilitation projects can add hundreds of thousands of dollars to this annually depending on the conduct of the projects.
