Скачать или смотреть Reducing Siltation in the Santiam River

A bonus clip from our feature film project, UPRIVER, a ‘watershed film’ that explores one of the Nation’s most active river conservation movements. Within Oregon’s Willamette River system, the film focuses on people from all walks of life who are coming together to revive the health of this large river and the life it supports. Learn more at www.upriver.org.

Meet the Santiam Youth Watershed Restoration Team and join them for an improvement day at a local campsite along the South Santiam River. This group of motivated students from Sweet Home High School cares about the health of their rivers and proves it by planting native species to reduce erosion and sedimentation. Hear from the students themselves about the value of this river and why they volunteer.

The 1-hour UPRIVER feature is currently available for local screening events, and the UPRIVER classroom package is available for academic use. Exclusive UPRIVER feature film access, along with UPRIVER classroom shorts and curricula currently available with FI Membership.
