The document discusses progress and challenges in restoring the Willamette River floodplain over the past 15 years. It outlines four key efforts that have influenced restoration: the Willamette Basin Task Force (1997), which focused on governance, funding, monitoring and data, and outreach; the Willamette Restoration Strategy (2001), which identified focus areas, actions and measures; the Willamette River Basin Planning Atlas (2002), which modeled trajectories of conservation and development; and the Willamette Special Investment Partnership (2008), which established common ecological priorities and an informal implementation network. Enduring challenges include governance, sustained funding, comprehensive data management, and effective outreach.
