"In concert with the Jefferson Land Trust, the North Olympic Salmon Coalition (NOSC) is working with the Kodama farmers to restore 21 acres - nearly half of their property - for Chimacum Creek salmon-rearing habitat." - Peninsula Daily News
"In nearby Jefferson County, for instance, a causeway that used to carry cars and block salmon from going to some pristine habitat has been taken out between Indian Island and Marrowstone Island." - Kitsap Sun
"A roughly $13 million fish barrier correction project has wrapped up on time and on budget – resulting in a new 440-foot bridge that spans Kilisut Harbor along State Route 116 in Jefferson County." - WSDOT
"In the end it may be one species, one type of fish, but it also may be one example to offer hope to the rest of Puget Sound." - Kiro 7 News
"The causeway is gone, replaced by a 440-foot-long concrete girder bridge that now carries the lanes of state Highway 116. Around 90,000 cubic yards of sediment and old road — roughly 9,000 dump truck loads — has been hauled away to reveal a restored tidal channel few are old enough to remember." - Kitsap Sun
"The reconnection of the two long-separated bodies of water represents the culmination of a multi-year effort by the coalition to restore not only a historic migration route for endangered salmon but also the marine ecosystem of Kilisut Harbor, which has suffered from elevated temperatures and stagnant, sediment-filled water." - Peninsula Daily News
"The man-made structures were replaced with a 450-foot-long bridge between Indian and Marrowstone islands this year, improving tidal flow, fish passage and water quality, plus giving salmon access to 2,300 acres of nearshore habitat." - Northwest Treaty Tribes
"Salmon aren’t the sole benefactors of the connection either. Shorebirds, shellfish, eelgrass and waterfowl will also reap the rewards of the returning water, not to mention the area’s amphibious, bipedal primates." – Port Townsend Leader
"This restoration effort will have long-lasting benefits to the area's ecosystem, including overall water quality improvement, influx of nutrients, and the restoration of a historic fish migration route out to the Pacific Ocean." – Defense Visual Information Distribution Service
