The Western Division of the American Fisheries Society (WDAFS) established the annual Riparian Challenge to encourage the conservation and sound management of riparian habitat in the western United States.  Each year, the WDAFS recognizes outstanding achievements in riparian management by bestowing “Excellence in Riparian Management” awards on three projects, including one from each of the following categories: U.S. Forest Service projects, Bureau of Land Management projects, and projects completed by other entities.
