KAT videographer Matt Fern captures footage of Frank E. Bob, habitat restoration assistant with the Lummi Nation Natural Resources Department.  Bob is describing how the department placed large pieces of wood along Bells Creek which connects to the north fork of the Nooksack river to create pools and shade for spawning coho and steelhead salmon.  Years of removing wood from the stream as well as clearing the brush, trees and growth along the shore destroyed the natural habit for salmon. Salmon is essential to the economy and culture of the Lummi Nation in northwest Washington. This visit was one of many trips KAT is making with staff from the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian. Collected footage will be edited and used for curriculum material that exhibits sustainability of culture, economy and community of four Tribal environmental projects located within the United States.
