In 2025-2026, the program is currently directly caretaking seven properties and providing funds to support staff and purchase equipment and supplies to undertake O&M activities. The contract also supports the ongoing efforts to acquire new mitigation properties and the compliance monitoring program of all 64 previously acquired easements.

In 2010, the State of Oregon and Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) entered into a fifteen year agreement to permanently settle wildlife mitigation responsibilities for the federal Willamette River Basin Flood Control and Hydroelectric Project in the Willamette subbasin. The Willamette Project includes 13 multi-purpose dams and reservoirs as part of the Federal Columbia River Power System. The Parties to the Willamette River Basin Memorandum of Agreement Regarding Wildlife Protection and Enhancement (MOA) determined that settlement would be accomplished through the protection of an agreed number of acres that, once protected, would permanently settle the federal mitigation requirement. BPA agreed to provide specific funding amounts for the purchase of lands in fee title or conservation easement, as well as the protection and maintenance of this acreage. These annual budgets reflect the agreed upon yearly amounts of funding for the operations and maintenance of the WWMP by ODFW. Since 2010 ODFW has had an annual PISCES contract for program O&M.
