Idaho Falls, ID – Trout Unlimited (TU) has hired an Idaho native and experienced land resource expert to head up its Idaho Western Water Office.
Kim Goodman, who was raised in eastern Idaho, will serve as the director of TU’s Idaho Water Project. The Project works cooperatively with landowners and state and federal resource agencies to protect and restore trout, salmon and steelhead habitat in the state.
Goodman formerly worked as a land restoration specialist with the Teton Regional Land Trust and served in the Idaho Field Office of the Nature Conservancy.
“Kim Goodman brings a wealth of knowledge and a long-time working relationship with Idaho landowners to the position. She will be a tremendous asset in our efforts to cooperatively protect and restore Idaho’s trout, salmon and steelhead fisheries,” said Mike Clark, the director of Trout Unlimited’s Western Water Project.
