CREDDP has two purposes: to increase understanding of the ecology of the Columbia River Estuary and to provide information useful in making land and water use decisions. The program was initiated by local governments and citizens who saw a need for a better information base for use in managing natural resources and in planning for development. In response to these concerns, the Governors of the  states of Oregon and Washington requested in 1874 that the Pacific Northwest River Basin Commission (PNRBC) undertake an interdisciplinary ecological study of the estuary. At approximately the same time, local governments and port districts formed the Columbia River Estuary Study Taskforce (CREST) to develop a regional management plan for the estuary. The study are extends to Cape Lookout, but little information is specifc to Netarts.10amarine mammals1 aJeffries, Steven, J1 aColumbia River Estuary Study Taskforce  uhttps://netarts.library.oregonstate.edu/node/14431
