Restoring Connectivity in the Sunday River and Martin Stream Watersheds, Maine
-
Subwatersheds of the Androscoggin River contain some of the finest intact and healthy brook trout habitat in the state of Maine. This project will remove two fish passage barriers providing a total of six miles of connectivity in the Sunday River and Martin Stream subwatersheds.

Chop and Drop in Sunday River, Maine
-
The objectives of this project are to restore riverine and riparian habitats as well as to improve ecological stream processes for native brook trout in the Sunday River drainage. Stream habitats in this drainage have been degraded by poor land use practices, including timber harvesting, log driving, farming, and commerical and recreational development. A half mile long treatment of each of two tributaries will receive woody debris. These tributaries and a nearby control will be monitored for geomorphic, chemical, biological, and flow responses.

Chop and Drop in the Sunday River, Maine
-
Brook trout habitat in the Sunday River drainage has been degraded by poor land use practices, including
timber harvesting, log driving, farming, and commercial and recreational development. Much of the river
and its tributaries are unstable, over-widened, and lacking in deep pools, thereby reducing nursery and
adult brook trout habitat. Although degradation is being addressed through a comprehensive watershed survey and main-stem restoration effort, the causal problem of accelerated runoff has not been addressed. This proposal will assess the efficacy of adding woody debris to reduce peak flows, create pools, and trap organics to enrich depauperate headwater streams.
