Brook Trout Habitat Improvements to McIntosh Brook, Allegany State Park, New York
-
Allegheny State Park contains the most intact and widespread distribution of wild brook trout streams in western New York. Brook trout growth and abundance in McIntosh Creek are limited by a lack of large woody debris and deep water pools during summer low flow conditions. This project will add large woody debris to enhance habitat structure and deep water pools to increase wild brook trout growth and abundance, and improve the recreational fishery. Pre- and post-enhancement monitoring will be conducted and used to demonstrate this simple and low cost approach to improve brook trout habitat.

Sevier Road Crossing Stream Restoration in the Nine Mile Creek Watershed, New York
-
This project will restore fish passage across the Sevier Road crossing and reconnect over 1.5 miles of brook trout habitat in an unnamed tributary to Nine Mile Creek. Project objectives are to restore channel stability and habitat function to 250 linear feet of stream using natural channel design and evaluate brook trout population response to stream channel and fish passage restoration.
