Scott Brook Fish Passage Restoration, ME_FY13 Project
-
This project restored ecological stream function within Scott Brook from Big Lake to the Stud Mill Road. It also provided unhindered upstream access to approximately 3 miles of habitat for Brook Trout and other native species. A prolonged sedimentation problem (water overtopping road) that was a direct result of beaver’s plugging the old undersized culvert was minimized by installing a bankfull spanning structure.

Whitethorn Creek Habitat Restoration, WV_FY07 Project
-
Project partners teamed up with landowners in the Whitethorn Creek basin to install livestock exclusion fencing and related infrastructure, install Natural Stream Design features, plant trees, and control invasive species to restore more than one mile of stream habitat and 16 acres of riparian vegetation.

Sunday River "Chop and Drop", ME_FY07 Project
-
This project evaluated the impacts of adding large woody material to streams in order to attenuate flows and determined that adding this material resulted in positive trends in reducing flashiness of flows, improving Brook Trout habitat, and trapping sediment. However, one of the lessons learned was that a longer monitoring period than the three-year life of this project is needed. Overall, the project determined that "chop and drop" can be a relatively inexpensive and simple method to attenuate variability in flows, create, improve and restore Brook Trout habitat, and trap sediment.
