Wallacks Branch of Bob's Creek Fish Habitat Improvement Project
-
This project will remove five jack dams and install five single or multi- log vanes. Removal of the jack dams will provide improve fish migration and impact seven miles of stream. The construction of the log vanes will ensure that the trout have suitable habitat to thrive.

Watershed-Based Approach to Channel Stabilization and Sediment Control in Pleasant Run Creek
-
Excessive sediment from channelized tributaries of the Hatchie River (TN) are degrading downstream aquatic habitat. Pleasant Run Creek is a channelized tributary to the Hatchie River, exhibiting significant soil erosion and channel incision problems. This project seeks to implement channel stabilization measures on private lands that will improve riparian habitat on Pleasant Run Creek and reduce sediment loading to the Hatchie River.

West Virginia Brook Trout Distribution Assessment
-
The EBTJV range wide assessment of brook trout identified a distinct gap in our knowledge of the status and distribution of brook trout in West Virginia. This project will compile existing data on brook trout in southeastern West Virginia, conduct field surveys to fill in gaps, and collect samples for micro-satellite DNA analysis. The results will be used to produce a quality assured GIS based data set for the entire state of West Virginia that includes spatially explicit information on brook trout reproduction, population status, habitat and water quality.

Whitethorn Creek Restoration, West Virginia
-
Whitethorn Creek, the most significant tributary in the Thorn Creek drainage of the South Branch of the Potomac, is historically recognized as supporting one of the best brook trout populations in West Virginia. This population has been significantly reduced in recent years as a result of land use impacts and two devastating flood events. The purpose of this project is to remove threats from agricultural impacts and in-stream habitat loss caused by the flood related activities by restoring approximately 1.5 miles of stream habitat and reestablishing 24 acres of riparian vegetation.

Whitethorn Creek Restoration, West Virginia
-
Whitethorn Creek, which is the most significant tributary in the Thorn Creek drainage of
the South Branch of the Potomac, is historically recognized as supporting one of the
best brook trout populations in West Virginia. This population has been significantly
reduced in recent years as a result of land use impacts and two devastating flood
events. The flood events altered instream habitat quality and washed away a large
portion of riparian cover in the watershed. Following the loss of the relatively stable
vegetated riparian corridor, livestock grazing has prevented re-growth and has caused
widespread bank instability as a result of unregulated stream access. will result in the restoration and protection of approximately one mile of
degraded brook trout habitat. This project will result in the reconnection of upstream
spawning and rearing habitat to the mainstem of Thorn Creek. Reestablishment of the
riparian corridor will provide lower overall water temperatures in addition to refuge areas
during lower flows. The instream restoration will create habitat zones and a more stable
hydrology through this reach and downstream.

Wood Additions into the Sheepscot, Narraguagus, Machias Watersheds, Maine
-
In 2007, Project SHARE and the Department of Marine Resources Bureau of Sea-Run Fisheries and Habitat and private land owners undertook a "chop and drop" large wood addition project. Wood was added to streams with the intent to increase habitat complexity and salmonid survival. This project expands the large wood treatment locations to include the Sheepscot drainage, along with treatment locations on the Machias, East Machias and Narraguagus River drainages. It adds nine additional large wood treatment sites enhancing approximately 4 miles of stream for brook trout.
