2024 Projects

Five projects that the EBTJV endorsed for FY24 will receive a total of $240,604 in NFHP-FWS funds. These projects exemplify the kinds of science-based conservation and restoration activities that will enhance or restore populations of wild Brook Trout. These projects pull in multiple partners - and over $800,000 in leveraged funds - to ultimately improve fishable populations of Brook Trout by improving cold water habitats, removing barriers to connectivity, and controlling non-native species. They will improve safety for communities, enhance climate resiliency, and add habitat complexity to benefit multiple species. Congratulations to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Project SHARE, The Organization for the Assabet Sudbury and Concord Rivers, and Trout Unlimited
