This free, all-day workshop will describe how culverts and dams act as barriers in Hudson River tributaries, and what we can do about it. We'll share what information is currently available and focus on moving from assessments to actions to improve stream connectivity and reduce flood hazards in communities.
There are over 10,000 culverts and over 1,000 dams on tributaries to the Hudson River estuary, and this infrastructure can block fish, wildlife, and flood flows in streams. This workshop will discuss opportunities to develop shared solutions for streams and communities.
