Description

American rivers will be awarded up to $7,395,464 over three years to restore priority habitat in the cape fear watershed for several migratory fish species, including american shad, river herring, striped bass, atlantic sturgeon, and american EEL. Through this project, three dams upstream of a series of U.S. Army corps of engineers' locks and dams will be removed, and pre-removal activities will be initiated for two additional dams. The removals will open nearly 100 miles of main stem river and 1,024 miles of perennial streams in the watershed. This effort will reduce flooding in surrounding flood-prone communities by restoring floodplains, and reducing flood elevation in the project areas behind the dams. The work is also anticipated to encourage new recreational and economic opportunities in the region.
