Description

This work will benefit passage of endangered species act-listed atlantic salmon and five other migratory fish species for a 150-mile river reach. A flow management plan for matagamon lake will also benefit downstream critical salmon habitat. The east branch contains the highest amount of high-quality salmon habitat in the penobscot river watershed. The penobscot indian nation, working collaboratively with its partners, will increase capacity of the tribe by funding fishery biologist positions, and build capacity to manage and steward the migratory fish resources both on and off tribal trust lands. The penobscot indian nation will implement an outreach strategy to further engage with watershed stakeholders to expand on restoration opportunities.
