About this award
This $1,411,634.35 Project Grant awarded by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under the National Fish Passage Program (CFDA 15.685) supports the final phase of a 25-year fisheries restoration effort in the Rio Costilla watershed in New Mexico. The grant to Trout Unlimited, Inc. will address the remaining fish passage barriers within the watershed to establish the largest metapopulation of Rio Grande cutthroat trout within its historic range. Additionally, the project aims to expedite fish passage work in the Ponil Creek watershed for the Canadian lineage Rio Grande cutthroat trout. The activities funded through this award include removing barriers, restoring aquatic connectivity, and implementing other habitat improvements to benefit native fish species and their ecosystems. As the parent organization, 21 Schrems West Michigan will also receive subawards under this grant to support broader watershed restoration goals.
Description
Work to date has included eradication of non-native species and the reintroduction of pure RIO grande cutthroat trout, RIO grande sucker, and RIO grande chub into 120 stream miles, 10 lakes, and one reservoir. The vision of the project has always been to establish the largest metapopulation of RIO grande cutthroat trout within its historic range, and this project will culminate in realizing that vision by addressing and removing every remaining fish passage barrier within the project area of the RIO costilla watershed. Additionally, the project aims to expedite fish passage work in the ponil creek watershed for the canadian lineage RIO grande cutthroat trout.
