Southeast Aquatic Barrier Prioritization Tool
-
The Southeast Aquatic Barrier Prioritization Tool aims to build aquatic connectivity in rivers and streams. The Tool provides inventory data on aquatic barriers (like dams and road-related culverts) and helps practitioners to describe, understand, and prioritize these barriers for removal, restoration, and mitigation.
Aquatic connectivity in rivers and streams is essential for fish and other aquatic organisms.
The Southeast Aquatic Resources Partnership (SARP) developed the tool with support from partners and funders.
