LaHave River watershed habitat restoration, invasive species research and removal project

• Organize and attend public events to educate the public about Atlantic salmon in the Southern Upland Region. (ex. Invasive species catch and keep fishing tournaments with interpretative and educational booths)
• Install educational/interpretative signage in high traffic/popular fishing areas along the LaHave river.
• Continue an invasive species removal project in areas where Atlantic Salmon presence has been confirmed. This will involve angling/electrofishing designated sites from May 1 to September 30.
• Perform instream and riparian restoration work in the West Branch sub-watershed of the LaHave river. Recent electrofishing surveys have confirmed the presence of multiple life stages of Atlantic salmon and few invasive species.
