The FishAmerica Foundation will be offering up to $800,000 in
grants for marine and anadromous sportfish habitat restoration projects
across the coastal United States and Great Lakes Basin area. Atlantic tomcod,
Microgadus tomcod, is a common anadromous species in many estuaries
along the Atlantic Coast of North America from the Hudson River to
Labrador, Canada (Bigelow and Schroeder 1953). That, in turn, will prevent
sediment from accumulating in the adjacent Clearwater River, which
supports populations of threatened and endangered anadromous fish. |
