To restore self-sustaining populations of native sea-run fish and the overall ecosystem of the Penobscot River by improving access to nearly 1,000 miles of historic river habitat.
About
The Penobscot River Restoration Project is a collaboration between the Penobscot Indian Nation, seven conservation groups, hydropower company PPL corporation, and state and federal governments, to restore 11 species of sea-run fish on the Penobscot River while balancing hydropower production. This extraordinary project brings hope for the future, and a plan to restore the ecological integrity of the Penobscot River watershed and revitalize the rich history of cultural traditions and economic opportunities in communities up and down the river. During 2010 the first part of this project was completed with the purchase from PPL of the 3 dams encumbering the Penobscot; namely, Great Works, Veazie, and Howland Dams. In 2012 Great Works dam was removed from the river; in 2013 and 2014, the Veazie Dam was removed. In 2015, fish by-pass was constructed at the Howland dam site. In 2016, Howland project was completed and river quality monitoring continued.
