< Back to News RoomSeptember 7th, 2017 |

Monocacy Creek is a High Quality Coldwater Fishery and a Class A wild trout stream, but a run-of-the-river dam was degrading habitat, water quality and obscuring fish passage. Dams were removed to restore natural flow and wildlife habitat while reducing flooding and erosion. To further improve stream conditions and habitat, a native riparian buffer was planted along both sides of the stream.
