Enhance fish passage accessibility and improve population estimates within known spawning areas for the Trispot Darter in the Big Canoe Creek watershed. Project will remove two large culverts from an identified priority restoration site and replace with a bridge structure to improve the hydrologic regime, monitor fish before and after restoration, conduct an assessment to estimate spawning site populations, and conduct surveys in non-spawning habitats.
