Remove a barrier to fish passage along a perennial coldwater tributary to Lyman Brook in Milton, New Hampshire, that will provide flood resiliency for the local road infrastructure during high flow events. Project will replace an undersized culvert, open up 1.2 miles of upstream coldwater habitat for eastern brook trout, native salamanders, and other aquatic organisms, while providing long term monitoring to gauge the success of the project for aquatic connectivity and reduced flood hazards.
