The U.S. Department of Agriculture is awarding a $6 million grant to a Maine partnership led by the Nature Conservancy that will help private forestland owners reduce the impacts that flooding has on road networks and restore more than 250 miles of fish habitat in northern and eastern Maine.
The grant announced Dec. 21 comes through the Regional Conservation Partnership Program, which is administered by the USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service.
The five-year Maine Aquatic Connectivity Restoration Project aims to replace several hundred culverts and fix fractured aquatic connectivity to over a dozen priority watersheds with the goal of restoring 250 miles of brooks, streams and rivers in northern and eastern Maine. The partnership led by the Nature Conservancy includes more than two dozen stakeholders that include private forestland owners, tribal communities, federal agencies, conservation groups and local operators.
U.S. Sens. Susan Collins and Angus King and U.S. Rep. Bruce Poliquin had written a joint letter of support for the initiative in September.
