American shad documented in the Musconetcong River after 300 years

The three of us had a small part to play in these restoration projects while in our former roles and it is great to know that shad and striped bass are back in a watershed they haven’t had access to in nearly 300 years due to old mill dams.  This is exciting news and demonstrates clearly the positive impacts of removing obsolete dams on our rivers and streams.
