Restoring Natural Habitats
By Emily Clegg, The Nature ConservancyPublished in Precast Solutions, Summer 2013In stewarding our natural resources, we can’t be too cautious about protecting the aquatic life in our rivers and streams. Indeed, thousands of manmade dams and stream diversions have seriously degraded and obstructed the natural habitat of our native fisheries. But that’s precisely where precast concrete can help. |

Silver Creek/State Road Restoration Project
Fish passage is a serious conservation issue in many Michigan waterways. Dams and culverts are often the culprits of segmenting fish populations – they block the passage of fish and other aquatic organisms thus reducing the amount of habitat available. On Silver Creek (Lake County), a perched culvert prevented all fish passage from the Pine River into Silver Creek meaning rainbow, brown, and brook trout were blocked from more than five miles of critical habitat. |
