- Lake Sturgeon Restoration in Upper French Broad River — by Christin VanZant — last modified Mar 14, 2017 02:10 PM
- This is an extension of the effort to reintroduce Lake Sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) to the Tennessee River system. Lake sturgeon are reared in hatcheries in Georgia and North Carolina from eggs and milt collected from Wisconsin. Those fish are stocked in the French Broad River north of Asheville, NC. The objective is to establish a self-sustaining population in the French Broad river upstream from Douglas Dam.
- Guided Snorkel Tours in the Cherokee National Forest — by Christin VanZant — last modified Mar 14, 2017 02:10 PM
- Guided snorkeling programs demonstrate your commitment to managing the land and water in your care while highlighting a fun, safe activity in a clear, cool stream. You can help get people outside, unplugged, and immersed, teaching people of all ages about the wonderful wildlife that lives just beneath the surface of their local waterways.

- Upper Clinch Streambank Sedimentation Project — by Christin VanZant — last modified Mar 14, 2017 02:02 PM
- The project focuses on reducing sedimentation in the upper Clinch River watershed through streambank stabilization projects. Methods will include bioengineering techniques, grading, and installation of toe protection. Projects will be concentrated in developed areas of the watershed, as well as collaboration with the local soil and water conservation district.
- Spivey Mill Dam Modification, Copper Creek — by Christin VanZant — last modified Mar 14, 2017 02:02 PM
- Spivey Mill Dam is a significant fish passage barrier in Copper Creek, one of the most biologically significant tributaries in the Clinch River basin. This project will involve modification to the dam structure to minimize the impoundment and improve water quality, and river restoration to facilitate fish passage, provide in-stream habitat, and stabilize the channel. The project includes a year of pre-monitoring data, including assessment of water quality, biological communities, and sediment transport.
- Martin Creek Stream Restoration/Powell River Priority Conservation Area — by Christin VanZant — last modified Mar 14, 2017 02:01 PM
- This project will implement stream habitat restoration in Martin Creek, a priority conservation area in the Powell River watershed. The project will also involve agriculture best management practices and biological monitoring.
- Mountain Creek Watershed Project - Education into Action — by Christin VanZant — last modified Mar 14, 2017 02:00 PM
- To increase the quality of the water within the Mountain Creek watershed, by forming alliances through education and outreach, in order to implement projects that restore water quality.
- Signal Mountain Streams - Protection & Education — by Christin VanZant — last modified Mar 14, 2017 02:00 PM
- Water quality data collection, analysis and reporting for selected impaired streams on Signal Mountain. Hands-on, outdoor, water-quality education provided to local school.
- Kids 4 Clean Water Camps & Education — by Christin VanZant — last modified Mar 14, 2017 01:59 PM

- Sicklefin Redhorse Candidate Conservation Cooperative — by Christin VanZant — last modified Mar 14, 2017 01:59 PM
- A working group of partners has been actively engaged in actions to study and conserve the narrowly endemic Sicklefin redhorse since the early 2000's. In 2015, that was formalized into a Candidate Conservation Agreement. This Candidate Conservation Agreement (CCA) for the Sicklefin Redhorse (Moxostoma sp.) has been developed as a cooperative effort among tribal, state, federal, nongovernmental, and private organizations to establish a formal agreement to cooperate on actions that conserve, manage, and improve Sicklefin Redhorse populations range-wide with the goal of working to preclude the need to list the species under the Endangered Species Act. Activities include research to better understand the life history, ecology, habitat requirements, etc; population monitoring; captive propagation; and reintroduction and augmentation to expand the occupied range.
