Watch TV news clips of the event: WLBZ TV2        WABI TV     In May, staff attended the Blackman Stream Fishway Dedication coordinated by Andy Goode and the Maine Council of ASF. The event was a true celebration, complete with five alewives from the Veazie fish trap ceremoniously slipped into the fishway. It was well-organized and well-attended, with a welcoming overview and thanks by Bucky Owen and Andy, words by federal partners and representatives of the Leonards Mills board, among others. Here are links to the BDN article and a story on WLBZ TV. Also in May, The Nature Conservancy released their summer issue of their national magazine, with a feature article on the Penobscot project, with special emphasis on the Penobscot Indian Nation's history on the river and contributions to the project. Please take a moment to view the videos produced by Sean Fitzpatrick - including a project flyover video and a gorgeous video of Butch Phillips speaking about the significance of the restoration effort to him and the tribe. NOAA and TNC collaborated on a publication that highlights restoration projects funded through ARRA: Investing in Nature: Creating Jobs and Restoring Coastal Habitats, and here is a link to the excerpt on the Penobscot project.      In April, Yale 360 online magazine featured an article by John Waldman on sea-run fisheries decline and status on the East Coast, and held up Maine projects as promising examples to follow for restoration.     If you have not been to our web site in awhile, we have added a Voices of the Watershed page, and periodically update it with videos and audio-taped interviews.
