Final Report from United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) of the Fisheries Evaluation of the Frankenmuth Rock Ramp on the Cass River at Frankenmuth.

12/2/2019

0 Comments

 
The rock ramp project was completed in 2014, and there were several years of pre- dam removal and post-dam removal analysis done to evaluate its effectiveness.

​As the study indicates, all target species have the ability to pass the structure, providing them with access to important spawning area for the first time in more than 150 years.  There are obviously social and economic benefits as well that are not part of the study including new opportunities for recreational use of the river now that the dam has been removed, as well as additional opportunities for fishing.
 
The complete final report is attached by PDF.
