Thanks to your support, in late April, WaterWatch was able to leverage another $79,000 for the second and final phase of this project. Now, we're on the verge of completing the project and securing major benefits for the Rogue River and its fish. This summer, we expect to have contractors install the remaining pipe and complete construction of the fish exclusion device at the Gold Hill Irrigation District Diversion dam to complete this improtant project for the Rogue's fish.
Once completed the project will prevent fish from entering the district's diversion and give the district control over the amount of water that enters its system. This will leave more water in the Rogue River and help solve one of the major fish passage problems on the main stem Rogue River.
Please help us complete this project to protect migratory and resident fish and leave more water in the Rogue River.
