Wetland habitat improvement

Hi everyone

Pongakawa Wetland Reconnection

Hi all,

Some of the Fish Passage Action Team were recently involved in a very satisfying restoration project.

It is rare that we get the opportunity to completely remove culverts in an effort to restore fish passage so we wanted to share this with you.

See what two workers and a small excavator can manage in a day.

Alex put together this short “Glide-Show” so you can scroll through it at your own pace.
