Trout Unlimited is applauding an ambitious New York stream restoration initiative included in a $3 billion proposal announced by Gov. Andrew Cuomo this week. The “Restore Mother Nature Bond Act” was highlighted in Cuomo’s 2020 State of the State address.

Our scientific work on the biology, behavior, and ecology of steelhead and rainbow trout focuses strongly on mechanisms influencing life histories, or the strategies these fish use – such as anadromy and residency – to make best use of their environment. As one example John McMillan, Trout Unlimited’s Science Director for the Wild Steelhead Initiative,
USFWS fish passage funding provided by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law will support TU projects in Priority Waters across eight states
2023 was a good year for Great Lakes coldwater conservation, marked by an influx of federal funding for necessary infrastructure upgrades.

The proposed Uinta Basin Railway poses a significant threat to Colorado River’s Gold Medal waters.
The data show conclusively that the Pacific Northwest’s climate is warming. The Snake River basin will experience hotter temperatures in the summer, which will make water conditions in the lower Snake River more problematic than they are at present. High water temperatures in the Snake under current conditions can take a devastating toll. In 2015,

The short answer is no. Rebuilding salmon and steelhead populations will require increasing the number of adults that return to spawn relative to the number of juveniles that migrate to the ocean. This is known as the smolt-to-adult ratio, or SAR. However, in the past 25 years, salmon and steelhead SARs have failed to reach 2
