dam-l FW: Dam Removal & Fish Passage
I received this from the Hydrology Listserve and thought it would be a great
addition to our Dam-L server. I'm not sure what exactly Laura AS Wildman's
project was, but as she indicates, there are several interesting references
related to Dam Removal and Fish Passage.

Dear hydrologists: Here's a set of references about dam removal that I
thought might be of interest to some of you. Best regards, John Dracup

>Hello Fish Folk,
>
>This is a list of references I gathered last year with your help. I am
>posting the full list now to thank-you all for the valuable information you
>sent my way. Our project is going well and we have recommended removing
>several consecutive dams. I believe I sent a shorter version of this list
>some time ago, soon after receiving your responses. It is a rather
informal
>list, so please don't hold me to the specific reference layout. I listed
>the information I thought would be helpful in looking up these references.
>I broke the references down into sections, emphasizing those references
>relating specifically to dam removal. The fish passage and habitat
sections
>are a bit slim because I figure many of you have plenty references on that
>subject. Some of the references are just newspaper articles or project
>reports, not formal papers.
>
>I also put together a short literature search on Sediment Transport
Relating
>to Dam Removal, listing past dam removals and how they dealt with the issue
>of sediment transport. If any of you are interested I'll post that later
>after I get a chance to check it over (once again it is very informal, I'm
>not looking to publish!).
>
>Thanks again! Hope to see many of you at the Annual AFS Meeting this
August
>in Hartford, Connecticut. If you have any questions about the area just
>give me a call or e-mail. I live about 5 minutes outside of Hartford.
