Ecology & Habitat of Salmon & Trout in the Susitna Basin Recreation Rivers

The Susitna River Coalition and Trout Unlimited have been closely monitoring the proposed changes to the Sustina Basin Recreation Rivers Management plan.

This robust management plan, that manages 6 high use waterways in the Susitna drainage, is currently under review by the Department of Natural Resources. The six waterways included in the plan include Alexander and Lake creeks and the Deshka, Little Susitna, Talachulitna, and Talkeetna rivers.

In light of these proposed changes, Sarah O’Neal, from the University of Washington, took a deep dive into all peer-reviewed, government, and grey literature regarding the ecology and habitat of Pacific salmon and other sport fish inhabited by the six designated recreation rivers.

Join us on March 14 at 6PM via Zoom and FacebookLive, as we welcome Sarah O’Neal to discuss what she learned from her exploration into the existing knowledge from these important, high-use, anadromous waterways and how we can maintain important habitat as the management plan is revised.
