Aquatic Organism Passage is the modification or removal of barriers that restrict or impede movement of aquatic organisms. This video explores how the Native Village of Tyonek implemented this conservation practice in Tyonek, Alaska. Practice benefits:
• Reduces pooling
• Protects water quality
• Reduces elevated water temperatures
• Reduces flood risk
• Improves fish passage
The Conservation at Work video series was created to increase producer awareness of common conservation practices and was filmed at various locations throughout the country. Because conservation plans are specific to the unique resource needs on each farm and also soil type, weather conditions, etc., these videos were designed to serve as a general guide to the benefits of soil and water conservation and landowners should contact their local USDA office for individual consultation.
