This workshop is designed for professionals responsible for road-stream crossings.

We will cover road-stream crossing projects from site assessment to permitting and installation.

Emphasis is on maintaining and restoring aquatic habitat and economic values of the stream.

Workshop presenters include professionals from state and federal agencies and statewide non-profits.
