Tim Burnley & Megan Brandt, AGFC Stream Habitat Program

Join us for our monthly meeting featuring an exciting and informative presentation from Tim Burnley, Stream Habitat Coordinator with the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission! Tim will be joined by Megan Brandt, Trout Habitat Coordinator, for a deep dive into the Trout Habitat Program and its ongoing efforts across the state.

Sediment is the number one pollutant in Arkansas and the United States. With over 90,000 miles of flowing water in Arkansas, the number of possible streambanks with erosion problems can cause significant problems to our aquatic resources.

One thing we are looking forward to hearing more about is the Stream Habitat Program’s efforts to assist landowners in developing an appropriate course of action to restore and stabilize eroding streambanks and how they can assist with the process of navigating appropriate funding sources and necessary permitting. If you have been on our rivers, you know that much of the bank is private—so a public-private partnership must be part of any solution.

So join us at the Whole Hog Cafe, 2516 Cantrell Rd, Little Rock, AR 72202. If you're a member, we'd love to see you...if you're not, we welcome you. Be our guest! We'd love to show you what AFF is all about!
