Ohio River Corridor Restoration

Restoration reconnects rivers to floodplains reestablishes riparian vegetation and improves channel complexity creating habitat for fish birds and floodplain species.

Habitat And Fish Passage

Reconnected side channels and removal of barriers restore fish passage and increase access to spawning and rearing habitats.

Floodplain Storage And Resilience

Restored corridors store flood waters across the landscape reducing downstream peak flows and enhancing resilience to extreme events.

Water Quality And Nutrient Processing

Riparian vegetation and floodplain soils process nutrients and trap sediments improving downstream water quality.

Community Benefits And Recreation

Restoration projects provide recreational opportunities and educational access while supporting local economies and ecosystem services.
