Pokemouche River

Fish habitat restoration is to be done in 18 of the main tributaries of the Pokemouche river over a five year period. This will be done with the assistance of Fisheries and Oceans Canada and the New Brunswick Department of Natural Resources & Energy. No work will be carried out without a watercourse alteration permit from the New Brunswick Department of the Environment. We also plan to install stream incubators for salmonids in each of these tributaries with a capacity of breeding 20,000 eggs per year. Therefore, fish paradises will be created and the increase in salmonid population in these streams will certainly have a positive impact on the main river over the long term.
