Alpena FRO Biologist Heather Rawlings attended the Huron Pines Resource, Conservation and Development (RC&D) annual meeting in Hillman, Michigan on February 3, 2007. 

The meeting was held to showcase watershed restoration projects completed in the 2006 field season, partnerships created, and general activities of the RC&D. 

Resource agency reports were given by a number of groups including the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, Michigan Department of Natural Resources, Natural Resource Conservation Service, U.S. Forest Service, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. 

Rawlings provided highlights of  the Alpena FRO 2006 Partners for Fish and Wildlife and Fish Passage Programs field activities, outlined planned projects for 2007, and projects for which we have submitted proposals for funding through a number of Service sources.  The Alpena FRO is working closely with Huron Pines RC&D on a number of large projects and initiatives for the 2007 field season.
