2020 RESTORATION PROJECTS

2020 was a banner year for restoration projects.  Resource Institute works with landowners, communities, nonprofits, for-profit, and government agencies to restore streams, rivers, and wetlands.  Most projects are multi-year projects, taking about three years to complete.
