In this short video series, Voices of Dam Removal, we explore the vital role that local and county governments, homeowners, recreational users, scientists, state and federal agencies, and non-governmental partners play in restoring rivers through dam removal. Each episode highlights the collaborative process that brings together government agencies, conservation organizations, and community members to remove outdated dams and revitalize freshwater ecosystems.
You’ll hear directly from local leaders navigating funding, permitting, and public engagement challenges. Whether you’re a municipal official, planner, or community advocate, this series offers practical insights and inspiration to help you take the next step toward a healthier, more resilient river.
