Mission and Program Overview

Mission

The mission of Maine Rivers is to protect, restore and enhance the ecological health of Maine's river systems. Maine Rivers is directing the China Lake Alewife Restoration Initiative. Our goal is to remove dams and install fish passage at 6 barriers in the Outlet Stream between China Lake and the Sebasticook River. This will allow native migratory alewives, a keystone fish species, to make their way from the ocean to China Lake to spawn. A run of nearly one million adult alewives is anticipated. Coordination and planning with partners is a central part of this overall project, which brings together two towns, state and federal agencies, a land trust, local schools and numerous volunteers. During this reporting year we completed the construction of the technical fishway at the Box Mill dam, and finalized plans for the Outlet dam fishway. Maine Rivers has also continued advocating to remove the 3 lower Mousam River dams, and 4 mainstream Kennebec River dams.

Maine Rivers works to protect, restore and enhance the ecological health of Maine's river systems. We work on advocacy and policy efforts to protect and restore rivers and waterways. We direct and support ecological restoration efforts throughout the State of Maine.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Maine Rivers is active directing and supporting on-the-ground restoration efforts to improve the health of waters in the Kennebec River watershed.This includes tributaries to the Sebasticook River flowing from Threemile Pond, Seaward Mills Stream and Webber Pond, as well as China Lake. Our efforts include attention to the Medomak River watershed where two impassible dams and improperly sized road culverts block fish passage for native sea-run fish species. We negotiated agreements for the rights to remove a high priority dam in Sabattus Stream and another high priority dam on Lemon Stream in the Sandy River watershed. Additionally we finalized an award for federal funding from NOAA that will bring +$12M for river restoration efforts in Maine's Merrymeeting Bay watersheds over three years.

IRS990ScheduleC/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0While the Maine Legislature was in session Maine Rivers monitored legislation relating to laws and programs that protect waterways in the State of Maine. During the months that correspond to this reporting period (April 1, 2024-March 31, 2025), Maine Rivers did not engage in activities which would require reigstering as a lobbyist as per the Maine Commission on Governmental Ethics and Elections Practices. We submitted testimony in support of "Resolve, Establishing the Commission to Study Unregulated Storm Water Pollution" as well as "An Act to Establish a Climate Superfund Cost Recovery Program to Impose Penalties on Climate Polluters." Maine Rivers maintains a strong interest in the federal Clean Water Act. We monitor initiatives that impact hydropower operations, however none of these interests involved lobbying more than 5 hours per month. Regarding II-B, Line G: Direct contract with legislators, their staff and government officials, or a legislative body: Testimony delivered to Committees of the Maine Legislature is limited to 3 minutes per bill, therefore communication totaled less than one hour for this reporting period.
