WATERTOWN, New York (WWNY) – Two projects to create new spawning habitats for native north country fish are complete.
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation announced Friday that the projects in Chaumont Bay and in the Black River near Dexter will help walleye, lake sturgeon, lake whitefish and cisco.
The state says the new spawning habitats for native fish species are critical for local economies and ecological diversity in the region.
