The South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SC DNR) is offering this grant to support essential fish and wildlife management activities. This grant is specifically for the purpose of continuing critical ecological assessments at the Richard B. Russell and J. Strom Thurmond reservoirs. Building on successful prior initiatives, the SC DNR seeks to fund ongoing creel surveys at various locations within these major waterways. The primary objective of these surveys is to thoroughly evaluate the ecological effects that pumped storage operations have on the region’s fish populations. The new scope of work for this grant outlines detailed tasks for a comprehensive and continued monitoring and assessment effort, specifically designed to analyze the impacts of four distinct pumped storage units. This continued research is vital for informed resource management and conservation.
