Salmon Habitat and River Enhancement
-
SHARE is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) looking to restore fish passage and natural stream function to benefit Atlantic salmon and other native fishes. Since 2005, SHARE has improved or opened up a lot of previously inaccessible habitat – over 100 miles (2800+ habitat units). The majority of SHARE's work is within the Machias and Old Stream watersheds, as they've been recognized by biologists as some the highest priority for Atlantic salmon recovery.
