The National Fish Habitat Partnership (NFHP) launched a new, publicly accessible Projects and Accomplishments Dashboard highlighting fish habitat projects funded and supported by NFHP partners.
The Dashboard allows users to explore project locations via an interactive map. Users can view details about individual projects and summaries of NFHP accomplishments using various filters such as project year, location (e.g., state, congressional district), and focus (e.g., species or habitats). Project types include on-the-ground habitat restoration, habitat and species assessments, and partner coordination - highlighting the array of efforts NFHP employs to protect, restore, and enhance fish habitats.
“The data shared in the Projects and Accomplishments Dashboard are extremely important for telling our story of protecting, restoring, and enhancing fish habitats across the U.S.,” said Robert Boyles, Chair of the National Fish Habitat Board. “We are excited to release this Dashboard to the public in an effort to increase awareness of NFHP fish habitat conservation projects that have been implemented in every state. The hundreds of projects included in this Dashboard are a testament to the value of teamwork among many conservation partners that is fundamental to who NFHP is and how we accomplish everything we do.”
The Dashboard also highlights the transformational landscape-scale accomplishments of NFHP and its partners, including conserving over 8,500 miles of river and coastal habitat, and nearly 95,000 acres of habitat while collaborating with over 1,600 organizations across the United States. Since 2006, NFHP conservation projects have generated over $380 million in leveraged funding for a total of $61 million in support of fish habitat conservation.
