Lower Meander river habitat restoration work to begin this month
The Kootenai Tribe will begin construction of a river habitat restoration project upstream of Bonners Ferry in August. The Lower Meander project is part of the Tribe’s Kootenai River Habitat Restoration Program, which is improving habitat for Kootenai River white sturgeon, burbot (ling cod) and other native fish.
