Topic: Benthic Macroinvertebrate Results for Beaver and Antietam Creek
Speaker: Matt Lawrence, Natural Resources Biologist, Fishing and Boating Services, MD DNR
When: Monday, February 8, 2021
Sign into Zoom: 7:15 to 7:30 p.m.
Program: 7:30 p.m.

Matt will present the results of both the 2020 benthic macroinvertebrate sample collection in the Antietam Creek watershed and the 2020 Beaver Creek electroshocking fish survey. The benthic macroinvertebrate samples were collected by volunteers with the Antietam-Conococheague Watershed Alliance (including SVTU members). The discussion will include the metrics generated from the benthic data and what the results mean for the targeted streams (Little Antietam, Beaver Creek, and some Beaver Creek tributaries). The 2020 trout survey will present results on current Beaver Creek trout populations and trends.
