About
Us
 The Lake Champlain Fish and Wildlife Resources Office was established for fish
and wildlife resource restoration, development and conservation in
accordance with the provisions of the Lake Champlain Special Designation
Act of 1990 and the Daniel Patrick Moynihan Lake Champlain Basin
Program Act of 2002.
The Lake Champlain Office works in Vermont and New York through Cooperative
Agreements with partners on sea lamprey control to restore fisheries and
to restore aquatic, wetland, and riparian habitats in the Lake Champlain,
Connecticut River, and Hudson River watersheds. Cooperators
include
the
U.S. Department
of Agriculture, Vermont Agency of Agriculture, Vermont Agency of Natural
Resources, The Nature Conservancy, New York Department of Environmental Conservation,
recreational anglers, farmers, and other landowners. These restoration efforts
improve fish and wildlife habitat through the establishment of healthy streams
and
riparian buffers, assisting
local farmers with improved land management,
and providing important water quality benefits.
