River Herring Survey in Montauk with PEP & CCOM

March 28 @ 10:00 am 12:00 pm

The Peconic Estuary Partnership and Concerned Citizens of Montauk will be hosting an in- person event at Big Reed Pond on March 28, from 10am-12pm. This event is in conjunction with the Annual Long island River Herring and Eel Survey.

The annual Long Island Volunteer River Herring & Eel Survey is one of Long Island’s longest running community science projects. Started in 2006, the survey engages community volunteer scientists to monitor runs of migratory river herring and American eels in rivers and streams across Long Island.

We will be covering how to identify alewife, and use the Survey 123 app to record your survey results. We will also discuss the significance of the fish passage projects in the Peconic Estuary. Please join us!
