Waterbird migration, breeding, and habitat use, Study plan Section 10.15, Initial Study Report /

The goal of this study is to collect baseline data on waterbirds migrating through and breeding in the Susitna-Watana Hydroelectric Project area to enable assessment of the potential effects of the Project and to inform the development of appropriate protection, mitigation, and enhancement measures....
