Citizen-Based Fishway Monitoring
Ozaukee County, project partners and volunteers conduct fisheries and wildlife assessments in support of multiple ongoing restoration and monitoring projects. Report the number of each fish or wildlife species seen on the Mequon-Thiensville Fishway using the
reporting form.
Citizen-based monitoring of the video feed is an integral component of ongoing fish and wildlife monitoring efforts in Ozaukee County. Volunteer monitoring helps assess diversity of the local fish community, timing and duration of fish spawning runs, and presence of invasive species. This unique monitoring opportunity is also available to individuals who may not be able to volunteer in the field.
