About the Project
Each spring, trained volunteers count river herring swimming up the fish ladder on the Ipswich Mills Dam. Since 1999, IRWA has organized this yearly count in order to estimate the number of river herring returning to the Ipswich River to spawn. Annual results and video monitoring can be found on the project website.
