Our Work
Streambank Restoration
AWP is working with partners to identify restoration opporunities throughout the watershed. Currently, AWP is focused on the Florida River and its tributaries below Lemon Dam.
|
Project Mapping
AWP leverages the power of GIS to map and analyze data for project identification, information transfer, and visual depiction of project milestones.
|
Water Quality and Quantity Improvements
AWP's work to identify and improve water quality and quantity throughout the watershed results in projects that address habitat, recreation, and water availability for all users.

Ranchmen's-Terrell diversion Improvements
AWP is working near Aztec New Mexico to remove an aging diversion structure, construct a new rock weir in the Animas River, construct a new diversion structure and associated piping of the R-T ditch to improve water delivery, protect native fish populations, and improve river channel stability. In conjunction with the USFWS, AWP will assist in the installation of radio monitoring equipment at the project location to track endangered fish populations in the Animas River at Aztec, NM.
Prior to the construction of the channel features and diversion infrastruction, AWP worked to remove russian olive stands in the riparian area below the diversion structure. This work will allow for native willow and cottonwood to continue to thrive in the floodplain areas adjacent to the animas providint habitat and structure to the river corridor.

Florida River Restoration Opportunities
AWP is working with partners and historical data to identify priority restoration opportunities on the Florida River. This work will guide the next several years of restoration work below Lemon Dam to improve water quality, habitat, and river function along the Florida River. A forthcoming Story Map will be available . . . stay tuned!
