Flow has also been identified as a key stressor. Irrigation is the primary consumer of water from the Bow River (i.e., of the water that can be withdrawn from the river for other uses, irrigation consumes 90%). Fish and fish habitat are dependent on that water - does TTT oppose these massive water withdrawals?
A:
For now, as we are a fledgling organization, we are focusing on entrainment. As our membership and our affiliate relationships grow, we hope that our ability to focus on other trout stressors will also grow. We are, however, already in conversations with our affiliates and preparing to broaden our reach.
