Highlighted Success Stories from around Utah.
The banks along the Upper Strawberry River were re-vegetated, which resulted in reduced sediment and phosphorus to Strawberry Reservoir. The cooler, clearer water in the river has created better habitat for cutthroat trout and kokonee salmon.
By working with many property owners to improve the stream banks and develop grazing management plans, there has been a noticeable improvement in phosphorus and sediment loads. 
Fremont River Story
Damaged stream banks and inputs of phosphorus from animal feeding operations were impairing the Fremont River's cold water fishery. In stream projects, revegetation of banks and relocation of feeding operations have improved the river's fishery.
Spring Creek Story
Animal feeding operations in the Spring Creek watershed had resulted in high concentrations of nutrients, coliform bacteria contamination and low dissolved oxygen. Restoration of banks and removing runoff from animal operations has restored the water quality of this small stream.
Little Bear River Story 
The Little Bear River had high total phosphorus levels, which threatened downstream reservoirs and the local fisheries. Restoration of grazing areas and river banks has restored the upper segment of the river.
Main Creek Restoration Story 
Main Creek in the Wallsburg Watershed had high levels of both phosphorus and E. coli, but following extensive restoration of the stream banks, water temperatures are lower and it now supports its cold water fishery designated use.
