Conservation Resource Alliance used our support to orchestrate the removal of Sabin Dam on the Boardman River in Michigan. Sabin is the last of three dams to be removed as part of CRA’s Boardman River Dam Removal Campaign.  The removal of Sabin Dam also marks the completion of the most comprehensive dam removal project in Michigan’s history, restoring 20 river miles to their natural flow for the first time since 1894.
