  "projectDescription": "The Cooper River Fishway Restoration project provided access to spawning and rearing habitat for migrating fish, including alewife, blueback herring, and american eel. One fish ladder on the lower tide gate of the Cooper River has opened up four miles of river habitat that runs through a community park in urban Camden County. The project allows migratory fish to proceed clearly around two residential dams to historic spawning and foraging areas upstream.",
