Upper Midwest Stream Restoration Symposium

PRRSUM hosts an annual symposium on bringing together regional stream restoration practitioners for networking and knowledge exchange. As the stream and river restoration field is inherently interdisciplinary, our stream restoration practitioners come with various backgrounds and professions - engineers, hydrologists, ecologists, government regulators, geomorphologists, etc. - and the goal of the annual UMSRS is to provide the opportunity for these varied perspectives/professions to interact and learn from each other.
