This expert panel brings together professionals with deep\, diverse experience in stream reconstruction to examine the practice from every angle: the science\, the outcomes\, the economics\, and the community impact. Join for a frank\, evidence-based conversation that asks the hard questions: When does stream restoration work\, and when does it fall short? What alternatives exist? Who bears the cost\, and who benefits?
