“The BRRT is playing an important role in restoring the free flow of the Brandywine River, reinvigorating the opportunity for shad and other aquatic life to travel up the stream to spawn, as they have for millennia. Many of these dams, constructed more than a century ago, have harmed our environment and put public safety at risk without providing power for the mills along the Brandywine anymore. I can’t tell you how excited I am at the idea of a clean and free-flowing Brandywine River.” — U.S. Senator Chris Coons (DE)
