Acid Rain Mitigation Project is an integrated approach to recovering Atlantic Salmon rivers and hinges upon combatting the effects of acid rain using lime dosers, helicopter catchment liming, addressing instream physical habitat restoration, and conducting scientific studies and monitoring to address knowledge gaps.

The NSSA is expanding our acid rain work by developing a land-based catchment liming program which aims to repair soil chemistry to the benefit of downstream water quality while simultaneously provide benefits to forest, wildlife, and sustainable forestry operations.
