Freeing the Cuyahoga: Old dams, which create stagnant pools of water and block fish passage, are causing some of the remaining water quality problems on the Cuyahoga River. A $3.8 million project in Kent has created a new side channel around the city's historic dam to let the river run free. The river is already responding with better water quality, improved habitat, and more diverse populations of fish and aquatic insects.
