The Massachusetts Riverways Programs has developed the pilot River Instream Flow Stewards (RIFLS) to help local groups identify, document and restore rivers and streams suffering from abnormally low flows. Through this process, citizens and local officials will learn about the importance of healthy streamflow, work together to restore more natural flow regimes, and establish high quality streamflow data records for local, regional and state uses.
