John Tippett, the 2007 IP Conservation Partnership recipient, was recognized for his work to protect Virginia's Rappahannock River. Mr. Tippett's efforts include cooperative conservation programs and the education of stakeholders on key issues and the balance of environmental and economic benefits. His continuing initiatives on the Rappahannock include the removal of the Embrey Dam to restore more than 100 miles of spawning habitat for native fish species, mobilization of governmental agencies and real-estate developers for low-impact development, and the completion of two conservation easements on key river frontage.
Very nice video. As a Fredericksburg native I am very happy that this is taking place. Good Job John! See attached video response, from Charlottesville. I wasn't really sure it would ever happen.
Then .. Boom! LoL
