Native Aquatic Species of the Gila River Basin
in Arizona and New Mexico
Blue River Barrier Site
The Blue River fish barrier is intended to prevent upstream movements of nonnative fishes from the San Francisco River to portions of Blue River populated with threatened native fishes (existing loach minnow, repatriated spikedace). Construction of the Blue River fish barrier is anticipated to be complete in May 2012.
