Executive Director of Iowa Rivers Revival Outlines Priorities on WOI-DT

Molly Hanson, executive director of the Iowa Rivers Revival, outlined the group’s mission and ongoing priorities during in-studio interview today with WOI-DT morning anchors Elias Johnson and Sabrina Ahmed.

Hanson discussed the need for Iowans to become active in river restoration efforts and called for additional state funding to improve water quality and continue the modification or removal of low-head dams to reduce safety hazards and increase water recreation opportunities around the state. She also emphasized the need for state officials to set a turtle trapping season and daily limits.
