flag Minnesota replaced its 1911 Pine River dam with a eco-friendly park in 2022, improving safety and fish passage.

Sandy Layman’s advocacy, replaced hazardous infrastructure with a rock riffle bridge that stabilizes water flow, supports fish passage, and improves safety. flag Designed through years of planning and public input, the park now hosts events, recreation, and scenic access, serving as a model of sustainable, collaborative infrastructure renewal in rural Minnesota.
