Ariel Trahan, Anacostia Watershed Society director of river restoration programs, pulls a handful of young mussels out of a cooler during a mussel release event at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, Washington, , April 1, 2022. The Anacostia Watershed Society came to JBAB to teach DC LEARN students about mussels and how they will be used to help clean the Anacostia River, while also conducting research on the best locations for mussels to live so they can clean the river.
