About Rapidan Institute
Rapidan Institute was created in 2020 to enable ACP to focus on comprehensive fisheries and floodplain habitat restoration in the Rapidan and Robinson River Valleys. The Institute’s operational strategies include the enhancement of soil, plant, and animal biodiversity, river reconnection and whole floodplain restoration using innovative and cost-effective process-based strategies, and development of emerging conservation-friendly agricultural and environmental markets. The flagship program of Rapidan Institute is the Rapidan Fish Passage Project.
About the Rapidan Fish Passage Project
The Rapidan Fish Passage Project (RFPP) will boost the health of mid-Atlantic anadromous fisheries through removal of the Rapidan Mill Dam, the #1 dam removal project in the Chesapeake Bay basin. A subsidiary of ACP purchased the dam and nearby property in 2022. In early 2024, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration-Marine Fisheries Service selected this project for funding.

The Program Director will direct ACP’s efforts to transform Mid-Atlantic river management through innovations in conservation, biodiversity, and climate mitigation programming. We are looking for candidates who can lead a partnership of contractors, state and federal agencies, non-profit organizations, and the community in the removal of the Rapidan Mill Dam in Rapidan, Virginia to restore the river to free-flowing above and below the dam. This is a three-to-four-year grant-funded project and we expect to hire a candidate who will commit to completing this project.
