About Andy Roberts
My work centers on the conservation of freshwater mussels. I coordinate with federal and state agencies to help recover federally listed mussels and other species. This involves helping agencies reduce aquatic impacts of proposed projects like bridge and highway construction or develop ways to improve streams. I also work with researches to develop projects that benefit our scientific knowledge of mussels. Because mussels are good indicators of stream conditions, I am also involved in several ongoing mussel population monitoring projects throughout Missouri. My professional goals include maintaining trust and scientific integrity while carrying out the Service’s mission.
