A culvert assessment is completed through the North Atlantic Aquatic Connectivity Collaborative (NAACC). With a stream crossing survey, one looks for streams that crosses a roadway, checks to see if aquatic organisms are able to pass through.
The survey gives you a good indication of whether or not the stream crossing is sized correctly in the event of a flood. It also checks for any blockage preventing water and organisms from moving through.
Culvert Assessments is part of stream crossing protocol and is an ACTION in Climate Smart Communities and is a FREE service.

Each high-impact action is worth points that communities collect upon completion of the action. To receive points for completing high-impact actions, you must submit documentation that verifies all requirements have been met. The points you earn count toward unlocking access to point-based grant funding. Certain high-impact energy actions are eligible for additional Action Grants. You must complete four high impact actions to be designated as a Clean Energy Community.
This scorecard shows your community’s accomplishments, the high impact actions your community is undertaking, and how your efforts compare to others in your region and across New York State.
