Dam Removals in Massachusetts

Tuesday, May 28 at 6:30 pm at the Conant Free Public Library, 4 Meetinghouse Hill Road in Sterling, MA

Across New England, aging and unsafe dam infrastructure has led to an increase in dam removals. These dam removals can provide significant public safety and ecological benefits, from a reduced risk of flooding to restored river connectivity. Supported by the MA Division of Ecological Restoration, the Nashua River Watershed Association is offering an educational talk about dam removals in Massachusetts, covering a general overview of why and how unsafe dams are removed, and what changes you might expect to see in your community as a result.

Space is limited; registration required. Register online through the library or call 978-422-6409.
