Boardman River Feasibility Study - Alternative 25 (Draft)
Subject
Boardman River Dam ProjectAbstract
This fact sheet is a summary of a detailed analysis of the alternative described above. The alternative was selected
for detailed analysis along with five (5) other alternatives by the Boardman River Dams Committee. The following
information is provided as a summary of the analysis of the alternative. Information on the existing conditions and
impacts of this alternative can be obtained by reviewing the complete report on the website. You may notice that the
description of the analysis of the alternative sometimes includes at the end of certain sentences an alphanumeric
code in parentheses. This code refers to the list of questions that was included in the Request for Proposals.
Description
This alternative would consist of retaining Union Street Dam, along with the existing fish ladder and DNR weir
operation. In addition, Brown Bridge Dam will be repaired and retained. The fish ladder at Union Street would be
operated to allow native species of Great Lakes fish and salmon and trout to pass around the dam, but invasive
aquatic species would be blocked at Union Street. Sabin Dam would be breached to allow a free flowing river to be
restored from the upstream end of Boardman Pond to Boardman Lake. Boardman Dam would be breached and
Boardman Pond would be replaced with a river. The Brown Bridge Dam would be repaired and retained without any
action to mitigate the impact of warm water discharge on downstream coldwater habitat.
