Description
This option will consist of retaining all of the dams as they currently exist. Water levels and impoundment size will
not be changed. Repairs will be made to the dams and associated structures, but the spillway at Boardman Pond will
not be modified. The dams will not be modified to allow increased fish passage. The Brown Bridge Dam will not be
modified to reduce adverse impact of warm water discharge. The fish ladder at Union Street will be maintained and
the fish weir operated by the MDNR will be maintained.
