Dam Management

by Michael Smithem

The Dam is undergoing repairs and maintenance upgrades. We have received a permit from the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC). to replace the numerous cap stones that have fallen from the top of the dam into the lake.

Further maintenance improvements to the weir are scheduled and should begin late this fall. These repairs will improve the appearance of the Dam and also address the water level of the lake. Please take advantage of the annual water draw down to prepare your lake front for winter.
