Water flows freely in Freeport after local organizations remove three dams

NEWS CENTER MAINE • October 25, 2023

The waters of Frost Gully Dam in Freeport are now free-flowing for the first time in over a century thanks to Maine Water Company. The organization removed three constricting dams this week, after determining they were negatively impacting wildlife. Maine Water partnered with Trout Unlimited, the Freeport Conservation Trust, and several other federal, state, and local agencies and organizations to remove the dams that were originally used for water supply purposes.
