The Topsham Select Board has voted to join the effort to restore the Androscoggin River to health and prosperity after decades of blockage and neglect. The unanimous vote to support improvement in migratory fish passage at the Brunswick-Topsham dam comes a month after Brunswick officials signaled support for a new fish ladder. The Topsham resolution, sponsored by Free the Andro Coalition, comes as the dam comes under review for relicensing by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
