Great River Hydro will be conducting required maintenance on the Bellows Falls Dam, beginning Sunday, April 26th, and is expected to last 3-4 days.
Great River Hydro will be conducting a draw down of the Connecticut River to make the necessary repairs and as a result you will see exposed riparian areas upstream of the dam.
All recreational boating and use is strongly discouraged during the drawdown period. Reduced water flow may expose previously submerged hazards and could create dangerous conditions in exposed mud flats.
After the work is completed, water levels will be restored to normal operating levels.
Please refrain from recreational use of the Connecticut River at the Cornish Boat Landing during this time frame.
