i was just there today and the water level was pretty low , i know at clarks pond there's a busted dam which doesn't hold any water back maybe by fixing the dam the levels might stay alittle higher.
now who should i address this issue to.

There are two chances for getting dams rebuilt, slim and none. Most places are trying to breach dams wherever possible to allow streams and rivers to return to historical levels and paths.

It's not just the Mill....with the lack of snow and rain there is a lot of skinny water throughout most of the inland areas.

You need to take the request to a higher authority. Pray for rain.

I'm organizing the 5th annual Naugatuck River Canoe and Kayak race for May 5th. If we don't get any rain it's going to be a long walk down the riverbed.

Bob, I don't think I have ever seen it this low.

We just spent the morning cleaning up the Beacon Falls stretch of the river. The low water sure made it easy.

Will trout be stocked for opening day if no rain? - 04/14/12 04:37 PM

In very low water locales that is? Hope not.
Thanks for timely reply.

Like Bob Bradley said, You can pray for rain.

Or you can do a rain dance. grin
