Work has begun to open Whitford Brook into the Mystic River

From USFWS Northeast Region:

"And magnificently we will flow into the mystic" - Van Morrison

Work has begun to open Whitford Brook into the Mystic River to once again allow fish like alewife and blueback herring to magnificently flow to 4 miles on improved habitat. The dam removal project will also enhance flood control and create new commercial fishing opportunities. http://1.usa.gov/1kICWom#StrongAfterSandy
