Beginning Monday, June 26, 2023, and continuing throughout the week, divers will be completing invasive plant removal at Legion Pond.  Divers will be targeting and removing curly-leafed pondweed using a technique called “diver assisted suction harvesting” (DASH).

Divers will return for another week, beginning Monday, July 3, 2023.  Plant removal during this time will focus on curly-leafed pondweed, as well as European naiad, which proliferates later in the season.

If you have questions, please contact the Public Works Inspector, Jessa Kellogg at 207-752-7242.
