I know they took one out of the Kennebec a few years ago, somewhere between Augusta and Waterville. Sidney maybe?

Fish ladders or fish lifts allow dams and fish.

The enviro-luddites win another one.

Sometimes these old dams don’t even produce electricity or hold back floodwaters. They’re basically ancient relics impeding fish production.

My solution is much quicker and way cooler: Use them as bombing targets for the Air Force! Fast demolition! Target Practice! It’s a two-fer!

They took out the Tuckaseegee dam at Dillsboro, NC to save the Endangered Elk-Toe Mussel!

Prettiest little 50kw hydroelectric (read "Renewable Energy"!) dam around. The Greenies pulled a major extortion on Duke Power to get this done.

This has NOTHING to do with “rescuing fish”!
This is all about “screw human beings and productivity”.

If it hasn’t been effective in flood control, that is due to ignorant water release rules.

Franklin Roosevelt was borderline for a communist. But even communists in those days would never have tolerated this kind of ****. If anybody had ever walked up to FDR and suggested dynamiting any sort of a dam or hydroelectric plant for the sake of lizards or fish, that would have been the last day of that idiot’s life, Roosevelt would have ordered him taken out behind the barn and shot through the head.

The purpose of UN Agenda 21 is to zone all private property out of existence and herd all the human cattle into high-rise corrals where they can be inventoried and controlled until the time for the Final Solution arrives.

All a lot of people care about is how they taste.

In case anyone missed the subtext, it’s simply this: Fish are now more important than people.

WTSHTF, don’t come to Maine looking for food, including a good fish fry.

Grilled me a 21” trout on this past week end...good for the tummy and good for my pocketbook.

start of a multimillion-dollar project


How about a multimillion-cent project? Use dynamite or other cheap explosives.

The entire job could be done in a few days....not years.
