The owner of four dams along the Kennebec River is suing Maine’s Department of Marine Resources over proposed changes that could lead to the dams being removed.
The lawsuit, from a U.S. Subsidiary of Brookfield Renewable, is challenging a proposed amendment to the state’s river management plan, which would recommend stricter fish passage requirements. That amendment recommends the removal of two dams — and a study of the proposed removal of two other dams — from Waterville to Skowhegan.
