Removal of the beaver dam
Sullivan, Michael J.
===========================================================
The permits authorizing the removal of the beaver dam have been signed by agents of the Board of Health and the Conservation Commission and forwarded to the Norfolk County Mosquito Control. I spolk to Caroline Haviland from Norfolk County Mosquito Control this afternoon and depending upon the weather tonight and tomorrow, they may start breeching the dam tomorrow. As noted earler, it will take several days to fully remove the dam. Medfield DPW has also been alerted in case they need to assist. Mike Sullivan
