Arrowsic Flood Tides project

Arrowsic ME

The Arrowsic Conservation Commission has installed several 4×4 wooden posts along roadsides where there is a history of flooding. These posts serve as platforms for photographing high water events and help ensure photos are taken from the same height, angle and place each time. The data collected will help the town better understand how often certain roads flood, how high the water rises along the road, its impact on shoreline vegetation and what flood events will mean for safe passage in the future.
