The Mighty Naugatuck River presented by Kevin & Sondra Zak, Naugatuck River Revival Group

For over a decade, hidden from view Hydroland’s Kinneytown Dam has silently caused the death of thousands and thousands of fish, eel & Lamprey. Hydroland’s fish & eel ladders have NEVER worked. We have documented this with video. More fish, eel & Lamprey die at the base of Hydroland’s dam than have ever passed through their ladders. Hydroland’s crumbling dam may or may not pose a safety risk to those below, but by blocking the river it definitely damages the entire valley economically.
Our program will take you on a walk through Kinneytown and how fixing it will change the river for the next 1,000 years.
The Naugatuck River Revival Group is dedicated to the eradication of trash and debris in and along the Naugatuck River; to reviving the rivers beauty; to improving conditions for the wildlife that lives in and around the river; and to educating the public about protecting the river and enjoying it safely.
