Wildlife at Daniels Dam, Ellicott City, MD

Just a thought. Why did they not; make these functional again. Also the cost to take them down. What will the reverse ecological effects be; once they are torn down...

Where you are at the 8 minute mark is a great fishing spot...behind the falls.

[burns1210]

[BaltimoreAndOhioRR]

[xhalo13637x]

what kind of fish?

[bubba2781]

Nice video, I will be interesting to see how they remove the dam without flooding Ellicot City!

[BaltimoreAndOhioRR]

my guess is that it will be some kind of 'controlled demolition' haha . with the costs in the millions. i think there was a dollar amount given in a sun article recently.

Why is it going to be gone? I think this is the place I visited as a high schooler in the 60's when my dad was in Baltimore to call on a client.

Some conservationists or ecology groups are opposed to damming up any rivers because of the fish - they've fought for years to remove the 4 dams on the pataps. in this area. They've finally won. Supposedly, some kayakers have complained also.
