In this video we briefly discuss the removal of the Great Works Dam on the Penobscot River in Maine. We also highlight some work the USGS is doing to document river conditions before and after dam removal.

In 1986, Congress directed the USGS to regularly report groundwater-level changes in the High Plains aquifer system. To comply with this directive, the USGS compares water levels measured every two years. By measuring water levels across the entire aquifer in one year, measurements made two years later enable calculation of changes over time.

In this video we visit a USGS gaging station on the Carrabassett River near North Anson, Maine, station 01047000. We briefly discuss the manned cableway at the site and highlight some features of the gaging station itself.
