MWA Stormwater Improvement Project
The Memphremagog Watershed Association recently completed a stormwater improvement project on Farrant and Lake Streets in Newport City. The improvements now collect and treat stormwater runoff from nearly 125 acres uphill of Prouty Bay and the Newport Marina. The project will prevent 1,000 pounds of sediment and 19.8 pounds of phosphorus from entering Lake Memphremagog each year.
The following video is an interview with Watershed Project Manager, Patrick Hurley, followed by the ‘Ribbon Cutting’ on the much anticipated completion of this important stormwater improvement project.
