Marshall City Forum weighs dam fate amid high cost estimates
At a July 24 public forum in Marshall, about 40 residents discussed restoring or removing the 125 year old hydro dam. FERC requires a repair or removal, with Stantec estimates ranging from 2.2 million to 99 million, citing sediment contamination and sediment disposal costs. Community members urged careful consideration as costs, safety, and environmental impacts loom.
