GMP Watching Water Levels At Hydro Stations

Green Mountain Power says they’re monitoring water levels at their 32 dams and hydro stations across the state. Heavy rainfall over the last two days has been drenching the state.

Spokesperson Dorothy Schnure says they’re very focused on the four dams on the Lamoille River, where water is highest so far. She says water levels are above typical spring highs.

GMP says they’ve been in contact with Vermont Emergency Management as well as officials in communities that could be affected. They’re working with Milton officials to notify residents along the Lamoille River to be aware of the potential that additional heavy rains could cause flooding.
