Dam Removal & River Restoration

Fish Passage
Bank Stabilization
Stream Restoration

SumCo Eco-Contracting has completed over 60 dam removals throughout New England and the Mid-Atlantic.  We are proud to play our part in removing aging dams that no longer serve their original purpose while doing the careful work of river restoration, fish passage, bank stabilization, and stream rehabilitation after the dam comes out.  Dam removal has many benefits including:
 


• Restored fish passage
• Reconnected instream and riparian habitats
• Improved water quality
• Enhanced riverine functions such as sediment and organic matter transport
• Eliminated owner maintenance costs and liabilities posed by potential injury or dam failure
