Beaver Dam Overflow Woes Prompt Towns to Seek Solutions

By MyFM’s Claire Beverly – A beaver dam is causing headaches for town officials in Milford and Medway. A beaver family has apparently built a dam on a culvert that runs under Alder Street in Medway and that’s been causing Stall Brook to overflow onto Maple Street in Milford. With state help the beavers have been carefully caught and relocated but Patch reports Milford’s Town Engineer is asking Medway officials for permission to go in and remove the dam, although they will have to hire an environmental consultant to oversee the removal.
