John Frachella, American Whitewater regional coordinator has announced that Great Northern Paper will be releasing 400-450 cfs on the Canada Falls section of the South Branch of the Penobscot on September 7, 8 and 9 followed by 600 cfs on the Seboomook section of the West Branch beginning September 10 through the month. While not optimal boating levels, John points out that these should be welcome following a recent drought and that any welcome rain could well augment these. Please contact the dam at 207-723-2328 for further details.
