  • Armstrong Dam Removal Feasibility Study Final Report
    Armstrong Dam Removal FEASIBILITY STUDY Monatiquot River - Braintree, Massachusetts Prepared for: In partnership with: Prepared by: FINAL REPORT DECEMBER 2016 This page intentionally left blank. Executive Summary Armstrong Dam Removal FEASIBILITY STUDY – DRAFT REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Project Purpose The purpose of this project is to evaluate the feasibility of restoring access for diadromous1 fish to historically native habitats in the Upper Fore River Basin including its tributaries, the Monatiquot, Farm and Cochato Rivers by removing the Armstrong Dam, also known as Hollingsworth Dam, in Braintree, MA. The ultimate goal is restoring river herring access to the 180-acre Great Pond Reservoir in the Farm River basin headwaters. Great Pond serves as a water supply source for the towns of Braintree, Holbrook and Randolph (Tri-Town Water Board). A recent river herring and spawning nursery habitat assessment (Chase et al. 2015) was conducted that demonstrated Great Pond provides suitable river herring spawning habitat. Imagery Credit: Duane Raver/USFWS Species targeted for restoration include both species of river herring (blueback herring and alewife), American eel, and sea lamprey, all of which are diadromous fish that depend upon passage between marine and freshwater habitats to complete their life cycle. Reasons for pursuing fish passage restoration in the Upper Fore River Basin include the importance and historical presence of the target species, the connectivity of and significant potential habitat within the watershed, and active public input and support. F.X. Messina Enterprises, the Armstrong Dam owner, is interested in removing the dam to The impact of diadromous fish species extends eliminate maintenance costs and liability and far beyond the scope of a single restoration potentially developing the site.

ARCHFIELD Abstract (CMR) 10.58(2)(a) were not considered when des- ignating the perennial or intermittent status of a A logistic regression equation was stream site. The database used to develop the developed for estimating the probability of a equation included a total of 305 stream sites (84 stream flowing perennially at a specific site in intermittent- and 89 perennial-stream sites in the Massachusetts. The equation provides city and State, and 50 intermittent- and 82 perennial-stream town conservation commissions and the sites in the South Coastal Basin). Stream sites Massachusetts Department of Environmental included in the database had drainage areas that Protection with an additional method for assessing ranged from 0.14 to 8.94 square miles in the State whether streams are perennial or intermittent and from 0.02 to 7.00 square miles in the South at a specific site in Massachusetts.

Also included for each station are location infor- INTRODUCTION mation, streamflow-gaging stations for which flows were correlated to those at the low-flow Streamflow statistics are useful for design and operation of reservoirs for water supply and partial-record station, years of operation, and hydroelectric generation, sewage-treatment facilities, remarks indicating human influences of stream- commercial and industrial facilities, agriculture, flows at the station. Three or four streamflow mea- maintenance of streamflows for fisheries and wildlife, surements were made each year for three years and recreational users. These statistics provide during times of low flow to obtain nine or ten mea- indications of reliability of water resources, especially surements for each station. Measured flows at the during times when water conservation practices are low-flow partial-record stations were correlated most likely to be needed to protect instream flow and with same-day mean flows at a nearby gaging other uses.

Ries, III, and Paul J. Friesz Abstract Regression equations were developed to estimate the natural, long-term 99-, 98-, 95-, 90-, 85-, 80-, Methods and computer software are 75-, 70-, 60-, and 50-percent duration flows; the described in this report for determining flow- 7-day, 2-year and the 7-day, 10-year low flows; duration, low-flow frequency statistics, and August and the August median flow for ungaged sites in median flows. These low-flow statistics can be Massachusetts. Streamflow statistics and basin estimated for unregulated streams in Mass- characteristics for 87 to 133 streamgaging achusetts using different methods depending on stations and low-flow partial-record stations whether the location of interest is at a stream- were used to develop the equations.
