The Town of The Blue Mountains would like to provide residents with an update on the current status of flood mitigation due to frazil ice within the Beaver River.

To mitigate the potential of flooding, discussions are ongoing with the respective parties to implement an agreement to lower the water level in the Beaver River. To date, an agreement has not been made.

As a result, the Town has issued a notice directly to property owners adjacent to the Thornbury Mill Pond that may be affected by flooding for their awareness.

In the event of a frazil ice blockage, the Town has contracted for heavy equipment to be in place to remove frazil ice as the Town has done in the past years.
