In rebuttal: High water is killing Tripp Lake

SUN JOURNAL • July 7, 2023

In rebuttal to Dorthea Seybold’s letter, Maine’s DEP needs to protect water resources (June 23), she is mistaken. No one has “blasted” a beaver dam, and there has been no meeting with the Department of Environmental Protection. Tripp Lake has been artificially high for several years and this is doing untold damage to the lake and shore. The answer is to get the lake down to its natural level and keep it there. High water is killing the lake. ~ Fern Bosse, Norway
