Powder Ridge Pond Focus of Site Visit Today

Middlefield's Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Agency has scheduled a site walk of the property's pond at 9:30 a.m. Saturday morning.

 

Members of the town's Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Agency will visit Powder Ridge this morning to hear a plan to dredge the pond located at the base of the ski mountain.

If approved, the proposal submitted by Powder Ridge Mountain Park and Resort would allow the company to increase the pond's capacity from 4 million to 8 million gallons, thus providing all of the water necessary for snowmaking.
