All about damsThe majority of large lakes and ponds in Rhode Island are in fact reservoirs or waterbodies created by building a dam. Often those dams were built sometime ago, and local residents may not even be aware that the dam exists. Unfortunately dams require care and maintenance, which is often overlooked due to lack of awareness or even knowledge of who is responsible for the dam. The resulting inattention ocassionally led to significant problems such as dam breaches. This page includes links to information about dams in general as well as to Rhode Island specific regulations and articles, and documentation of the recent history of dam management in Rhode Island.
