  "projectDescription": "The Poliak Pond Dam Removal Assessment project completed a scientific assessment of dam removal and the restoration of natural conditions in Umpawaug Brook, a tributary to the Saugatuck River.  The removal of Poliak Pond Dam would restore natural riverine functions in the lower section of Umpawaug Pond Brook, restore a natural pond, improve natural habitat for resident fish and American eel, and provide access to upstream habitat.",
