The good news I can offer is that there is no extra flow coming into Alton Bay from the Merrymeeting River.
The state did work on the public boat ramp on Merrymeeting last Fall. As a result, Merrymeeting Lake was at a very low level all winter. The dam folks recently put in the final boards to raise the level to normal for us.
The lake is not yet at full level so there is no water coming over the dam and into the sluice-way leading to the river. So, the normal flow from the Merrymeeting River into Alton is reduced... for now.
