Comments:
Trees lining banks were frequently observed at waters edge (including inundation-intolerant sugar maple), indicating likely aggradation over time. Private bridge at US end of segment was moved following 2009 flood, and stream was windrowed US of bridge. Mill structure is still somewhat intact, with stream funneled through a very undersized stone culvert that is barely visible (due to sedimentation) on US end; LB mill race was accessed as a flood chute in recent flood events. This structure is more a constriction that a flow regulation at this point in time.
