Comments:
Cross section measured with laser level and cam line. Very little bank erosion; stable. Lots of riprap on left bank. The low-head dam in this reach appears to be associated with a USGS gaging station (USGS 04288000 Mad River Near Moretown, VT) and is listed as "in service" on the ANR Atlas.
