I have lived in Augusta for nearly 40 years. The recent flooding has been a rite of spring, but it was totally preventable had the river been dredged to allow this runoff.
Gardiner is the only municipality to a have a deep-water public boat landing. If Augusta would have the foresight to have the Kennebec River dredged, this would open Augusta to the larger boat traffic.
