MPP Graydon Smith announced that the province is investing $75 million in rehabilitating ten dams across the province, including the Baysville and Huntsville Dams.
The announcement was made yesterday in Baysville by MPP and Minister of Natural Resources, Graydon Smith, along with local leaders.
The funding will support essential repairs, including concrete resurfacing and restoration of deteriorating areas at the Baysville Dam, with work set to begin in 2025.
