A local Baltimore Canoe Club has cut out 11 miles of deadfalls from the Gunpowder River. Some of these deadfalls have been in the river for over 10 years. I have heard the DNR knows who is responsible but it has not been said whether the responsible party(s) will be prosecuted.

Low flows coupled with this devastating loss of habitat do not bode well for the fish, especially the larger fish, in the river. It could take years for the river to recover this lost habitat.

If any of you could let the DNR know about your outrage over this it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

*EDIT* Not only did they remove deadfalls, the cut live trees along the bank below Falls Road.
