With the ice finally giving way to spring, work is beginning on the much-anticipated new Williams Lake Dam.
Happy Earth Day, Williams Lake!

This year will see the completion of a new Williams Lake dam that will keep the lake’s water at historic levels. Because the new dam will keep water levels high, it is now possible to breed eels in the lake – and that is exactly what is planned.
