high water could do to the dams themselves the new charles river dam and the amelia earhart dam are both about fifty years old they serve similar functions for the charles and mystic respectively they regulate the water level in the lower basin of both rivers to a level that roughly equates to mid tide in the harbor under normal conditions gates close at high tide to keep the ocean from raising the water level in the basins at low tide the river flows in the basin the river that flows in the basin is allowed to drain out the dams are both equipped with a set of massive pumps to throw the river flow over the walls into the ocean in case rain driven flooding coincides with high tide these pumps have been adequate to handle all the storms we've had over the last fifty years the dams were built to keep out the highest ocean water levels that had ever been observed storm surge levels the blizzard of seventy eight dollars and the january two thousand and eighteen storm that level seems awfully safe when the dams were built but with rising seas it is now recognized that by the latter part of this century there will be but material risk in any given year that the ocean will surge over and around these dams the flows associated with ocean storm surge are much too big for the pumps to handle so a flanking overtopping event would be severe flooding for back bay parts of cambridge and the mystic basin out to l life discussion as to how to reduce the risk of flanking an overtopping are underway in both boston and cambridge the risks depend on how long the over topping event lasts and how much water actually flows upstream a few weeks ago d c are educated the legislature about a much more proximate rigs was even a brief overtopping event groups a very early damage even cripple the pumping systems of the dams salt water could quickly flood into critical electrical and mechanical areas that are just not designed to get wet the damage could reach one hundred and fifty million dollars to repair and the entire reorganize the board per the operational rules adopted last year a selectman will become the chairman in the nd year of service and vice chairman in the rd year of
