Wyman Dam

Wyman Dam is a hydroelectric dam in Somerset County, Maine.

The dam was built in 1930 and connects the southwest corner of the town of Moscow with the southeast corner of Pleasant Ridge Plantation. Owned and operated by NextEra Energy, one of six of their hydroelectric facilities on the Kennebec River, it's named in honor of Walter Wyman, the president of the original builder Central Maine Power Company. The dam is partly earthen and partly concrete, with a height of 155 feet (47 m) and 3,054 feet (931 m) long at its crest. The dam's power plant houses three 24 MW turbine generators
