CONCORD, Mass. – Due to connectivity issues the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New England District Reservoir Control Center (RCC) website is temporarily offline, according to officials from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

Hydraulic engineers from the Corps’ New England District Reservoir Control Center monitor the water levels in the region’s major rivers and the depth of snow cover (during winter) throughout the region to regulate Corps of Engineers-managed dams and reservoirs and to minimize downstream impacts from the New England District headquarters in Concord, Mass.
