Monday's flooding destroyed a 104-year-old lowhead dam on the Chagrin River in Gates Mills. It was the last remaining dam between the river's mouth and Chagrin Falls. The storm also damaged the Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District's Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant in Cuyahoga Heights and led the sewer district to temporarily divert untreated wastewater directly into the Cuyahoga River.
Update: the Gates Mills dam probably won't be rebuilt. Its absence is expected to improve water quality and fish populations.
Update 2: repairs are underway at the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant.
