Dam and Seawall Repair or Removal Program

The Dam and Seawall Repair or Removal Program offers financial resources to qualified applicants for projects that share a mission to enhance, preserve, and protect the natural resources and the scenic, historic, and aesthetic qualities of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

The Dam and Seawall Repair or Removal Fund was established in 2013 by the Massachusetts Legislature to promote public health, public safety, and ecological restoration. Additional funds have also supplemented the program with monies authorized in the EEA Environmental Bond. The fund accepts applications on a rolling basis. The application deadline for fiscal year 2023 was February 3, 2022.
