Woolwich selectmen, fish commissioners and the contractor working on the fish ladder at Nequasset Dam will be looking at an old valve at the dam at 4 p.m. today, Woolwich Town Administrator Lynette Eastman said.

The selectmen are not expected to take any votes or conduct business other than observing the inspection, Eastman said in a telephone interview Wednesday afternoon.

But the public has to be notified, and members of the public can attend if they wish, because a majority of selectmen will be there, she said.

The Wiscasset Newspaper received an announcement at 2:30 p.m. on Wednesday that the majority of selectmen would be present.

The valve has not been having a specific problem of late but the town was interested in having the contractor look at it along with doing the ladder work, Eastman said.
