Maine's Atlantic Sea-Run Salmon Commission begins a program to remove old dams that bar fish from migrating upstream to spawning grounds (see Columbia River, 1938). The Commission starts to restock the Aroostook, Dennys, Machias, East Machias, Narraguagus, Penobscot, Pleasant, Sheepscot, Union, and other rivers (see Anadromous Fish Act, 1965).
