Description
Conowingo Dam in Maryland,
This was my first visit ever to the Conowingo Dam, which is considered a major Eastern Maryland tourist site. For Bald Eagle lovers, this is a hot spot to see lots of Eagles as well as cormorants and other birds.
The Conowingo Dam is located in Darlington, MD on the lower Susquehanna River.
Construction of the dam was completed back in 1928. I was fascinated to learn this Dam "has been a source of renewable, reliable energy for millions of residents and businesses in the region" for a very long time; actually over 90 years! Wow! I also learned the Conowingo Dam is one of the largest "non-federal" hydroelectric dams in the United States; and It provides over 225 full-time jobs. A fun and unique place to visit. Emmy Vickers,
