SOUTHWICK — With the federal government releasing the funds needed for the design and engineering of a proposed dredging project for Great and Canal brooks, town officials were updated last week on its progress.

“They’ve been here doing site visits. They were out in boats, and out in boots and now they’re in the data gathering [phase],” said Select Board Chair Diane Gale on Monday when she updated the board on last week’s meeting.
