词条 | Round Pond (Connecticut) |
释义 |
Round Pond is located in Ridgefield, Connecticut, USA ({{Coord|41|18|13|N|73|32|12|W|display=inline,title|type:landmark_region:US}}). Formed by a receding glacier, it is public and is {{convert|32|acre|m2}} in size. The pond drains across the state boundary to the state of New York into the Cross River Reservoir, providing an initial flow to New York City. Once used as a reservoir for city water for Ridgefield, the spring-fed aqueduct is no longer used for that purpose. The pond gets an average of {{Convert|4.44|in}} of precipitation per month,[1] and is at an elevation of {{convert|797|ft|m}} above sea level.[2] A fishing ban enacted in the mid-19th century stands today, and the pond is no longer available for fishing.
