Hudson River levels to be lowered

Water levels will be temporarily lower on the Hudson River upstream of the Glens Falls, South Glens Falls Route 9 Bridge.

Routine dam maintenance will require reducing water levels up to eight feet below the normal operating range.

The water needs to be lowered to access the project work site.

Because of the work, Glens Falls is closing the swimming area at Haviland’s cove until the maintenance is finished.
