NOTICE TO MARINERS 

October 23, 2005

Champlain Canal

Mariners are advised that heavy rain has elevated water levels along much of the Champlain Canal, and the Erie Canal between Utica and Waterford. Bridge clearances have been reduced and excessive current and debris may be expected. Certain sections of the Canal System may be closed in the near future if navigation on these sections becomes unsafe.

For updates and information, mariners are advised to monitor 1-800-4CANAL4 and www.canals.state.ny.us.
