Firefighters Make The Second Rope Rescue Of The Week At Croton Dam
This most recent save comes just days after first responders pulled a man from the rushing waters below the dam's spillway.
patch.comI don’t have live access to current news right now. Here’s what I can say based on recent, publicly known context:
- The Croton Dam (New Croton Dam on the Croton River, Westchester County, NY) has a history of periodic releases and inspections, sometimes triggering river closures or safety advisories when releases occur. These events can affect nearby parks and waterways for short periods, and are typically part of dam maintenance, flood control, or safety inspections.[1][2][3]
- Recent coverage over the past few years highlights multiple rope-rescue incidents and water-related safety alerts connected to Croton Dam Park, underscoring ongoing public-safety concerns around the dam and its spillway area.[4][5]
