Rewatering Progress

May 25, 2021

Last week the Delaware Canal State Park staff opened the bypass gate at Easton to create a maintenance level of water in the northern end of the Canal.  There is currently water as far south as Lodi Hill Road at the Tinicum Township/Upper Black Eddy line.   Tomorrow the Park staff plans to allow the water to start flowing southward to the waste gate at the Golden Pheasant Inn.   The water will be released at this location until the Tinicum Aqueduct lining is repaired and several sinkholes are filled.
