ST. LAWRENCE RIVER – IROQUOIS DAM GATES TO BE LOWERED

[Cornwall, Ontario]: In accordance with the operating regulations of the International St. Lawrence River Board of Control, Ontario Power Generation’s Ottawa/St. Lawrence Plant Group advises users of the St. Lawrence River, including recreational boaters and anglers, that gates at the Iroquois Control Dam are currently raised but may be lowered again if conditions change on the river. This will go on for an undetermined period to assist with the management of water levels on Lake St. Lawrence.

Ontario Power Generation would like to remind all users of the river to take every precaution around its dams and generating stations across Ontario and to practice safety on Ontario’s waterways.
