Hi All,
School's out so I'm excited to return to get some time on the water this summer. Check's in the mail!

River Conditions - 20kfcf+ and Club Boats

 

开云体育

?
?Hi all! ?
As you probably already know, the river has been quite high over the last couple of days. It is expected to remain high for a few more days.?

Just sending a reminder that the water flow must be under 21 kfcf for use of the club boats. ?Also, even at 20 kfcf, the flow is still something to pay attention to. ?If you head up river, consider taking the Congo route, given the swirl around the bridge pilings closer to the boathouse. And enjoy the ride back, when you head back down river.?

The flow rate can be checked via this link:<>.

Thanks! ?
Jaime


Re: Amherst Alert: Public Health Warning Ended

 

"The Town recommends that the public avoid swimming and recreation in the
Connecticut River between the Calvin Coolidge Bridge and the South Hadley
town line until June 17, 2023 at 7:00pm."

Do I understand this correctly?? From the above message from today's Amherst Public Health Alert it would seem that it is smarter to row upstream tomorrow rather than downstream.

Is that because the untreated waste has moved downstream??

TOWN OF AMHERST ISSUES A PUBLIC HEALTH WARNING ON JUNE 15, 2023

Amherst-Shield-Screen-500px-ColorT

Unchlorinated treated sewage was released from the Amherst Waste Water Treatment Plant on June 15, 2023 starting at 8:45am due to partial Wastewater Treatment Plant shut down for an emergency repair. The unchlorinated treated sewage was released into the Connecticut River at the treatment plant outfall.? See map below. Periodic releases of unchlorinated treated sewage will occur throughout the day as the repairs at the plant are conducted. Additional warnings will be issued every eight hours until the work at the plant is complete and discharges of unchlorinated sewage have ceased. We estimate that approximately 75,000 gallons of unchlorinated treated sanitary sewage has discharged as of the issuance of this warning. ?

The discharge consists of treated sewage and waste that has not been chlorinated prior to release.? Because Amherst is required to chlorinate all discharge prior to release at this time of year, this is considered partially treated wastewater.??The Town recommends that the public avoid contact with the affected water body for at least 48 hours after the discharge ceases due to increased health risks from bacteria and other pollutants.? View map??

Time of issue: June 15, 2023 ?10:30am?

Issued by: ?? ??Guilford Mooring, Superintendent Public Works, Jennifer Brown, Health Director?

Questions???Contact Amherst Department of Public Works at (413) 259-3050

I heard about this on the radio and wondered where the outfall was.?

I am surprised to learn it is so far up stream, but the map explains that.
