The Grand River Conservation Authority has started with the instillation of public safety devices across GRCA dams.
The installation of buoys and booms started April 14th and is expected to wrap up in mid-May.
These safety measures are put in place to warn paddlers, anglers and boaters to stay away.
Katelyn Lynch, Director of Water Infrastructure says the annual installation of these public safety devices is one of the many ways the GRCA educates the public about the dangers around dams and is one part of their robust dam safety program.
Dams can pose serious hazards that can result in injuries or even fatalities if warning signs are ignored.
