Dam projects in Wayne County moving forward
Newswatch16 s Courtney Harrison explains how progress is now being made in repairing unsafe dams and when water is expected to return. Author: Courtney Harrison Updated: 6:57 PM EDT April 15, 2021
WAYNE COUNTY, Pa. Several ponds in Wayne County have sat nearly empty for years because of the dams being unsafe.
The last time people who live at White Oak Pond near Waymart were able to be on the water was in 2015. The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission drained White Oak and three other ponds in Wayne County because the dams were found to be hazardous. If water broke through, it could cause damage downstream.
