Island Creek/Normans Kill

The two creeks enter the Hudson at this sampling site. There are no facilities, but there is recreational boating and some kayaking through the industrial portion of the Port of Albany. Hudson Riverkeeper has sampled at this location since 2008 from May through October. Monthly testing is not frequent enough to make a safe swimming determination. Riverkeeper is advocating for high frequency testing and data reporting along the Hudson River wherever the public swims, boats and fishes.
