Hudson River above Troy Lock

The Hudson River, above the lock at Troy, is no longer part of the estuary. This site has boating, kayaking, recreational and subsistence fishing, and occasional swimming. 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.
