Falls' water-erosion woes loom over Hoosick Falls board
Hoosick Falls officials hear from Rensselaer County Executive William J. Murphy about soil erosion along the Hoosick River threatening waterworks and sewer works with flood risk. Army Corps of Engineers study and possible rock riprap fix may cost 2 000 to 3 000 dollars for the waterworks, while sewer works could require 100 000 to 200 000 dollars with federal help. The board plans to contact the Army Corps of Engineers, while other town officials discuss road tests, landfill costs, and possible joint operation to ease expenses.
