State eyes closing flooded Potomac river safety debate
Olympic canoeist David Hearn was arrested by National Park Police during the January flood on the Potomac. A judge threw out the case. Maryland officials consider legal river closures during high water to prevent drownings, while kayakers led by Rich Hoffman of American Whitewater oppose hard restrictions. The Potomac is state controlled and cannot be closed under current law.
