Water barge dodges city rules in drought era sale
New York officials ruled they lacked authority to block entrepreneur Irving Berkowitz from selling 210000 gallons of water he brought into the city by barge. The water, bought from Peekskill, was stored under a drought restriction exemption after Berkowitz spent over 50000 on barge refitting. DEP reversed course after the complaint and announced policy change. In a separate item, Penn Yan authorities recaptured 17 year old Robert Carley who escaped Yates County Jail by slipping fences and was found riding a shion neve on County Route 29 in Gorham town.
