Rep. Natalie Mihalek is set to address the public in a press conference focusing on water safety and the hazards associated with low-head dams. The event will take place on Monday, May 12, at 2 p.m. Joining Mihalek will be representatives from the Department of Environmental Protection and the American Society of Civil Engineers.
The aim of this conference is to raise awareness about the potential dangers posed by low-head dams, which have been known to cause accidents due to their deceptively calm appearance. This initiative underscores a commitment to ensuring public safety and educating communities about environmental risks.
For those unable to attend in person, live web streaming will be available. Media inquiries can be directed to Jordan Frei at 724-875-8450.
