Waterway safety

This article was published in July 2022 and may be outdated.

Water around our generating stations is extremely turbulent this summer because of high water levels.

If you plan a day on the water, keep a safe distance away from marked-off areas when fishing, boating, or swimming.

  • Obey all warning signs.
  • Stay away from barriers that prevent access to dangerous places such as booms (temporary floating barriers) or buoys (anchored floats) in waterways.
  • Keep to clearly-marked walkways or observation points and keep away from the water’s edge as banks and rocks can be unstable or slippery.
