The Lansing Highway Department began removing dirt and gravel from Salmon Creek Tuesday after waiting three years for state and federal permits to be granted. The project will help alleviate ice dams that build up near a railroad trestle between Cayuga Lake and Myers Road, and threatens nearby homes with flooding.
Dirt and gravel removed from the creek is being taken to a nearby location on Salt Point. This pile had already accumulated after only a few hours on the first day of removing the material from the creek.v9i9
