Description:
A Canal Authority scow crew removes trees and other debris from the Erie Canal, New York State. Sections of the canal from Lock 9 to 15 were affected by heavy flooding. Erosion, as well as structural damage and significant debris trapped in canal gates and lock mechanisms, was to blame for many of the problems. From left, Civil Service Empoyees Association (CSEA) Canal Authority Local members Louis King, Captain Bruce Pavlus, Machinist Bob Lisco, and Crane Operator Ron Klump haul a tree from the Lock 13 gates.
