Fair Haven state boat ramp

Just wondering what is the status of the ramp with current water levels. Is there a way to find out if the state might be closing the ramp.

Late week the floating dock was put out. The out docks are closed.

On Saturday afternoon, a park manager was at the launch and asked a few people what could be done to make things easier for when the water level comes up another 11 inches. We told her that they'll need a some kind of ramp to step from the launch ramp onto the floating dock. The whole conversation gave me the impression that they're planning on keeping the launch open and want to be ready for it.

So any size boat can still launch at the ramp? Does anyone have a picture of the ramp and what it looks like

Is the water level predicted to go up another 11 inches? If so where is that info? Hope to get my dock in this weekend.

I'm just going by what she said, not something that I know for fact. But it definitely didn't seem like a number that she was just guessing at.

 

I believe they do it to control the flow of the river for the hydroelectric dams and/or for the shipping lanes.
