Tour of the Charleroi Lock and Dam

Pittsburgh, PA

Following years of persistent work in Congress to secure over $233 million for Western Pennsylvania’s Locks and Dams, U.S. Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) visited the Charleroi Lock and Dam, detailing the new improvements.  Casey, joined by waterways industry leaders, highlighted the vital role locks and dams plays in creating and sustaining jobs and supporting economic growth throughout not only Western Pennsylvania, but the entire country. 

In Pittsburgh today visiting Western PA's locks and dams. The ability of this region and the businesspeople here to harness our waterways into an economic engine over many years is emblematic of something I’ve known about Western Pennsylvania for a long time- that here you invent the future.
