County executives, town supervisors and elected officials from several Lake Ontario shoreline counties are meeting in Washington with their members of Congress today for an update on the Lake Ontario flooding situation.
Members of Congress including Chris Collins and John Katko are condemning the controversial International Joint Commission Plan 2014. Like the shoreline local officials, they’re going into this meeting blaming it for the record-high spring water levels.
The IJC maintains it made only a fraction of an inch difference in a year of record-high spring rains.
