<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/19620/20120405/croghan-dam-reclassified-as-quot-low-risk-quot</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Apr 5, 2012) People working to save the small, historic dam in Croghan from demolition recently got something of a reprieve.  The state Department of Environmental Conservation has reclassified the old concrete dam. The two-part structure on the Beaver River was previously listed as &quot;high risk&quot;, that could cause death and serious damage if it breached. After the assessment, however, the dam is now considered a low risk structure.

<description><![CDATA[ (Mar 13, 2007) Federal officials have removed a big stumbling block for the paper mill in Newton Falls, in southern St. Lawrence County.
