"One accident of this nature is too many, and the prevalence in Pennsylvania of fatalities and water rescues associated with low-head dams needs to be addressed. While some of these accidents are the result of risk-taking and lack of good judgment, we can and should do more to make anyone near these dams better aware of the potential dangers and further penalize entities that are responsible for these structures but choose to act irresponsibly."
