 Heavy rains and rising waters on the tidal Potomac and Occoquan rivers caused massive damage to area marinas this weekend. High water, strong currents and flood like conditions caused docks to give way, pylons to break free and caused docks to float down river only to collide with boats and other piers along the river.
Mid afternoon, Cliff Small a local Occoquan resident and boater; dialed 911 to inform the Coast Guard and local authorities that the pier from the new Gas Light Landing town home community on the Occoquan River had broke free and was floating down river towards Prince William Marina and several other marinas. During this time, local marinas were notified and local fire and rescue boats were dispatched to help fend off floating debris. |
