Construction worker injured at Gilboa Dam

CBS Channel 6 reports that a construction rig tipped over at the Gilboa Dam this morning, injuring a worker.

A statement via email from Michael Saucier, spokesman for the New York City Department of Environmental Protection, which owns and operates the dam:

There was a minor incident of equipment tipping over; no one was seriously  injured and that this will not likely impact the timeline of the project.  The operator of the rig was walking around after the incident but is going to hospital for evaluation. There is no damage to the dam itself.
