Swimming can safely resume at Croton Point Park Beach and Philipse Manor Beach Club, and boaters can return to recreational activities in the Hudson River. The Westchester County Department of Health has lifted its Hudson River advisory.

The advisory was initially put in place during sewer main repairs on a force main in Ossining, which were completed Friday evening. It was lifted today to allow ample tidal movement to adequately dilute the partially treated sewage that had been released into the river.
