John, when does William Larned uncover the aquifer with his excavations in Rotterdam near Campbell road? The nearby Dickershaid pit did this about 45 years ago.
The locks don't change the volume of water in the river only the speed which it passes through. Isn't the only way to truly measure the effect of locks up would be to compare the aquifer level from a similar dry spring and early summer with the gates down and see if there is a significant difference?

The City tapped into the aquifer about 100 yr ago. See this post: https://mohawk.substack.com/p/early-drinking-water-in-schenectady
