(Beaver County, PA) The largest part of the barge that broke free from a construction site on the Beaver River is still stuck on the dam near the Eastvale Bridge in Beaver Falls. A smaller piece broke free yesterday morning and is now stuck on top of the dam near the Beaver Falls – New Brighton Bridge, on the New Brighton side of the river. The barge initially got stuck on Thursday and according to the PA Turnpike, one of its contractors, Fay S&B, has been developing a plan for how to remove the barges from the river.  The Turnpike noted that the Beaver Falls Municipal Authority is in charge of the dam structure and will assess any potential damage after the barges are removed.
