Lake Williams Dam Project

Long Term Project

York Water is in the midst of a three-phase dam improvement project that will span over several construction seasons. Phase 1 work has been completed and Lake Williams’ gates are now up, and the lake is at full capacity. We are awaiting DEP approval for Phase 2 work to reconstruct the dam’s spillway to current design standards. Once approval is granted, we will need to lower the water level 20 feet to complete the spillway construction work.
