OSWEGO, NY – Mark Luciano, stakeholder relations manager for Brookfield Renewable US, (center holding check), presents a check for $10,000 at Oswego’s Veterans Memorial Park to the City of Oswego and Oswego County Emergency Management in support of their drone programs. Each will receive $5,000 in support for their program.

Brookfield’s support is in response to some incidents of disruptive behavior that have occurred along the riverside in the past. Monitoring by drones is a deterrent to that behavior and will make a safer waterfront for all fishermen and citizens. In addition, drones can carry and drop a flotation vest to a person in the water to assist first responders.

Brookfield operates hydroelectric generation facilities along the Oswego River in Oswego and Fulton and has a total of 74 hydroelectric facilities in NY State. https://brookfieldrenewableus.com
