The water at the Eccolands launch on the Rideau river was down 5' yesterday, and there was a big pile of rocks at the launch opening. Does anyone know if the launch at Rideau Locks 14-16 near Manotick, or the Jock River Landing are open?

Water levels are low along the Rideau River for now , until the flooding warning is over. Then they will open the dams/locks to raise to regular levels .

Boat launch in Manotik is open, the dock beside it in place. I used it couple days ago.
Just be aware that Rideau River is very shallow in this area, just follow the navigation signs.

I don't think any are closed. Nice to see the muni's have a brain in their head functioning this time around.
