	Glacial geology of the Genesee River - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Genesee River flows northward from its source in northern Pennsylvania to enter Lake Ontario north of Rochester, New York.
		A lake was formed with varve clay sediments visible along the valley sides in many spots, but the lake drained as the river found a way to cut a new valley northeastward from Portageville a little west of the original valley, then drop back into the old valley at Mount Morris.
		In the lower part of the river, before entering Lake Ontario, the river appears to have been diverted once again from its ancient valley by the glacier.

		As early as 1823 a petition from citizens of the counties of Monroe, Livingston, Genesee, Allegany and Cattaraugus was presented to the State Legislature praying for an appropriation of $10,000 from the State treasury for the purpose of improving the navigation of the Genesee river.
		That portion of the Genesee Valley canal between its intersection with the Erie canal at Rochester and the Genesee river dam near Mount Morris, a distance of thirty-six miles, was so far completed that water was admitted in the latter part of August and navigation was opened on the first day of September, 1840.
		In 1854 (chapter 331), in response to petitions for a navigable feeder for the Genesee Valley canal from the Genesee river at Wellsville to intersect the canal at or near Belfast, the Legislature instructed the canal board to prepare maps, plans and estimates for this feeder.

		Genesee River could not be used for navigation while the Spirit of Ontario 1 was in port.
		The Genesee River speed limit is 6 miles per hour, so you can see there can be some problems if you are in the river with the Spirit of Ontario 1 (and no, going faster is NOT an option).
		The Genesee River WILL BE CLOSED from the railroad swing bridge to the end of the jetties until the Spirit of Ontario 1 is docked.

	Mussetter Engineering, Inc - Genesee River Stability Analysis/ Beards Creek Erosion Control Plan, New York
		Mussetter Engineering, Inc. (MEI) performed a geomorphic, hydraulic and sediment transport study of an approximately 20-mile long reach of the Genesee River, and two major tributaries (Beards Creek and Canaseraga Creek) to evaluate the effects of subsidence caused by the collapse of an underground salt mine on the stability and flood-carrying capacity of the streams.
		Between the initial collapse and late November 1995, significant subsidence occurred in an approximately 4.5 mi2 area of the Genesee River valley due to dissolution of the mine pillars.
		The study results indicated that the subsidence was unlikely to have a significant impact on the vertical stability of the river up- or downstream from the subsidence-affected area, because of the coarse-grained nature of the bed material and the presence of bedrock outcrop in the river.
