题名: High Water Affects Lock, Ferry Operations On Ohio River
正文语种: eng
作者: SHELLEY BYRNE
摘要: Torrential rains in the Ohio Valley and surrounding area led to changes in lock and ferry operations last week. The Markland Locks and Dam in Louisville temporarily ceased locking due to high water March 3. The Louisville Engineer District suspended the lock's operations after close coordination with the U.S. Coast Guard and industry partners. The Corps expected the lockage suspension to last 24-48 hours until conditions improved. High water caused conditions to deteriorate, causing substantial outdraft and drift buildup on the upper end of the lock chamber, according to a news release from the Corps of Engineers. "Once the river crests, and drift on the upper end is cleared from the approach, locking may resume," the Corps said. Vessels in the area should contact the Markland Locks and Dam to get into the queue to transit the lock when conditions improve.
