摘要：	Property owners along the Ohio River near Olmsted, Ill., and the Corps of Engineers both agree riverbank erosion is occurring, but they disagree as to its cause. Sandra Thornton, an Air Force veteran who has rallied her neighbors and begun a letter-writing campaign to the president, members of Congress and the media, among others, is adamant that the replacement of the former Locks and Dams 52 and 53 with the Olmsted Locks and Dam has sped up the erosion, along with the placement of four barge mooring cells and a relocated boat ramp moved due to the dam's construction. She also believes the propulsion of passing barges has had an effect. Col. Eric Crispino, commander of the Louisville Engineer District, and his team say high water in 2018 and 2019 is the cause and that it was coincidental to the dam's opening, which took place September 6, 2018, according to a Corps of Engineers fact sheet on the dam.
