题名: Mississippi River Locks 27 Main Chamber Reopens Key Developments
正文语种: eng

摘要: The main chamber at Mississippi River Chain of Rocks Locks (Locks 27, near Granite City, Ill.) reopened Friday, February 19, after closing down February 1 for maintenance and repairs. According to Lockmaster Jeremy Garzia, Corps crews of between five and 10 people at a time replaced the chains on the lift gate, working despite bitter cold and icy conditions. During this time, the auxiliary lock remained open for traffic. Despite the conditions, said Garzia, there were usually three or four tows waiting in either direction at any one time to transit through the 600-foot auxiliary lock, which takes about twice as long as through the 1,200-foot main chamber.
