TEN YEARS AGO, Waterways Council Inc., The American Waterways Operators and the National Waterways Conference were working with the Corps of Engineers to improve efficiencies in lock operations and maintenance; and AEP River Operations christened the refurbished, 11,100 hp. mv. Robert L. Posey. TWENTY YEARS AGO, the ARTCO towboat Starfire aided lock workers at Upper Mississippi River Lock and Dam 14 in rescuing two teens who fell from a boat and were almost sucked into the dam's rollers; the mv. Erin Elizabeth sank in Luke Pontchar-train; and the Corps of Engineers said it could not meet navigation flow targets for the drought-stricken Missouri River. |
