摘要：	Marine casualty investigators from the Coast Guard and National Transportation Safety Board are investigating a barge allision with the Bayou Ramos Bridge that happened December 23, 2021, at Amelia, La., near Morgan City, on Highway 182. At approximately 3:26 a.m., the towing vessel Miss Mollye D, pushing six empty hopper barges, was traveling southeast along the Avoca Island Cutoff waterway when one of the lead barges in the tow struck the Bayou Ramos Bridge. Coast Guard personnel at Marine Safety Unit Morgan City received notification about damage to the bridge several hours later and identified the responsible party. The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development closed the bridge later that day due to significant damage and safety concerns. The barge that allided with the bridge was also damaged. There were no reports of injuries, and the incident has been declared a major marine casualty due to property damage initially estimated at $500,000 or more. Once the investigation is complete, both agencies will issue independent reports detailing their findings.
