| 摘要： | The dramatic low water on the Mississippi River got extensive coverage nationally and internationally. Barge loads were lightened, tow sizes were shrunk, queues formed as dredges dredged hot spots. Hundreds of people kept in constant touch to monitor river conditions and exchange information. Some cargoes were kept moving, even if others had to be diverted to more expensive modes.The heroic and mostly behind-the-scenes efforts of the Corps of Engineers dredges and those of its contractors, not to mention the coordinated efforts of the Coast Guard and towing industry personnel serving on various local action committees, got less attention than the dramatic images of exposed wrecks and hikers trekking to Grand Tower. |
