正文语种：	eng
摘要：	The St. Paul Engineer District and the city of Wabasha, Minn., are set to sign a historic river sand management document July 24 during a brief ceremony in Wabasha. The ceremony is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. at the National Eagle Center Amphitheater, 50 Pembroke Ave. S. Col. Eric Swenson, St. Paul District commander, and Wabasha Mayor Em- ily Durand will sign a memorandum of agreement that allows the city to manage the Corps of Engineers' dredged river sand within the Mississippi River Lower Pool 4 area. With the pact, known as a Water Resources Development Act Section 217 agreement, the Corps will be able to pay the city a tipping fee to help manage river sand removed from the navigational channel during Corps dredging operations. The Corps removes nearly 250,000 cubic yards of sand from this area every year, or roughly 25 percent of the district's annual dredging requirements.
