MILE
63.2 - MILE 63.1 - DREDGE OPERATION
Continuing until further notice, the M/V LaSALLE is
conducting dredging/strike removal operations between
approximate Miles 63.2 and 63.1, Valley City. Work will be
conducted from 6:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m., 7-days a week. The
M/V LaSALLE will monitor VHF-FM Channel 14 or 82 and
requests 30-minutes advance notice of passage. Mariners are
urged to transit the area at their slowest safe speed and
proceed with caution after passing arrangements have been
made
MISSOURI RIVER
CHANNEL CONDITION/COTP ADVISORY
The following reaches are in the low water watch phase
in accordance with the Western Rivers WAP Annex:
Jefferson (Mile 200.0 – Mile 100.0) and
Washington (Mile 100.0 – Mile 0.0).
Deep draft tows are advised to depart the area. Due to
narrow channel width and to minimize damage, vessels shall
transit these reaches at their slowest safe speed. Tow
operators are advised to place their heaviest barges in the
middle of the tow and identify fleeting areas in the event
of a river closure.

River History....
December 7, 1982 in River History
In Missouri communities just southwest of St. Louis, more than
18,000 people fled their homes as the Meramec and Mississippi
Rivers began rising over the weekend. Rescuers in boats and
helicopters plucked thousands of people from Fenton, Valley
Park, Arnold and Times Beach to Red Cross shelters in
neighboring communities

Mississippi River Near Lansing, Iowa
Researchers Assess Soil Conditions On
Man-Made Islands........
As one of the ongoing restoration projects
along the Upper Mississippi River, the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers has been working on building islands in the same
manner they are naturally, with a sand base topped with
fine-grained sediment soil.
The restoration sites are successfully
planted with native grass species, many of the sites have
exhibited slow growth, low survivability and at times, severe
tree mortality.
Researchers are working to find solutions to
the vegetation issues by analyzing the baseline soil
characteristics. There are three different testing areas which
feature different depths of fine silt material placed over the
sand base to better understand the science of soil conditions
and how that relates to vegetative response........

Upper Mississippi River Valley
The Upper Mississippi River Restoration
Program Celebrating 35 Years........
The UMRR, or the Upper Mississippi River
Restoration program is celebrating 35 years since it was first
authorized by the Water Resources Development Act of 1986.
Originally called the Environmental Program,
the UMRR was the first environmental restoration and monitoring
program undertaken on a large river system in the United States.
The UMRR program includes habitat restoration
projects, monitoring and research, and is authorized under the
Continuing Authorities Program. Program Manager, Tom Novak says
that they are required to submit to Congress a report every six
years regarding what has been learned, and how the program can
be improved........

MRAA Introduces Certified Pre-Owned
Program........
The Marine Retailers Association of the
Americas recently announced that they have partnered with Boat
History Report and Titan Certified to introduce a Certified
Pre-Owned Boat Program.
The MRAA has worked with manufacturers,
industry leaders and suppliers in the United States and Canada
to create this program, which they hope will help dealers better
capitalize in the North American $10 billion Pre-owned boat
market.
MRAA president Matt Gruhn says that the
program helps dealerships bolster a much-needed profit center
within their business, establish increased levels of trust with
current and new customers and enjoy peace of mind along the
way........

Boat Propulsion Manufacturer
Cox Marine Developing Diesel-Hydrogen
Fueled Outboard.........
Cox Marine has partnered with SHAPE UK, an
association interested in developing the United Kingdom's first
zero emissions maritime hub by working with the University of
Brighton to convert one of Cox Marine's CXO300 diesel outboard
engines to operate as a dual-fuel hydrogen engine.
According to James Eatwell, Head of Research
and Development for Cox Powertrain and SHAPE Project Lead,
hydrogen represents a very promising option for reducing marine
CO2 emissions.
The SHAPE project intends to assess the
viability of hydrogen infrastructure via the installation and
testing of a modular hydrogen electrolyser and demonstrate the
case for using hydrogen via the dual-fuel Cox outboard........

Hi Bill!
We have the foundation built!!! Unfortunately, since lumber
prices are so high right now we are putting a hold on the
build. Hoping all of this ends soon so we can get back to
it.

Foundation work started
"The plan is to keep it in the same location, maybe a little
closer to the river and up about 7 ft higher. The building
will be just a little smaller with a bigger deck."
