Mississippi River At Alton, Illinois Crews Work To Stabilize Riverview Drive Bluff........
Workers with GeoStabalization International have been making progress making repairs to the bluff and dirt under part of Riverview Drive in Alton, Illinois. On Wednesday, workers were visible along the steepest part of the bluff installing steel rods deep into the hillside.
Back in 2019, a mud slide occurred which led to the erosion of the bluff and the later collapse of the old retaining wall and a portion of Riverview Drive. The area had been closed to traffic after cracks were discovered in May 2019.
GeoStabalization International specializes in emergency landslide repairs, rock fall mitigation and grouting procedures. The company is being paid nearly $3.5 million to construct a new Riverview Drive retaining wall. The project will be warrantied for five years........

Mississippi River At Alton, Illinois River Traffic Backed Up Due To Repair Work........
At the Melvin Price Locks and Dam at Alton, Illinois, there is an approximately 36 hour wait to lock through, as repair work is being carried out in the main 1,200 foot lock chamber.
With the 1,200 foot long lock being shut down, tows are having to use the smaller 600 foot auxiliary lock chamber.
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Operations Manager Andy Schimpf says that main lock chamber will likely be out of service until April 1. He adds that there is a Phase 2 planned for next year involving the replacement of the gate with some of the modifications currently being made........

Mississippi River At St. Louis, Missouri A Look Back At The "Municipal Bridge"........
Over a century ago, a group of railroad barons known as the Terminal Rail Road Association, owned both bridges spanning the Mississippi River at St. Louis, Missouri, and charged high tolls, known as the bridge arbitrary", for anything that crossed by wagon or train. This raised the costs of food, merchandise and coal.
Ordinary citizens resented the tolls and eventually, a call for a "free bridge" to be built to get around the monopoly that owned the Merchants and Eads Bridges. In 1906, a #3.5 million bond issue was passed for the construction of the Municipal Bridge, which would eventually be renamed the MacArthur Bridge.
After overcoming many hurdles, the span was completed, and it carried vehicular and rail traffic over the Mississippi River. In 1932, officials ended up charging tolls to raise funds for unemployment relief. The toll was dropped in 1973, as it did not cover the costs of the toll gate workers. In 1981, the span was closed to vehicular traffic.
Ironically, in 1989, the TRRA and the City of St. Louis swapped ownership of the Eads and MacArthur Bridges so that the MetroLink could use the Eads Bridge. Now, the big railroads cross the MacArthur Bridge 24/7 and remains one of the busiest railroad bridges in the nation........

Mississippi River At Warsaw, Illinois A Warsaw Business Has Developed A Taste For Caviar........
Warsaw Caviar was formed by Joe Clarke and his friends - Doug Buelt, Brian Froman, Stu Froman and Lance LaBonte as a side project, which has blossomed into a booming business.
To date, Warsaw Caviar is sold in 39 states, mainly to gourmet food distributors, as well as online sales of one-, two-, four-, eight- and sixteen-ounce tins of roe or eggs of Mississippi River sturgeon.
Clarke says that they could sell 10 times as much caviar as they currently do, however, there is only so much they can sell. He adds that there are not that many fishermen and the Illinois Department of Natural Resources keeps close tabs on the surgeon catch........

Mississippi River Management Dredging Keeps Traffic Flowing Amid Continued Drought........
The U.S. economy has been taking a beating from the historically low Mississippi River levels affecting the supply chains and dredges have been working 24/7 in an effort to maintain the river levels for supply transportation.
Shipping along the Mississippi River accounts for the majority of the nation's agriculture and grain exports, but thanks to the recent lack of rainfall, the river levels are being compared to one of the worst droughts in 2012.
According to Lou Dell'Orco, the St. Louis District Army Corps of Engineers Chief of Operations, river levels are about 5 feet lower than normal in the St. Louis region, so since July, they have been conducting continuous dredging operations to maintain the channel........

On Monday, a dredging vessel capsized along the Lower Mississippi River near Meraux, Louisiana. There was some oil spilled in the incident and the two people aboard were reported to be safe.
At 12:50 am Monday morning, the U.S. Coast Guard Sector New Orleans Watchstanders received a report that the dredging vessel W.B. Wood capsized near Mile Marker 85 and that the two crew aboard had been rescued by the crew of the tow vessel Omaha.

Missouri River Level Outlook Corps Forecasting Continued Drought For The Missouri River Basin........
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is forecasting that there will be no relief from dry conditions within the Missouri RIver Basin this year, in what is forecasted to be the fourth straight year of drought conditions.
2022 marked the 30th lowest annual runoff for the Missouri RIver Basin in 125 years of record keeping. According to National Weather Service hydrologist Kevin Lowe, this is the result of 63 percent of the basin being in drought.
Lowe says that we did not make up a lot in moisture last year and as a result of the dry conditions, there has been limited flooding within the Missouri River Basin this fall and early winter........

Water Safety Winter Temperatures Affect Water Temperatures........
The recent weather has ranged from mild to snow and ice and even though the cold air has not been as consistent as in previous years, the water temperature of Missouri's lakes and rivers is colder in the winter months.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol is reminding the public that if you are close to or on one of the state's waterways or lakes to take care and remain alert, as the body loses heat 25 times faster in water than in the air.
The use of life jackets becomes even more important in the cold water because hypothermia can quickly strip the body of the ability to perform even the most basic of tasks........

River Shipping Check Out The Special Vessel Used To Ship Rockets........
RiverWorks Discovery recently posted an interesting article on the R/S Rocketship, which is a unique ship used to transport NASA rocket components from ULA's production facility in Decatur, Alabama along the Tennessee River to Cape Canaveral, Florida.
The R/S Rocketship has been in use for close to two decades and carried Delta IV rocket stages to Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida and Vandenberg Space Force Base, California. In 2011, the vessel began transporting Atlas V stages and now also transports Vulcan Centaur stages.
R/S/ Rocketship is very maneuverable and is the only U.S. flagged ship able to navigate both rivers and the open ocean. The roll-on, roll-off cargo vessel is 312 feet long and weighs in at almost 19 tons. It boasts living quarters and a dining area for it's crew of 16, a below-decks machine shop, a helipad and sophisticated computers and navigational aids on the bridge........

Lake Of The Ozarks Are There Still Graves Beneath The Lake Of The Ozarks?
Is it possible that there may be burial sites under the Lake of the Ozarks? There is a reasonable chance that there are long-forgotten cemetery sites under the Lake bottom, within site of your home or favorite watering hole, and that cemetery could be still occupied.
The section of the Osage River than became the Lake of the Ozarks had been settled by pioneers about a century before the Lake existed and they buried their dead in scores of cemetery plots, typically on their farms. Those farms were typically in the valleys where the land was more fertile, and that land would end up being covered by the Lake in 1931.
While the Bagnell Dam was under construction between 1929 and 1931,the developer of the Lake, Union Electric, did what they could to remove human remains if a known cemetery was below the projected shoreline of the Lake. The official count listed 60 cemeteries with about 2,800 gravesites. Missouri State Archives records indicate that only 1,121 burial sites were clearly marked with tombstones........

Towboat News Deckhand Awarded $3.3 Million Settlement.......
On January 13th, a Madison County jury awarded a $3.3 million settlement to a towboat deckhand. The jury deliberated for two hours and 15 minutes prior to declining SCF Lewis and Clark LLC's request to award deckhand Kevin Mogensen nothing and instead returned a verdict of $3,310,000.
Mogensen's lawsuit was brought under the federal Jones Act that covers seamen, alleging that the company negligently ordered Mogensen to be aboard a barge while terminal and dock crews were cleaning off excess bright yellow corn gluten fertilizer off of it.
Reportedly, 20 hours after the exposure, Mogensen was rushed to Alton Memorial Hospital where he was diagnosed with acute hypoxic respiratory failure. He was intubated and placed on a ventilator.
Mogensen's lawyers claim that he had suffered an acute aggravation of his pre-existing asthma and that his condition is now permanent.
SCF Lewis and Clark's lawyers claim that Mogensen's asthma was present since childhood and any issues experienced in the alleged workplace incident was due to exposure to the corn gluten fertilizer six weeks prior when he was working for a different employer........

A new way to visually identify the location of the Mississippi River is now able to be seen in downtown Cape Girardeau, as the Mississippi River Memorial has been installed at the corner of Main and Broadway Streets.
The ides for the monument was proposed by Old Town Cape as well as downtown merchants back in April 2022. They also secured the funding to have the monument built and installed, which was budgeted at $75,000.

Mississippi River At Baton Rouge, Louisiana River Covered Shipwreck Once Again, Researchers Preserved It Via 3D........
When the Mississippi River was at record low levels back in October, a passerby spotted the remains of a 19th Century shipwreck along the river bank at Baton Rouge. Now that the water levels have returned to normal, it has slipped beneath the surface once again.
Now, thanks to an engineering company in Baton Rouge, there is a digital model which will allow researchers the ability to study the Brookhill, which sank more than 100 years ago, at any time.
Forte and Tablada recorded high resolution images of the vessel which helped in the creation of a 3D laser scan that was used to create a unique visual experience that allows viewers to explore nearly every inch of the Brookhill........

Mississippi River Health Decades Of Road Salt Is Harming The Mississippi River........
Typically, when there is snow falling, municipalities across the nation turn to road salt as an effective means of keeping streets clean and passable. However, the use of road salt can also affect the environment as it washes into streams and rivers.
Data from a new study indicates that the levels of chloride, one of the elements that make up salt, has increased by more than a third since the late 1980s across the entire Upper Mississippi River Basin.
Chloride does not break down in water over time, so the increase is not from a recent overuse of road salt, but rather an accumulation built up over time. Since it doesn't break down over time, it heads downriver to the Gulf of Mexico........

Mississippi River At Alton, Illinois Traffic Backing Up At The Melvin Price Locks & Dam........
Currently, there is a wait of approximately 36 hours for barges to lock through the Melvin Price Locks and Dam in Alton, as repair work is being done to the larger of the two lock chambers.
The 1,200 foo lock chamber sustained damage that needed to be repaired, which leaves only the 600 foot long lock chamber to handle river traffic.
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Operations Manager Andy Schimpf says that the chamber is expected to be out of service until about April 1. He adds that there is a second phase planned for next year that will include the installation of the new gate with some of the modifications that are now being made........

Missouri River Management Missouri River Seeing Extreme Conditions More Often.......
Last month, the Missouri River fell to a record low level at Jefferson City, Missouri, dropping to -2.8 feet on the U.S. Geological Survey's Missouri River gauge on December 29th. Then, a cold snap froze the already low water, creating an ice jam near Booneville, which pushed river levels lower downstream.
A lack of rain and snowfall throughout the middle of the nation, combined with the complicated structures and competing state interests controlling the river has resulted in declining river flows over the past several years.
The Missouri River Basin has seen extreme weather conditions for longer, however, as cycles of severe flooding and drought plague the lands it winds through. As a result, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the states within the Lower Missouri River Basin, Missouri, Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska, are looking for solutions........

Mississippi River At Rock Island, Illinois Researchers Take Soil Samples To Study Mississippi River's Past........
On Thursday, January 12th, a pair of researchers visited Watch Tower Plaza in Rock Island, Illinois as part of a study to determine how the Mississippi River's flow has changed over time.
Eric Barefoot, a geologist with the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities and master's student Jimmy Wood were in Rock Island to take soil samples from Watch Tower Plaza. Barefoot says that the land Watch Tower Plaza was built upon was under the Mississippi River around the time of the last ice age.
Barefoot says that Watch Tower Plaza is a terrace above the current level of the Mississippi River. He adds that he and Wood are looking to determine when the Mississippi River level began to fall from the terrace to it's current level........

With the discovery of a Jeep in the Mississippi River, the Davenport Police Department has a mystery on their hands, namely, how did the Jeep get there and where is the driver?
Reportedly, the Jeep crashed through the railings at the end of Marquette Street into the Mississippi River in the early hours of Sunday morning. The SUV dropped over 10 feet into the river.
According to the Davenport Police Department, the SUV was not reported stolen and was unoccupied when they arrived on scene. The Police did recover a purse from the scene and observed footprints heading away from the crash site........

Mississippi River Dredging Corps Commander Visited Dredges.......
Lieutenant General Scott Spellmon, commanding general of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, recently visited two of the Corps' largest dredges working within a few miles of each other along the Middle Mississippi River.
The Dredge Jadwin out of the Vicksburg District was operating at Mile Marker 42 near Thebes, Illinois and the Dredge Potter of the St. Louis District was working at Mile Marker 47 near the Southeast Missouri Port.
After visiting with the dredge crews, Spellmon spoke with reporters and met with port and industry officials at the port's headquarters. He says that this is the third time in the past few months that the Jadwin has been working in the Middle Mississippi River Valley........

Mississippi River Steamboats What Was The Largest Steamboat Along The Mississippi River?
The Mississippi River flows through a large portion of middle America and it's size allows it to accommodate large vessels.
Throughout history, travelers have cruised the river on a variety of vessels, but the steamboat revolutionized river travel and is now an icon of river travel.
Some of the steamboats that cruised the Mississippi River were quite large which begs the question, what was the largest steamboat in Mississippi River history?
The largest steamboat to cruise the Mississippi River is the American Queen. She was built in 1995 and christened with a bottle of Tabasco. The vessel features six decks and 222 staterooms and is 89 feet wide and 418 feet long........

Mississippi River At Dubuque, Iowa National Mississippi River Museum Hosts Annual Ice Festival........
The National Mississippi River Museum and Aquarium has kicked off their annual Ice Festival, allowing attendees the ability to enjoy a wide variety of activities such as ice fishing and snow sculptures. Kids could try cross country skiing and sledding.
Ice Festival organizers say that the event helps draw people to the museum and allows them to learn more about the Mississippi River and it's wildlife.
Antonio Pirillo, the museum's Events and Banquets Specialist says that the Ice Festival activities may not be much help to conservation efforts, but it does bring people to the museum where educators show off live animals and allow the public to check the place out.
The festival continues Sunday, from 10 am to 4 pm........

Missouri River Near Omaha, Nebraska Nearly 20 Mile Long Ice Jam Poses Low Water Threats Downstream........
A 20 mile long ice jam along the Missouri River near Omaha, Nebraska is posing low water threats to downstream communities as it can cause sharply lower river levels, jeopardizing access to water. If it breaks up quickly, downstream infrastructure could be damaged by the surge of ice.

The near-term forecast is calling for ideal melting conditions, but there is colder weather forecasted for later this month.

Mississippi River At St. Louis, Missouri Around 5,000 Settle Along The Mississippi During The Great Depression.......
During The Great Depression, some 5,000 people settled in at the Midwest's version of a Hoovervillle located along the flood-prone land lining the Mississippi River.
The majority of the dispossessed settled on a stretch of land from the Municipal (now MacArthur) Bridge south for more than a mile.
The shacks were constructed from crate wood, scraps of sheet metal and scraps of canvas........

U.S. Army Corps Of Engineers Corps Preparing For 120 Day Illinois Waterway Closure........
The scheduled 120 day closure of the Illinois River is set to begin a month earlier than a similar closure in 2020. The work will be less extensive, however, it is still crucial for maintaining the reliability of the lock and dam system.
According to Tom Heinold, chief of operations for the Rock Island Engineers District, the Brandon Road and Dresden Island locks and dams will be getting the most work done.
Both are scheduled to receive new miter gates, anchorages and machinery. The Marseilles Lock will be dewatered to allow crews to install conduits below the lock chamber, which will allow electrical equipment to be relocated........

Mississippi River At Alton, Illinois Repair Work On Riverview Drive Continues.......
Repair work on the retaining wall and the adjacent compromised section of Riverview Drive in Alton is continuing. Back in January 2020, a section of the wall gave way after heavy storms caused a mudslide.
The project involves the stabilization of the slope by drilling in "nails" to secure the bluff prior to installing a permanent solution. The estimated cost of the repair work is just under $3.5 million, which is primarily paid for with ARPA funding.
Alton Public Works Director Mike Parsons says that the repair work is being performed by GeoStabilization International and comes with a five year warranty. He adds that he expects the project will be completed by the fall at the latest.........

Mississippi River Shipping As River Conditions Continue, Barge Rates Continue To Fall........
The U.S. Department of Agriculture reported that for the week of January 10, 2023, the barge rate near St. Louis was 541% above tariff ($21.59/ton), which is down 25% from last week and down $20 % from the same time last year.
This marks the first time since September 9, 2022 that the barge rate was below the same time period last year. The USDA reports that the current barge rate is 80% lower than the all-time peak of 2,653% above tariff ($105.85/ton) set during the week of October 11, 2022.
The decreasing barge rates reflect improved navigation conditions along the Mississippi River System. Increased precipitation along portions of the river, the completion of the harvest and the increase in draft sizes in the majority of places have contributed to normalizing the system........

On Thursday, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers held their first briefing on runoff into the Missouri River for 2023. According to Kevin Lowe with the Missouri Basin River Forecast Center, the plains snowpack is better than previous years.
Ryan Larsen with the Corps of Engineers says that even though the runoff remains below normal, it will be higher than last year. Mike Swenson with the Corps says that the big three Missouri RIver reservoirs have plenty of storage space available for this year's runoff season.
It is estimated that some fifty three percent of the Missouri River Basin is classified as being in drought conditions........

Mississippi River At Alton, Illinois Alton Riverfront May Create Considerable Economic Growth.......
During a recent What's Up Downtown meeting, two members of the AltonWorks team discussed plans for Alton's riverfront to establish a community conversation about creating a riverfront paradise that would attract residents and visitors alike, providing economic stability for the region.
Alton's riverfront is a rare natural asset that is at the core of the community. Over the next several years, Alton and it's residents will need to decide the best long-term plans for the riverfront and how that fits with the future of downtown Alton.
The AltonWorks members believe that the riverfront could create considerable economic growth if utilized as a natural outdoors attraction, as opposed to businesses in large buildings that obscure the view of the natural beauty........

Boat Sales NMMA: Recreational Boating Maintaining Momentum.......
The National Marine Manufacturers Association and the recreational boating industry are anticipating around 2 million attendees at boat shows across the nation between January and March. Typically, between 30 and 50 percent of annual boat sales are generated at boat shows.
NMMA President Frank Hugelmeyer says that 2022 was a healthy year for recreational boating, maintaining momentum from the record-setting sales during 2021 due to continued demand and supply chain shortages that prevented overproduction.
Hugelmeyer adds that with the return of boat shows following 2 years of events limited by COVID, the recreational boating industry is seeing encouraging sales reports within certain categories combined with consumers continuing to invest in the unique experience of being on the water........

Mississippi River At Alton, Illinois Riverview Drive Project Making Progress........
Alton officials are pleased with the progress being made on the Riverview Drive Soil Stabilization Project during the winter months. Mike Parsons, Alton's Public Works Director says that the winter weather has been mild, allowing for continuous work.
Parsons says that the work is continuing on the Riverview Soil Stabilization Project. He adds that GSI of Denver, Colorado was awarded the contract for the project by FEMA. To date, considerable progress is being made overall.
Parsons stated that there are two phases for the project, with phase one involving stabilization of the bluffs in the Riverview area. Once stabilized, phase two can commence, which will involve reconstructing Riverview Drive to address irrigation concerns........

Mississippi River Near Luling, Louisiana Existing River Diversion May Offer Lessons Applicable To Upcoming Project.......
Researchers are looking to the Davis Pond Freshwater Diversion project in search of lessons it may contain relating to the upcoming Mid-Barataria Sediment Diversion project.
The Davis Pond Freshwater Diversion has been open for a few decades and demonstrates the Mississippi River's land building capabilities, as well as the ability to slow erosion.
The Mid-Barataria Sediment Diversion will certainly dwarf the Davis Pond project. It is expected to build around 21 square miles of land by 2070........
