The Pictures of the Day..... sent to us by Capt'n Mike Costello
Bill,
Today, September 19th, is "Talk Like A Pirate Day". As you can see, we commemorated the national holiday a bit early. These photos are from Quinn Dalton, our newest pirate to guard the Mississippi. He did a fine job, as no adversaries got through and our Harbor remained safe to fight another day.

Mississippi River At St. Louis, Missouri Merchants Bridge Officially Reopened........
This past Thursday, the 133 year old Merchants Bridge celebrated it's official grand reopening after the completion of a $222 million project to replace the railroad bridge linking downtown St. Louis with Illinois.
The Merchants Bridge dates back to the 1890s and serves six Class 1 railroads as well as Amtrak. The span has been at the top of the region's infrastructure priority list since 2016.
The grand reopening of the Merchants Bridge was the culmination of close to a decade of planning and advocacy in addition to four years of reconstruction to modernize and expand the span........

Missouri River Journeys Artist Paddles Missouri River, Finds Hope, Hospitality Along The Way........
Kansas City artist Steve Snell recently spent 88 days paddling the length of the Missouri River. Along the way, Snell documented his journey in a video series about art, adventure and life along the Missouri River told via painting and storytelling.
Snell became interested in the Missouri River after moving to the Kansas City region about a decade ago. Initially, he had been exploring the river locally on short and longer distance trips. He met a kayaker paddling to the Gulf of Mexico and was inspired to paddle the Missouri River.

According to a recent report made to the National Bigfoot Reporting Center, a Missouri angler was fishing along the Meramec River on July 5, 2022 near the Riverview Access boat ramp when he saw a large rock come from the tree line on the opposite bank and land in the river.
The angler said that he never saw whatever or whoever threw the boulder. He added that he thought that he might be able to see something move in the trees, but he didn't and decided that it would be a good idea to leave........

The Quincy Park District's board of commissioners heard a report from Commissioner Jeff VanCamp and board president John Frankenhoff following their meeting with a group of boaters representing several local groups including the Quincy Boat Club and the Quincy Yacht Club.
The meeting was held in an effort to determine what members of the boating community can do to help revitalize the Art Keller Marina. Over the past decade, the marina has seen a sharp decrease in slip rentals.
Frankenhoff says that the issue has been building for years as the amount of tax dollars being spent on the marina has been increasing. He adds that this year's budget calls for $23,000 to be transferred to the marina to balance it's budget........

Added Sunday Boat Propulsion Manufacturer Take A Look Into The Yamaha Propeller Foundry........
Back in July 2019, Yamaha broke ground on a $20 million, 55,000 square foot propeller foundry, which was built on 28 acres in Greenfield, Indiana. The Yamaha Precision Foundry was expected to increase output by 67 percent . The planning on the project began in 2016. It was completed in late 2020 and reached full capacity in 2021. Thanks to heavy automation, robotics and new processes, the facility cranks out around 100,000 propellers annually.
While the facility uses plenty of high-tech modern processes and equipment, the basic investment casting technique the company uses has been around for about 5,000 years. It was originally used to produce jewelry but has been refined over the years to manufacture surgical equipment, turbine blades and other precision items........

Upper Missouri River Basin Dry Conditions Return In August........
The earlier optimism about improving runoff within the Missouri River Basin was short-lived, as drought conditions returned during August. On September 7, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers announced that winter releases from the Gavins Point Dam would be 12,000 cfs.
According to John Remus, chief of the Corps' Missouri River Basin Water Management Division, the reservoir inflows during August were considerably lower than average.
Remus said that they are expecting below average inflows into the system through the remainder of 2022. He adds that based upon the storage in the system as of September 1st, the winter releases from the Gavins Point Dam will be 12,000 cfs for the second year in a row........

Mississippi River Education New Educator Joins Rivers Center........
Environmental Educator Erica Doerr recently joined the education team of the National Great Rivers Research and Education Center in East Alton, Illinois. Doerr will be responsible for the development of an earth science curriculum for teachers throughout Illinois as well as heading up community outreach events.
Doerr says that she loves working with the public and school groups, and would like to get them excited about science and the river. She adds that she got into the field to demonstrate that anyone can be a scientist and create opportunities for communities to be immersed in their unique ecosystems.

Earlier this month, the freshly minted Viking Mississippi had her maiden voyage, heading downriver from St. Paul to St. Louis, on a test run for the company's American Heartland package. On Sunday, the riverboat stopped in Hannibal on her second voyage, the return trop from St. Louis to St. Paul.

Illinois River Maintenance Illinois River Work Helps Prepare For Future Projects........
During the first week of September, crews finished up a project at the Brandon Road Lock and Dam, and work is continuing on a project at Peoria Lock and dam, which is expected to be completed in early October.
The work on these projects are steps to prepare for more major projects to be completed along the Illinois Waterway over the next several years, which will require closures. Unlike the Mississippi River, which closes seasonally, the Illinois Waterway operates year-round.
The last round of repairs and subsequent closures at multiple locks was completed between July 1 and October 29, 2020. The next series of closures is slated for June 1 to September 30, 2023. A short closure will be necessary in 2024 at Lockport, as new lift gates will not be completed until then........

Mississippi River At Alton, Illinois The Clark Bridge Closed Due To Possible Jumper........
At around 9 am Friday morning, the Alton Police and Fire Departments were dispatched to the Clark Bridge for reports of a man that had climbed over the railing. Upon arrival, the Police closed down the southbound lanes as they attempted to talk the man
The man was pacing along the ledge as cars began stopping along the levee to watch the situation unfold. Below the bridge, Alton Firefighters were aboard Marine 1, the city's fire and rescue boat, standing by.
The man spent around three hours smoking and speaking with Police before climbing down a ladder to an inspection platform below the road deck. He then climbed back up the ladder to the road deck and began calmly walking towards Missouri. Shortly after 2 pm, the man exited the span into Missouri........

Added Sunday Mississippi River at Alton, Illinois 65 Pound Blue Catfish Wins Alton Catfish Classic........
On Saturday, anglers Hunter Jones and Chris Stout reeled in a 65 pound catfish, which was the largest of the day during the Alton Catfish Classic tournament. The duo caught a three fish total weighing in at over 147 pounds to take the top prize in the tournament.
Jones says that he and Stout were fishing downriver of St. Louis around mid-morning when then hooked the big one with skipjack bait. They used a little strategy against the big cat, instead of reeling it in against the current, they chased it downstream to tire it out, and pulled the fish out straight out of the river.
The fish was still fighting during the weigh-in at the Liberty Bank Alton Amphitheater. Stout and Jones' 147 plus pound haul earned them an $18,500 payday. Tournament director Alex Nagy said that they're buying dinner tonight........

Mississippi River At Cape Girardeau, Missouri Officials: No Marina At Cape Anytime Soon........
The results of the 2022 feasibility study of a potential marina at Cape Girardeau, Missouri were recently released and it is not likely that a marina will be constructed at Cape any time soon.
The release states that the project would be too costly and does not have enough support throughout the community to warrant moving forward with the project at this time.
