The Pictures On This
Day in
2018 ....
were taken by Captain Mike Coyle
"So were undergoing main engine overhaul at our repair yard in
Columbia IL. This yacht is coming on down the river & calls me
on the radio. Its our buddys Glenn Sadowski & Greg Sadowski.
They're taking that boat up the Ohio River to Cincinnati.
Visited for a few minutes & took some photos . Nice boat
fellers.
Some folks live a charmed life the rest of us gotta work for a
living! Ha! Ha!"

Renewed River Flooding
US National
Weather Service Saint Louis Missouri
Heavy rainfall amounts of 3-5+ inches over the next 7 days
will lead to additional river flooding next week into the
following week. The bulk of the heavy rainfall is expected
to fall in the Missouri and Mississippi River basins, thus
the highest impacts are expected along those rivers. In some
locations, values may approach the high crests of a couple
weeks ago.

Coast Guard
issues safety zone on the Illinois River due to high water
ST. LOUIS, Mo. – The Coast Guard has issued a safety zone on the Illinois
River, restricting all vessel traffic from mile marker 187 to mile marker
145.6, and mile marker 80.2 to mile marker 10 due to extremely high water
levels and fast moving currents, Tuesday.
Vessel operators may request permission to move within the safety zone from
the captain of the port representative at Coast Guard Sector Upper
Mississippi River via Ch. 16 or at (314) 269-2332.
The Coast Guard captain of the port determines when to issue a river closure
by following a Waterways Action Plan, which provides the maritime industry,
U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, state and local governments
with a coordinated plan for facilitating the safe and orderly movement of
traffic during extreme conditions on the inland rivers.
“During this extended period of high water, public safety is our number one
priority,” said Capt. Scott Stoermer, Captain of the Port, Sector Upper
Mississippi River. “I urge commercial and recreational boaters to heed all
safety advisories to avoid potentially dangerous conditions caused by floods
and fast moving water.”
Restrictions to operations will be lifted as soon as conditions improve.

ST. LOUIS, Miss – The Coast Guard has closed a portion of the Mississippi

the captain of the port representative at Coast Guard Sector Upper
Mississippi River via VHF Ch. 16 or at (314) 269-2332 at least 30 minutes

request to move within the closure zone on a case-by-base basis.
While outside the river closure zone, the Coast Guard strongly encourages
southbound transits between mile marker 179 and the JB Bridge at mile marker
168.5 only occur during daylight hours.

News Release
Coast Guard, Coast Guard Auxiliary to host National Safe
Boating Week event
Coast Guard, Coast Guard Auxiliary to host National Safe
Boating Week event
ST. LOUIS — Coast Guard Sector Upper Mississippi River is
partnering with other government agencies to spread
awareness of the importance of safe boating and wearing
proper personal flotation devices.
This year National Safe Boating Week is Saturday through May
24. The campaign promotes safe and responsible boating and
the value of consistent life jacket wear by recreational
boaters.
National Safe Boating Week is an annual observance sponsored
by the National Safe Boating Council, and endorsed and
promoted by the Coast Guard. National Safe Boating Week is
the launch of the 2019 North American Safe Boating Campaign.
For more information on boating safety, please visit the
U.S. Coast Guard's Boating Safety Division at
USCGBoating.org, or the National Safe Boating Council at
SafeBoatingCouncil.org.
The Coast Guard has a mobile app which provides essential
services and information most commonly requested by boaters.
For more information, visit
USCG.mil/mobile.
“Educating boaters on the safe practices of recreational
boating is a priority,” said Capt. Scott Stoermer, captain
of the port at Sector Upper Mississippi River. “We encourage
everyone to stay safe and to wear personal floatation
devices when operating on America’s waterways. Especially as
more people turn to our waters for recreation, we want
everyone who goes out to spend a day on the water to come
home.”

Winfield and Golden Eagle Ferries
Remain Closed........
May 17, 2019
Both the Golden Eagle Ferry and Winfield Ferry remain closed for
flooding. As most of you know the levee at Winfield was
overtopped and I believe breached just below us around the old
elevator. The water should be off our landing at Winfield
sometime this weekend but until the water is off of Hwy N we
will remain closed. As soon as we have any information to pass
along we will. It looks like Golden Eagle will be closed for
awhile yet. Based on the current river forecast our landing will
not be out for at least another week and then it will have to
drain off of Hwy B. I will post an update as soon as I have any
new information.
Thank You,
The Calhoun Ferry Company

Marine Theft Prevention......
THEFT PREVENTION
Marine theft is on an increase, and is usually done by relatively unskilled,
young amateurs who strike where they find an easy opportunity.
We can defend ourselves against this type of crime by becoming security
conscious and by practicing the following common sense crime prevention
measures, keeping in mind three factors which discourage thieves everywhere:
TIME, NOISE, VISIBILITY

Missouri Department of Conservation
News Release
Angler finds new invasive fish in St.
Francis River floodwaters........
 CAPE
GIRARDEAU, Mo. – Fisheries management biologists with the
Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) confirm an angler
caught a Northern snakehead from a borrow ditch within the St.
Francis River levees in Dunklin County. The fish was caught on
April 25. According to biologists, a Northern snakehead
population was discovered in eastern Arkansas waterways in 2008,
so they believed it was only a matter of time before it would
migrate north from the bordering state.
“This fish’s wide temperature tolerance, potential to spawn
multiple times in one year, and ability to survive in low
oxygenated waters are reasons why it’s a threat to Missouri
waters,” explained Dave Knuth, a MDC fisheries management
biologist. “The impacts of this species on native fish
populations are still to be determined in states where they’re
already established and research is ongoing in several states to
determine this invader’s true impact.”
The Northern snakehead is native to eastern China and
southeastern Russia. This species is a popular live-food fish in
the Asian markets. It was commonly imported to the United States
before the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service prohibited its
importation and interstate transportation in 2002. The Northern
Snakehead was brought for private fish farming in Monroe County,
Arkansas in 2000, before the ban was in place, and escaped from
there into Arkansas waterways...
