Some Highlights of This Week's

LOCAL NOTICE TO MARINERS

District 8 MRS UPDATED September 22, 2021

Mississippi River System

MISSISSIPPI RIVER

MILE 183.2 - BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION
Merchants Railroad Bridge; A 24-hour blockage of the channel for the removal of the old main navigation (Illinois) span has been scheduled for September 14, 2021. A second 24-hour blockage will occur September 17, 2021, to install the new span. These dates are dependent upon weather and river conditions encountered between now and the dates noted.

MILE 184.0 - DREDGE OPERATION
Continuing until approximately September 24, 2021, the Dredge POTTER will be conducting dredging operations in the vicinity of Mile 184.0, Lower Chain of Rocks Canal Entrance. Work will be conducted 24-hours a day, 7-days a week. The floating plant will consist of the Dredge POTTER, tender boats, small boats, barges and pipeline. While dredging, dredge spoils will be pumped through a pontoon line or self-floating pipeline, which may be crossing the channel and is placed outside of the navigation channel. Mariners should be on the lookout for tender boats, small survey boats and dredge pipeline when transiting the area. Minor traffic delays may be experienced in the area. The Dredge POTTER will monitor VHF-FM Channel 13 or 16. Mariners are urged to transit the area at their slowest safe speed and proceed with caution after passing arrangements have been made

ILLINOIS RIVER

MILE 157.7 - INVASIVE CARP DETERRENCE
The USACE Rock Island District, and the Engineer Research and Development Center, are planning to test invasive carp deterrence technology at the Peoria Lock and Dam on the Illinois River, Mile 157.7. Work is planned for November 3 and 4, 2021, from 7:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m., each day. Navigation will be closed during installation and while testing is conducted. These timeframes are subject to change based upon river conditions. Safety testing consists of passing loaded barges over a line of air bubbles to determine the effect it has on the handling and maneuverability of the tow. Multiple runs would be conducted over an approximate 30-day period. Quantitative variables of interest include speed, yaw and lateral movement of the barge resulting from the continuous release of air from the air line. The study would be conducted mainly during daylight hours, when the wicket gates are up (impounding water in the Peoria Pool). The purpose of the test is to evaluate navigation safety when using bubbles to remove small invasive carp (silver and bighead carp) from the rake-box junction of a barge tow. This action involves the temporary installation of an anchored airline, in the downstream lock approach channel (see map, Enclosure 1). The airline will be attached to a series of metal frames to hold it on the bottom using the weight of the frame to hold it in place. It is approximately 210 feet long, perforated with a series of nozzles spaced 8 feet apart that will release air to create a column of bubbles along the length of the line. Air will be fed through a hose from a diesel-powered air compressor located on the Peoria Lock and Dam Project grounds. The hose would be routed from the surface through recesses in the lock approach wall to avoid interference with navigation. The air pressure within the hose will vary with each test parameter. Weights will hold the hose to the bottom between the ladder recess to the bubbler array. The airline and metal frames would be installed and removed using a barge mounted lift crane before and after testing. Mariners are urged to exercise caution in the area.

MISSOURI RIVER -

WATERWAYS ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT SYSTEM STUDY
The U.S. Coast Guard is conducting a Waterways Analysis and Management System (WAMS) study of the Missouri River from the confluence of the Mississippi River (Missouri River Mile 0.0 to Mile 732.3), in the vicinity of Sioux City, MO. The study focuses on the area’s aids to navigation
system, waterborne commerce, marine casualty information, port/harbor resources, emergency response plans, routine and emergency communication capabilities, and future development projects. Any interested company or individual wishing to provide comments or participate in a user survey should do so by September 28, 2021. The survey is available at: https://forms.gle/Y5Mm2iKWq7AJsvx7A
Questions on the study can be directed to: SUMRWaterways@uscg.mil.

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 100.0 – Mile 200.0) and
Washington (Mile 0.0 – Mile 100.0).
Deep draft tows are advised to depart these areas. Mariners shall transit these areas at their slowest safe speed near fleeting areas to minimize wake impact, due to narrow channel width. Tow operators are advised to place the heaviest barges in the middle of the tow and identify fleeting
areas in the event of a river closure.

Mississippi River At St. Louis, Missouri

Truss Installed On Merchants Bridge From Barges........

On September 17th, a milestone was reached on the $222 million project to replace the Merchants Bridge spanning the Mississippi River at St. Louis, Missouri, when crew hoisted the first of three trusses into place from river barges.

The Merchants Bridge dates back to 1890 and carries six Class I railroads and Amtrak across the Mississippi River and is one of the nation's primary east-west rail corridors. The span's replacement is one of the St. Louis Metro region's top infrastructure priorities.

The span, owned by the Terminal Railroad Association of St. Louis, required rebuilding because of speed, clearance and load restrictions. The project involves the removal and replacement of the three river span trusses, seismically retrofitting the existing river piers and making improvements to the east approach........

Green Boating News

Ingenity Electric Believes Rapid Charging Station Installations Will Speed Adoption Of Electric Boats........

The adoption of electric boats and their required rapid charging stations presents a double-edged sword of sorts, as consumers would likely purchase e-boats if they have a place to charge them, however, marinas won't install charging stations until enough e-boats are on the water to use them.

Ingenity Electric, a project of Correct Craft's Watershed Innovation division is working to solve the problem by creating a baseline standard for fast charging technology that may be used with boats from a variety of manufacturers.

In Mid-May, Ingenity Electric assisted in the installation of the first electric boat charging station on Lake Tahoe, California. The station utilized Combined Charging System technology, which Ingenity is betting will become the industry standard foe e-boat manufacturers and marina charging stations........

Call For Volunteers

15th Annual Mississippi Earthtones Festival River Clean-up

News Release

ALTON, IL -- The Sierra Club Illinois’ Three Rivers Project and the National Great Rivers Research and Education Center (NGRREC) are calling for volunteers to support the 15th annual Mississippi Earthtones Festival River Clean-up. The river clean-up, which will be held from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM on Saturday, September 25, is part of the Three Rivers Project and the National Great Rivers Research and Education Center’s ongoing conservation work. Volunteers and staff will work together to rid the islands and shorelines of the beautiful Mississippi River of trash and debris. Interested community members should sign up to volunteer at the clean-up by September 23.

“To date, the Mississippi Earthtones Festival River Clean up has netted over 36 tons of trash and has recycled 8 tons of recyclable materials”, said Christine Favilla, Three Rivers Project Co-Coordinator. “As we look forward to another successful year of conservation work, we ask that each volunteer determine their comfort level when participating in in-person activities with the public at this time. Masks will be mandatory during the boat ride and during check-in, and we will maintain social distancing as much as possible. Volunteers’ safety is paramount and we appreciate the community’s cooperation.”

This important conservation work is made possible by our partners, including the Beasley Fish Brothers, the Audubon Center at Riverlands, National Public Lands Day, the Army Corps of Engineers, and the National Great Rivers Research and Education Center.

“The National Great Rivers Research and Education Center (NGRREC) is proud to partner with Sierra Club Illinois to contribute to educating the public about the health of our great rivers,” says Sarah Fisher, Director of Environmental Education at NGRREC. “The river clean-up scheduled in honor of National Public Lands Day is a wonderful opportunity for our community to come together and give back to the rivers that sustain us. Through community volunteerism and education, we can help facilitate meaningful impacts on our public lands and waterways.”

Volunteers will receive a free boat ride, lunch, and t-shirt! Interested community members can learn more about the river clean-up and register to participate at sc.org/MEF_RiverCleanUp21.
