Mississippi River At Alton, Illinois Melvin Price's Main Lock Has Reopened........
Once again, barges are moving through the main lock at the Melvin Price Locks and Dam No.26 at Alton, Illinois. The main lock chamber recently reopened after being closed since the first of the year to facilitate the start of a three phase process to replace the vertical lift gate.
Alberici Constructors, Ltd. was awarded a $9.9 million contract for modifications to the adjacent piers for the installation of the new lift gate. Currently, workers at Alabama-based C&G Steel, a steel fabrication company, are fabricating the actual lift gate under a $7.7 million contract.
The third and final phase of the project will be the installation of the new gate. The project will require that the main lock be closed again in 2024 for the lift gate to be installed........

Missouri River Runoff Recent Blizzards Increases Runoff Forecast........
Recent spring snowstorms within the Missouri River Basin have improved the runoff forecast for the Missouri River above Sioux City, Iowa. On Friday, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers raised this year's runoff forecast to 26.4 million acre-feet, which is 103 percent of average, an increase over last month's 21.5 MAF. The average runoff is 25.7 MAF.
Runoff into the Missouri River Basin above Sioux City was 1.7 MAF, which is only 57 percent of average. This figure, however, does not include the blizzard that swept across the Dakotas this past week.
John Remus, chief of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Missouri River Basin Water Management Division says that spring precipitation, including the increased mountain snowpack and late season plains snow has improved runoff conditions across the upper basin........

Mississippi River Opinions Is A Flood Wall The Best Solution To Alton's Flooding Woes?
During a recent meeting of the Alton Riverfront Committee, a committee member suggested splitting the group into four smaller groups to discuss issues including a flood wall. Despite lack of public input, it appears that a floodwall will be built along Alton's riverfront.
Currently, engineers are developing plans for a permanent, five-foot-tall concrete flood wall along Sugar Alley, mere feet from Broadway/Highway 67 between Piasa and William Streets. Reportedly, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers completed a sturdy of flooding in Alton and determined that a flood wall will be the most expensive option out of a number of flood mitigation options.
The question is, why was the flood wall chosen and Broadway the best spot for it's construction? Will this planned flood wall accommodate the additional water displaced by the new Ardent Mills' flood wall? Despite these concerns, Alton's development director says that they will present plans to the city council later this year for a vote to proceed with construction........

Mississippi River Near Winona, Minnesota Barriers Proposed As Part Of $17 Million Proposal To Slow Invasive Species........
A bill currently in the Minnesota legislature would allocate close to $17 million to limit invasive carp movement up the Mississippi River, including funding to catch carp via fishing, researching how dam gates open and installing a device using sound and bubbles at Lock and Dam No.5 north of Winona.
Proposals for a carp barrier come on the heels of a record catch of silver carp in March south of Winona. The low population of invasive carp combined with the fact that the captured fish were all born within the same year indicates that there is not a breeding population around that part of the Mississippi River.
University of Minnesota professor Peter Sorensen says that no one has the technology to stop or control the carp 100 percent, but if you can prevent enough adults from passing through that they can't reproduce, there may be a chance to stop them........

Mississippi River At Moline, Illinois Engineers Discuss Demolishing Old I-74 Bridge, Saving Costs, The Environment........
Even as crews are working to demolish the old Interstate 74 Bridge spanning the Mississippi River, two lead engineers gave a presentation at Western Illinois University's Quad Cities campus on how their crews are managing issues that crop up.
George Ryan, the I-74 Quad Cities corridor manager says that the greatest challenge is that whenever you are working on a river, be it high or low water, there are a lot of different things, including the surrounding environment.
Ryan adds that experts determined that the best approach to demolishing the bridge is to disassemble the structure and carefully excavate it's concrete supports as opposed to imploding the span........

Back in May 2022, 32 year old Caleb Gage drowned while on a canoe trip with a friend when his boat capsized near a low-head dam along the Missouri River near the Howell Island Conservation Area.
Last week, Gage's family filed suit in St. Louis County Circuit Court claiming that two Missouri agencies failed to keep the waterway safe. The suit names the Missouri Department of Conservation and the Missouri Department of Natural Resources.
The lawsuit claims that dam created a strong current that caused the canoe to capsize, causing Gage's death. The suit alleges that the dam was in disrepair and the state failed to remove access to the chute or warn boaters of the unsafe conditions........

This work was the second phase of a three phase plan for replacing the main chamber's lift gates. Phase II was the demolition of the overlook and the construction of a new one that will not affect the access of the lift gates.
Phase III, the replacement of the lift gates, will be carried out in the winter of 2025 and will require another lock closure. The lift gates are currently being fabricated and should be completed later this summer........

Upper Mississippi River Valley "Worst Case Scenario" Weather May Mean Major Flooding........
The forecast for the Upper Mississippi River Basin is predicting above-normal temperatures and precipitation for the region over the next two weeks. This is expected to cause snowpacks to melt in Wisconsin and Minnesota.
The latest flood risk briefing from the National Weather Service's Quad Cities Bureau, these conditions have created a 50 percent or greater chance of major flooding along the Mississippi River, from Dubuque, Iowa to Burlington, Iowa.
Senior NWS hydrologist Matt Wilson says that this is a bit of the worst case scenario that he has been warning of since February. He adds that this may be the start of a more severe spring flood season than we would have otherwise hoped for........

Mississippi River At Alton, Illinois Alton's Proposed Flood Wall Under Discussion........
During the recent meeting of the Alton Riverfront Committee, a committee member suggested that the group divide into smaller groups to discuss matters including the flood wall.
Despite the lack of public input and the question of if a flood wall is the best solution for Alton's flooding issues, the wall is happening. Currently, engineers are developing plans for a permanent five foot tall concrete structure along Sugar Alley between Piasa and William Streets near Broadway and Highway 67.
Why was the wall option selected and the location along Broadway determined to be the best spot for it? Will the planned structure be able to accommodate the additional water displaced by the new Ardent Mills floodwall?

Ohio River Near Louisville, Kentucky Crews Removed 1,400 Tons Of Methanol From Wayward Barge........
On Tuesday, crews were working to remove one of two barges still stuck on the Ohio River following last week's crash. The barges are lodged against the McAlpine Dam. One of the barges was carrying 1,400 tons of methanol.
Crews worked to offload the methanol onto the a receiving barge in a process that took several hours. The U.S. Coast Guard had closed the river to traffic as a precaution.
Over 1,600 air and water samples have been collected and all have tested negative for the presence of methanol. Louisville Water has also stated that there is no impact on the city's drinking water as the barges are downstream of the water intake........

Picture of the Day A Bit of St. Louis Riverfront History
The Photo of the Day..... is from Vintage St Louis & Route 66.
April 4, 1998 - A runaway barge slammed into the President Casino on the Admiral. One of the mooring lines was cut, and the Admiral swung out into the river. Fifty people were hurt and two thousand gamblers had to wait for hours to be evacuated by boat. The Admiral was later moved upstream to Laclede’s Landing, away from the barge traffic.

Looking Up-River
Mississippi River At St. Paul, Minnesota Rising River Levels Prompt Flood Emergency Declaration.......
As the Mississippi River rises, officials in St. Paul, Minnesota have declared a local flood emergency. St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter says that the procedural declaration is the first step in making a quick response to the forecasted flooding on of the Mississippi River.
Carter says that due to the recent snowfall, continuing snowmelt and additional forecasted precipitation, they are expecting significant spring flooding from the Mississippi River.
The declaration will give St. Paul's emergency management department the power to call on aid and resources from other local and state agencies and guarantees the city's eligibility for federal aid and reimbursement if necessary........

Mississippi River Near Alton, Illinois Excitement Increases About Piasa Park Redevelopment Project........
The recent unveiling of the new Alton Piasa Park Redevelopment Project has driven an increase in the energy towards the City of Alton itself, the National Scenic Byway and tourism in the region.
Cory Jobe, CEO and President of the Great Rivers and Routes Tourism Bureau says that they have been working hard on the project for about a year. He said that they considered other locations for the new discovery center project, but they knew that they needed to redevelop Piasa Park.
Jobe adds that the project will help develop the product for visitors that travel the National Scenic Byway. He says that there will also be improvements made at the Lewis and Clark Tower in Hartford to improve it's look as well as make it more user friendly........

Mississippi River Valley Spring Brings Return Of Commerce, Raises Concerns Along The Mississippi River........
The month of April has arrived, and with it comes increased concerns about the Mississippi River watershed. State and federal officials are preparing for the possibility of spring flooding, while last fall's drought that halted barge traffic looms in the background.
The drought was an expensive reminder that the vital Mississippi River is quite vulnerable. Lou Dell'Orco, chief of operations for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, St. Louis District says that people don't realize it, but the Mississippi River is major shipping artery.
It is uncertain what this spring will bring to the Mississippi River Valley, an the National Weather Service's spring flooding forecast calls the risk for flooding "well above normal"........

River History....
April 4, 1998 In River History
About 7:50 pm on April 4, 1998, a tow of the M/V Anne Holly, comprising 12
loaded and 2 empty barges, which was traveling northbound on the Mississippi
River through the St. Louis Harbor, struck the Missouri-side pier of the
center span of the Eads Bridge. Eight barges broke away from the tow and
drifted back through the Missouri span. Three of these barges drifted toward
the Admiral. The drifting barges struck the Admiral, causing 8 of its 10
mooring lines to break. The Admiral then rotated clockwise downriver, away
from the Missouri riverbank. The captain of the Anne Holly disengaged his
vessel from the six remaining barges in the tow and placed the Anne Holly’s
bow against the Admiral’s bow to hold it against the bank. About the time
the Anne Holly began pushing against the Admiral, the Admiral’s next-to-last
mooring line parted. The Anne Holly and the single mooring wire that
remained attached to the Admiral’s stern anchor held the Admiral near the
Missouri bank. No deaths resulted from the accident; 50 people were examined
for minor injuries. Of those examined, 16 were sent to local hospitals for
further treatment. Damages were estimated at $11 million. |

Lake Of The Ozarks Sunrise Fire District Adds Another Fire Boat........
The Sunrise Beach Fire Protection District recently doubled their fleet of fireboats, as on Saturday, April 1, 2023, the Board of Directors voted 4 - 1 to approve the purchase of an additional boat for the district.
The vessel is a 2015 Stanley Marine Fire Boat that was purchased used from the Sculleville Fire Protection District in New Jersey. The vessel is a 32 foot aluminum deck boat fitted with twin 200 Horsepower Yamaha engines, a 1,500 gpm pump, landing ramp, deck crane, radar and all band radios.
If purchased new, the vessel is estimated to cost $300,000 or more. The District paid $175,000 for it. The funding was taken from a money market account that was set up for the purchase of new air packs. The District was recently awarded a $264,000 AFG Grant for air packs, so the funds were freed up........

Asian Carp Update One Year After Asian Carp Rebranding........
Overt the past 20 years, a series of four freshwater fish species, collectively known as Asian carp, have become quite the nuisance in waterways across the Midwest.
Plenty of strategies have been formulated to keep the carp in check, including a re-branding effort by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources that changed the invasive species name from Asian carp to copi, a play on the word, copious.
The IDNR's mission was simple, to get the carp out of the waterways and into people's tummies. Kevin Irons, the assistant chief of fisheries for the IDNR says that Copi is a clean, tender and flaky meat that is perfect for fish fries and is versatile enough to be used in empanadas and Rangoon........

Added Sunday Upper Mississippi River Asian Carp Heading Up-River........
Invasive Asian carp are slowly but surely making their way up the Mississippi River and it may not be long before they start to appear in large numbers in Lake Pepin.
The Lake Pepin Legacy Alliance is hoping to see mitigation before that happens in order to protect the river and it's tributaries. The carp have taken over portions of the Lower Mississippi River and affected the economies of river towns.
Friends of the Mississippi River propose to a barrier or deterrent that is sometimes referred to as a "disco wall" that would be installed at Lock and Dam No.5 near Winona.

Mississippi River Near Alton, Illinois 7 Year Old Reels In A Monster Catfish........
During a recent fishing trip on the Mississippi River near Alton, Illinois with her father, 7 year old Layla Sapp nearly met her match when she hooked into a monster catfish.
Layla's father, Tyler Sapp says that the fish was nearly as tall as she is, and nearly as heavy as well. The tyke weighs 55 pounds, and the catfish ended up weighing 49 pounds..
