Invitation to Upper Mississippi Flood, Sediment, Drought Open Sessions
Following is our invitation to participate and share our thoughts toward developing a regional plan for the river. Hannibal, Missouri and Godfrey, Illinois are the locations closest to our region.
It is important that Neighbors of the Mississippi has a good showing of our members in attendance.
The meeting format will be small group discussions. Those in attendance will be asked to sign up for a topic when they arrive. The topics will be Flood Risk Management, Drought Response, and Erosion and Sediment Management. As the Flood of 2019 continues to affect our lives and livelihoods, we anticipate most of the Neighbors of the Mississippi membership will be interested in the Flood Risk Management discussions.

Potentially Harmful Blue-Green Algae Blooming In Floodwaters........
A potentially toxic cocktail is brewing in floodwaters across the heartland, and this muck can be quite harmful to humans and animals.
The sludge is called blue-green algae, and in most cases, it s harmless. If the algae is allowed to fester in the summer sun, it is able to produce toxins that quickly spread across the shallow surface water.
The blue-green algae is starting to bloom in the flooded portions of Northern Alexander County, Illinois. Currently, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency is warning the public that conditions are ideal for the algae to grow........

Mississippi River At Chester, Illinois
Chester Bridge Closed.... MoDOT Will Be Busy After Water Recedes....
The Route 51 Chester Bridge spanning the Mississippi River is currently closed due to flooding. It is located northeast of Perryville, Missouri and southwest of Chester, Illinois, and it is the only bridge across the river between St. Louis and Cape Girardeau, Missouri.
Once the floodwaters recede, crews with the Missouri Department of Transportation will have work to do before a closed bridge or roadway can reopen. MoDOT Southeast District Maintenance Engineer Tammy Hefner says that there is a process to reopening a bridge or roadway in order to guarantee the safety of travelers.
In order to reopen the Chester Bridge, the water will have to recede from the bridge's girders, and then crews will be able to inspect the bridge, remove debris, deconstructing the levee wall and inspecting and making necessary repairs to the roadway........
