Members jimalert3 Posted May 30, 2020 Members Posted May 30, 2020 Years ago while working for the USDepartment of agriculture a group of our employes we invited to take a tour down the Missippi to see the work they had done on the river. Later we tried to tell them they were causeing mor flooding. dtrs5kprs and magicwormman 2
MickinMO Posted May 30, 2020 Posted May 30, 2020 They have put two or three more wing dikes in on the Missouri that you can see just from the Jeff City bridge in the last few years. Who knows how many that you can't see from the road. All under the guise of deepening the channel. Sorry, but barge traffic between Jeff City and Omaha ain't coming back. The only barges above Jeff City are local sand dredging operations. Jeff City government leaders are trying to establish a port authority thinking that all these barges will start coming up from St Louis. If it was feasible and made money they would never have stopped doing it. Throwing more tax incentives and federal dollars at a ruse. dtrs5kprs and magicwormman 2
