Delta Queen fate in House vote hangs on exemption
The Delta Queen faces a House vote on exemption from the marine safety law to November 1, 1978. Owner William Muster argues it remains a major river steamer with high capacity, while the Coast Guard labels it a fire risk despite safety upgrades. The paddlewheeler, built in 1926, has not seen a passenger death in 83 years. Nearby river operations report fire safety measures and ongoing dredging needs at Choctaw Bend as Mississippi River towing bottlenecks persist.
