Dredging Seen Not Serious Threat to River Habitat
U.S. Corps of Engineers spokesman Maj. Gen. Ernest Graves said dredging on the Upper Mississippi River Basin affects only two tenths of 1 percent of the area and does not pose a serious menace to fish and wildlife. He noted the need to balance economic goals of keeping a nine foot channel open with environmental impact and said disposal methods will be pursued in liaison with Fish and Wildlife Service.
