Funds Sought to Develop Ohio River Valley Waterways
A regional delegation led by a Gov. Giligan representative urged Congress to provide special funds for water resources in the Ohio River Valley. The Ohio Valley Improvement Assoc. cites the navigation system handling more inland waterborne freight than the rest of the Mississippi system combined and calls for replacing old locks and dams to curb rising flood losses, projected up to 296 million annually by 2020. William Nye backed clean up of Lake Erie with several projects including the Cleveland-Cuyahoga River waste study and restoration survey.
