Only One Towboat Stil Above Dam 16 on River
River observers report Mississippi navigation near Muscatine nearly ended as only the towboat C. B. Southern remained upstream from Dam No. 16 after the Ouachita passed Lock No. 16 at 2 am. The Southern moved downstream from Bettendorf and reportedly locked through Rock Island at 6:30 am with its last barges. Ice limits movement. towboats now pull barges on steel cables through narrow paths, causing lengthy lockages. The Cayuga, once headed upstream, abandoned plans beyond Meeker’s landing above Burlington.
