Lock Approach Improvements at Lock and Dam No. 22, Upper Mississippi River

Publication: World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2010: Challenges of Change

Abstract

This report is an overview of the models and guidance used to design navigation improvements for the approach to Lock 22. Two major issues for L&D 22 are hazardous outdraft currents and barge traffic delays. The frequent nature and severity of these problems has caused a desire to improve the safety and efficiency of the system. As a result, many hydraulic engineering (and other) studies have been conducted since the early 1990's.
