ST. PAUL (KWNO)-Crews will start work on a pair of area locks and dams this month.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers says the projects apply to Lock and Dam 6 in Trempealeau and Lock and Dam 10 in Guttenberg, Iowa. The corps says workers will install a double-walled sheet pile structure upstream of the auxiliary gates at both locks. The sheet pile structure will act as a redundant damming surface and a walkway.
The Corps did the same project at Locks and Dams 5 and 5A in 2020. Officials plan on completing the project by the fall and say the work should not impact commercial and recreational navigation through the locks.
