The Dredge Goetz operator explains to a T.V. crew how he maneuvers the dredge to maintain the 9-foot navigation channel while working near Read’s Landing, Minn., on May 30. The dredge – one of five dredging operations working on the Upper Mississippi River from St. Paul to Guttenberg, Iowa – will next move a few miles downstream as the district works to keep the navigation channel open for commercial tows, a high priority task given the amount of sediment moved into the channel due to spring flooding.
