    U. S. Geological Survey staff counts spawning Lake Sturgeon with sonar equipment at the Melvin Price Locks and Dam in West Alton, Mo. during April 2023. Dozens of the state endangered species were observed. Biologists working with water management engineers have learned how to adjust the Tainter gates at the Melvin Price Locks and Dam creating the presumed desired flow patterns along the shoreline for spawning.
