    Key leaders from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the U.S. Navy’s Supervisor of Salvage and Diving observe ongoing salvage work in the Fort McHenry Federal Channel Friday morning, June 7, 2024.

    Col. Estee S. Pinchasin, USACE, Baltimore District commander (shown 2nd from the right), remains confident salvage work is nearing its crescendo. “We remain confident we will have the Federal Channel fully restored in the next few days. We’re using the same detailed process as when opening the three alternate channels and the Limited Access Channel. Once the wreckage is cleared, we will sweep the area with sonar, LIDAR and magnetometer, to investigate any high spots, ensuring there’s no hazard to navigation.”

    “We are going to be as thorough and disciplined as we have been since the beginning – we owe it to Baltimore and the Port, to turn over a safe navigation channel they can use with the greatest of confidence,” Pinchasin said.

    Also appearing in the photo from USACE North Atlantic Division (left to center) is Deputy Division Commander Col. Bob McTighe, Aide-de-Camp Capt. Chase DeCarr, and Brig. Gen. John Lloyd, along with Director of SupSalv Salvage Operations Paul Hankins (right).
