The Great Bridge locks in Chesapeake, VA serve primarily to separate the salt water from the fresh water on each side of the canal. In this video, Dennis Barnes, a Safety and Occupational Health Specialist for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers-Norfolk District, briefly explains how the gates work and how the saltwater corrodes the gate components overtime. The locks repaired in this video had been submerged for nearly twenty years.
