The Tulsa District relies upon two tows and one crane barge to perform maintenance on structures and keep navigation moving on the McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System. When those vessels require periodic or need-based maintenance we turn to the Ensley Engineer Yard of the Memphis District. This full-service marine maintenance facility keeps U.S. Army Corps of Engineers navigation-related vessels operating on the Mississippi River and throughout the nation.
Metalworkers like Joey Cabay make repairs to dredging boats, tows, and maintenance barges for USACE districts. Their efforts enable billions of dollars in goods to use the nation’s Marine Highways.
Joey joined us to talk about the metalwork section, how to become a metalworker, and why metalworkers should consider a career with the Corps of Engineers.
