Navigation Weekly Update

Corps forecast continues to indicate below normal runoff in upper basin

Navigation flow support from Gavins Point Dam continues to adjust based on tributary inflows. The flow target is approximately 35 kcfs (thousands of cubic feet per second) at Kansas City. Kansas City is the most downstream flow target on the Missouri River. Information about the operation of the Missouri River reservoirs can be found at http://www.nwd-mr.usace.army.mil/rcc/ the page for Missouri River Basin Water Management.

Maintenance of river structures continues in the St. Joseph, Missouri, area. Work is currently repairing revetments in the area. Approximately 330 thousand tons (43%) of rock repairs of the 800 thousand tons of rock repairs indentified have been completed. This work is part of the Kansas City Districts repairs to damages from the 2011 flooding. This work will continue in a generally downstream direction over the next 1-3 years.

Survey work at river mile 186 is underway. This is just upstream of I-70 bridge by Columbia.
