Due to the Dredge GEORGIA located 900 ft into the river from Napoleon Ave Wharf MM-99.7 LDB, one-way traffic, no meeting or overtaking, is directed for ships and large towing vessels from MM-99 to MM-100. The dredge is discharging approximately 725 ft from the east (LDB) bank. Vessels may find there is enough room to pass the dredge on the east (LDB) bank, between the pier and the discharge, with permission from the dredge. Dredge GEORGIA is monitoring CH-67 VHF-FM
