The updated schedule of work as provided by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on September 16, 2022 is here.

The first revetment operations on the Mississippi River Ship Channel are scheduled to start at White Castle (Mile 193.6 Above Head of Passes) on October 3 (2022).

Please note that the transit restrictions at the three listed White Castle locations will not allow deep-draft or ship transits through the revetment locations during working hours (0600 hours to 1900 hours) on the dates of work as listed. The developed restrictions are: “No deep-draft or shiptransits during working hours. MSU to fold in at night.”

The USACE has made substantial changes to the previous schedule and the BRC wanted to get this notice out to confirm the new dates for the first revetment site on the Mississippi River Ship Channel this year will begin on October 3, 2022. The U.S. Coast Guard will soon be issuing a Marine Safety Information Bulletin detailing the transit restrictions for the revetment locations, another update will be issued when the MSIB has been officially released.
