AMENDMENT – Navigation Notice 8895, 18-20 NEW END DATE FOR FLOATING GUIDEWALL RESTRICTION

Facility affected: Ice Harbor Lock and Dam – Snake River Mile 9.7

The use of the floating guide wall is restricted due to the failure of the brackets that hold the bumpers in the correct position on the floating guide wall key. Captains are requested to avoid pushing on, bumping into, or tying up to the guide wall until repairs can be made.

The floating guide wall restriction has been extended until 28 February 2019. The repair will be performed by divers which requires a one day navigation lock outage during the winter fish ladder outage in January – February 2019. The floating guide wall repair is scheduled for mid-February 2019, and the temporary navigation lock closure will coordinated with the navigation stakeholders prior to the posting the navigation notice.
