Mongomery Point L&D
The purpose of this study was to find a solution to reduce or eliminate outdraft at MPLD and produce a report that communicates the results of the HSR analysis of various river engineering measures.
The goals of this study were to:
- Investigate and provide analysis on the existing flow mechanics causing the outdraft and navigation alignment problems.
- Investigate and provide analysis on the existing flow mechanics causing the outdraft and navigation alignment problems.
- The alternative should reduce or eliminate the outdraft at MPLD.
- The alternative should reduce or eliminate the outdraft at MPLD.
- Communicate to other engineers, lockmasters, river industry personnel, and environmental agency personnel the results of the HSR model tests and the plans for improvements.
