Webbers Falls Barge Removal

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Tulsa District

Aug. 27, 2019 | 1:31

Salvage crews prepare a barge for removal from Webbers Falls Lock and Dam 16 near Gore, Oklahoma, August 27. Crews were able to remove one of the barges which was blocking four gates and preventing the Tulsa District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers from lowering four of the gates on the dam. Two barges came unmoored during the May 2019 flood in Oklahoma and struck Webbers Falls Dam on May 23. The barges are being removed by McKinney Salvage and Heavy Lift, Inc which was hired by the barge operator.
Webbers Falls Lock and Dam primarily facilitates navigation by managing the pool on the McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System which allows commerce through shipping on the Arkansas River from Oklahoma to the Mississippi River.
