The Memphis District Army Corps of Engineers held a press conference on low water levels, now in their fourth consecutive year. Officials said reduced tows and grounding risks could disrupt about 660 million tons of annual cargo, including grain and fertilizer.
The Corps described dredging, monitoring and channel alignment as mitigation efforts.
