The Coast Guard amended high-water restrictions for tows on the Lower Mississippi between mile markers 439 and 303, cancelling earlier notices. Downbound tows face limits on width, horsepower per barge and total tow size, and upbound tows must maintain minimum speeds near bridges.
Tow size and horsepower limits reduce barge capacity through the Vicksburg bridges, which can slow grain movements and raise freight costs for Gulf-bound shipments.
