Happy Fall, all!

As the season begins to change remember life jackets are always in fashion and should be worn anytime you’re near the water. So, size your life jacket right, buckle or zip it up, and have fun recreating. @pleasewearit

Crews used a massive crane to remove Tainter Gate #3 at Boggs Lock & Dam on the Red River. Meanwhile, inspectors completed the initial HSS inspection of Gate #4, replaced earlier this summer. Together, this work supports safer, more resilient navigation. #USACE #VicksburgDistrict
