The view at Olmsted on the day that the Ribbon was cut
some of the Wickets are up.
Below the rest of the Wickets go up on the 4th.

September 4, 2018 All the wickets at Olmsted are up.
The Olmsted, Illinois Locks and Dam is now up and running.
The chief operating engineer says all 140 wickets are standing at Olmsted Locks and Dam.
Once the locks and dam is fully operational, it should reduce locking time from up to five hours to an hour or less.


The Louisville District successfully raised the remaining 43 wickets yesterday, September 4, 2018,
at Olmsted making substantial progress to close out the first Olmsted Dam raising.
