Since a TV news story a couple days ago on this closure due to a levee
collapse, I have heard nothing.  The website for the Mobile District of the
US Corps Of Engineers says absolutely nothing about it.  I just found an
email address on their website and have sent a request for information.
Will advise.

'Lo All,

Last night, our local NBC newscasters said that the Corps of
Engineers hopes to have the GIWW blockage cleared within a week. A
"local source" told me that the Corps is bringing in their own
hydraulic dredge to clear it.
