Study on barge strike on Lesner Bridge, barge strike Accident Report from May 2008

Remember the crazy idea to have a permanent public & private dredge spoils transfer station at the LBR&BR?
The idea is not dead yet but we finally have more info we can share.

We finally received a summary of the report done by Clark-Nexsen studying what damage would be done if a loaded barge operating at the proposed transfer station would strike the Lesner.
Scope and Work Summary [4pg PDF].
This is the report that was requested back in April.

Remember the hit and run barge strike in May ‘08 that didn’t make the MSM?
Here’s the Accident Report [5pg PDF].

Thanks to Lee for both docs from her FOIA request.
