Work Pictures:  From time to time as major or interesting work takes place on the lake, we will post pictures here.

 

The COE spent two days relocating the Patons for NC & VA.   Using GPS units from the US Coast Guard Aux and NCURT, each buoy was "marked" and recorded as to the position. This information may be found on our web page Buoy Locations.

 

 

Due to the excessive lake level, getting under the bridge (old) at Clarksville involved lowering the antenna's and then guiding the USCG boat to ensure clearance.  It made it, but just by a nose. That means only a couple of inches.

 

Both the USCG and the COE boats removed debris such as large logs from the lake. On the Virginia side, at buoy 24 a tree had snagged the cable and only by luck was the tree broken away from the buoy. It took both the USCG and the COE to do this feat. This was quite a large tree with 5 or 6 big branches. We are glad to have the tree out of the way and off the buoy.
