GL: Lake Okeechobee-Ortona Lock

[Ted Stehle]

The Corps of Engineers Jacksonville District has just posted a Notice To
Mariners that the Ortona Lock will be closed for maintenance and the
installation of a Manatee Protection System from 6 am April 16, 2007 to 6 am
May 25, 2007. The Corps also stated that all required inspections will be
performed during the period so that another closure later in the year is not
required.

The complete notice may be found by going to

I will continue to follow this project and post any changes.
