Saint Lawrence Seaway Additional Locks Study. Geotechnical Report.
This report presents geotechnical data used to assist in the selection of future additional lock and channel locations at four proposed alternative sites along a section of the St. Lawrence Seaway. The proposed alternatives include: 'Twin' locks at the existing Eisenhower and Snell locks,...
