Moolenaar Meets with Army Corps of Engineers About the Soo Locks

Today, Congressman John Moolenaar met with Lieutenant Colonel Dennis Sugrue of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. They discussed ongoing projects in Congressman Moolenaar's district and the Corps' work on the Soo Locks.

The Army Corps study regarding a new lake carrier-sized lock is expected, after multiple delays, to be completed and released to the public on June 29.

Congressman Moolenaar made the following comment on today's meeting:

"I strongly encourage the Army Corps to complete its report on the Soo Locks as soon as possible. This report is already behind schedule and it should be completed before June 29. Each day of inaction on this project raises the price of building a new Soo lock, costing the taxpayers more money. It's time for the Army Corps to get its work done."
