Chickamauga Lock

Here's a detailed design specification

Project Abstract:

• A concrete aggregate problem will cause the current lock to be closed without aggressive maintenance.
• Construction was initiated in summer 2007, and a Road and Bridge Relocation contract ($16M) was completed in FY07.
• $27 million was available in FY07 for cofferdam construction and lock design.
• $35 million is in the FY08 budget to continue construction and design.
• Construction of the new lock will follow the 34-month cofferdam contract.
