What will happen if nothing is done to improve navigation along the White River?
The corps will continue to provide the authorized annual maintenance requirements. The Corps is responsible for maintaining 4.5 ft. depth by 100 ft. width, in a channel from August (River Mile 198) to Newport (River Mile 254); and 8 ft. by 125 ft. from the Arkansas Post Canal (River Mile 10) to River 198 when the river is at stages equal or greater than 12 feet on the Clarendon gauge, with a 5 ft. minimum depth at lower stages.
