    The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Memphis District officially launched its new, $25.5 million Bank Grading Unit (BGU), “Grader 1”, with a May 2 christening ceremony, May 2, in downtown Memphis, Tennessee. Selected to carry out Grader 1's christening was retired bank grading unit operator, Carl Hammitte, Sr.
    The new grading unit will be an essential part of the Mississippi Valley Division’s revetment operations. These operations prepare the riverbanks for articulated concrete mattress (ACM) placement from the river's edge out to the toe of the riverbank slope.
