The sunrise illuminates the mooring dolphins guarding the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, W. P. Franklin Lock and Dam, located along the Caloosahatchee River, approximately 33 miles upstream of the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. The Corps constructed and currently manages five locks along the 152-mile Okeechobee Waterway. W.P. Franklin Lock and Dam was constructed in 1965 for flood control, water control, prevention of salt-water intrusion, and navigation purposes.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers makes a difference by maintaining critical infrastructure, we operate approximately 240 navigation lock chambers at more than 190 sites and manage dams in 44 states. (U.S. Army Photo by Brigida I. Sanchez)
