Drone’s eye view of the St. Louis District’s Dredge Potter with the M/V Kimmswick and the M/V Prairie du Rocher on the Mississippi River by Grand Tower, Illinois. Both vessels owned and operated by the St. Louis District U. S. Army Corps of Engineers ensure safe navigation for commercial vessels on the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers. The Mississippi River is one of the busiest waterways in the United States moving 578 million tons of cargo each year with cost savings in transportation at $12.5 billion, making the mission of the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers dredges in maintaining navigation vital to our nation and one the Dredge Potter crew is dedicated to maintaining. (Photo Courtesy of Matt Piña, Deckhand, Dredge Potter)
