At Locks and Dam 15 in Rock Island, Illinois, “last chance lines” hang below the Government Bridge. These critical lifelines allow distressed boaters in the restricted upstream area to anchor themselves and avoid being swept into the dam while awaiting rescue. At other lock and dam sites, similar lines hang directly from the dam structure.
