The John P. Murtha Locks and Dam logo and animation were designed for the renaming of Monongahela River Locks and Dam 4 to the John P. Murtha Locks and Dam, in honor of the late Congressman John P. Murtha, who also served in the Marine Corps in Vietnam. The dedication ceremony took place on the Monongahela River in Monessen, Pennsylvania, Aug. 28, 2024. It highlighted 20 years of construction for a modernized chamber measuring 720 feet long by 84 feet wide, which replaces an older, smaller chamber. The construction also included a control tower with state-of-the-art systems and the potential to remote-control other facilities in the future. The new chamber expands the facility’s capacity to support commercial navigation throughout the region and the nation.
