Engineered Log Jam


Description: Two new engineered log jams. These log
jams have been designed for the 100 year
flood event. The interlocking matrix of logs is
held in place by ballast consisting of river
coble and does not use cables. Boaters will
need to be aware of this new hazard.
Members of the paddling community have
been working with the Corps to locate the
jams in a way that will minimize--but not
eliminate--the hazard to paddlers.
