High water conditions reportedly exist at L/D 1, in the vicinity of Mile 9.1. Mariners are advised to exercise caution due to the hazardous conditions associated with strong currents, increased drift, increased drafting toward bridge piers and severe outdrafts. Mariners are advised to consider horsepower capability and tow size. Fleet operators should regularly check their fleets and immediately report barge breakaways to the U.S. Coast Guard.
