    The pool above former Elizabeth Lock and Dam is running at barely 6.5 ft,mid channel since the demolishion of the Elizabeth Lock and Dam.Normal pool is supposed to be 9ft and it cannot be maintained at the pre demolition level...Barges are forced to lighten their cargo loads due to low water levels , raising the costs of the cargo they transport... We had barely 3ft of water, post dam breech , under our boat at MM27.5 in Bunola.Due to extremely low water levels up river from the former Lock and Dam.prior to the Fiasco removal of the Dam, we had 9ft of water under our boat... This is an engineering disaster, ruining private businesses in the pool between Charleroi L&D and The former Elizabeth L&D.... Private and public boat and fish commission boat ramps are unusable between, Elizabeth and Charleroi...We were forced to find a safe place to dock our boat in Deep water in Green County... I wish I could post pictures of the devastation to the marinas and the shoreline...There was a townhall Mtg in Monongahela ,Pa, this past Monday...in which the Army corps representatives were to attend to listen to the concerns of citizens, who own river front property,public officials, Marina owners and affected boaters ...the Representatives from the Army Corps never showed up at the meeting....I wish I could post pictures of the devastation along the shoreline and the riverfront properties that are affected... Something needs to be done to rectify the damage done to the businesses affected by the extremely low water levels...
