The
Ohio River is rising and is projected to reach 16.4 feet, on
Saturday, April 12. This is 4.4 feet above normal pool and seven
feet below flood stage. At that elevation, the river will be just
over the top of the walkway in Waterfront Park and along the
Fourth Street Wharf.
The Buchanan
and Fourth Street flood pumping stations will be placed in service
on Friday, April 11, per normal operating schedule. There is no
need, at this time, to erect any floodwall street closures.
MSD will
continue to monitor weather forecasts and river elevations.
Additional information will be forthcoming, as conditions change.
