We were talking about it the other day. The lock and dams were awesome to control the water levels, but there is no dredging program to maintain the river channel or cuts into oxbows and side lakes. One big rain and a cut you've hauled arse through for 5 years is a sand bar, or worse 6 inches deep and you don't know it. The sand in the water is also hard on impellars/water pumps.

I've been going to Toledo a lot myself. Haven't been on the river in a couple of years now it seems.
