NEW ORLEANS - The Coast Guard captain-of-the-port at New Orleans, Capt. Will Watson, has opened the Lower Mississippi River (LMR) to all vessel traffic in New Orleans and key ports throughout SE Louisiana on Sept. 3 following Hurricane Ida. After the successful removal of several power lines obstructing the waterway due to a downed transmission tower near mile marker 106.5 and a survey of the ship channel in key areas of concern, the waterway has been deemed open for all marine traffic.
