An extension has already been requested and denied by the Army Corps.

They're only loading at South of #2 the shiploader. The last time they had a backup of boats it took 7 days to clear the backlog. That was the end of December/early January.

Saturday January 9, there are 12 vessels scheduled to load in Two Harbors, including 5 thousand footers. Do you think the Lake Carriers Association would request an extension of the locks closing date of January 15?
