Thread: ? about the Chickamauga Lock

I got an email notice from Lamar Alexander and it was talking about the lock would still be funded in it's 6th year. What does this mean? I thought you could lock all the way above Knoxville. Anyone in the know, please explain. Thanks

I believe what you are talking about is funding for the new lock that is being constructed. It was announced this week the project would be getting s little over $100M. This will allow the current contract to be completed, but additional money is needed for the next contracts.
