ZOAR, OH —

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is continuing its interim risk reduction measures on the Zoar Levee. TAB Construction, contractor for the Corps is 60 percent complete with the initial filter placement.
To increase the level of protection, Corps officials decided to expand the area and depth of the filter blanket. The work is expected to be completed by Saturday. Corps inspectors continue to monitor the levee around the clock.
The Corps continues releases from Bolivar and Dover Dams. Water levels behind the dams continue to drop.
For more information, contact the public affairs office at (304) 399-5551 or (304) 360-1744 or visit www.lrh-wc.usace.army.mil/wc/distns.htm
This doesn't sound too good. I hope they are able to do something quick to save the town!
