Bank Grading Unit paves way for commerce, safety
IN THE PHOTO, Memphis District Commander Col. Zachary Miller recently visited Island 68, a project site in Arkansas, where he met with the district’s hardworking Bank Grading Unit and reviewed progress made at the site thus far. Our Memphis District uses a vintage 1949 barge mounted Bucyrus-Erie dragline with a 183 foot boom and a 15 cubic yard bucket to complete grading operations. Additional earthmoving capacity is provided by a compliment of bulldozers . (USACE Photo/Jessica Haas)
