I'm Bryce Kingsley . I'm a marine

00:06.409 --> 00:08.949
mechanic . Uh we're at Lock and Dam 7

00:09.140 --> 00:11.850
in La Crescent , Minnesota . We're

00:11.850 --> 00:14.072
doing maintenance on the lock and dam .

00:14.072 --> 00:16.128
We do water the chamber beginning of

00:16.128 --> 00:18.183
December . We're doing concrete work

00:18.183 --> 00:20.294
and working on the miter gates that ,

00:20.294 --> 00:22.517
uh , open and function the lock through

00:22.517 --> 00:24.889
the summer months . Um , we're making

00:24.889 --> 00:26.945
sure they have proper fit and seal .

00:27.100 --> 00:29.340
And then also uh make sure the concrete

00:29.340 --> 00:32.500
work is done and up to spec . We just

00:32.500 --> 00:34.619
don't want anything major happening

00:34.619 --> 00:36.619
during our summer months , the busy

00:36.619 --> 00:38.786
months when there's tow boats here and

00:38.786 --> 00:40.841
and wreck crafts and everything . We

00:40.841 --> 00:42.897
never want to shut a lockdown in the

00:42.897 --> 00:42.299
summer .
