Canal and locks at chain of rocks, Mississippi River
Overall plan consists of upper canal leaving river at mile 194, just below mouth of Missouri, locks located about 6 1/2 mi downstream, and lower canal, slightly more than one mile long, entering Mississippi at mile 184, all designed to afford channel compatible with that provided in open and canalized sections of river; improvement, about 8 mi long, provides bypass two miles shorter than natural river.
