As part of the River Ice Management (RIM) program, several ice-affected, navigable rivers were studied to find locations where ice problems occur on a regular basis. The rivers studied were the Illinois River and the Ohio River and its tributaries, especially the Allegheny and the Monongahela. Several problem areas were found at river bends, islands, and locks and dams and were generally caused by having too much broken ice in the ship track. One site had a serious frazil ice problem. Ice control structures such as ice booms and deflector booms were investigated for use at certain locations. The report includes a list of 64 ice problem sites, 5 locks and dams that could benefit from ice control structures, and 3 proven structures that are technically applicable. Keywords: Booms equipment, Locks waterways, Allegheny River, Monongahela River, River navigation, Winter navigation. (edc).
