Open the Flood Gates         
These flood gates are designed to keep the tracks open to Muscatine shippers in case of flooding over the tracks - one of the main shippers there is Muscatine Power & Light who receives coal at their power plant - the shippers in Muscatine are all south of the gates - north of the gates, there is no levy.
