APPENDIX 6 FLOATING PLANT A large amount of government owned floating plant is used by the Corps of Engineers in the river and harbor work. For many years a "Floating Plant Report" was included in the Annual Report of the Chief of Engineers. The last one published appeared in the report for 1920 and covered the calendar year 1919. The report, which extended over four hundred pages, gave lists of floating plant by class and by districts, and detailed information concerning the operations of each class. It also included information regarding the dredging operations done under contract. The following is a list of the dredges owned by the government and operated by the Corps of Engineers on river and harbor work during the fiscal year 1922:1 1 Hearing before the Subcommittee of House Committee on appropriations in charge of War Department Appropriation Bill for 1923, Part 2, P. 246. |
