Murray, KY – The US Army Corps of Engineers is identifying places where the Mississippi River tried to change course during this spring's floods. From northwest Tennessee to Louisiana, the Mississippi tried to cut through river bends and remove parts from islands during the historic flood. Authorities say the river washed out riverbanks, undermined some levees and buckled the concrete revetment installed by the Corps to hold banks in place. Corps officials estimate it will cost just over $222 million to undo the damage inflicted by the river this year.
