It takes a huge effort to oversee the Burnsville Lake project, but Resource Manager Richard Pingley wouldn't have it any other way. He takes great pride in this central West Virginia project so highly regarded for its well-maintained camping facilities, abundant water-based recreation, and its Bulltown Historic Area - the site of a famous Civil War battle listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

  • The Kids and Badges event was held in Circleville Ohio on September 10th 2016. Deer Creek Ranger Will Rutter, SCA Intern Nic Reisch, and Dillon Lake Park Ranger Bob Cifranic worked the event and made over 900 water safety contacts utilizing Corey, Bobber and Deer Creek Lake's water safety trailer.
  • Congratulations to the USACE Leadership Development Program II graduates who were honored at a ceremony at Mountwest Community and Technical College on Sept. 13, 2016. They took part in a year-long training program that prepares them for future leadership roles.
  • The Greenup Locks and Dam, located on the Ohio River at Greenup, Kentucky, is one of the busiest locks in the Huntington District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. But maintenance work closed the main lock chamber since April 15, 2016, while crews removed -- and replaced - the massive miter gates at the downriver end of the lock. That can affect industry, causing barge traffic to slow down on the Ohio River -- and it brought a visit from Congressional representatives from three states -- Bill Johnson from Ohio's 6th District and Evan Jenkins from West Virginia's Third District as well as staff members from Senator Mitch McConnell's and Congressman Hal Rogers' of Kentucky offices.
