Saginaw River Passages - November 3rd & 4th


Olive L. Moore - Lewis J. Kuber arrived on the river on Wednesday, calling on the Bay Aggregates dock in Bay City to unload. The Luedtke tug, Ann Marie, arrived on the Saginaw with dredging equipment on Wednesday also. Thursday saw the arrival of Calumet, with a split load for the Bay City and Saginaw Wirt Stone docks. She was outbound Thursday evening. Algorail was also inbound, calling on the GM dock in Saginaw. Thursday also saw a very interesting arrival in the tug Evans McKeil and cement barge Metis, calling on the Essroc dock in Essexville. Essroc is normally serviced by Canada Steamship Lines vessels delivering clinker. A new cement powder unloading system was installed at Essroc over the summer and the McKeil-Metis delivery was the first for this new unloading point.
