There is a dead deer in the lock chamber between Lock 35E and Lock 36E. Contractors have been notified and will be in attendance Tuesday 2nd Sept or Wednesday 3rd Sept to remove the deer. There is very little boat movement in this section, so there will be little disruption to crafts. The What3Words for its exact location is : ///rollover.scariest.probable
