Boater safety during dredging

BROWN COUNTY - With the wonderful Memorial Day weather many people will be out enjoying the water.

Those helping clean up the Fox River in Brown County are urging boaters to use caution.

Dredging is going on 24 hours a day between Ashwaubenon and Allouez.

However, officials say there won't be any work this Sunday or Monday for Memorial Day.

Still, they say there will be a lot of equipment and machinery in the water.

"Similar to road construction when you see the orange barrels you are suppose to slow down when you see the warning signs and danger pipeline signs out in the river we urge you to slow down there as well,” said Paul Olander, J.F. Brennan Dredging.

After this weekend, Olander says that crews will be working some Saturdays.
