NOTE: N/A = not applicable; mon = monumental; rehab = rehabilitation; USACE = U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

a Dates are based on publicly available records that occasionally conflict with one another. There may also be discrepancies due to different dates for when the work was substantially complete and when it was officially closed out in the government accounting records. Locks with “none” did not appear in a search of public records. The lack of a rehabilitation project for the lock has not been confirmed by USACE.

b As of 2014.

c Another rehabilitation is under way.
