Mitchell Lock is the second navigation structure proposed for the development of navigation in the Coosa River waterway. The 84- by 600-ft lock will be located at Mitchell Dam and powerhouse about 37.3 miles upstream of the mouth of the Coosa River near Verbena, Alabama. A fixed-bed model reproducing about 4 miles of the Coosa River and adjacent overbank areas to an undistorted scale of 1:120 was used to provide some general information on navigation conditions with the proposed designs to develop such modifications as might be required to eliminate conditions that would adversely affect navigation.
