PRAIRIE DU CHIEN, Wis. — The Army Corps, which runs Upper Mississippi River navigation, plans a wildlife rehabilitation project on 200-acre McGregor Lake behind its Guttenberg, Iowa, dam. The project would slow sand build-up in shipping channels. A display of the plan has been set up at the Prairie du Chien library on Friday from 5 to 7 p.m. The project, the Corps noted, would improve lake habitat for backwater fish species, increase vegetation growth, and improve the species diversity of the floodplain forest.
