I talked to the bridge tender of the Ogden Street Bridge in Menominee/Marinette this morning. He said they were out in the bay of Green Bay juggling ballast trying to get her straightened out before entering port. The K&K East Dock is a "deep draft dock" where the pulp ships off-load part of their cargo before moving up to the (shallower draft) West Dock to finish unloading. The reason for the switch is that it is much more efficient to unload the ships at the West Dock. However, I have noticed some of the other Wagenborg ships showing a port list at the East Dock; but this is the first time (that I know of) where one has arrived with a port list. - Dick Lund
