A dredging project mainly geared to freeing up storage capacity for Lake Lanier is mostly finished at Lula Park in northeast Hall. The boat ramp used most by the public at the park “is back open with the channel being dug there from the end of the boat ramp to the end of the main (Chattahoochee) river channel,” said Chief Ranger Craig Sowers of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The corps contracted with River Sand Inc. of Cleveland to remove 3,000 tons of sediment from the waters around the ramp.
