Yesterday there was a Flood Response Plan with Emergency Command briefing held at the Port Huron City Building. It was a joint meeting with Port Huron and Fort Gratiot Township. During the meeting there was authorization for ice breaking operations to begin along the Black River to the 10th St Bridge. Due to construction, they are unable to break past the bridge. The plan is to deploy pallets of sandbags throughout the canal neighborhood in the unlikely circumstance they are needed. In the continue efforts to monitoring ice conditions along the river and water levels – up river in Jeddo a water level monitoring station has been placed there. The water level is roughly at 9.8ft heading to 17ft tomorrow around 2pm. It could take 20 hours for that water to reach the City of Port Huron.
