Perdido River Flooding Subsides, Logs Left Behind
January 3, 2016
Flooding along the Perdido River at Barrineau Park has subsided, but a large log jam against the bridge was left behind. These photos were taken Saturday afternoon from the Barrineau Park Road Bridge on the Florida/Alabama state line. NorthEscambia.com photos, click to enlarge.

River Resources has this bridge in its plan and has cleared the way with the RR to go after the logs. This has been in the works a long time but permits and license requirements for river work were delayed until just before the last big rain. If all goes well, this licensed and permitted company will begin pulling this jam out of the river this week. http://www.riverloggers.com .
One of the most difficult things to get done is work on any of the rivers in our region because of numerous federal state and local requirements and dozens of agencies or departments or landing rights and so much more. River Resources has done its homework — although it was very very time consuming.
Natures way of cleaning up. Build a bridge block her path. Build in woods lighting burns her under growth. Build on the coast near beaches she decided to rearrange her house ,,You loose either way she will
Not stop cleaning her home ,,
Before the Barrineaus banned everyone from going down there, we used to pull logs out with the winches on our trucks n cut em with chainsaws. Still keep a chainsaw on the boat when riding Perdido to clear a path for tubers & canoers.
You should see the size of those Beavers.
The logs jammed at the river is not something new. They have been there for several months, even before Thanksgiving. 40 ft logs are pinned against the bridge, without the ability to break free.
Which state would be responsible of clearing this debris?
