Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Monongahela Navigation Company The earliest known suggestion of an improvement of the naviga tion of the Monongahela by locks and dams, was in a report of a survey made for the State by E. F. Gay, Civil Engineer, in 1828. It was unheeded, and nothing further done until 1832, when the late Hon. Andrew Stewart, of Fayette, made an effort in the Con gress of the United States to have it done by the National Govern ment, as an extension, under the Act of of the improvement of the navigation of the Ohio, to the National Road at Browns ville Congress provided for a survey of the river to Brownsville, which was made in 1833, by Dr. William Howard, U. S Civil Engineer. His plan was locks and low dams - eight in number of4l21 feet lift, except that No. I would be 6 feet; the object being to use them only when the river was low. A public meeting at Waynesburg, Greene county, November 18, I835, recommended and urged the Improvement by the State, as Congress had declined it. The movement was at once seconded by the citizens of Pitts burgh and Brownsville and intermediate places, and legislation was sought and obtained. The Monongahela Navigation Company was authorized by Act of Assembly of March 31, 1836. It was to make a slack water navigation from Pittsburgh to the Virginia State line, and as much further as Virginia would allow it to go. The stock was to be in shares of $50, and as much more as needed. The height of the dams was not to exceed 4% feet, supposed to mean from pool to pool.
