Northwest Locks
 
 

Locations:
Bonneville, The Dallas, John Day and McNary dams on the Columbia River; Ice Harbor, Lower Monumental, Little Goose, and Lower Granite dams on the Snake River; Willamette Falls Locks on the Willamette River at West Linn.

Signals: (SUBJECT TO CHANGE)

Call VHF Ch. 14 at least 30 minutes before expected time of arrival so lockmaster can have the locks ready.

Boats not equipped with FM radios use pull-cord signals or intercom stations located near ends of downstream and upstream entrance walls to contact control room. There will be no movement in or out on red light. A green light will come on when the lock is ready and lockmaster will sound one long blast on the air horn to signal vessels to enter in the order in which they arrived, except that government and commercial vessels and rafts have precedence over pleasure craft.

When the lock is ready for exit of boats the lockmaster will sound one short blast on the air horn.

Telephone Willamette Falls Lock at 656.3381 to inform lockmaster of ETA.
