																	operators 
																	have faced 
																	challenges 
																	for months 
																	on the 
																	drought-plagued 
																	river, 
																	including 
																	increasingly 
																	shallower 
																	water and a 
																	17-hour 
																	shutdown 
																	Tuesday 
																	of a damaged 
																	lock upriver 
																	near Granite 
																	City.
