Army Corps of Engineers and Waterfront Partnership of Baltimore work toward a cleaner Baltimore Harbor
The Reynolds is a steel debris vessel named after John Reynolds, a former Chief of Operations for the Baltimore District, Corps of Engineers. The Reynolds patrols the waters of the Baltimore Harbor and Patapsco River. Debris Removal vessels are equipped with a hydraulic front end loader with a mesh basket. These loaders have been designed so that they can pick debris directly out of the water and are controlled by the vessel operator. In support of the Clean Energy Initiative, our vessels run on B-99 bio-diesel. (U.S. Army photo by Cynthia Mitchell). Original public domain image from Flickr
