Case of Sunken Borqe

A Fairfax County woman
rowing against q strong bu-
reaucratic tide, today inchet
ahead In efforts to have q
sunken municipal barge re-
moved from her waterfront
property.
The barge, once used by the
Districts prison system, lies
submerged in Occoquan Greek
No one seemed sure how 1t got
there or who should get rid Of
1t.
The Commissioners were told
today that the vessel was sunk
in front Of property now owned
by Mrs. H. F.. Jennings. Mrs,
Jennings has fired several vol
leys Of requests to District Gov
eminent and Corps Of Engi-
neers officials asking that 1t be
removed.
The answer from the Corps
of Engineers was that the files
fail to disclose any informa-
ton as to the placement Of
the barge in front Of Mrs.
Jennings property" The corps
said It had no objection II
someone wanted to remove the
barge.
Evening star., 1962-05-03

Donald Clemmer, head of the
Districts Department Of Cor.
rections. said research on the
subject has been inconclusive
The best judgment. he said, ID
that:
Sometime during the early
l930s, when the Corps Of Engi-
neers was attempting to change
the direction Of the channel Of
OccoQuan Greek, and knowing
that we had an unusable barge,
requested officials now LONG
gone to sink the barge In the
place where It still rests as q
rip-rap sort Of obstacle to help
control the river channel"
Summing up his position in
a letter to the Commissioners,
Mr.. Clemmer said:
"In other words. it is con-
tended that the barge was put
where 1t is for the convenience
Of others. Consequently, we
feel no responsibility now to
undertake the work Of remov-
ing IT,"
The Commissioners today
shipped the barge problem to
the corporation counsel's office.
