6/26 - Tug A. L. Killaly breaking ice at the mouth of  the Moira River in Belleville Ontario.  - Ted Shepherd
The Moira river feeds into the Bay of Quinte and typically sees heavy frazzle ice buildup in the channel. Efforts to remove this ice during the peak of the cold winter months has created some challenges for the public works department of the city. Many methods have been used to remove this buildup such as backhoes and blasting but these were becoming increasingly expensive and involved considerable cost to the city. The tug has so far done an excellent job in keeping the buildup under control, at considerably less cost than all previous methods used. The history of this tug is unknown, any information would be helpful, please post to the Search page
