🔍 Key Concepts

• Old River Control Structure regulations on speed limits for upbound vs. downbound traffic • Special tow size limits (length and width) when passing the inflow channel • Meaning of left descending bank on the Mississippi River

💭 Think About

• First, decide whether this question is about speed limits or tow dimensions at the inflow channel—what does the regulation emphasize most here? • For the options about tow size, think about why the inflow channel might require stricter limits on either length or width—what hazard does each dimension create in a narrow, controlled channel? • For the option about the left descending bank, ask yourself: does the regulation actually tell you to favor one bank here, or is it more concerned with how you pass through the designated channel itself?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check the specific mph values in the regulation for both upbound and downbound traffic at Old River—do they match option A exactly? • Verify the maximum tow length and maximum tow width allowed when passing the inflow channel—compare each number carefully with options C and D. • Confirm whether any rule actually directs you to run close to the left descending bank, or if that sounds like a distractor not supported by regulation.
