Unified Command divers were active yesterday near the location of the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse, as revealed in a video released today. The divers' primary task is to conduct surveys beneath the water's surface to provide crucial information on the underwater wreckage to the Unified Command.
The Unified Command is a collaborative effort involving the US Coast Guard, US Army Corps of Engineers, Maryland Department of Environment, Maryland Transportation Authority, emergency management company Witt O'Brien’s, and Maryland State Police.
Yesterday, the US Army Corps of Engineers made a significant announcement, stating their goal to fully reopen the channel leading to the Baltimore port by the end of May. This update is particularly noteworthy as the disaster had previously halted vessel traffic, dealing a severe blow to a port that plays a critical role in both local and national economies.
