Earth moving equipment Wednesday pushes up the earthen walls of a dredge material relocation area (DMRA) being built along West Bank Road. The DMRA will hold sediment from Coldwater Creek and other areas. The creek will be dredged starting in mid to late April, with completion expected in one to two years. Free firewood from clearing trees for the DMRA is still available to the public, said Grand Lake St. Marys State Park Interim Park Manager Brian Miller.
