	McClellan-Kerr Navigation System
		General Description and Characteristics: The McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System (MKARNS) is one of the more recent additions to the inland navigable waterway systems, having been completed in 1968.
		Location and Navigable Mileage: The downstream end of the MKARNS is actually at the confluence of the White and Mississippi Rivers.
		Additionally, the White River is navigable upstream for a quite some distance (we believe to Newport, Arkansas, about 245 miles), but our research did not reveal any details of this waterway, and the COE navigation charts appear to be out of print.
