It was actually the Mississippi River.
Army Corps officials have already blasted a Mississippi River levee in Missouri to lower the river from record levels that have caused flooding or the threat of flooding in Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky.
By lowering the flow of water over dams in the Pittsburgh area, the corps is hoping to lower the Ohio River and prevent flooding downstream from where it flows into the Mississippi.
Lowering the flow of water will raise the level of Pittsburgh's rivers, which could close or restrict recreation in some of the reservoir pools created by the Army Corps' system of locks and dams.
