The Oklahoma Department of Transportation says it is keeping a watchful eye on a logjam in the Neosho River.

 The large logjam was caused by downed tree, brush and debris that swept into the river after last weekend's heavy rainfall. The debris in the river has backed up next a bridge on US-60 near Wyandotte. Residents of Miami, who are upstream from the logjam are concerned about flooding. Miami Mayor Bless Parker says area residents should contact their state legislators and demand the Grand River Dam Authority be held accountable.

Miami residents won a major legal victory against G-R-D-A in January when the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission found a G-R-D-A responsible for flooding in the Miami area. Parker says the state needs to step in.

ODOT says they have no immediate concern for the structural integrity of the bridge. Authorities say that most of the debris is on the surface of the water, which allows water to continue to flow downstream. This is an important consideration to prevent upstream flooding.
