They had to raise the boom of the crane to clear the downstream gate. I didn't notice that until near the end of the video when we can see them lower the boom back down. I can tell this is upstream lock of the four locks in Appleton because of the building near the downstream gate and the spillway.

At first, I wondered why it was a big deal to see a barge in a lock. Then, when I learned Appleton was on the Fox River, I understood why this is a rare site. This waterway is normally used only by recreational boats.
