Location. Has its source in Connecticut Lake in northern New Hampshire, flows southerly 380 miles and empties into Long Island Sound at Saybrook, Conn., 14 miles west of New London. Hartford, now head of commercial navigation, is 52 statute miles, by channel, from mouth. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 215, 266, 267.) Previous project. For details see page 1754, Annual Report for 1915 and page 120, Annual Report for 1938. RIVERS AND HARBORS--NEW ENGLAND DIVISION 17 Eightmile River, Conn., elimination as separate project: Pro- Vides for a channel 8 feet deep and 75 feet wide from deep water in Connecticut River to Hamburg and for turning basin of same depth, 150 feet wide, approximately 300 feet long at Hamburg. Project was adopted by River and Harbor Act of 1910. Costs and expenditures were $9,000 all for new work. In accordance With River and Harbor Act of 1950, project for Connecticut River below Hartford was modified to include project for Eightmile River, which was eliminated as a separate project. Aforemen- tioned act also provided for an anchorage basin 6 feet deep and about 6.5 acres in area in upper cove at Hamburg. Existing project. A channel 15 feet deep at mean low water, 300 feet wide from mouth to Lyme Railroad bridge, about 3.4 miles, and thence 150 feet wide to Hartford, a total distance of 52 miles, channel obtained by dredging and construction of dikes, training Walls, revetments, and accessory works; two riprap stone jetties at mouth of river, tops to be 5 feet above high water and 6 feet Wide, easterly one about 2,300 feet and westerly about 2,750 feet long; for a training dike about 3,700 feet long at Hartford, and for anchorage 11 feet deep about 12 acres, and one, 6 feet deep about 17 acres, in North Cove, Old Saybrook, with an entrance channel 11 feet deep and 100 feet wide; for a channel 8 feet deep, 75 feet wide about 1.5 miles long from Connecticut River to Ham- burg; a turning basin of same depth 150 feet wide and 300 feet long at Hamburg; in Essex Cove-channel 10 feet deep, generally 100 feet wide and about 4,400 feet long from existing 15-foot Essex Shoal Channel off Essex Reef to and northward along Essex waterfront, then to existing 15-foot channel near northern end of Essex Shoal, anchorage of about 15 acres 10 feet deep in southern Part of area bounded by 10- and 15-foot channels, and anchorage of about 19 acres 8 feet deep in northern part of area bounded by 10- and 15-foot channels; in Wethersfield Cove-channel at entrance 6 feet deep, generally 60 feet wide, and 30-acre anchorage 6 feet deep. Mean tidal range is 3.5 feet at mouth, and at summer stage 18 about 1 foot at Hartford. Maximum tidal range at mouth due to Wind or other causes, is 8 feet or more. At Hartford usual rise due to spring freshets is between 16 and 24 feet above mean low Water. Maximum recorded freshet at Hartford (Mar. 1936) was 35.5 feet above mean low water. Below Middletown the height of crest of freshet decreases rapidly. Total cost of new work for completed project is $1,384,221, of Which $130,410 is non-Federal. Dredging 6-foot channel, turning basin, and anchorage area at Hamburg to 6 feet deep, about 6.5 acres in area in Eightmile River portion of project is con- Sidered inactive and excluded from foregoing estimate. Estimated Federal cost of this portion (1956) is $57,000. Major rehabilita- tion will be required for five bank revetments on Connecticut River below Hartford, Conn., from Glastonbury Upper Bar, mile 42 to Claybanks Upper Bar, mile 49.

SCHEDULING FLOOD CONTROL RESERVOIR OPERATIONS sA e oordinated system of flood control reservoirs was estab- lished in each of the five major flood producing basins in New r gland Division. During periods of floodflows regulation of i servoirs is fully coordinated within each basin dependent upon its ocation in the basin, its storage capacity and origin of flood. egulation within each basin during the fiscal year was as follows: Blackston e River Basin: The West Hill Reservoir was regulated useday 1 9 67 and about 20 percent of the flood control storage was A Connecticut River Basin: All 12 reservoirs were regulated in April 1967 with storage used ranging from 8 percent at Birch 1ill, Tully and Barre Falls up to 29 percent at Townshend and iorth Springfield. Five reservoirs were regulated With storage used ranging from 7 percent at Birchin May 1967 Hill, Otter 'rook and Barre Falls up to 20 percent at Surry Mountain and Ilousatonic River Basin: No significant regulation was required. Merrimack River Basin: All four reservoirs were April 1967 and 9 to 16 percent of flood control storage regulated in was utilized. laTheames River Basin: All six flood control reservoirs were regu- ted in May 1967 and 10 to 16 percent of flood control storage Wa'8 Used.

(a) General: Fiscal year 1967 was a year of ex- tea'ls. Inflow to Lake Okeechobee in the first 4 months totaled 1eY 2 million acre-feet, equivalent to over 4 feet of storage on 462 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 196 7 the lake. Stages rose above schedule in all regulated areas a Yearl 0 in the year requiring regulatory releases to prevent levels fall exceeding safe limits. Beginning in November, however, raleed, was about 20 percent of normal for that month and the suc.ect ing 5-6 months and deficiencies in water supply to the pr'0o e area began to accumulate. These continued throughout the te .into May. Stages dropped gradually on Lake Okeechobee .ami three water conservation areas from peaks in October to mn outlh values in May. Drought conditions were prevalent over uh Florida in March, April, and May. Heavy torrential rai l 5 June, up to 30 percent of total annual normals, occurred at elan stations along the lower east coast. Nearly a foot of rain fell ver the three water conservation areas in June, with 8.6 inches aerve age over Lake Okeechobee. Pumping at S-8 in July, to rer3 heavy rains from the agricultural area, raised stages in 0 ba t creating a problem for the deer herd in the northern part o tree area., Releases of excess water to the east coast from all erof conservation areas with deliberate reduction in the transeri excess storage between conservation areas assisted in lowenni levels to near normal in the problem area in August. (b) By Corps of Engineers: (1) Lake Okeechobee: Asnoalted above, water supply to the lake of nearly 250 percent of nor feet July, August, and September raised stages to a peak of 15.LWere on 27 October. Regulatory releases of 1,367,330 acre-feetL.P made through St. Lucie Canal and Caloosahatchee River. Co ing from the lake by the Central and Southern Florida Flood f tb trol District to assist in lake regulation was limited because o the necessity to remove heavy rains on the agricultural areas an bove fact that all three water conservation areas were also well ater schedule. In sharp contrast to the early part of the yearv laM, supply to the lake for the 7-month period, November througn11 et was only 54 percent of the annual normal. The total annua.ll, water supply was 1,639,000 acre-feet, some 118 percent of nolle, in spite of this prolonged deficiency. Annual rainfall on the eof 54.8 inches, was 7.4 inches below normal. A minimum stag61, 11.7 feet, or 1.8 feet below schedule, was reached on June 2, 1 feet following an 8-month recession. Approximately 800,000 acre ect were supplied from Lake Okeechobee to maintain stages in P.rothe canals and supply irrigation water to over 400,000 acres.1 agricultural area; most of that amount was supplied during'"i& te recession period. (2) Water Conservation Area No. 1 gener&l, followed the regulation schedule from September through I drc after an above-normal July and August. The peak stage rea h d was 17.2 feet on 27 October; the lowest stage was 10.9 feet onve May during the spring drought. Rainfall over the area was a 52.6 normal in 5 months and below normal in 7 months, totaling& al inches for the year. That value was 3.9 inches below nor annual rainfall. Water supply to the area was deficient in 7 cOX secutive months, November through May. The total deficiencY i, that period was 180,000 acre-feet. Regulatory releases were r quired in the first 5 months and in January and April to returt the pool to schedule.

MANIECE BAYOU, ARK. ,ocation. Maniece Bayou drainage area of 88 square miles is 51 left bank of Red River in Lafayette County, Ark., from 3 to M~iles wide, about 25 miles long, and roughly parallels Red River. mlanlece Bayou enters Red River at mile 366.5 (1950-51 mileage). 4"aniece Bayou, below mile 5, flows through a deteriorated bed of 1n ancient Red River meander, characterized by a typical alluvial .dge on each side of the stream. Main line Red River levee ties I to right bank ridge at about mile 3.6. At this point channel lies a olg base of escarpment. Above mile 8 the bayou is poorly defined q .traverses a low swamp area. Inadequate outlet capacity of ialece Bayou results in impoundment in swamp for extended aeriods during rainy season with resulting impairment of drain- lae on surrounding improved lands and periodic overflow of these s during moderate storms. eAx 'isting project. Diversion of Maniece Bayou through enlarged existing channels and land cuts to enter Red River at mile 362.3, r snagging and clearing existing channel between Red River and ile 0.47, and channel enlargement and realinement between mile 7 and 8. This plan was modified to include enlargement and .'4alinement of Maniece and Field Bayous below mile 22.7, includ- b further channel enlargement of Maniece Bayou below mile 8 eyond that already authorized, provides for a low water dam bear end of existing left-bank Red River levee, extension of levee Sa spoil bank for 3.5 miles to mouth of Maniece Bayou, and con- cruction of an appurtenant interceptor drainage ditch.

Local cooperation. None required. Terminal facilities. Considered adequate for existing commerce Operations and results during fiscal year. Regulating works: Contract work consisted of $1,035,920 for stone dike construction, and $451,290 for revetment. Hired labor costs were $91,466 for engineering and design, and $71,612 for supervision and adminis- tration. Chain of Rocks: Contract work consisted of $37,842 for culvert bulkheads, $10,378 for raising west wall of auxiliary lock, $24,910 for tie down of lower sill of main lock. Hired labor costs were $58,769 for engineering and design, $11,766 for supervision and administration, $5,959 for maintenance during construction, and $122 for surveys and layouts. Dam 27: $51 for design of warning sign. Maintenance: Work consisted of $1,855,584 for 32,540 feet of dike repair and 28,734 feet of revetment repairs. U.S. plant and hired labor performed channel dredging at 69 localities, removing 5,811,569 cubic yards of material from main channel at a cost of $1,139,766. Channels dredged had a combined length of 27.6 miles, an average width of 300 feet and an average gain in depth of 3.5 feet. Other costs were $319,598 for condition and operation stud- ies; $224,919 for operation and care of Lock No. 27; Dam No. 27, and Chain of Rocks Canal; $589 for recreational planning; $148,d 323 for maintenance of Lock No. 27; $31,701 for engineering and design; $357,661 for supervision and administration; and minus $530 for collections for damages to Government structures. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction on existing project began in 1881 and project has been in beneficial use practically from its inception. Work on the project is about 84 percent com plete. Work required to complete the project includes construction of 80,000 linear feet of dikes; 35,000 linear feet of revetment; removal of 100,000 cubic yards of rock; removal of 100,000 cubic yards by dredging; upper and lower guidewalls at Lock No. 27; and alterations to sills. Channel as a whole has been greatly in- proved by the work completed to date. Dredging is required at low stages to remove temporary shoals and maintain required channel depths. Navigation season formerly extended from mid- February to mid-December, the river generally closed by ice remainder of year. However, in recent years increased demands of commerce and use of steel hull boats have combined to extend navigation season throughout the year except when blocked bY heavy ice or gorges. River is generally above 10-foot stage, St. Louis gage, from latter part of February to latter part of August, during which time project channel depths generally prevail with- FLOOD CONTROL-ST.

The channel extends in a south- Westerly direction from the Port Aransas-Corpus Christi Water- W0 opposite McGloins Bluff, to the western shore of Corpus a isti Bay at Encinal Peninsula, a distance of 8.7 miles, including a d rning basin 2,000 feet square. For the entrance from the Gulf Ai channel to the turn-off point, see "Location" under the Port ransas-Corpus Christi Waterway, Texas. 2 0 Nxisting project. Provides for a channel 30 feet deep and dee feet wide and for a turning basin at the southwest end, 30 feet deeP and 2,000 feet square. Under ordinary conditions the mean ab range at Encinal Peninsula is about 1 foot, and the extreme 4tout 11/2 feet. The height of tides is dependent largely on the thrength and direction of winds. During strong north winds in ae winter season, the water surface may be depressed as much h3 feet below mean low tide. Existing project was authorized by the 1940 River and Harbor Act.

Project also provides for two stone jetties at Sabine Pass en- trance from the gulf, western jetty to be 21,905 feet long and eastern jetty 25,310 feet long. Project further provides for re- moval of guard lock in Sabine-Neches Canal, construction of suit- able permanent protective works along Sabine Lake frontage owned by city of Port Arthur to prevent dredged material fro entering Sabine Lake and to prevent erosion of material depositedt reconstruction of Port Arthur Bridge, and relocation of Port Ar- thur field office. Mean tidal variation at entrance is about 1/st feet, at Port Arthur about 1 foot, and at Orange and Beaumont about five-tenths foot. Prolonged north winds during winter sea- son have depressed water surface as much as 3.4 feet below mean low tide while tropical disturbances have caused heights as much as 8 feet above mean low tide. Estimated cost for new work is: Federal (Corps) $52,307,200 excluding expenditures on previoUS projects; and non-Federal $5,740,800, including $1,345,500 con- tributed funds, $32,000 value of useful work performed, and $319, 000 value of expired service life of old bascule highway bridge at Port Arthur, Tex.; $1,714,800 lands and $2,329,500 relocations.

The project provides 11 reser° voirs, 11 local protection projects, and a multiple-purpose channel for navigation, flood control, recreation, and fish and wildlife conservation purposes extending from Fort Worth generallY along the course of the Trinity River to its connection with the Houston Ship Channel in Galveston Bay, a total length of about 370 miles of improved channel. The channel would provide a na0l gable waterway with minimum dimensions of 12 feet deep and 150 feet wide. Spur channels and turning basins 400 feet square would be provided at Dallas and Fort Worth. The channel would have 17 gated navigation dams and one overflow navigation dam. There would be 19 locks below Dallas, each having clear chamber dimrent sions of 84 feet by 600 feet, and 4 locks between Dallas and Fort Worth, each having clear chamber dimensions of 56 feet bY 400 feet. The project includes the existing Federal projects designated as "Anahuac Channel, Texas," and "Mouth of Trinity River, Texas." Tidal range in the channel below Wallisville dam is frol 0.6 feet to 1.2 feet.

DODGE CITY LOCAL PROTECTION PROJECT, KANS. Location. At Dodge City, Ford County, Kans., on Arkansa River about 130 miles downstream from Colorado-Kansas tatle line. (See Geological Survey map for Dodge quadrangle, scale 1:125,000.) et Existing project. About 7 miles of levees of about 8.3 fee average height on both banks of Arkansas River (4.3 miles on left bank and 2.6 miles on right bank) and enlargement of river cha" nel to form a floodway about 470 feet wide which will convey a flow of 40,000 cubic feet per second through city. Levees will be protected by flexible-type steel jetties. Four reaches of lood- walls about 100 feet long will be provided to insure continuity be- tween levees and bridge abutments. Project also includes relocal tion of a railroad bridge and grade raise. Appurtenant worV$ include interior drainage structures and fencing, a pumping plant for disposal of sanitary sewage during high water periods, an3 minor alterations to local roads and a sanitary sewerline. As result of the very damaging flood of June 1965 on the Arkansas River, which peaked at about 82,000 cfs at Dodge CitY, consideration is being given to modification of project design to increase protection to maximum extent practicable without caUS ing substantial increase in Federal and non-Federal costs. plan being considered is based on a design flow of 40,000 cfs with the added requirement that top of levees would not be lower than the profile for 60,000 cfs. Revised frequency curves prepared since 1965 flood indicate 40,000 cfs flow would occur about once in 63 years and 82,000 efs flow about once in 250 years. These fre- FLOOD CONTROL-ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT 733 quency curves also show that a 90-year frequency has a discharge bf about 48,000 cfs, and it has been determined such a flow could be.safely passed through the floodway as presently designed. The raise in top of levee to 60,000 cfs profile would increase carrying apacity of floodway, but under such a plan the bridges on Second btreet and 14th Avenue would not be raised. Sandbagging of the bridge crossings would be required during floods of that magni- tude. Estimated Federal cost is $3 million. Cost of lands and dam- ages is responsibility of local interests. Project was authorized by 1962 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 498, 87th Cong., 2d sess., con- alns latest published maps). . Local cooperation. In addition to usual requirements, local interests must acquire easement for flood-zoning purposes in areas that would be used for ponding of interior drainage waters and hold United States free from claims as a result of flooding from residual interior drainage during operation of project; alter exist- ing improvements, other than railroads, including provision of a Sewage disposal pumping plant; inform all individuals concerned about residual flooding problem involved owing to temporary Ponding; and provide assurances that encroachment on improved river channels, interior drains, and ponding areas will not be Permitted; and if ponding areas and capacities are impaired, pro- Vide substitute storage capacity or equivalent pumping capacity. A bond issue for flood control purposes 'in an amount not to ex- Ceed $700,000" was approved by the voters October 12, 1965. dormal assurances will be requested as soon as revised general design memorandum is approved. Estimated non-Federal cost is $7 00,000. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preconstruction Planning was continued. Revision of the general design memoran- dum was held in abeyance for several months pending outcome Of study of possible modification of project to provide a higher degree of protection. These studies were made as result of the une 1965 flood, which peaked at about 82,000 cfs at Dodge City and caused extensive damage. Modification of design is war- ranted because project authorization is based on a design flood of 40,000 cfs. Revision of general design memorandum was resumed late in fiscal year and is expected to be completed early in fiscal year 1968. Design is proceeding on basis of 40,000 cfs design flood with the added requirement that top of levees will not be lower than profile of 60,000 cfs flood. Condition at end of fiscal year.

EL PASO LOCAL PROTECTION PROJECT, TEX. Location. At El Paso, El Paso County, Tex., which is on left bank of Rio Grande in reach that forms part of international boundary between United States and Republic of Mexico. (Geo- logical Survey map for El Paso, Tex.; New Mexico quadrangle, scale 1:250,000.) Existing project. Consists of a single-purpose flood-control system of detention dams, diversion dikes, and channels to collect, regulate, and discharge arroyo runoff into Rio Grande. Runoff from tributary arroyos on eastern, southern and western slopes Of adjacent Franklin Mountains often inundates sections of city and its outlying suburban developments. Project is divided into four independent elements: Northwest area, Central area, and tVo units (Copper System and Bluff Channel) in Southeast area. Im- provements for Central area and Copper System of Southeast area are authorized for construction as soon as practicable, whereas construction of remainder of project (Northwest area and Bluff Channel of Southeast area) is deferred until construc- tion is initiated by International Boundary and Water ComilsL sion on improvements which may be required to increase capacity of Rio Grande and its floodway. Elements authorized for con- struction as soon as practicable consist of seven reservoirs plus diversion and outlet channels in Central area to operate in con- junction with existing facilities and two reservoirs together with diversions and an outfall channel in Copper System of South- east area. Deferred elements include three reservoirs and a diversion channel with appurtenances in Northwest area and Bluff Channel in Southeast area to intercept arroyo flows above area of principal damage and convey them to Rio Grande. Esti- mated Federal cost is $15,100,000. Project was authorized bY Flood Control Act of 1965 (H. Doc. 207, 89th Cong., 1st sess., contains latest published maps). Authorized plans of improvement as recommended in survey report for Northwest area and Southeast area (Bluff Channel) would change flow conditions in Rio Grande through reach which forms part of international boundary between United States and Mexico. Proposed flood-control project would collect and divert interior runoff which now ponds on valley floor and which would be discharged into this reach of river. Recommended plan was authorized subject to review and analysis of need for levee en- largement and channel improvement on Rio Grande by IB&WC. IB&WC has determined that it is not feasible to increase dis- charges into river as proposed in recommended plan and has stated that it would not serve best interests of United States to undertake necessary levee enlargement and channel improvements involved on Rio Grande. ,Instead, IB&WC recommends adoption of Plan B for the Northwest area as presented in survey report, which calls for four additional dams and minimum diversion chan- nel work but which would cost about $4,000,000 additional. Bound- ary Commission would justify this plan by supporting additional costs. For Southeast area it recommends Plan C as presented in survey report, which would substitute two dams for Bluff Chan- nel at no extra cost over authorized plan. FLOOD CONTROL-ALBUQUERQUE, N.

Flood Control Act of 1948 authorized flood rentrol phase of comprehensive plan of development of water Cesources of Rio Grande basin in New Mexico (II. Doc. 243, 81st 0og., 1st sess.) with exception of Chiflo Dam and Reservoir and sPwllway gate structure at Chamita Dam. Although recom- lended Chiflo Dam and Reservoir was deleted from authorized Plan, it was excluded without prejudice to future consideration by Congress. It was requested at that time, by States of Colorado and Texas, that project be deferred for restudy regarding re- uired storage and methods of operation. By same act, Congress as10 authorized for construction irrigation phase of comprehensive 8 1an s recommended by Bureau of Reclamation (H. Doc. 653, st Cong., 2d sess.). The act also stipulated that work should be grosecuted in accordance with joint agreement approved by Secretary of the Army and Acting Secretary of the Interior on oovember 21, 1957. In addition, under that agreement Bureau tiOfelamation was given responsibility for construction, opera- h on, and maintenance of channel rectification, and drainage re- habilitation and extension phases of unified plan of improvement. Authority for Chamita Dam and Reservoir was abrogated when Cochiti Dam and Reservoir was authorized.

Ordinary mainte- nance and operation continued. Regulation of flows by Abiquiu Reservoir was continued in accordance with procedures agreeable to the Rio Grande Compact Administration. On July 1, 1966, Pool elevation was 6,142.60 feet with corresponding storage1 of 24,493 acre-feet. Under agreement between the Corps and the Bureau of Reclamation, transfer of storage from El Vado Reser- Voir to Abiquiu Reservoir continued from fiscal year 1966 until December 10, 1966, when Abiquiu Reservoir became empty. Maxi- raum reservoir elevation of 6,143.60 feet (storage 25,388 acre- feet) occurred on August 3, 1966. On February 27, 1967 sedi- ment regulation began and continued to end of fiscal year. Pool elevation on June 30, 1967, was 6,093.92 feet and storage was 1,265 acre-feet. By letter dated May 10, 1966, the Rio Grande Compact Commissioners for Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas agreed on a method of operation for El Vado, Abiquiu, and Jemez Canyon Reservoirs during the 1967 runoff season. Approved method of operation follows: Water stored involuntarily for flood control or :for sediment Control in El Vado Reservoir, or Abiquiu Reservoir, or Jemez Canyon Reservoir shall be released to Rio Grande prior to Novem- ber 1, 1967 whenever natural flow at Otowi is 1,500 cfs or more Drovided that such releases are limited so as not to cause operation Of floodway below San Acacia. Except as otherwise provided therein, releases of water from any of aforesaid reservoirs will be carried out at times and rates established by appropriate legislation or as authorized by Rio Grande Compact Commission. 0, uring year an estimated $198,000 sediment damages were pre- vented, and accumulated sediment damages prevented by project since completion were $323,000.

In addition conservancy district must make arrangements for transfer of Model Land and rr:igation Co.'s storage rights from existing Model Reservoir to Tri idad Reservoir. Storage for recreation purposes not included suauthorized project plan; however, project document S1Ustantial benefits would be derived from such use and noted that that there i'as strong local support for such storage. Provision was made Ir Project plan for 4,500 acre-feet of permanent storage for re- creation; however, since flows of Purgatoire River are full ap- ropriated, water rights will have to be acquired by non-Federal interests. replacementEstimated cost of initial filling of pool is $250,000 and of evaporation losses will cost an estimated $21,400 per Year. Lands and facilities for recreation will be provided at Sederal expense, but cost of water rights will be borne by the ate of Colorado. Assurances of local cooperation received from City of Trinidad and Purgatoire River Water Conservancy District were formally accepted May 11, 1967, after execution of irrigation repayment Conrtract . Stipulated decree changing place of storage of water rights decreed to existing Model Reservoir from that reservoir to Proposed Trinidad Reservoir was conditionally approved by Las lmas County, Colo., District Court April 15, 1965, subject to Wimate execution and approval of irrigation repayment contract, hch qualifying condition is now removed. Purgatoire River prater Conservancy District, representing water users, signed CPrie irrigation repayment contract January 21, 1967.

Fiscal year cost was $2,364 Work on the report on the Kansas and Wakarusa Rivers in the vicinity of Lawrence, Kansas, included completion of valley seC- tions and bridge elevation, surveys and hydrology studies leading toward Standard Project, 100-year, and 50-year flood profiles. The study includes 2 minor tributaries to the Wakarusa River for which no historical data are available. Fiscal year cost for this area was $4,503. Work on the report on Shunganunga Creek at Topeka, Kansas was initiated in January 1967. The City of Topeka has done most of the required field surveying with their own forces. A base maP in manuscript form has been completed. Hydrology studies have been initiated. The flood plain information work is being co- ordinated with the outstanding review investigation entitled "Kansas River, Shunganunga Whatershed, Shawnee County, Ka n" sas." Fiscal year cost for this area was $6,351. Previously budgeted funds for the report on Marais des Cygnes River, 110-Mile Creek to State Line, were not made available due to the deemphasis of river reach reports in favor of urban area reports.

No obligation of Federal funds shall be incurred for cost of this project where flood control benefits are hclusively for local flood control, as determined by Secretary of the Army (except costs of planning, design, and acquisition of water rights), unless the State or one or more other non-Federal entities shall have entered into an agreement in advance to as- SUme at least 20 percent of cost (except costs of planning, design, and acquisition of water rights) of completed project allocated to production of local flood control benefits, payable either as Construction proceeds, or pursuant to a contract providing for repayment with interest within 50 years. Actual cost, or fair Inarket value of lands, easements, rights-of-way, and work per- formed or services rendered prior to completion or construction of Project, which are furnished by a non-Federal entity, shall be included in share of cost to be borne by non-Federal entity. Chief of Engineers considers that, in arriving at amount which local interests should contribute to meet 20-percent requirement, they should be credited with estimated value at time of Federal construction, of work which they have performed since project Plan was presented to and accepted by local interests, and which Will contribute directly to production of local flood control benefits related to project. Local interests must also operate and main- tain project after construction. On October 26, 1961, a meeting w as held by local interests to initiate formation of Lower Vermil- lion atershed District as legal entity to furnish local cooperation for project. A court order in April 1964 declared a deficiency in the etition to organize the district which required a new start in tho organizational procedures.

COLLECTION AND STUDY OF BASIC DATA Volumes I and II of the scheduled nine volume series for Streams in the Denver, Colorado, area were released to local in- terests in 1964. Volume III of this series was presented to the Sponsor on 6 April 1966. Studies for Volume IV were continued udring the fiscal year. Local officials stated after the major flood u 1965 that data contained in Volumes I and II were utilized June in determining the areas to be evacuated. Fiscal year cost of the 0 elver area studies was $14,755. th Volumes I and II of the scheduled four volumes for streams in the Lincoln, Nebraska area was released to local people in March 1965 and February 1967 respectively. Volume III was being re- viewed by MRD at the end of the fiscal year. Deletion of emphasis for flood plain reports in rural areas has changed the scope of Volume IV to data readily available from other studies. Fiscal Year cost of the Lincoln area studies was $14,053. Volume I of the scheduled three volumes for streams in the Omaha, Nebraska area was nearly ready for MRD review at the end of the fiscal year. Some survey information for the additional Volumes was received late in the fiscal year. Fiscal year cost of the Papillion Creek studies was $13,500.

OPEN-CHANNEL WORK, OHIO RIVER Under jurisdiction of district engineer in whose district the work is located. For information as to limits of the three dis tricts on Ohio River, see page 899. Portion of river included in project extends 974.7 miles from head of river at Pittsburgh, Pa., to mouth of Cache River (Mound City, Ill.). Open-channel im1p provement from mouth of Cache River to mouth of Ohio River iS under jurisdiction of Mississippi River Commission. Existing: project. Before completion of canalization project no project depth had been fixed by Congress under project for open-channel work, but in order to properly aid packet and barge navigation it was necessary to secure a low-water channel with a minimum depth of from 4 to 6 feet, and a width, depending upon difficulty of running channel, of from 400 to 600 feet; also to permit movement of large coal tows, which movement occurred at stages of water exceeding 10 feet, it was necessary to remove points of projecting bars which formed at various locations along river. Accomplishment of this purpose involved concentration of current by closing back. channels at islands with low dalmS, contraction and straightening wide, open channels by low dikes, dredging bars and shoals, and removal of snags and wreckS* Incidental to direct improvement of Ohio River is constructio and maintenance of ice piers as required for protection of river craft. Stage of extreme high water on Ohio River varies from246 feet at Pittsburgh, Pa., to 80 feet at Cincinnati, Ohio, with 57 , feet at Louisville, Ky. (head of falls), 53.8 feet at Evansville, Ind' and 59.5 feet at Cairo, Ill. (mouth of river). Estimated cost o0 new work (1960) is $16,160,000, exclusive of following items5 which are considered inactive: Ice piers authorized by 1927 River and Harbor Act; reforestation of sloughs on Kentucky Peninsula near Evansville, Ind., authorized by 1930 River and Harbor Act; dredging to widen channel at certain points; and placing reve" ment at various points. Estimated cost of these items (1954) $6,565,000. Operation of snag boats on Ohio River below Penn sylvania State line was included in project July 1, 1935, under provisions of Permanent Appropriations Repeal Act of June 2 1934. Existing project was authorized by the following: Acts Work authorized Documents Mar. 3, 1827 Project adopted by this act originally covered entire length of Ohio River from its mouth near Cairo to Pittsburgh, a distance of 981 miles. It provided removal of all obstructions which tend to endanger steamboat navigation. 2d Jan. 21, 1927 Construct ice piers as a part of project, with funds I.

OHIO RIVER 907 Local cooperation. River and Harbor Act of January 21, 1927, Worizing construction of ice piers for general open-channel lork, inmposes condition that before work is begun on any pier, rCal Interests convey to the United States free of cost such iparian rights as may be deemed necessary in connection with eimprovement at locality (H. Doc. 187, 67th Cong., 2d sess.). osting ice piers are adequate for present purposes and local co- oPeration is not needed since no additional construction is under consideration. River and Harbor Act of July 3, 1930, provides that no expense shall be incurred by the United States for acquir- 69 lands required for purpose of this improvement (H. Doc. 409, 69th Cong., 1st sess.). However, since no serious overbank trosion has occurred since bank revetment in 1933-34, reforesta- ion is not considered justifiable at this time and no local co- o eration is required. Terminal facilities. See page 954. uperations and results during fiscal year. Dredging, where re- 1QUred to provide an adequate and dependable channel of project depth at minimum pool conditions, was executed. Dike and revet- raents maintained and routine work of maintaining navigation aids, removing snags, making channel studies, hydrographic sur- eys and mapping was performed as required. Operation and maintenance general: Channel soundings, hydro- graphic surveys, stream gaging operations, channel inspections cad aids to navigation, and miscellaneous inspections and reports cost $283,307. Dredging was accomplished by hired labor as follows: Huntington District, 324,000 cubic yards at $169,901 and Louisville District, 3,416,769 cubic yards at $653,357. Condition at end of fiscal year. New work under this project in substantially complete, since it is not anticipated that work on d'active portion of project will be accomplished. In addition to Oredging, local stabilization of channel has been effected at var- ru s Points by construction of dikes and revetment. Work which remains consists of dredging to widen channel at certain points Project depth.

(See H. Doc. 761, 79th Cong 2d sess.) In addition to supplemental authority granted of Public Law 396, 82d Congress, which provided construction Of hydroelectric power-generating facilities at Cheatham Dam, river mile 148.7, River and Harbor Act of 1954 authorized further modification of project for navigation on Cumberland River, Tenn. and Ky., to provide, in lieu of previously authorized works at Kuttawa, mile 32.2, and Dover, mile 100.1, for construcd tion of a multiple-purpose improvement for navigation, flood control, and hydroelectric power consisting of a dam, lock, and powerplant near mile 30.6 on lower Cumberland River and a canal for navigation and other purposes connecting pro- posed reservoir with reservoir formed by Kentucky Dam on the Tennessee River. Public Law 537, 84th Congress, provided that the dam to be constructed on lower Cumberland River, '' authorized by River andHarbor Act of 1954, and the reservoir to be formed by waters impounded by such dam, should there- after be known as Barkley Dam and Lake Barkley, respectivelY' Provision of interconnecting canal, involving excavation of a channel through narrow watershed divided about 2.5 miles UP stream from damsite will make alternative routes available for navigation between either Cumberland or Tennessee Rivers and Ohio River, and will afford integrated operation of Barkley an Kentucky Reservoirs through diversion of flows in interests Of flood control and power production.

Under flood conditions as regulated by upstream reservoirs, extreme fluctuation in stage of river below Nashville, Tenn., varies at different localities from about 16 to 55 feet above minimum Pool levels. Ordinary fluctuations vary with power flows from as much as the allowable 3-foot drawdown below normal pool elevation 385 at Cheatham Dam to a range of about 7 feet at Nqashville. Seasonal variation in normal headwater levels at Parkley Dam is 5 feet, which in combination with power flows Produces fluctuations up to 10 feet below Cheatham Dam. Above Nashville: River and Harbor Acts of August 5, 1886, March 2, 1907, March 2, 1919, and June 5, 1920, provided for construction of locks and dams 1 to 17 and 21 to secure 6-foot havigation at low water from Nashville (lock and dam 1, 188.4 niles above mouth) to Waitsboro Shoals (324.6 miles), and 4-foot navigation from Waitsboro Shoals to Burnside (3 miles) ; provi- 'ion also being made for periodic removal of snags and similar Obstructions from Nashville (lock and dam 1) to Burnside (327.6 rniles). Project as modified by 1930 River and Harbor Act further Provided for raising dam No. 1 by 3 feet (Rivers and Harbors C ommittee lcks Doec. 26, and dams 1 70th Cong., 2d sess.). Under above authority, to 8, inchiisive, and 21 were completed and placed in operation during 1888 through 1924. Raising dam 1 by 1 fltallation of crest wickets was completed in October 1931. ]roposed locks and dams 16 and 17 were eliminated from project UPon authorization of LakeCumberland (Wolf Creek Reservoir), construction of which has also resulted in permanent inundation of lock and dam 21. Further consideration of previously pro- Jected locks and dams 9 through 15, inclusive, is precluded under existing project as modified by River and Harbor Act of 1946, Prosecution of which resulted in replacing locks and dams 1 through 7 and will eliminate lock and dam 8. For statistical data concerning lock and dam 8, placed in an inoperative status in 912 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 1951, see page 1694 of Annual Report for 1950; together with details on locks and dams 1 to 7 and 21, displaced, and other struc- tures originally contemplated under project (pp. 1694 and 1695). o n to River and Harbor Act of 1946 also authorized, in additi further improvement for navigation between mouth and Nash- ville, construction of Old Hickory, Carthage, and Celina Dams above Nashville for navigation and power. Public Law 85-843, provided that dam and reservoir authorized for construction ofn Cumberland River near Carthage, Tenn., be known as Cordell Hull Dam and Reservoir. Cost of Old Hickory and Cordell U11 projects, including locks, is estimated as $109,975 (July 1967) Estimated cost of Celina Dam (1959) is $39,100,000.

Crosses Cumberland River at mile 190.7, within port of Nashville, Tenn., the present terminus for major portion of freight movements on the waterway. (See Geological Survey quadrangle, Nashville West, Tenn.) Existing project. Provided for construction of a new bridge to replace an outmoded, badly deteriorated structure which was built in 1886. Existing bridge afforded vertical clearances in cond formance with current standards, but pier arrangement resulted in inadequate horizontal clearances which presented a serious obstruction and hazard to traffic movements. Reconstruction was undertaken by local interests with participation of the Federal government to provide a structure satisfying require ments of both navigation and overland traffic. It will provide vertical clearances of 70 and 38 feet above normal and maximnun regulated water levels, respectively; and, with elimination of the center pier, will leave a clear and unobstructed channel 300 feet wide. Following a public hearing at Nashville, Tenn., on March 29, 1962, a notice to alter existing bridge was issued by Secretary of the Army on May 6, 1963, was authorized by Truman-HobbS Act of June 21, 1940, as amended. Local cooperation. In accordance with Truman-Hobbs Act, bridge owner must (a) prepare and submit plans and specifica- tions; (b) take and submit bids with a recommendation as to the most competent bid; (c) submit a written guaranty that total cost of project will not exceed a stated sum; and (d) bear pro- portionate share of total cost of project as determined by Secre- tary of the Army. Requirements (a), (b), and (c) have been met and the Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County was authorized January 22, 1965, to proceed with work of alteration. Operations and results during fiscal year. Operations under cost-reimbursable contract with Metropolitan Government Of Nashville and Davidson County for removal and reconstruction of Woodland Street Bridge were completed.

Damsite is at mile 2.3 on Laurel River, a tributary of Cumberland River, in south-central Kentucky. The two streams meet about 9 miles' below Cumberland Falls, a prominent physiographic feature at head of Lake Cumberland which is formed by Wolf Creek Dam. Reservoir will extend 19.2 miles uP' stream to site of Corbin, Ky., water-supply dam and lie within Laurel and Whitley Counties. Existing project. Project approved in general accordance with recommendations of House Document 413, 86th Congress, by 1960 Flood Control Act, as amended by Public Law 88-253, was designed for purposes of flood control, power, and recreation as an integral unit of a coordinated plan for develoP" ment of water resources of Cumberland River Basin. With the view of a net gain in power potential on a system basis, the plan of improvement incorporated appropriate flood control storage in the proposed project and corresponding adjustment in operations of Lake Cumberland (Wolf Creek Dam) for flood control and power, which in effect constituted a transfer of reservoir capacitY without entailing a change in flood control benefits. Further detailed study giving full consideration to power capabilities and marketing arrangements indicated the advantage of maintaining present storage allocation at Wolf Creek and use of all available storage capacity of Laurel, River Reservoir for power. As modi- fied within discretionary authority of the Chief of Engineers the project is now under construction in primary interests of power production and recreation, at an estimated cost of $26,100,- 000 (July 1967). Dam will be rockfill type, about 1,420 feet long and about 282 feet above streambed. An uncontrolled spillway will be in a,saddle on left bank about 400 feet from dam, consisting of an uncontrolled rock cut 750 feet long discharging into an unlined lateral channel which will direct flows back into main stream some distance below project site. A powerhouse of conventional indoor-type, with an installation of 61,000 kilowatts in a single unit, is to be directly at downstream toe of dam. At top of power pool, spillway crest at elevation 1018.5 above mean sea level, reservoir will cover 6,060 acres. It will provide a total storage capacity of 435,600 acre-feet below elevation 1018.5, in- cluding active storage of 185,000 acre-feet within a drawdown range of 36.5 feet allocated for power production, and leaving a pool of at least 250,600 acre-feet at elevation 982, covering an area GENERAL INVESTIGATIONS-NASHVILLE, TENN., DISTRICT 935 of 4,200 acres, available at all times for public use and conserva- tion purposes. Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Work continued under contract for construction of diversion and power tunnels. Real estate activities confined principally to basic work (land surveys, mapping and preparation tract descriptions, and updat- ing design memorandum). Forest Service program for removal of merchantable timber from reservoir area progressed. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of right bank access road, initiated in December 1964, completed in August 1965. Contract for construction of diversion and power tunnels is 86 percent complete.

Project was authorized by 1965 River and Harbor Act (I. Doc. 160, 88th Cong., 1st sess.) Authorizing act also provides the Secretary of the Army may reimburse State of Indiana for expenditure of funds used to construct such portions of project as approved bY Chief of Engineers and constructed under supervision of the Chief of Engineers. Unless construction of project begins within 3 years from enactment of this act, the authority to reimburse State of Indiana shall expire. State of Indiana shall furnish assurance satisfactory to Secretary of the Army that water and air pollution sources will be controlled to maximum extent feasible in order to minimize any adverse effects on public recreational areas in the general vicinity of the harbor. No appropriation is authorized to be made for construction of this project until Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore has been voted upon by both Houses of Con- gress during the same Congress. (The Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore Park was authorized by P.L. 89-761, dated 5 November 1966). Project depths are referred to low-water datum for Lake Michigan, which is 576.8 feet above mean water level at Father Point, Quebec (International Great Lakes Datum-1955). Surface fluctuations of Lake Michigan in the locality have ranged from a high monthly mean of 5.18 feet above to 1.15 feet below low-water datum. Monthly means within any year have varied from 0.36 to 2.23 feet. Temporary changes in water level may range from a few inches to several feet for periods varying from a few minutes to several hours. Estimated costs (1966) are $14,500,000 Federal and $76,400,000 non-Federal, a total cost of $90,900,000. Local cooperation. Local interests must provide lands, ease- ments, and rights-of-way for construction and future mainte- nance of project and for aids to navigation upon request of the Chief of Engineers, including suitable spoil-disposal areas de- termined and necessary retaining dikes, bulkheads, and embank- ments therefor or costs of such retaining works; hold the United States free from damage due to construction and maintenance of project, including damages resulting from any shore erosion that may occur; reimburse the United States for all excess costs for dredging if not done by hydraulic methods; provide and maintain adequate public terminal and transfer facilities open to all equally; provide and maintain depths in berthing areas and local access channels serving the terminals commensurate with depths provided in related project areas; construct a fully integrated steel plant; construct adequate east and west shore connections 1,820 and 2,500 feet long, respectively. Construction of these shore connec- tions is to be done either before or with construction of break- waters by the United States; and furnish assurances that water and air pollution sources will be controlled to maximum extent feasible in order to minimize any adverse effects on public recrea- RIVERS AND HARBORS-CHICAGO, ILL., DISTRICT 1139 tional areas in the general vicinity of the harbor. An assurance in acceptable form as to water and air pollution to the maximum extent feasible has been received. State of Indiana is proceeding under provision of authorizing act with construction of the harbor. Harbor being constructed by the commission provides for: A north breakwater 4,630 feet long; a west outer bulkhead 1,200 feet long; an approach channel 30 feet deep and 400 feet wide, extending from deep water in Lake Michigan to north end of east bulkhead being constructed by Others; an outer harbor 28 feet deep having an area of about 94 acres; an east harbor arm 27 feet deep having an area of about 18 acres; and a west harbor arm 27 feet deep having an area of about 71 acres. The Bethlehem Steel Company placed in operation a cold-rolled sheet and tin mill in November 1964 and a hot sheet mill in October 1966. The facility is located on a small portion of the 3,300 acre tract along Lake Michigan located adjacent and easterly of the site of the proposed Indiana public harbor. Plans are well developed for enlarging this plant into a fully integrated steel manufacturing complex comprised of the most modern equipment which will Process iron ore from pellet to finished steel plates and sheets. The Midwest Steel Company, a division of National Steel Corporation, has constructed the initial phase of an integrated steel producing Plant on a 750 acre tract adjacent to and west of the proposed Public terminal. This rolling and finishing mill began operation late in 1960. Terminal facilities. Under construction by the Port Commission of the State of Indiana.

Project depths are referred to low water datum for Lake Michigan, 576.8 feet above mean water level at Father Point, Quebec. (International Great Lakes Datum-1955.) Fluctuations in stage of river are practically those resulting from changes of water level in Lake Michigan. On Lake Michigan, seasonal fluctua- tions in mean stage from low water in winter to high water in summer average about 1.2 feet. Local and temporary fluctuations of 0.1 to 0.5 foot, due to wind and difference in barometric pres- sures, occur daily. Seiches of 3 to 4 feet occur at infrequent inter- vals.

Terminal facilities. In addition to a car-ferry slip, there are 13 wharves for handling coal, building materials, and miscella- neous commodities. City of Marinette provided a public wharf. Facilities are considered fairly adequate for existing commerce, ex- cept that there is need for a public wharf owned by city of Me- nOnminee, with warehouse and railway connection. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Recon- naissance and condition surveys were made during August. Sep- termber and November 1966, by hired labor at a cost of $5,477. Funds in amount of $3.267 maintenance funds were revoked. Condition at end of fiscal wear. The project in effect prior to the modification of March 2, 1945 was completed in 1938. No additional work was necessary under the modification of March 2, 1945 to Provide a depth of 12 feet in the extension of the channel to the vicinity of the Marinette Yacht Club as project depth or more was available. The entrance piers were completed in 1884, and were rehabilitated (1.954-1964) and are in excellent condition. Dredging of the channel below the Marinette municipal wharf, together with enlarging the turning basin to existing project depth, was com- lnlenced in May 1938 and completed in November 1938. The north Pier is maintained for a length of about 1.224 feet. The portion of the proiect authorized by the 1960 R. & H. Act modification is in an inactive category. The controlling depths at low water datum were 23 feet in the entrance channel to 21 feet or more between the piers: thence generally 21 feet or more through the channel to the Marinette nmunicipal wharf; and 21 feet in the turning basin thence 12 feet to a point 300 feet east of the upper limit of the project; thence 7.8 feet to project limit.

ST. MARYS RIVER, MICH. Location. A Great Lakes connecting channel about 63 miles long, flows southeasterly between State of Michigan and Province of Ontario, Canada, from eastern end of Lake Superior into northern end of Lake Huron. (See Lake Survey Charts 61, 62, and 63.) At Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., about 14 miles doWn* stream from Lake Superior, there are four parallel locks and a hydroelectric powerplant. Previous projects. For details see page 1955, Annual Report for 1915; and page 1529, Annual Report for 1938. Existing project. Channels permitting 25.5-foot draft na v i ga- tion in St. Marys River and Lake Superior and Lake Huron ap" proaches thereto; constructing and operating four locks and tWo canals; constructing a hydroelectric plant of 14 ,000-kilovatt capacity (45,000-kilowatt ultimate capacity) ; constructing an- chorage,areas in river above and below locks; and constructing various other works in conjunction with project. Original State locks were operated and maintained under permanent indefinite appropriation from June 9, 1881, to November 2, 1886, after which they were destroyed by excavation for the Poe lock in 1896. Weitzel lock, destroyed in 1942 by excavation for MacArthur lock, was operated and maintained under same appropriation from September 1, 1881, to June 30, 1935. Poe lock was operated at. maintained under same appropriation from August 3, 1896, Davi s lock from October 21, 1914, and Sabin lock from September 18 1919, to end of fiscal year 1935.

Project is designed rovide protection for city of Battle Creek from such peak- b ofld discharges ed,) dischargein ofchannels which would produce, when com- about 11,000 cubic feet per second below Cofluence of Battle Creek and Kalamazoo River. Estimated (1967) cost for new work is $6,800,000, excluding $171,000 to be contributed by local interests. Estimated cost (1967) tolocal interests is $3,400,000. Existing project was authorized 1252 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 by 1954 Flood Control Act (S. Doc. 98, 83d Cong., 2d sess., con' tains latest published maps). Local cooperation. Act of September 3, 1954, provides tbat no money shall be expended on construction by the United States until responsible local interests give assurances they will prO- vide lands and rights-of-way for construction; hold the United States free from damages; maintain and operate all works after completion, including supervision of maintenance and operation of existing Monroe Street Dam and headrace on Kalamazoo River; prescribe and enforce regulations designed to prevent encroachments on rights-of-way and improved channels; col" struct new highway bridges across new Kalamazoo River cut off; make all changes and additions to streets, necessitated bY improvements; and contribute toward project in accordance wit recommendation of Secretary of the Army; and provided further that construction of initial stage of project as defined in District Engineer's report may be undertaken whenever funds are availd able and prescribed local cooperation has been provided asn whenever local interests agree to remove at their own expense concurrently with construction of first-stage improvement, such buildings from Battle Creek Channel as in opinion of District Engineer may jeopardize effectiveness of that improvement. The first stage of project is defined as entire project exclusive Of Battle Creek channel portion upstream from its junction Wi Kalamazoo River. At time of authorization of improvement the Secretary of the Army recommended in the project document that a cash contribution of $93,000, at report price levels, should be made by non-Federal interests. Assurances were furnished by city of Battle Creek and formally accepted by the United States December 10, 1956. Local interests made a cash contribU* tion of $125,000 and allowed credit for channel construction and bridge removal work accomplished by them at old confluence of Kalamazoo River and Battle Creek channels. Cash contribu- tion received, credits allowed for work accomplished by local interests and anticipated savings in Federal. construction coSt due to reduced capacity of a portion of Battle Creek channel from abandonment of headrace, partially offset by increased cost of cutoff channel due to increased capacity, were collectively considered sufficient for expenditure of funds for completion o :first stage of project. An additional cash contribution will be required before starting final stage of project. All local co-oper' tion required for first-stage of project has been complied with. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Mis' cellaneous activities relating to project were continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. Kalamazoo River Channel downstream from cutoff channel was completed in 1961. Ne 20th Street Bridge was completed in 1963.

SURVEY OF NORTH CENTRAL LAKES Region in which operations are conducted lies within Location. Ohio, Michigan, States of Vermont, New York, Pennsylvania, de- t diana, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. For additional ails see Annual Report for 1962. Previous projects. In the region described, previous projects of Lake Survey have specified provision of complete navigation charts designed to suit needs of existing use of waters. These Projects, in addition to hydrographic and topographic surveys, contemplated establishment of requisite horizontal and vertical control where not already in existence, and measurement and analysis of other factors pertaining to navigation. A compre- hensive statement concerning prior projects on the Great Lakes, and formulation of "a general project covering to completion the Oerations of the Survey" appeared in Annual Report for 1907, Pages 844 to 850. Responsibilities under prior projects in Great Lakes portion of the region covered, apart from charting and avigational aspects, consisted of those pertaining to lake levels, hYdrology, and hydraulics of connecting and outflow rivers. The i07 Annual Report, referred to above in connection with chart- 11g and navigational portions of the project, also discussed prior and existing. responsibilities in these respects. A board appointed by the Division Engineer, Great Lakes Division, to study and clarify U.S. Lake Survey activities in this second category for- mulated a report which included definite recommendations. The board report was presented to the Chief of Engineers and ap- Proved January 21, 1935, as basic description of such responsibili- ties. *Existingproject. Portion of existing project concerned with charting provides for general maintenance of chart coverage. arious classes of charts are issued consisting essentially of general charts employing small scales; coastal, river, and sectional charts employing medium scales; harbor and confined locality charts employing large scales; and special charts such as those for recreational use employing scales suitable for purposes in- tended. Number of charts and individual chart scales and cover- ages are not fixed, project being made purposely flexible to permit 1311 1312 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 alterations to keep abreast of changing needs. Essential to chart* ing, and pertinent to lake levels and hydraulics as well, is the por tion of project relating to maintenance of horizontal and vertical control coverage. Original control was established under early projects in connection with initial surveys by U.S. Lake SurveY on the Great Lakes and by other Government agencies in the other areas of the district. Original control has been preserved wherever possible; where destroyed, it has been replaced a, needed; and where necessary, it has been augmented by additional control for use in connection with later surveys and other CorPS work. Project includes publications with information for bene- fit of navigation in addition to that provided by charts. These consist of such publications as the Great Lakes Pilot and supPle- ments thereto and various lake and river level bulletins. The Pilot, issued annually, supplies full descriptions of physical con0 ditions of waters charted and particulars of constantly changin conditions not adapted to adequate or prompt representation oBh charts. The supplements, issued monthly during the Great Lakes navigation season, provide corrections and additions to the Pilot Lake and river level bulletins permit maximum utilization Of navigational depths in Federal projects and elsewhere. Since 1859, lake level gages installed and operated by U.S. Lake SurveY have provided a continuous record of water levels of the Great Lakes and their connecting rivers. Present project provides for continued operation of a comprehensive gage network. In the fields of applied hydraulics and hydrology, present project pro- vides for continuing studies of all aspects thereof required for discharge of Corps of Engineers responsibilities on the Great Lakes. In addition to the foregoing, the Lake Survey Great Lakes Research Center makes scientific investigations of al1 aspects of fresh-water oceanography relating to development and utilization of water resources of the Great Lakes systern' in conjunction with which field surveys and observations are accomplished, data collected and analyzed and reports published. For additional details of existing project, see Annual Report for 1962. Operations and results during fiscal year. Results of velocitY and direction of flow measurements in the vicinity of Peace Bridge and Railroad Bridge in the Upper Niagara River were reported to Buffalo District, Corps of Engineers. Reduction of data from the 1965 discharge measurements at various locations on the St. Mary's River was completed. Discharge measurements on the Detroit and St. Clair Rivers were reduced and the results will be used for verification of the effects of the 27-foot navigation project. Measurements were made in seven separate channels of the lower Detroit River and the data were reduced. A bhY drographic survey was made and a network of water level gageS established in conjunction with the measurements. These data are being used to develop a mathematical model of the river to determine the effect of future changes in the regimen. A co- operative program of discharge measurements by the United States and Canada was started on the Niagara River. The pro- gram includes simultaneous measurements on the Tonawanda U.S. LAKE SURVEY 1313 Chippawa Channels around Grand Island. The results will Iad Ue to establish the regimen of the Upper Niagara River used and to determine the effects of aquatic vegetation on the river regimen. A report on various plans for extension of the Tren- ton Channel in lower Detroit River was completed and sent to Detroit District, Corps of Engineers. A paper entitled "The ffect of Power Operations on the Niagara River and Lake Erie" Prepared for the International Niagara Board of Control arPs orking Committee. Inshore hydrographic surveys were made n Northeastern Lake Michigan. Included were the waters ex- tending west from the Straits of Mackinac to Waugoshance Point on the south shore and to Epoufette on the north shore. Horizontal o trol was established on the islands and mainland between the future control fraits of Mackinac and Sleeping Bear Point for sections Of inshore soundings. Sounding of hydraulic across the lower Detroit River was completed. Revisory surveys on ake Superior, Lake Huron, and along the St. Mary's River teere completed. Surveys were also made on Lake Erie. Main- teance of vertical control at harbors on these lakes was accom- Plished. Concurrently, data were collected along the United oates shoreline of Lake Huron and a portion of Lake Superior or the Purpose of a shoreline property study by the International ireat Lakes Levels Board. Special revisory surveys were made , the vicinity and Milwaukee. Twenty of Chicago earlier special water- evel ages established in selected harbors on Lakes uperior and Huron were continued in operation. The gages are required to obtain data for verifying or establishing vertical 1oatrol at these harbors. Twenty-eight similar gages were in- stalled at harbors on Lakes Erie and Ontario. Field work for the re-evaluation of International Great Lakes Datum (1955) Was initiated with special order levels along the south shore Of Lake Ontario from Olcott to Oak Orchard, New York. The Program for research and investigation of all aspects of fresh- water oceanography, coastal engineering, and related scientific felds pertinent to the development of the water and related land resource of the Great Lakes was continued. The research is concentrated in the fields of water motion shore processes, water characteristics, water quantity, and ice and snow. Work accom- Plished on the various continuing projects included: harbor cur- easurements in four Lake Michigan harbors, three Lake Ment rie harbors, one Lake Huron harbor, and one Lake Superior harbor; deepwater wave measurements and wave hindcasting for three of the Great Lakes; short-period water-level disturbance Evestigation in Lake Michigan and Lake Erie; energy transfer t the air-water interface data collection at a research tower in sedimenta- t.ake Michigan off Muskegon, Michigan; coastal area barrier tion data collection in lower Lake Huron; sediment ef- fects study in the St. Clair River at the site of the proposed com- Pensation sills; physical and chemical water characteristics data Collection at 63 and 76 stations, respectively, in Lakes Erie and huron; water temperature measurements at 10 sites on the reat Lakkes; overwater precipitation measurement on seven small islands in Lake Erie and Michigan; hydrometeorologic parameter 1314 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 recording at South Manitou Island in Lake Michigan; Great Lakes ice cover investigation; and ice structure characteristics data collection on Whitefish Bay, Lake Superior. The contract with the University of Michigan for the study of wave hindcast* ing in the Great Lakes was completed. Computer utilization was increased for reduction of data generated by engineerin& and research activities. Computer applications included statistical analyses, lake regulation studies, and data report generation. A- major computer program providing a mathematical model of the entire Great Lakes system was developed for lake regulation studies. A "paper tape to punched card conversion" system was installed for automatic reduction and editing of hydrometeorolo ical data. Data collected by hydrographic field sections, suP"le mented by information from numerous sources, were comPriled for production of 44 new chart editions, three recreational chrt volumes, and three chart reprints. Changes in aids to navigation and other critical chart data were made by hand on 177,614 copieS of the stock of printed charts to maintain them accurate tO the date of distribution. This involved 2,131,855 separate opera" tions consisting of deletion of changed chart features and addition of new features. 171,290 copies of the charts were printed. Al~S printed were 77,000 copies of the Lake Survey Monthly Bullet of Lake Levels, 44 charts of the Mississippi River, for a total o~ 492,800 copies, and various status and flood plain maps. During the fiscal year, 126,246 charts were sold to the public and 15,623 charts were issued for official use with total receipts amounting to $148,340. In addition 3,048 training charts were sold amount" ing to $762. The 1967 edition of the Great Lakes Pilot v a prepared. During the fiscal year 3,624 copies of the 1966 pilot and Supplements were sold and 493 copies issued for official use; 2,983 copies of the 1967 Pilot and Supplements were sold and 454 copies issued for official use with total receipts amounting to $15,040. During the fiscal year 547 copies of the Waterborne Commerce Statistics, parts 1-5, were sold and 59 copies issued for official use with total receipts amounting to $460. In addition to the above publications, monthly and semimonthly lake level bulletins and tabulations of other hydraulic and hydrologic data of the Great Lakes were sent to individuals, neswpapers, vessel interests, industrial interests, Congressmen, and Government agencies in both the United States and Canada to whom the in" formation is of concern. The monthly bulletin of lake levels was sent regularly to over 6,000 official and private recipientS' Tabulations of river discharges, precipitation, diversions, water levels at specific locations, and other data were also dispatched regularly to 300 receivers, these being primarily official. Total cost for the year was $1,684,847, plus $84,095 for the Great Lakes Pollution Studies less $3,000 for items transferred into the project on a free issue basis. Reimbursable printing work was $85,674 for reproducing project and other special maps of Corps Districts. Cost of reproduction, correction and distribU" tion of navigation charts, printing and distribution of the Great Lakes Pilot; and preparations, printing and distribution of the Pilot Supplements amounted to $181,972 and was charged againds U.S. LAKE SURVEY 1315 the revolving fund, these costs to be realized through the sale of charts and related publications to the public and other govern- 1ent agencies. Other reimbursable work done by Lake Survey for district offices cost $71,868 during the fiscal year.

Modified plan provided for increasing capacitY o diversion-channel project under construction by Pima CountY.to accommodate standard project flood discharge; and conveYIn@ floodflow to Santa Cruz River by means of an improved channe along Julian Wash. Work under modified plan involved con'l pleting diversion channel between Tucson Arroyo and Souther Pacific railroad and enlarging that channel at Tucson ArrOY 0 ' enlarging existing diversion channel between Southern pacific FLOOD CONTROL-LOS ANGELES, CALIF., DISTRICT 1341 railroad and detention basin; completing excavation of detention basin and increasing discharge capacity; increasing capacity of diversion channel between detention basin and Julian Wash; con- o ructing an improved channel along Julian Wash; reconstructing Or fodifying eight highway bridges and two railroad bridges; 'nd constructing five new highway bridges. Approved estimated (1965) first cost for project is $8,840,000, comprising $5,900,000 tederal and $2,940,000 non-Federal, including $1,008,000 spent bor that part of completed improvements under plan developed by local interests utilized under modified plan.

Reservoir will be on Mojave River, immediately below confluence of Deep Creek and West Fork of Mojave River and about 14 miles upstream from Victorville, in Mojave River basin, Calif. Existing project. Project-document plan of improvement prO' vided for construction of a flood-control dam and reservoir on the West Fork of Mojave River. In 1964, project was modified to substitute a dam at the Forks site to provide regulation of floods on not only West Fork of Mojave River but also Deep Creek. Operation of this reservoir will regulate runoff from a tributary area of 215 square miles, reducing standard project flood of 94,000 cubic feet per second on Mojave River to a maximum outflow Of about 23,500 cubic feet per second. Because the natural channel capacity of the Mojave River is to be maintained at not less than 23,500 cubic feet per second, flood protection would be provided from those flows of up to standard project flood magnitude that originate upstream from the project. Approved estimated (1967) first cost for project is $15,500,000 ($15,250,000 Federal and $250,000 non-Federal). Project was authorized by 1960 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 164, 86th Cong., 1st sess.). Modification ~f project was authorized by the Chief of Engineers on November 27, 1964. Local cooperation. Local interests must hold the United States free from damages from all water-rights claims resulting from construction and operation of project; prevent- encroachment harmful to existing channel downstream from reservoir; and maintain channel capacity of not less than 23,500 cubic feet per second through improved areas. In addition, local interests have agreed to operate and maintain the recreation facilities con' structed by the United States and to construct, operate, and main" tain such future recreation facilities as may be required in addi- tion to those constructed by the United States. By resolution adopted May 3, 1965, local interests also agreed to contribute $250,000 in consideration of land-enhancement benefits provided by the modified project. Operations and results during fiscal year. Completed modified project plan. Contract awarded in June 1967 for Arrowhead Lake Road relocation. Initiated preparation of plans and specifications for main dam and appurtenances and acquisition of rights-of-waY. Administered real estate.

HIDDEN RESERVOIR, FRESNO RIVER, CALIF. Location. On Fresno River about 50 miles above its mouth and about 15 miles northeast of Madera, Calif. (See Geological Survey quadrangles for area.) Existing project. Provides for construction of a 163-foot high earthfill dam to create a reservoir with gross storage capacitY of 90,000 acre-feet for flood control, irrigation, recreation and other purposes. In conjunction with the dam the project plan provides for about 7 miles of downstream levee and channel improvements on Fresno River from Fresno River by-pass to Chowchilla Cana to accommodate project design flow of 5,000 cubic feet per second. Operation and maintenance of dam and reservoir would be re- sponsibility of Federal Government. Approved estimated (July 1967) cost for existing project is $18,170,000, of which $17,900, 000, are Federal costs, including $610,000 for basic recreation facilities, and $270,000 non-Federal costs for lands and damages including relocations for downstream levee and channel improve" ments. Local interests will contract with Bureau of Reclamatio for irrigation service. For future non-Federal reimbursement, see Local Cooperation paragraph. Local interests have also, over a period of years, expended about $300,000 for construction of low levees and clearing downstream channels to provide some local flood protection in the project area. This work is inade- quate during major floods. Existing project was adopted by 196~ Flood Control Act (S. Doc. 37, 87th Cong., 1st sess., contains lates published map). Local cooperation. California officially adopted project bY chapter 1202 of statutes of 1963, and by chapter 1438 of those statutes authorized State Reclamation Board to furnish assur ances that requirements for supplemental channel improverient will be met. With respect to the dam and reservoir, local inter ests must reimburse the Federal Government the portion of first cost and annual operation and maintenance costs allocated to irrigation function of project.

Operatiol and maintenance of dam and reservoir is Federal responsibilitY Existing project was adopted by 1944 Flood Control Act (II. Do . 513, 78th Cong., 2d sess., contains latest published map). Local cooperation. California officially adopted project bY chapter 1514 of statutes of 1945, State of California. Local inter ests, represented by North Kern, Buena Vista, and Tulare Lake Basin Water Storage Districts and La Hacienda Water District were required to reimburse the Federal Government the portion of first cost and annual operation and maintenance costs allocated to irrigation functions of projects. These costs based on a cos allocation study completed in December 1955, are $4,573,000 of first cost and 21.7 percent of annual operation and maintenance costs. For the years 1956 through 1964, an interim contract be- tween Bureau of Reclamation and local water users provided for storage and payment of irrigation water. Under provisions of this interim contract, local interests paid $1,936,229 through December 31, 1964. A long-term contract between the Bureau and local water users was executed October 23, 1964. Balance due on allocated first cost of $4,573,000 was paid by the water users on March 31 1965. Kern County assumed administration of recreation and de velopment and maintenance of public use areas at project in ac- cordance with a 25-year license February 15, 1955. As a result Of former Federal policy prohibiting charges for use of basic re- creational facilities under provision of existing license, the agree- ment with Kern County was revised. Agreement provides for oin"t operation and development by the Corps and Kern County.- per mits have been granted to concessionaires by the county to provide certain services not rendered by the county. Total cost of present recreation facilities developed by the county and its concession aires is about $1 million; $235,000 of this was a grant from the California Wildlife Conservation Board and about $340,000 is in- vestment by concessionaires. This investment provided partial development of 21 recreational sites around the reservoir. Licenses. In accordance with Federal Power Commission Docket No. E-6578, issued April 1, 1963, payment of $377,426 Wa made to the Federal Government by Pacific Gas and Electric Co. ($108,352) and Southern California Edison Co. ($269,074) for headwater benefits to downstream existing plants from Isabella Dam to cover benefits from April 15, 1954, to December 31, 196t, Subsequent to 1962, the power companies have in the aggregate made annual payments of $44,650 for headwater benefits. That amount will be paid each year until changes in operation, develoP* ment, or costs indicate some modification to be advisable. Cumula& tive use charges collected by the Federal Power Commission ind returned to the U.S. Treasury through June 30, 1967, amounted to $511,376. Operations and results during fiscal year.

Restrooms and water supply and distribution facilities .t campgrounds 3, 6, and 7 were completed by contract cost of $92,296; water well was drilled in campground 4 at contract cost Of $6,051; and water supply and storage at campgrounds 4 and 5 and sewage facilities at campground 2 were completed at contract Cost of $45,145. M.aintenance: Maintenance and operation activities continued With condition and operation studies at a cost of $56,343 and aJor maintenance costs as follows: dam and reservoir $48,660; Service facilities $14,344; and recreation facilities $207,461, which includes three rehabilitation contracts for repair of December 1966 food damages to roads ($30,352), recreation areas ($8,645), and campsites ($7,753). Structures were maintained in good condi- tion. Runoff of Kern River above Isabella Reservoir was much above normal for the year and among the highest on record. Peak nflow to Isabella Reservoir on December 6, 1966, was about 120,000 cubic feet per second, which is over three times the peak Ireviously recorded. Maximum storage occurred June 30, 1967, and amounted to 474,800 acre-feet, of which 466,800 acre-feet was irriation water, and 8,000 acre-feet was stored for recreation. Release of water for irrigation and spreading uses totaled 925,100 acre-feet, of which 298,200 acre-feet was released through Borel 0anal and 626,900 acre-feet was released through Kern River outlets. Reservoir completely contained the largest flood of record "Which, if uncontrolled, would have inundated most of Bakersfield and adjacent suburban area and also would have flooded large areas of agricultural cropland in Kern River Basin. It is estimated that Project prevented $51,000,000 in damages which would have Occurred from the December 1966 flood. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction began in March 1948 and project is 99 percent complete. Construction of main dar and Borel Canal outlet works and appurtenances and auxili- ary dam was completed in April 1953. Storage impoundment began December 1952. Project is operating to provide floodItems pro- tection and irrigation benefits for which it was designed. re aining to complete project consist of completion of radio- transmitting snow gages and associated relay stations at remote s at high elevations in watershed (hydrologic facilities re- quired for efficient operation of project during snowmelt periods).

Reservoir has a gross storage capacitY o 80,000 acre-feet. Estimated Federal cost (July 1967) of neW work for, Terminus Reservoir is $19,360,000, including $207,000 for basic recreation facilities. In addition, spreading works con- templated for Terminus Reservoir were constructed by local in terests at an estimated (July 1957) cost of about $750,000. Esti" mated Federal cost (July 1967) of new work for Success Reservoir is $14,295,000, including $193,000 for basic recreation facilities. For future non-federal reimbursements, see Local Cooperation paragraph. Federal construction of spreading facilities for Ter- minus Reservoir is considered inactive and excluded from fore- going Federal cost estimate. Estimated cost of this project unit (July 1957) is $750,000 for construction. Estimated (July 1967) Federal cost of recreational facilities, to be funded from Code 710 appropriations is $793,000 for Terminus Reservoir and $507 ' 000 for Success Reservoir. Operation and maintenance of reser- voirs is Federal responsibility. Flood Control Act of 1944 author- ized existing project and $4,600,000 for initiation and partial accomplishment of construction of Success and Terminus Reger- voirs. Additional monetary authorization for completion of this comprehensive plan was provided by Public Law 85-500 (H. Flood Control Committee Doc. 1, 78th Cong., 2d sess., & H. Doc. 559, 78th Cong., 2d sess., contains latest published map). Lake formed by Terminus Dam was designated "Lake Kaweah" by Public Law 87-568. Local cooperation. California officially adopted projects bY chapter 1514 of statutes of 1945, State of California. Local inter- ests for Terminus Reservoir are represented by Kaweah Delta Water Conservation District. Local interests for Success Reser- voir are considered to be represented by the Vandalia, Porterville, and Lower Tule River Irrigation Districts, the Tulare Lake Basin Water Storage District, and Pioneer Water Co., which represent over 90 percent of irrigated land and water-right holders along FLOOD CONTROL--SACRAMENTO, CALIF., DISTRICT 1433 Tule River below damsite. Local interests must reimburse the lederal Government the portion of first cost and annual operation and maintenance costs allocated to irrigation functions of proj- ects. These costs are estimated at 14.1 percent of first and annual costs for Terminus Reservoir and 9.5 percent of first and annual cOSts for Success Reservoir. Local interests for Terminus Reser- Vor also stated they will continue to operate and maintain spread- ag Works and downstream channel systems to provide required aPacity for disposal of flood waters. Local interests for Success downstream ieservoir also stated they will continue to maintain for disposal of flood annel systems to provide required capacity aters. Repayment contracts between Bureau of Reclamation and cal water users for irrigation supply from Terminus and Succes Reservoirs were executed January 11, 1965, and April 30, 1965, reSpectively. Reservoirs are being operated for irrigation storage as Well as flood control and incidental recreation use. Tulare County acquired water for recreation pools at the projects. Local Water users are being furnished irrigation supply at Success Re- servoir under interim contracts with the Bureau of Reclamation. Ocal interests paid the following total amounts for irrigation Services through December 31, 1966: Terminus Reservoir, $287,- 238 and Success Reservoir, $156,837 Tulare County was granted a 25-year license for planning, development, and management of ubl ic recreational areas at Success Reservoir July 10, 1960, and at Terminus Reservoir, June 5, 1961. Basic public-use facilities cOnstructed by Corps at Success Reservoir were transferred to Jurisdiction of Tulare County on January 18, 1962; facilities at Terminus were transferred June 20, 1962. As a result of Federal lolicy prohibiting charges for use of basic recreational facilities Under provisions of existing license agreements, effective Octo- ber 1, 1966, Tulare County relinquished certain areas under its administration and control. A license amendment was approved by the Assistant Secretary of the Army March 20, 1967. Under SUch amendment, effective July 1, 1967, Tulare County will retain Supervision and control of only specified areas, and in addition Will continue their present program of water safety, boat inspec- tion, and law enforcement at both Terminus and Success Reser- Voirs. In May 1967, Tulare County requested another amendment to the license to return specified areas at Success Reservoir to heir jurisdication. Such request is awaiting approval of higher ,UIthority, California Department of Fish and Game expended lfunds to improve fishery resources of Terminus Reservoir. Tu- late County, by expenditure of county funds and by a lease to a Concessionaire, has partially developed five recreational .sites around the reservoir. Estimated cost of facilities installed by the county is $53,000. California Department of Fish and Game ex- ,Pended funds to improve fishery resources of Success Reservoir, and, in conjunction with Tulare Sportsman's Council, developed a habitat for upland game birds. County of Tulare, by expendi- ture of county funds, by leases to concessionaires, and with as- sistance from California Department of Fish and Game and Tulare S ortman's Council, has partially developed six areas, some of 1434 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 which were provided with temporary facilities.

Maintenance: Terminus Reservoir: Maintenance and operation activities continued with condition and operation studies at a cosd of $32,189 and major maintenance costs as follows: dam and reservoir-debris removal from reservoir by contract and hired labor at cost of $14,817 and additional maintenance and operation of dam and reservoir $34,063; service facilities $14,033; and recreation facilities $39,459. Structures were maintained In serviceable condition. Runoff of Kaweah River above Termints Reservoir was much above normal for the year. Both winter rai flood and snowmelt season runoff were among the largest Of record. Unprecedented rain in early December produced a peak inflow to Terminus Reservoir of about 105,000 cubic feet per second on December 6, 1966, and resulted in a maximum storage of 147,200 acre-feet, only 2,400 acre-feet below the uncontrolled spillway crest. After subsequent evacuation to minimum pool level, snowmelt season runoff approaching 250 percent of nor al resulted in maximum storage of 156,700 acre-feet on June 3 , 1967, surcharged 3.6 feet above spillway crest by means ofo temporary barrier constructed in spillway notch. Released water for irrigation use totaled 35,300 acre-feet. Water released for flood control during the two flood periods amounted to 674,200 acre-feet, of which about 45,000 acre-feet reached the Tulare Lakebed area. Operation of dam and reservoir prevented large scale flooding in Visalia and other communities in flood plain a well as in adjacent agricultural lands. Damages prevented by project amounted to about $22,200,000 from December 1966 flood and snowmelt floods of June-July 1967. Success Reservoir: Maintenance and operation activities con tinued with condition and operation studies at a cost of $28,49 and major maintenance costs as follows: dam and reservoir' debris removal from reservoir by contract and hired labor at cos of $19,307 and additional maintenance and operation of dam a.nd reservoir $27,338; service facilities $15,947; and recreation facili ties---rehabilitation of flood damaged roads by contract cost $19, 658 and additional maintenance and operation of recreation facli-' FLOOD CONTROL---SACRAMENTO, CALIF., DISTRICT 1435 ties $39,709. Structures were maintained in serviceable condi- ton. Abnormally heavy rain in early December produced a peak 1 1 flow to Success Reservoir of about 61,000 cubic feet per second 0 December 6, 1966, more than double the previously recorded Peak of 28,000 cubic feet per second which occurred November 19 1950. Maximum storage for the year occurred December 7, 1966 and was 101,300 acre-feet, surcharged 6.1 feet above spill- \ray crest. Maximum outflow for the year was resultant outflow ,f8,810 cubic feet per second. A total of 47,000 acre-feet of un- desired water reached Tulare Lake in this flood. After subsequent evacuation of storage to permissible carryover level, snowmelt eason runoff, approximately 300 percent of normal, resulted in 4naximum storage of 89,400 acre-feet on June 10 and 12, 1967, barcharged 1.6 feet above spillway crest by means of a temporary arrier constructed in spillway. All snowmelt season releases were within the irrigation and spreading capability of service area and no uncontrolled flow to Tulare Lake occurred. Total ater released for flood control was 259,500 acre-feet. Operation of dam and reservoir prevented large scale flooding in Porterville a1d suburban area. Damages prevented by project amounted to about $11,200,000 from December 1966 flood and snowmelt floods OJune-July 1967 Condition at end of fiscal year.

Completed reservoir prevented an estimated $25,600,000 damage from the December 1966 flood to the Tulare Lake area, which consists mostly of intensive irrigated area and some small outlying communities. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction began in April 1947 and project is about 97 percent complete. Construction'Of main dam was initiated in January 1950 and completed in June 1954. Dam has been operating since February 1954 to Provide flood protection for which it was designed. Recreational facilities for various recreation areas under Code 710 appropriation,yi' tiated in fiscal year 1960, are 41 percent complete. Work remain ing consists of completion installation of gages and communication facilities for operation purposes, provision of channel improve ments, and completion of recreation facilities in connection with overall development of reservoir area. Radiotransmitting snoW gages and associated relay station are required for efficient opera tion of the project during snowmelt periods. These gages Will be installed at remote sites at high elevations in the watershed after snow gages now being developed by Walla Walla District have operated satisfactorily. Engineering and design is also required in connection with above activities.

(See U.S. Geological Survey map of the area.) Existing project. Federal participation, as authorized by the Flood Control Act of 1965, consists of a contribution toward the construction cost, based on flood control benefits attained by the water-resource project to be constructed on Calispell Creek bY Pend Oreille County Public Utility District No. 1. The preliminary plan provides for diversion of the runoff from about one-half of the drainage area before it reaches the flood plain, to reduce flood damages in Calispell Valley and increase power at Box CanYoD Dam. The project would allow a higher water surface above the dam during periods of flood. Amount of contribution is to be determined by the Secretary of the Army, subjectto finding bY him, approved by the President, of economic justification for allocation of the amount of flood control. Local cooperation. Prior to making any monetary contribution, the Secretary of the Army and Pend Oreille County Public UtilitY District No. 1 shall have entered into an agreement providing for operation of the proposed project in such manner as will produce the flood-control benefits upon which the monetary contribution is predicated, and such operation of the project for flood control shall be in accordance with rules prescribed by the Secretary of the FLOOD CONTROL---SEATTLE, WASH., DISTRICT 1573 to section 7 of the Flood Control Act of 1944.

Recommended modification was authorized by Flood Control Act of 1962. Construction to be accomplished by the Corps, with continued operation of project by BureauO Indian Affairs. Estimated Federal cost of proposed modificati (July 1967) is $1,410,000. Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preparation of o sign Memorandum No. 1, Hydrology, leading to establishment Of a standard project flood and maximum probable flood determina tion was completed and submitted for approval July 1966. Walla Walla District was directed by Office, Chief of Engineer$ to develop the spillway design flood in accordance with Englneer Circular 1110-2-27 in lieu of spillway design flood developed ty Bureau of Indian Affairs. Work is proceeding on developrent of design flood. Completion of General Design Memorandum 10 2 is contingent upon approval of spillway design capacitY. Condition at end of fiscal year. Modification of Blackfoot D])a and Reservoir in interest of increased flood control for Blackfoot River Basin was first presented as a potential project in review report for Upper Snake River Basin dated 1961, which was Pr pared jointly by Walla Walla District and Regional Office O Bureau of Reclamation in Boise, Idaho. That review report Vws authorized by a Senate Resolution adopted March 19, 1954, which requested a review of House Document 531, 81st Congress, 2i session, with particular reference to Upper Snake River B13as above Weiser, Idaho. In referenced review report, modification of Blackfoot Dam and Reservoir was presented as one of the potential projects warranting early consideration for construc tion. Interim report No. 2 on modification of Blackfoot 1an' and Reservoir, dated March 1962, included additional informra tion and analysis of February 1962 floods and confirmed project economic feasibility. It is on this latter report that congressional authorization is based. Design Memorandum No. 1, HydrologY is approximately 93 percent complete. Foundation exploratieon drilling at China Hat Dam and at Blackfoot Dam is complete. General Design Memorandum No. 2 is approximately 95 perceet complete based on a spillway design capacity of 15,800 cubic feet per second. If the spillway design capacity is increased, t report will require considerable revision to incorporate the new spillway capacity. No construction has been done.

See U.S. Geological MVIaP "Milton-Freewater" and "Bowling Hill" Oreg., dated 1964. Existing project. Channel rectification and improvement about 7 miles of Walla Walla River in the vicinity of Mlilto Freewater, Oreg., were authorized by the Flood Control Act of 1941. Project consists of revetted levees and channel improvement designed to protect Milton-Freewater and other low-lying areas in Walla Walla River Valley from flood discharges about two times as great as 1931 maximum flood of record. Construction begA in 1947 and was completed in 1953 except for the upper 1.7 m 1 leS of channel clearing and rectification which is deferred indefiniteY as being nonessential for the designed protecton. The initial COst of the project was $886,956 from Federal funds; $59,600 for lands and damages paid for by local interests; and $6,300 cond tributed funds. Serious deterioration of revetments has occurred during the past few years, and record floods of December 196e and January 1965 inflicted massive damage to the levees. Sice, the occurrence of these high flows (9,000 cubic feet per second)' hydrologic data have been revised, and new design standa s have been set for rehabilitation and reconstruction of the origira channel works. Studies have established that previous desig"i inadequate to contain maximum flows. The present design latest revised riprap criteria will provide protection from flo of 12,000 cubic feet per second. Present hydrological data Idie cates these flows to have a frequency occurrence of about once in 170 years. Federal cost for reconstruction and rehabilitatio of levees authorized by Flood Control Act of 1941 is estimated to be $1,049,000 plus $587,000 under authority of Public Law 84th Congress. Local Cooperation. Fully complied with. Operations,andresults during fiscal year.

The Board Comprises 7 senior engineer officers: Normally the Chairman is the Deputy Chief of Engineers; 5 members are Division Engi- leers (rotative basis) from continental U.S. divisions; the sev- enth officer is assigned full time as Resident Member and directs the staff. Appointments are made by the Chief of Engineers for Unspecified periods. The Board meets on call of the Chairman. Statutory duties of the Board as set forth in the act of June 13, 1902, and subsequent acts and amendments are: (a) to con- duct an independent review of survey reports covering projects for river and harbor, flood control, and multiple-purpose improve- Inents prepared by the Corps in response to an act of the Con- gress or a resolution of the House or Senate Public Works Com- tnittees, and to report its conclusions and recommendations thereon to the Chief of Engineers, who forwards the reports with his conclusions and recommendations to the Secretary of the Army for transmission to the Congress; (b) to conduct an in- dependent review of all special reports ordered by the: Con- gress and report thereon in the same manner as for survey re- Ports when directed by the Chief of Engineers; (c) to con- Sider and approve general plans for major modification and reconstruction of any lock, canal, canalized river or other Work for the use and benefit of navigation. All functions of the former Beach Erosion Board pertaining to review of re- Ports of investigations made concerning erosion of the shores of coastal and lake waters, and the protection of such shores, were transferred to the Board under section 3, Public Law 88- 172. An additional statutory duty was assigned the Board under terms of Merchant Marine Act of June 5, 1920. Under this act, the Board, in cooperation with Maritime Administration, collects, compiles, and publishes information on characteristics of U.S. ports. Physical characteristics of the ports are the responsibility of the Corps, and administrative characteristics are the respon- sibility of the Maritime Administration. In addition to its statu- tory duties, the following duties are the more significant among those assigned by the Chief of Engineers: Review Corps policies and procedures as directed; review reports of other Federal agencies pertaining to water resources development; conduct in- vestigations and studies of economics of ports and waterways; and conduct a year-long program of in-service training for plan- ners at GS-12 and GS-13 levels in all aspects of Federal water resources development to assist in meeting needs of the Corps for increased numbers of qualified personnel in this field.

By Public Law 85-500, Congress eliminated Preliminary examinations. During fiscal year 1967 the Board held five meetings of 1 to 2 days' duration in Washington. No Public hearings were held. The Board considered 98 reports, acted favorably on 36, unfavorably on 43, deferred action on 2, and returned 17. The Board recommended construction of proj- ects totaling $2,485,559,500, of which $2,200,559,000 was esti- rated U.S. cost and $285,000,500 the cost to local interests for Work and cash contributions. Of the 43 unfavorable reports acted on by the Board, 20 involved construction costs estimated at $245,774,800 consisting of $171,146,000 Federal, and $74,628,- 800 non-Federal. The remaining 23 reports contained no cost estimates as they dealt with improvements that were obviously unfavorable or no longer necessary. The Board staff submitted reports or comments on reports as follows: 3 reports by other Federal agencies on water resources development; 53 reports Prepared under special, continuing authorities for beach erosion control, small flood control and small navigation construction projects; and 25 special reports on civil works planning, includ- ing the review and submission of comments on revisions to Procedures published or to be published in Engineer Regulations. Studies prescribed by various River and Harbor Acts and sec- tion 8, Merchant Marine Act of 1920, continued, and the results Were published in two series of reports titled Port Series and Transportation Series.

MISSISSIPPI RIVER AND ALLUVIAL VALLEY BELOW CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO. Location and description. Mississippi River rises in Lake Itasca, Minn., and flows generally southerly for 2,340 miles through central portion of United States to empty into Gulf of 1Mexico about 115 miles below New Orleans. It is improved for barge navigation for about 1,827 miles to Minneapolis Minn. The Mississippi River and its major tributaries, the Missouri, Ohio, St. Francis, White, Arkansas, Yazoo, and Red-Old Rivers, drain 1,245,000 square miles in all or part of 31 States between the Rocky and Appalachian Mountains and part of two Canadian Provinces. Below Cape Girardeau, Mo., 53 miles above Ohio River, river bottom lands widen abruptly into an alluvial valley of about 35,460 square miles which was originally subject to flood overflow. A major part of alluvial valley has been protected from floods by levees which confine floodflows within a flood plain having an average width of about 5 miles. (See map of alluvial valley of Mississippi River, scale 1:500,000.) Observations made by Mississippi River Commission to June 30, 1966, show approximate maximum and minimum discharges between levees as follows: Cairo to White River, 2 million and 70,000 cubic feet per second; thence to Red River, 2,150,000 and 90,000 cubic feet per second; thence to the Gulf of Mexico, 1,500,000 and 80,000 cubic feet per second in Mississippi River and about 650,000 and 12,000 cubic feet per second in Atchafalaya River. As 1927 floodflow was not confined between levees, maximum discharges recorded do not include entire flow of 1927 flood, maximum of record below White River. High water and flood stages usually occur in late winter or early spring, but great floods such as that of 1937 occurred as early as January. Low water stages generally prevail from August to December. Extreme ranges in stages recorded at rep- resentative gages are about 60 feet at Cairo, 55 feet at Memphis, 58 feet at Red River Landing, and 23 feet at New Orleans (Car- rollton). River is nontidal above Red River Landing where 1640 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 amplitude of tide rarely exceeds 0.1 foot during extreme low water. Previous projects. For details see page 1944, Annual Report for 1932, and page 1682, Annual Report for 1937. Existing project. For the Mississippi River and tributaries in alluvial valley between Head of Passes, La., and Cape Girar- deau, Mo., provides for protection thereof from floods by means of leeves, floodwalls, floodways, reservoirs (in Yazoo and St. Francis Basins), bank stabilization, and channel improvements in and along the river and its tributaries and outlets insofar as affected by backwater of Mississippi River, including levee work on main stem between Cape Girardeau and Rock Island. When completed, 23,621 square miles will be protected from the Missis- sippi River project flood. Project also provides for a 12- by 300- foot navigation channel between Baton Rouge, La., and Cairo, Ill.; for salinity control structures; and for channel realinement and improvement including bank stabilization and dikes to reduce flood heights, control natural tendency of river to lengthen bY meandering, and protect levees from being destroyed by caving banks. Locations of major Mississippi River project improve' ments for flood control and navigation, including main stemn levees and appurtenant drainage structures, and spillways, chan- nel realinement and dredging, bank revetment, and dikes are shown in table A. Locations of levee work done under provisions of section 6, Flood Control Act of 1928, are shown in table E-4. Project provides for harbor improvements on main stem at Baton Rouge (Devils Swamp), La., Vicksburg, Miss., Greenville, Miss., and Memphis, Tenn. Locations of these improvements on tribU- taries and outlets in designated basins are listed in Table B. Table C contains data pertinent to dams and reservoirs. Table A.

Operation of flood control works effected reductions averaging 7 feet on the Caldwater and Talla- hatchie Rivers, 8 feet at Greenwood, and 3 feet at Yazoo City. Rises occurred on the Big Black River in May and June with stages 3 to 7 feet above flood stage. No important rises occurred on the Big Sunflower River. New Orleans District: On the Mississippi River the Red River Landing gage (flood stage 45 feet) recorded 38.1 feet on June 2, 1967, and New Orleans (Carrollton, flood stage 17 feet) crested June 3, 1967, at a stage of 12.4 feet, Simmesport gage (flood Stage 41 feet) at head of Atchafalaya Basin recorded a maximum of 31.2 feet on June 5, 1967. The Red River at Grand Ecore (flood stage 33 feet) recorded 25.2 feet on June 6, 1967, and Alexandria (flood stage 32 feet) 25.2 feet on June 7, 1967. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of existing proj- ect began in 1928 and has continued throughout ensuing years. Based on current estimated cost of $2,480,296,000 and actual ex- penditure of $1,482,265,100, entire project is about 60 percent complete. Results of continuing surveys of Mississippi River below Cairo are in published folio of maps, entitled "Flood Con- trol and Navigation Maps of the Mississippi River, Cairo, Ill., to the Gulf of Mexico, 1966." Contoured quadrangles, general maps of alluvial valley, and pamphlets tabulating river stages, dis- charge measurements, etc., are available for departmental use and public distribution under prescribed regulations. Road-map- type information folders of principal portions of overall project were published along with papers on subjects of flood control and navigation. Present construction status of project features follows: Mississippi River levees: There are 1,572 miles of levee now authorized for the Mississippi River below Cape Girardeau, of which 1,565 are in place with 1,479 built to approved grade and section. (Above figures include 51 miles on completed separable 1658 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 features.) Graveled or hard-surfaced roads have been constructed on 753 miles of these levees. (Tables E-1 through E-3.) Below Baton Rouge, in New Orleans District, about 134 miles of levee are protected against river wavewash by timber structures or levee-slope pavement. Foreshore protection works extend along 90 miles of levee. In order to insure adequacy of main stem levees, including those on south banks of Arkansas and Red Rivers, additional levee construction is recommended to provide a standard 3-foot freeboard, adequate levee cross section, con- struction of berms for levee stabilization and seepage control, levee wavewash protection where necessary, drainage structures, and roadways for proper inspection and maintenance. Bonnet Carr4 Spillway, La.: Spillway structure was com- pleted in February 1931, and remaining work completed in De- cember 1936, except landscaping, which was completed March 1, 1967. Operation and maintenance of spillway are carried on as required (See pp. 2089-91, Annual Report for 1938 for descrip- tion.) Birds Point-New Madrid Floodway, Mo.: Plans, designs, and specifications are complete for a levee and closure structure to prevent backwater flooding in lower end of floodway. Contract not awarded due to inability of local interests to furnish required local cooperation. Flood control work under section 6, May 15, 1928 act.: Levees constructed under provisions of section 6, 1928 act, as summa- rized in table E-4, include 129.4 miles of levee along banks of Mississippi River between Cape Girardeau,- Mo., and Rock Island, Ill., and 306.2 miles along tributaries within limits of MississiPP' River backwater. Mississippi River--channel improvement: In carrying out authorized channel improvement program between Baton Rouge and Cairo, 16 cutoffs were developed between 1933 and 1942. These, combined with chute channel development and alinement improvements, decreased channel length between these cities bY about 180 miles. Effect of this channel shortening, in increasing its flood-carrying capacity, is stated on page 1811, Annual Report for 1943. Much progress has been made in advancing overall channel stabilization program, involving construction of bank revetment, dikes, and improvement dredging, to prevent river from regaining its former length due to its natural tendency to meander. There are now in place 570 miles of operative bank revetment and 74 miles of dikes on Mississippi and lower Ohio Rivers as listed on tables D-1 through D-3. A navigation channel 9 by 300 feet is maintained by dredging as required during low- water season. Due to growing effectiveness of channel improve- ment program, average maintenance dredging requirements are steadily being reduced, and an increase in navigable depth is being obtained. A long-range plan has been developed and recommended to bring about desired program of channel improvement between Cairo and Head of Passes including additional bank revetment, dredging, contraction works, and foreshore protection. Baton Rouge Harbor (Devils Swamp): Construction was ini- MISSISSIPPI RIVER COMMISSION 1659 tiated January 1958 and 7,458,086 cubic yards excavated in com- pleting 2.5 miles of proposed 5-mile channel to project dimensions.

COASTAL ENGINEERING RESEARCH CENTER Organization and functions. U.S. Army Coastal Engineering Research Center was established under authority of Public Law 172, 88th Congress, which abolished the former Beach Erosion Board (organized under authority of sec. 2, 1930 River and Har- bor Act, as amended (33 USC 426) and directed that its functions other than review of reports of investigations made concerning erosion and protection of shores of coastal and lake waters, be vested with Coastal Engineering Research Center. The report review function was transferred to Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors, putting reports on beach erosion control and shore Protection studies under the same review procedures as reports in other phases of water resources study program of the, Corps. The authorizing act also provided that the functions of Coastal Engineering Research Center be conducted with guidance and advice of a Coastal Engineering Research Board, to be constituted by the Chief of Engineers in the same manner as the former Beach Erosion Board. During fiscal year 1967 the following served as members of Coastal Engineering Research Board: Maj. Gen. Jackson Graham, U.S. Army, Brig. Gen. Walter P. Leber, U.S. Army, and Brig. Gen. Harry G. Woodbury, Jr., U.S. Army) President; Brig. Gen. David S. Parker and Brig. Gen. Francis P. Koisch, U.S. Army, Division Engineers, North Atlantic Division; Maj. General George H. Walker, U.S. Army, Division Engineer, South Atlantic Division; Brig. Gen. E. E. Wilhoyt, Jr., and Brig. Gen. John A. B. Dillard, Jr., U.S. Army, Division Engineers, South Pacific Division; Dr. Thorndike Saville, Consulting Engineer to the State of 'New York; Dean Morrough P. O'Brien, Dean Emeritus of College of Engineer- ing, University of California; and Dr. Arthur T. Ippen, Profes- sor of Hydraulics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology. :Brig. Gen. Walter P. Leber succeeded Maj. Gen. Jackson Graham in Au- gust 1966 and was succeeded by Brig. Gen. Harry G. Woodbury, Jr. in March 1967. Colonel F. O.Diercks was Executive Secretary to the Board and Director of the Coastal Engineering Research Center through May 1967. Joseph M. Caldwell was Acting Ex- ecutive Secretary to the Board and Acting Director of the Center during June 1967. The Coastal Engineering Research Center is the principal re- search and development facility of the Corps in the field of coastal engineering. Its general functions are: (a) conceive, plan, and conduct research and development to provide better understand- ing of shore processes, winds, waves, tides, surges, and currents as they apply to navigation improvements, flood and storm pro- tection, beach erosion control, and coastal engineering works; (b) furnish technical assistance as directed by the Chief of Engineers in the conduct of studies made by other elements of the Corps with the view of devising effective means of preventing erosion of shores of coastal and lake waters by waves and currents; and 1689 1690 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 (c) publish information and data concerning coastal phenomena and research and development projects which are useful to the Corps and the public. Other functions assigned by the Chief of Engineers are: (a) assist the Chief of Engineers in planning and designing coastal works, including determination of probable ef- fects of such works on adjacent shore lines, establishment of hurricane protection criteria, evaluation of effectiveness of pro- posed coastal navigation improvements; and in review for tech- nical adequacy of studies, plans and specifications for beach erosion control and other coastal engineering works; (b) provide staff support to Coastal Engineering Research Board in conduct of its functions; (c) maintain liaison through appropriate Army and governmental agencies with domestic and foreign institutions which have the same interests in order to evaluate the effect of other efforts on the U.S. coastal research program; and (d) pro- vide consulting services on coastal engineering problems to other elements of the Corps and other governmental agencies as directed. Operations and results during fiscal year. Staff of Coastal Engineering Research Center reviewed 19 reports for technical adequacy; of which 7 were navigation, 9 beach erosion control, 2 hurricane protection, and one combined beach erosion control- navigation report. In keeping with the responsibility for publish- ing information and data concerning coastal phenomena, 16 tech- nical reports by staff members were published by CERC or in other technical journals during the year and 1 other is currently in press. Three technical memoranda were issued by Coastal En- gineering Research Center, 2 are in press and 4 more are in prep- aration to go to press. Two technical manuscripts were published in.the "Miscellaneous Papers" series, 1 is in press. Four other technical reports were presented before technical groups, but are not planned for publication. Nine additional reports are in prep- aration. A new edition of the coastal engineering manual, Tech- nical Report No. 4, "Shore Protection, Planning and Design" and a CERC Bulletin and Summary report on Research Progress for Fiscal Years 1965-66 were published. .The staff worked on 13 major research or engineering projects for various agencies and prepared 10 reports thereon. A number of lesser studies were made and reported on. A training course in coastal engineering was given to a group of trainees from the Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors, invited lectures were given at three univer- sities, and a number of descriptive presentations were made by staff members to technical and nontechnical groups. Research to supplement staff activities was carried out at 9 universities under 13 contracts, and with 5 commercial concerns. Funds were also provided the Waterways Experiment Station to assist in con- struction of the generalized tidal model basins. A major effort was involved in a geophysical and geographical search for bottom materials that would be suitable for beach use along the Atlantic Coast, and in a study of methods to place this material onshore. SAt the end of the year, studies by the staff were in progress on: characteristics of ocean waves by actual measurement at a number of localities; methods of bypassing sand at inlets; sources of beach material; wave runup and overtopping on shore structures, pro- RESEARCH CENTER 1691 COASTAL ENGINEERING Pagation and effect of secondary waves; studyrelation of longshore cur- of rubble-mound structures; of littoral rents; stability in the drift rate to incident waves; amount of suspended sand model-scale effects; adaptations of the wave spectrum surf zone; use of radioactive and analyzer to laboratory and full field use; dune growth and sta- fluorescent tracers in beach studies; sand action; bilization by sand fences; beach deformation under wave borrow material for beach fills; test of riprap use of offshore of completed shore pro- Protection for earth dams; reexamination piles; effect of groins; and life of steel tection projects; corrosionsynthetics in coastal structures; and use estuarine erosion; use of trap in sand bypassing. of middle-ground shoal for deposition Engineering Research Center or Research work at the Coastal general, financed by Coastal En- sponsored at universities is, in General Expense gineering Research and Development funds, Appropriated and al- funds, and Engineering Studies funds. for fiscal year 1967 amounted lotted funds in the three categories a total of to $2,030,000, $214,000, and $87,000 respectively, funds amount- $2,331,000.

CALIFORNIA DEBRIS COMMISSION This Commission, consisting of three Corps officers appointed by the President with the consent of the Senate, created by act of March 1, 1893 (27 Stat. L., p. 507), was organized in San Fran- cisco, Calif., on June 8, 1893, and has jurisdiction and duties extending over drainage area of Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers, comprising great central valley of California and extend- ing from crest of Sierra Nevada on the east to that of Coast Range on the west, and from Mount Shasta and Pit River Basin on the north to Tehachapi Mountains on the south. These rivers empty into head of Suisun Bay ultimately discharging into Pa- cific Ocean through connecting bays and straits and the Golden Gate. Duties of the Commission comprise regulation of hy- draulic mining in drainage area of Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers, Calif., so that debris will not be carried into navigable waters or otherwise cause damage; jurisdiction over construction and control of water storage facilities for domestic, irrigation and power development purposes; and direction of improvements for control of floods on Sacramento River.

Completed reservoirs are also utilized for recreational purposes; initial facilities were provided in fiscal year 1959. Recreation areas at Harry L. Englebright Reservoir are maintained by the Corps. Recreation areas at North Fork Reservoir are maintained and operated by Auburn Recreation Park and Parkway District. Total Federal cost of new work for construction of these reser- voirs was $4,646,872, including $40,000 for recreation facilities. Cost of recreational areas at North Fork Dam was $57,500. It is estimated (July 1967) that improvements to recreational areas will cost $445,000 for Harry L. Englebright Dam. Reservoir project sites on Middle Fork of American River and on Bear River are considered inactive and excluded from foregoing cost estimate. Estimated cost of this portion is $2,298,128 (1935). Existing project was adopted by River and Harbor Act of 1935 (Rivers and Harbors Committee Doc. 50, 74th Cong., 1st sess.). For latest published map, see project document. Act of Novem- ber 6, 1945, provided that dam constructed at Upper Narrows site on Yuba River, Calif., should thereafter be Harry L. Englebright Dam. Local cooperation. Satisfactory assurances were furnished the Secretary of the Army for repayment of capital cost of reser- voir from taxes on material hydraulically mined, under licenses, and impounded in these reservoirs. These funds are paid to Director of Internal Revenue then credited by Treasurer of the United States to Hydraulic Mining in California Debris fund. Improvements made to facilities at North Fork Dam and Reser- voir by Auburn Recreation Park and Parkway District under a lease agreement with Secretary of the Army and Auburn Boat Clubs (concessionaire) at an estimated cost of $36,000 since Sep- tember 1953. Licenses. Under provisions of Contract No. W-1105-eng-2998 with Pacific Gas and Electric Co., payment is to be made to the Federal Government of $18,000 per year for the first 30 years (December 29, 1942-1972) and $48,000 per year between Decem- ber 29, 1972, and December 29, 1992, in return for use of head at Englebright Dam and generation of hydroelectric power. Total payment through June 30, 1967, amounts to $432,100; these funds are paid to California Debris Commission and deposited for credit by Director of Internal Revenue to "Debris Fund." Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Engle- bright Reservoir, Code 710 funds-Engineering and design con- tinued by hired labor.

TREATMENT OF YUBA RIVER DEBRIS SITUATION- RESTRAINING BARRIERS, CALIFORNIA Location. Works are on Yuba River between Marysville and where the river emerges from the foothills, near Hammonton, some 10 miles easterly from Marysville, or about 9 miles below the Narrows. (See Geological Survey Topographic map of Sac- ramento Valley, Calif.) Existing project. Provides for storage of mining debris within riverbed of Yuba River, a nonnavigable stream, to keep such debris from passing into Feather and Sacramento Rivers to det- riment of navigation therein. Improvement consists of a debris barrier, a 40-foot wide reinforced concrete stepped slab with upstream and downstream cutoff walls; training walls 85,100 feet long which provide a 600-foot wide channel above and a 500- foot wide channel below dam; dikes across overflow channels; and protective works downstream to maintain Yuba River in its con- fined channel to its junction with Feather River at Marysville. Total cost of new work was $723,259, of which $361,482 was U.S. funds and $361,777 required contributed funds by State of Cali- fornia. (For details of project in its original form, see Annual Report, 1917, p. 1810.) In February 1963, center section of dam failed and major rehabilitation of structure was completed in December 1964. Total cost for required rehabilitation was $1,660,000,' of which $830,000 was Federal cost and $830,000 required contribution by State of California toward rehabilita- tion cost. During the December 24, 1964 floodflows on the Yuba River, the recently rehabilitated Daguerre Point Dam sustained considerable damage. (See 1965 Annual Report, p. 1647 "Opera- tions and results during fiscal year".) The reconstructed portion of the dam completed earlier in December 1964 was undamaged by the flood. Permanent repair of Daguerre Point Dam abutment RIVERS AND HARBORS-CALIFORNIA DEBRIS 'COMMISSION 1697 and fish facilities was completed in October 1965 at a cost of $448,700 with Federal and required State contributed funds on a matching basis. Existing project was adopted in a rather indefinite form by River and Harbor Act of 1896 and in its more definite form by River and Harbor Act of 1902 (H. Doc. 431, 56th Cong., 1st sess.). (For latest published map, see Geological Sur- Vey topographic map of Sacramento Valley, Calif.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with for new work and major rehabilitation work. Total first cost to local interests for new work was $361,777, all of which was required contribution by State of California. In addition, training walls were built on each bank below Daguerre Point for 11,250 feet and just above Daguerre Point, on the south bank, for 11,000 linear feet by two gold-dredging companies in connection with their dredging opera- tions. It was estimated (1902) that it would have cost the United States $450,000 to build these training walls. Flood channels were also built by gold-dredging companies within the confines of the project works. It was estimated (1926) that cost of equally ef- fective works to restrain debris movement would have been more than $776,000 to the United States. Total costs to local interests for initial and permanent major rehabilitation works were $830,- 000 and $224,350, respectively, all of which was required con- tribution by State of California. State of California must con- tribute annually an amount equal to the Federal allotment for maintenance. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Op- erations included condition and operation studies, and prepara- tion of plans and specifications, by hired labor. In addition, bank restoration and stone protection was accomplished, by contract, along right and left banks Yuba River, various locations upstream from Marysville. Contract cost for this work was $60,748, with Federal and required State contributed funds on a matching basis. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of project works was initiated in November 1902. Construction of Daguerre Point Dam was completed in May 1906; diversion of river over dam was completed in 1910; training walls and dikes were completed in 1935. About 140 million cubic yards of debris are held in lower 7 miles of Yuba River between Marysville and downstream end of training walls. About 20 million cubic yards are confined in river channel by Daguerre Point Dam. Additional millions of yards of loose material are in mine tailings fields adjacent to project training walls in upper 7-mile reach of project. Initial rehabilitation of Daguerre Point Dam began in July 1963, was completed in December 1964. Contract for permanent rehabilita- tion of structure was initiated in July and completed in October 1965. 1698 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 Cost and financial statement FEDERAL FUNDS Total to Fiscal year-------........ , 1963 1964 1965 1966 1967 June 30, 1967 New work: Appropriated 361482 $------------------- Cost-------- ------------------ ------------------------------------- 361:482 Maintenance: Appropriated.. $90,587 $28,000 $49,500 $200,000 $50,000 $1,340,5181 Cost--------....73,432 51,480 48,822 203,312 42,512 1,:332,989 Rehabilitation: Appropriated.. 900,000 ------------ 225,000 -70,000 -1,096 1,053,904 518,266 325,459 Cost----....-----------------........ 210,178 .------------- 1053904 1 Includes deferred maintenance funds in amount of $207,500.

Approved estimated (July 1967) cost for existing project (ex- clusive of above supplemental levee improvements), including nlew work and maintenance, is $163,900,000, of which $68,900,000 is Federal cost and $95 million non-Federal ($90,050,562 for lands and damages and relocations and $4,949,438 required con- tributed funds for levee construction, bank-protection works, and levee setbacks). Of this amount $4,939,752 was for new work and $9,686 for maintenance. In addition to project requirements, local interests constructed several pumping plants for drainage of agricultural and urban land protected by project levees. Also, some channel-clearing work was accomplished by State of Cali- fornia and other local interests to supplement project levee con- struction. Dredging below Cache Slough and reconstruction of Cache Creek settling basin weir are considered deferred and excluded from foregoing cost estimate. Estimated cost (July 1962) of these project units is $2,560,000 and $520,000, respec- tively, a total of $3,080,000, plus U.S. costs, for construction. Operation and maintenance of completed project will be respon- sibility of local interests; as units of project are completed they are transferred to agencies of State of California for operation and maintenance. Existing project was adopted by 1917 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 81, 62d Cong., 1st sess., as modified by Rivers and Harbors Committee Doc. 5, 63d Cong., 1st sess.), and modified by 1928 Flood Control Act (S. Doc. 23, 69th Cong., 1st sess.), River and Harbor Act of 1937 (S. Committee print 75th Cong., 1st sess.), and 1941 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 205, 77th Cong., 1st sess.). Local cooperation. Local interests have fully complied with requirements for all work completed or under contract, and indi- cated they will be able to fulfill requirements for remaining work as scheduled. Local interests' costs from required contributed funds for project work total $4,949,438 for levee construction, bank-protection works, and levee setbacks, of which $4,939,752 was for new work and $9,686 for maintenance. Operationsand results during fiscal year. Regular funds: En- gineering and design and miscellaneous minor work in connec- tion with levee construction accomplished by hired labor. Con- struction activities and contract costs were: Stage construction, levee construction, right bank Yolo Bypass and left bank Cache Slough, junction of Yolo Bypass and Cache Slough ($12,513) ; and stage construction, levee construction, right bank Yolo Bypass, left bank Cache Slough near Liberty Island, by dredge and other 1700 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 rental contracts ($9,829). Project prevented an estimated $18,- 000,000 in flood damages during the December 1966 flood period. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of existing proj' ect began in fiscal year 1918 and is about 99 percent complete. Channel improvement to date has produced a channel with a capacity of 579,000 cubic feet per second in Sacramento River below Cache Slough. In addition, discharges up to 21,000 cubic feet per second can be diverted from Sacramento River through Georgiana Slough. Completed major project items include about 977 miles of levees; five weirs with a combined discharge capacity of 602,000 cubic feet per second; two cutoff channels; two sets of outfall gates; channel improvement and clearing in Sacramento River, Butte Creek, Putah Creek, and Sutter and Tisdale BY, passes; construction of two main passes or floodways and second- ary bypasses at Tisdale and Sacramento Weirs and at Wadsworth Canal; construction of Knights Landing Ridge Cut and of Cache Creek settling basin; installation of gaging stations; and en- largement of Sacramento River below Cache Slough. Cutoffs at Collins Eddy and between Wild Irishman and Kinneys Bends were made in 1918 and 1919, respectively. Sacramento Weir was completed in 1917, Fremont Weir in 1924, Tisdale and Moulton Weirs in 1932, and Colusa Weir in 1933. Outfall gates at Knights Landing were constructed in 1930 and at mouth of Butte Slough in 1936. Pumping plants on Sutter Bypass were completed in 1944. Work items with reference to clearing, snagging, rectifica- tion of channels, and bank protection on Sacramento River and tributaries in Tehama County and from Red Bluff southerly, provided for by 1941 Flood Control Act were accomplished in fiscal years 1947, 1948, 1949, and 1951.

U.S. ARMY ENGINEER WATERWAYS EXPERIMENT STATION Organizationand functions. The Chief of Engineers, by letter dated June 18, 1929, to the President of the Mississippi River Commission, directed establishment of an hydraulic laboratory in the alluvial valley of the Mississippi. This institution is the Waterways Experiment Station with installations at Vicksburg and Jackson, Miss. It was initially established in 1929, under jurisdiction of President, Mississippi River Commission. By Gen- eral Order 9, Office, Chief of Engineers, July 29, 1949, the station was transferred to direct jurisdiction of Chief of Engineers, ef- fective August 10, 1949. Colonel John R. Oswalt, Jr., Corps of Engineers, is Director. The organization is principal field agency of the Corps for con- duct of scientific and engineering research, development, and in- vestigational activities in technical fields of hydraulics, ground mobility, flexible pavements, soils other than those phases involv- ing seasonal frost and permafrost, nuclear weapons effects on structures, terrain and waterways, and concrete other than those phases directly relating to design and construction of rigid pave- ments. On a reimbursable basis, Waterways Experiment Station performs experimental studies, applied research, and provides consulting service, pertaining to problems encountered throughout the Corps as are within its broad capabilities in its assigned fields. Such services include model and prototype studies, engineering and analytical design studies, laboratory research concerning port- land cement and bituminous concrete mixture proportioning, lab- oratory testing, and field investigations. Field investigation serv- ices include planning, accomplishment, and analysis of: com- prehensive exploration of soil and rock formations; comprehensive examination and inspection of portland-cement concrete structures in service including use of nondestructive testing procedures; in- strumentation systems to measure water velocities and directions and to determine pressures, deflections, and strains in engineering structures; telemetry systems, principally for hydrologic data; and field inspection services including establishment of control laboratories and training field personnel. Subject to approval by Chief of Engineers, studies can also be undertaken for other agencies. Waterways Experiment Station also operates for the Corps a central agency for analysis and dissemination of technical in- formation, particularly in, but not necessarily limited to, fields covered by Hydraulics, Soils, and Concrete Divisions. In con- nection with this fact-disseminating service, the station maintains an extensive scientific and engineering reference library and issues publications of general interest, and can aid materially in eliminating duplication of effort throughout the Corps in the con- duct of experimental studies. During Fiscal Year 1967, one an- nual summary, 184 reports of individual studies conducted at 1703 1704 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 Waterways Experiment Station, 9 translations, and 66 miscel- laneous publications for Waterways Experiment Station and other offices were distributed to Corps offices and interested outside agencies. In addition, editing and printing units completed about 1,200 miscellaneous assignments for Waterways Experiment Sta- tion and other offices. Operations and results during fiscal year. Work accomplished at Waterways Experiment Station is, in general, initially financed by revolving fund, reimbursement therefor being obtained di- rectly from agencies for whom work is performed. Cost for op- eration of station for Fiscal Year 1967 was $35,346,700, of which $33,285,670 was charged to establishments served for research investigations and related services, and $2,061,030 for permanent improvements and equipment. Of the reimbursable work, $5,605,- 550 was charged to civil funds, $27,567,155 to military funds, and $112,965 to nongovernmental agencies. Reimbursable work in- cludes $19,596,065 performed by contract. Total cost incurred for operation of Waterways Experiment Station to June 30, 1967, was $187,249,044, of which $175,138,261 represents reimbursable cost and $12,110,783 the unamortized cost of permanent improvements and equipment. PERMANENT INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF NAVIGATION CONGRESSES The United States by act of June 28, 1902, appropriated $3,000 a.year for support and maintenance of the Permanent Interna- tional Commission of Navigation Congresses and for payment of the actual expenses of properly accredited national delegates of the United States to meetings of the Congresses and Commission. An increase in the appropriation to $5,000 annually was authorized by 1948 River and Harbor Act. The 1965 River and Harbor Act authorized an appropriation of $22,000. Of this amount, $1,500 is Paid by the American Section directly to the International Asso- ciation with headquarters in Brussels, Belgium. The objective of the Association-to promote the progress of inland and mari- time navigation-is met by holding International Congresses and Publishing technical bulletins and other documents. The Con- gresses are held in various member countries, usually at 4-year intervals. The Association is supported principally by member governments, but membership also extends to corporations and in- dividuals. Member governments are represented at the Con- gresses and at meetings of the Permanent International Commis- Sion by delegates, the number of official delegates being based on the amount of the annual subsidy paid by the government, but not to exceed 10 in number. Corporate members may send one official representative to the Congresses. Individual membership is of two classes-Annual and Life, depending on the method of pay- ment of dues. The affairs of the Association are managed by the Permanent International Commission composed of delegates from the supporting governments. U.S. members of the Permanent International Commission comprise the National Commission, which is the governing body of the American Section. Director of Civil Works, Office of the Chief of Engineers, U.S. Army; and Resident Member, Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors, are ex officio Chairman and Secretary, respectively, of the National Commission. The Secretary handles all administrative matters of the American Section. During fiscal year 1967, U.S. members of the Permanent International Commission were Brig. Gen. H. G. Woodbury, Jr., USA, ex officio Chairman of the National Com- mission; Col. A. D. Wilder, CE-USA, ex officio Secretary; Maj. Gen. Charles G.

The International Commissions on Force of Waves and Seiches and on Study of Criteria for Eco- nomic Justification of Waterways held no meetings during fiscal year 1967. Membership of American Section on June 30, 1967, totaled 734, consisting of 669 individuals and 65 corporate mem- bers. Federal funds from annual appropriation were expended as follows: Annual U.S. contribution to Association ........... $1,500 Expenses of representative to meetings in London and Brussels .................................... 5,470 Publications ................................... 30 Total obligations ........................... $7,000 INVESTIGATIONS AND SUPERVISION OF PROJECTS UNDER FEDERAL WATER POWER ACT Federal Water Power Act of June 10, 1920, created the Federal Power Commission, composed of Secretaries of War, Interior, and Agriculture, with authority to grant permits and licenses for hydroelectric developments in all waters over which Congress has Jurisdiction. The act further required that work of the Commis- sion be performed by and through the Departments of War, Interior, and Agriculture, and their engineering, technical, and other personnel except as may be otherwise provided by law. By act of June 23, 1930, entitled "An Act to reorganize the Federal Power Commission," sections 1 and 2 of Federal Water Power Act of 1920 were amended. A commission was provided for to be composed of five commissioners to be appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate. Necessity of Performing work through the Departments of War, Interior, and Agriculture was removed and the Commission authorized to ap- Point such officers and employees as necessary in executing its functions. By title II, Public Utility Act of 1935, original Fed- eral Water Power Act was made part I of Federal Power Act, and parts II and III added to that act. The law also provides that no waterpower license affecting navigable capacity of any navigable waters of the United States shall be issued until plans of the dam or other structures affecting navigation have been approved by the Chief of Engineers and Secretary of the Army. There is further provision whereby any person or corporation intending to construct project works in any stream over which Congress has jurisdiction, other than navigable waters, shall file a declaration of intention for purpose of ascertaining whether or not jurisdic- tion of the Federal Power Commission will attach. The following work of an engineering nature was assigned and accomplished during the fiscal year: Plans approved by Chief of Engineers and Secretary of the Army in accordance 39 with sec. 4(e) of the Federal Water Power Act------------------------ Reports submitted on applications for preliminary permits or licenses or amend- ments thereto and reports on licensed projects subject to recapture------- -- 99 9 Licenses and permits under supervision...----------------------------- Necessary expenses in excess of nominal amounts for transpor- tation and subsistance of personnel engaged in investigations and cost of supervision under provisions of Federal Power Act are paid from appropriations made for Federal Power Commission. All other costs of administration of laws in question are paid from funds available for general expense of the Corps of Engi- neers. No expenses were paid from appropriations made for Federal Power Commission during the fiscal year. 1707 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS In addition to the work of improving rivers and harbors, civil Works of a miscellaneous character as indicated below have been committed to the Corps of Engineers. Work accomplished. The work of the fiscal year is summarized as follows: Anchorage areas, special, established or modified under provisions of sec 1, act of Apr 22, 1940 ..........

SIn addition, 23 extensions of time on bridge plans were approved. 2 in addition, 307 sunken vessels were investigated, removed by owner, or removal not con- sidered necessary. 8These data cover the period July 1, 1966 through March 31, 1967. On April 1, 1967, the responsibility for administering these functions was transferred to the Department of Trans- Portation by Section 6(g) of an Act of Congress approved October 15, 1966 (Public Law 89- 670). These functions are now administered by the United States Coast Guard. However, the Corps of Engineers has agreed to assist the Coast Guard on a reimbursable basis in the ad- ministration of these functions until such time as they have the necessary staff to assume the new responsibilities, such assistance to be discontinued gradually but not later than June 30, 1968. Appropriations. The funds with which the miscellaneous civil works were prosecuted during the year totaled $2,416,728 and were derived as follows: For investigations, inspections, hearings, reports, service of notice or other action incidental to examination of plans or sites of bridges or other structures built or proposed to be built in or over navigable waters or to examinations into alleged violations of law for the protection and preservation of navigable waters of the United States or to the establishment of, marking of harbor lines or establishment of anchorages: Allotted during year ......................... $1,356,089 (These funds were allotted from river and harbor appropria-, tions in accordance with the provisions of sec 6, River and Harbor Act of Mar 3, 1905). 1709 1710 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 For the investigation and removal of sunken vessels: Balance on hand July 1, 1966 ................ 206,505 Allotted during year (net) ..................... 854,134 '(These funds were allotted from the appropriation Op- eration and Maintenance, General, Protection of Naviga- tion, Removal of Sunken Vessels and Other Obstructions).

These Boards are as follows: INTERNATIONAL ST. CROIX RIVER BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was organized pursuant to conditions in the orders of the International Joint Commission approving the maintenance and operation of the dam built by the St. Croix Water Power Company and the Sprague Falls Manu- facturing Company, Limited, across the St. Croix River at Grand Falls in the State of Maine, and subsequent agreements reached between the Governments of the United States and the Dominion of Canada. The Board is charged with the duty of formulating and administering rules under which the power plant and acces- sories are to be operated to prevent as nearly as possible a level of water at the dam higher than 203.5 (mean sea level datum), and to secure the users of water below Grand Falls the flow of water to which they are entitled. The Board is also charged with the supervision of the operation of all fishways on that portion of the St. Croix River that forms the international boundary. On 2 October 1934, the International Joint Commission issued an order approving the reconstruction of the dam by the Canadian Cottons, Limited, extending across the St. Croix River from Mill- town in the Province of New Brunswick, Canada, to Milltown in the State of Maine, United States of America, which contained the following conditions: (a) Reconstructed dam to be operated to insure that the forebay levels rise to no higher elevation than that which was obtained in the operation of the dam now being replaced; (b) during times of flood the sluiceways of the darn shall be sufficiently open to insure passage of the river flow, and MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS 1711 (c) operation of the dam, insofar as necessary to insure the ob- Servance of the provisions of this Order, be under the supervision of the International St. Croix River Board of Control. On 19 November 1965, the Commission directed the Board of Control, in addition to the duties previously assigned, to carry out the duties contained in the Order of Approval dated 15 October 1965, for the construction of the storage dam at Vanceboro and requested that future reports be submitted semi-annually two weeks in advance of the April and October meetings. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. J. E. Peters, District Engineer, Water Resources Branch, Department of Mines and Technical Surveys, serving as Canadian Member, and Col. Remi 0. Renier, Corps of Engineers, U.S. Army, Acting Division En- gineer, New England, appointed February 1966, to succeed Col. ]Edward J. Ribbs. Operations during fiscal year. Supervision was maintained and inspection made by representatives of the Canadian and United States members to insure that the regulations of the In- ternational Joint Commission were carried out. Routine inspec- tions were made by field staff members to verify the accuracy of the data submitted by the reporting agencies. Proposed Operations. Such correspondence and inspection as mIay be necessary to carry out the regulations of the International Joint Commission will be continued. INTERNATIONAL LAKE MEMPHREMAGOG BOARD Constitution and duties. Lake Memphremagog is in northern Vermont and southeastern Quebec and has as its outlet Magog River in Canada. In 1920, a petition filed by the city of Newport and towns of Derby, Coventry, and Barton, Vt., alleged they had been harmed by high lake levels attributable to construction and operation of power plants on the Magog River. As a result, an international body composed of one engineer each from the United States and Canada entitled "International Lake Memphremagog Board" was appointed to consider the matter and submit a joint report to each Government as to the level or levels at which Lake IVemphremagog should so far as possible, be maintained. At the request of local interests, consideration of the problem was sus- pended until 1931 when a survey was made. Subsequently a joint' report by the two members of the Board, dated May 14, 1934, was submitted to their respective Governments. This report recom- mended that the levels of the lake under normal flow conditions range between an upper elevation of 682.70 feet above mean sea level (Geodetic Survey of Canada, 1923 adjustment), and a lower limit of 678.85 feet above the same datum. During flood conditions, the sluiceways of the dam shall be so operated as to reduce the flood water elevations to the normal regulated level of 682.70 as rapidly as possible. The Board was reactivated in August 1960 as a result of a complaint on July 20, 1959, by a resident of New- port, Vt., concerning high lake levels due to alleged improper operation of the power plant.

The Board was organized pursuant to the provisions of the orders, dated June 10, 1937, of the In" ternational Joint Commission, approving construction and opera- tion of certain remedial works in Richelieu River at Fryer's Is- land, Quebec. The Board is responsible for insuring compliance with provisions of the order of approval insofar as they relate to the regulation of the levels of Lake Champlain. Members of. the Board for fiscal year. Mr. H. B. Rosenberg, Water Resources Branch, Department of Mines and Technical Surveys, for Canada and Col. R. T. Batson, Corps of Engineers, U.S. Army, for the United States. Operations and results during fiscal year. The Fryer's Island control dam was transferred from the Department of Public Works to the Department of Transport in 1965, and during the summer of 1966 experiments were carried out to impound some water above the dam to enhance the appearance of the river at Ile Ste. Therese. The level was held well below the flood level at Ile Ste. Therese and the rapids between St. Johns and Ile Ste. Therese were not flooded. Because of fairly high flows, the ex- periment has not been repeated in 1967; however, it is expected that later in the year the dam will again be operated and gages used to try to determine the behavior of this section of the river with the dam in operational use during low flow. The dam will be held completely open during periods of more than minimum flows. :A new dam is presently under construction at St. Ours. It will have five 100-foot long control sections and will permit maintenace of the 12-foot navigation channel between St. Ours and Chambly Basin. The new structure will replace an over- MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS 1713 topping weir type structure. In view of the rapidly deteriorating Chambly Canal, studies are underway to determine the best method of maintaining navigation between Chambly and St. Johns. INTERNATIONAL ST. LAWRENCE RIVER BOARD OF CONTROL Constitutionand duties. The International St. Lawrence River Board of Control was appointed in February 1954 pursuant to the provisions of the Order of Approval dated October 29, 1952, Issued by the International Joint Commission for the construc- tion of certain works for the development of power in the In- ternational Rapids Section of the St. Lawrence River. The Com- mission instructed the Board to perform the duties assigned to it by the Order of Approval of October 29, 1952. These responsibili- ties include: (a) Board of Control is to determine the gages, measurements and other services to be provided by the Power Authority of the State of New York and the Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario in order to furnish accurate records relat- ing to water levels and the discharge of water through the works and the regulation of the flow of water through the International Rapids Section; (b) upon completion of the works the duties of the Board shall be to insure that the provisions of the Commis- sion's Orders relating to water levels and the regulation of the discharge of water from Lake Ontario and the, flow of water through the International Rapids Section are complied with, and the Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario and the Power Authority of the State of New York shall duly observe any direc- tion given them by the Board of Control for the purpose of en- suring such compliance. The Board of Control shall report to the Commission at such times as the Commission may determine; and (c) in addition to the reports to be made to the Commission in accordance with the terms of the Orders of Approval, the Board was requested to report at the Commission's semi-annual meetings and also to keep the Commission currently informed with regard to the discharge of water from Lake Ontario and the flow through the. International Rapids Section of the St. Lawrence River. At a meeting of the International Joint Commission in Toronto on January 25, 1957, studies of the regulation of Lake Ontario in furtherance of such studies accomplished by the International Lake Ontario Board of Engineers were assigned to the Interna- tional St. Lawrence River Board of Control. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Canadian members: Mr. T. M. Patterson, Special Advisor to Assistant Deputy Minister (Water), Department of Energy, Mines and Resources, Chairman of the Canadian Section; Mr. J. B. Bryce, Hydraulic Engineer, Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario; Mr. Y. DeGuise, Assistant Chief Engineer, Quebec Hydro-Electric Commission; and Mr. D. M. Ripley, Chief Hydraulic Engineer, Economic Policy and Research Branch, Department of Transport. U.S. members of the Board were: the Division Engineer, U.S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, Chairman, ex-officio, U.S. Section; Mr. Thomas M. Crum, Deputy to the Chief, Division of Licensed Projects, Federal Power Commission; Mr. J. B. McMorran, Super- intendent of Public Works, State of New York; and Mr. F. F. 1714 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 Snyder, Hydraulic Engineer, Office, Chief of Engineers, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Brigadier General Roy T. Dodge, U.S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, was Division Engineer during fiscal year 1967. Activities during fiscal year. The Board met in Toronto on September 8, 1966, in Ottawa on October 4, 1966; presented its Twenty-Sixth Progress Report to the International Joint Com- mission on October 4, 1966; met in New York on December 13, 1966, in Washington, D.C. on April 4, 1967 and presented its Twenty-Seventh Progress Report to the International Joint Com- mission on April 5, 1967. The Board of Control approved the Twenty-Fourth and TwentY- Fifth reports by the Committee on River Gaging, a committee of the Board which provides and maintains a comprehensive pro- gram for recording river levels and flows. The Power Entities have installed the necessary gages requested to date and the re- quired records are being obtained. The Committee on river gaging keeps the Board of Control advised regarding the gaging program. During the past year the levels and outflows have con- tinued to be regulated in accordance with the International Joint Commission directive of April 8, 1960 that, commencing on April 20, 1960, the St. Lawrence project be so operated as to conforfm to the criteria and other requirements of the Commission's Orders of Approval dated October 29, 1952 and July 2, 1956. Regula- tion Plan 1958-D is the plan currently approved by the Com- mission for use by the Board in consulting with the Power En- tities and other interests concerned on compliance with the criteria and other requirements of the Order of Approval. Although the supply conditions on the Great Lakes have improved over those existing one year ago the supplies to Lake Ontario have remained below normal during the reporting period. There were no viola- tions of the approved range of stage during the period. Under its discretionary authority, with continuing guidance from the In- ternational Joint Commission and with advice from the interests involved, the Board of Control has regulated the Lake Ontario outflow to best meet the requirements set forth in the Orders of Approval. In some instances this has involved storage of water by flowing less than minmum flows under the present regulation plan; in other instances water has been taken from storage. Peak- ing tests were continued throughout the period and ponding tests were authorized during the non-navigation season. Additional emergency flows were authorized during winter months to be used to meet possible system emergencies. No problems related to ice formation were encountered during the winter. INTERNATIONAL NIAGARA BOARD OF CONTROL Constitutionand duties. The Board was established August 19, 1953 by directive of the International Joint Commission to super- vise the construction, maintenance and operation of the Niagara Remedial Works, recommended by the International Joint Com- mission in its 1953 report "Preservation and Enhancement of Niagara Falls". Members of the Board for fiscal year. The Board consists of MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS 1715 four members, two representing the United States and two rep- resenting Canada. U.S. members of the Board were the Division Engineer, U.S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, Corps of Engineers, Chairman ex-officio, U.S. Section; and Mr. Thomas CI. Crum, Deputy to the Chief, Division of Licensed Projects, Fed- eral Power Commission. Brigadier General Roy T. Dodge was Division Engineer, U.S. Army Engineer, North Central, during fiscal year 1967. Canadian members were Mr. T. M. Patterson, Special Advisor to Assistant Deputy Minister (Water), Depart- rment of Energy, Mines and Resources, Chairman of the Canadian Section and Mr. Gerald Millar, Chief Engineer, Harbours and Rivers Engineering Branch, Department of Public Works. Activities during fiscal year. The Board met in Ottawa on October 3, 1966; presented its Twenty-Seventh Progress Report to the International Joint Commission on October 4, 1966; met in Washington, D.C. on April 4, 1967; presented its Twenty- Eighth Progress Report to the International Joint Commission ef- on April 5, 1967 and met in Niagara Falls on June 12, 1967. The fectiveness of the landscaping work of the Tower Island Ramp is under continuing review by the Board. Some experimental landscaping and resowing of grass on the ramp was accomplished; however, the Board is not satisfied with the results. The Power Entities were informed that further work is necessary to remedy this situation. Congress has authorized the Corps of Engineers to study and determine the necessary action to restore and preserve the beauty of the American Falls. Congress appropriated $50,000 for this study in fiscal year 1967. $100,000 has been requested for fiscal falls year 1968. A reduced vertical distance from the crest of thereduc- down to the talus is apparent in several areas, resulting in a tion in the effect of the spectacle. A photogrammetric survey on of the area surrounding the American Falls was accomplished November 12, 1966 in connection with the authorized study of measures to preserve and enhance the scenic beauty of the Ameri- can Falls of the Niagara River. The Board approved a temporary deviation from the normal level of the Chippawa-Grass Island Pool for an 8 hour interval so as to provide a temporary reduction in flow over the American Falls but yet fulfill the total flow requirements of the Treaty of 1950. This reduction was carried out with the cooperation of the Power Entities who performed the necessary adjustments of power diversions from the Chip- pawa-Grass Island Pool. The purpose of reducing the flow over the crest of the American Falls was to obtain aerial photographs of the river bed above the Falls and to permit visual inspection of the talus at the base of the American Falls. On January 25, 1967 the Buffalo District submitted a plan of survey titled "Pres- ervation and Enhancement of the Scenic Beauty of the American Falls" to the Division Engineer, North Central Division for his approval. Further geologic and engineering studies are necessary before final determination can be made of measures to be taken to preserve and enhance the scenic beauty of the American Falls. At the International Joint Commission meeting in Washington in 1716 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 April 1967, the Commission informed the International Niagara Board of Control that, by a Reference dated March 31, 1967, the Governments of Canada and the United States had requested an investigation and report upon measures necessary to preserve and enhance the beauty of the American Falls at Niagara. The Com- mission has under advisement the matter of forming a Board for this investigation and has requested the assistance of the Niagara Board of Control in the first stages of its investigation. The ice boom in the outlet from Lake Erie, referred to in a previous report, was fully reinstalled on December 6, 1966 and removed by April 6, 1967. Over the past three winters the ice boom has functioned successfully. Not only has it very substantially iim- proved the utilization of water for the production of power and resultant dependability but has also greatly reduced ice damage to other interests. No serious ice problems were encountered during the past winter. During the past fiscal year the gates in the control structure have been operated to maintain the pool within the limits set by the Board. On days when there are ice runs or storms the normal operating limits for the Chippawa- Grass Island Pool may be suspended temporarily and, under such circumstances, the Power Entities diverting water from the pool are expected to use their best judgment in operating the gates. The Board, assisted by regular reports from its Working Com- mittee, has closely observed the operation of the control structure to assure that operation of the structure was in accordance with the Board's instructions. The Board has encountered no unusual maintenance problem during the year. INTERNATIONAL NIAGARA COMMITTEE Constitution and duties. The Treaty of 1950 between Canada and the United States concerning the uses of waters of the Ni- agara River was signed on February 27, 1950. By its provisions, limitations on the diversions of Niagara River water for power in accordance with Article V of the Treaty of 1909 are terminated and temporary international agreements for the allocation of waters of the Niagara River for power purposes are replaced. In accordance with provisions of Article VII of the 1950 Treaty, a representative was appointed by each government who, acting jointly, shall ascertain and determine the amounts of water avail- able for the purposes of this treaty, and shall record the same and shall also record the amounts of water used for power diver- sions. By an exchange of notes during January 1955, the two governments officially designated the representatives appointed in conformance with Article VII of the 1950 Treaty as the Interna- tional Niagara Committee. With regard to flows and diversions, the Treaty of 1950 became effective October 10, 1950. Under terms of the treaty, all waters in excess of certain minimum flows which are required to maintain the scenic spectacle at Niagara Falls are available for diversion for power and, with the excep- tion of the 5,000 cubic feet per second authorized October 1940 for diversion by Canada, are to be allocated equally between both countries. Minimum flows over the Falls shall be not less than 100,000 cubic feet per second between 8 a.m. and 10 p.m. EST MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS 1717 from April 1 to September 15, and 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. from September 16 to October 31. At all other times the flow over the Falls shall be not less than 50,000 cubic feet per second. A brief history re- Rarding the measurement and supervision of diversion of waters from the Niagara River prior to the designation of the representa- tives appointed under Article VII of the 1950 Treaty as the Inter- iational Niagara Committee is included in the Annual Report for 1955. Members of the Committee for fiscal year. The Committee con- sists of two members, one representing Canada and one represent- ing the United States. Canadian representative was Mr. T. M. Patterson, Special Advisor to Assistant Deputy Minister (Water), Department of Energy, Mines and Resources, Ottawa, and the United States representative, ex-officio, was the Division Engineer, U.S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, Corps of Engineers. Brigadier General Roy T. Dodge was Division Engineer during fiscal year 1967. Operations during fiscal year. The Committee received daily reports of operation of the hydro-electric generating stations on the Niagara River which diverted water from the river above the Falls, and the DeCew Falls Plant, which diverts water from Lake Erie through the Welland Canal. These reports, submitted in the form prescribed by the Committee and showing for each hour the quantities of water diverted by each plant, were checked by the Committee. Monthly and annual summaries were prepared. The Committee included with each monthly summary an explanation of any treaty violation which may have occurred during the month. Bi-weekly and intermittent inspections of all plants were made by representatives of the Committee jointly and individually to obtain independent watt meter readings of power output. Rec- ords of water levels in the Niagara River above and below the Falls were obtained by means of self-registering gages. INTERNATIONAL LAKE SUPERIOR BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board, established in pursuance of orders issued by the International Joint Commission May 26 and 27, 1914, is charged with the supervision of the operations of all compensating works and all power canals and appurtenances with a view to so controlling the outflow from Lake Superior as to maintain its level as nearly as may be between elevationsQuebec600.5 and 602.0 feet above mean water level at Father Point, 9 5 5 ) and to so controlling (International Great Lakes Datum-1 the outflow as to prevent the level of the St. Marys River below the locks from exceeding elevation 582.9. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Members of the Board were: Mr. T. M. Patterson, Special Advisor to Assistant Deputy Minister (Water), Department of Energy, Mines and Resources, for Canada; and the Division Engineer, U.S. Army Engineer Divi- sion, North Central, ex-officio, for the United States. Brigadier General Roy T. Dodge was Division Engineer during fiscal year 1967. Operations during fiscal year. The Board kept in touch during the year with conditions pertaining to the regulation of Lake 1718 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY, 1967 Superior through representatives of Canada and the United States on the ground and by means of regular and systematic reports of the water levels on Lake Superior, in the St. Marys River above, and below the Sault Locks, and on Lake Huron. Records of dis- charge at Sault Ste. Marie through the rapids, navigation canals and power plants were also systematically reported to the Board. Changes in the rate of outflow from Lake Superior are directed bY the Board as indicated by the rule curve currently in use. During the past year the Board has continued the use of the modified plan of operation under the rule of 1949 for the regulation of Lake Superior. In recent years in recognition of the deficient supply situation in the Great Lakes area and of the relatively higher level of Lake Superior with respect to low water datum than Lakes Michigan and Huron, the Board, with the approval of the Inter- national Joint Commission, has allowed a higher outflow froln Lake Superior than that provided for by the plan of regulation. However, water level conditions on the Great Lakes were more favorable during the reporting period and rule curve outflows, without deviation, based on the recorded monthly level were utilized. A joint inspection of the compensating works was made on August 31, 1966 by the Canadian and U.S. Members of the Board. On the Canadian side, the painting of sections of two gates was completed. The Great Lakes Power Company was again requested to institute repairs to the masonry pier noses which are showing evidence of erosion damage and deterioration of the point- ing. An extensive program of sandblasting, priming and painting of all gates and superstructure was carried out on the U.S. portion of the compensating works. LAKE OF THE WOODS WATERSHED The members of International Lake of the Woods Control Board, the International Rainy Lake Board of Control and the International Prairie Portage Board of Control for fiscal year were Mr. J.

INTERNATIONAL LAKE OF THE WOODS CONTROL BOARD The Convention between the United States and Great Britain proclaimed July 17, 1925, provides for the regulation of the level of the Lake of the Woods in order to secure to the inhabitants of the United States and Canada the most advantageous use of the waters thereof, and of the waters flowing into and from the lake on each side of the boundary between the two countries. The Convention also provides for the establishment and maintenance of a Canadian Lake of the Woods Control Board to regulate and control outflow of waters of the Lake, and for establishment and maintenance of an International Lake of the Woods Control Board, composed of two engineers, one representing the United States and the other representing Canada, to whose approval the rate of total discharge shall be subject whenever the elevation rises above elevation 1061 or falls below elevation 1056, sea level datum. Operations during fiscal year. Supervision was maintained to insure that every effort was being made to comply with the pro- CIVIL WORKS 1719 MISCELLANEOUS Visions of the Convention. The U.S. member of the Board and an engineer of his staff attended the May 1967 meetings of the Canadian Lake of the Woods Control Board. The Board mem- bers and three engineers on ther staffs met with resort owners and other interested persons at Baudette, Minnesota in March 1967 to discuss levels on Lake of the Woods. OF CONTROL INTERNATIONAL RAINY LAKE BOARD ratified The Convention between the United States and Canada, by U.S. Senate August 30, 1940, provides in part that: "The In- ternational Joint Commission * * * is hereby clothed with power to determine when emergency conditions exist in the Rainy Lake Watershed, in the event the Commission shall determine that such emergency conditions exist." On June 8, 1949, the Commission issued an order to the owners of dams at outlets of Namakan Lake and Rainy Lake, which provided for a method of regulation as recommended by International Rainy Lake Board of Control. Order provides for certain levels during the various seasons of the year as well as control of outflows, with view to securing most advantageous use of water in total to the various interests. A supplementary order dated October 1, 1957, modified regulations for Namakan Lake to provide for some variation in operation based on anticipated spring runoff. This supplementary order Was extended for an additional 5 years to October 30, 1967, by action of the International Joint Commission on October 2, 1962. Operations during fiscal year. Basic data were compiled and engineering reports were submitted to the Commission. The mem- bers of the Board with members of ther staffs met with resort and other property owners at International Falls in March 1967 to discuss existing water level of Rainy Lake and the Namakan Chain of Lakes. BOARD OF CONTROL INTERNATIONAL PRAIRIE PORTAGE Prairie Portage Board of Control was formed by International Joint Commission for purpose of furnishing it with technical ad- vice regarding, suitability of dam structure at Prairie Portage, Lake County, Minn. After approval of plans by Department of the Army and International Joint Commission, the Board was retained to advise the Commission further regarding progress of construction and any other matters which might arise con- cerning this project. U.S. Forest Service constructed a cofferdam before World War II but postponed work on the project during the war. Work has not been resumed except that repairs have been made to cofferdam from time to time, as needed, to maintain stages on chain of lakes above.
