Entrance channel 8 feet deep, 90 feet wide and an anchorage area 7 feet deep for an area of about 18 acres in the inner harbor were completed in July 1960. Section 107 project for construction of 6-foot anchorage areas was completed in April 1968. Rock was encountered and survey of the area has been completed. Commonwealth of Massachusetts has provided an 8-foot channel, a 6-foot anchorage basin, and an 800-foot breakwater. 6. CONNECTICUT RIVER BELOW HARTFORD, CONN. 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 Geotetic Survey Charts 215, 266, 267.) Previous project. For details see Annual Reports for 1915 and 1938. Eightmile River, Conn., elimination as separate project: Provides 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. Aforementioned 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 Hamburg; 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 1-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 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 is 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. Dredging 6-foot channel, turning basin, and an'chorage area at Hamburg to 6 feet deep, about 6.5 acres in area in Eightmile River portion of project is considered inactive and excluded from foregoing estimate. Estimated Federal cost of this portion (1956) is $57,000. Major rehabilitation 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.

FLOOD CONTROL RESERVOIR OPERATIONS A coordinated system of reservoirs, many of which are multi-purpose in nature and all containing significant amounts of storage for flood control purposes, has been established in five major flood producing basins in New England. During periods of flood flows, regulation of reservoirs is fully coordinated within each basin dependent upon its location in the watershed, its available storage capacity and origin of flood. In addition to flood control releases, water supply and flow augmentation releases were made from selected reservoirs. Regulation of an appreciable nature during the fiscal year was as follows: Blackstone River Basin. The West Hill reservoir was regulated in March 1972, resulting in 27 percent of storage being utilized. Connecticut River Basin. During the month of April 1972, Surry Mountain, Otter Brook, Birch Hill, Tully, Littleville, Knightville and Colebrook reservoirs utilized storage ranging from 12 to 35 percent. In May 1972, Union Village, North Hartland, North Springfield, Ball Mountain and Townshend were regulated with 14 to 35 percent of flood control storage utilized. In addition releases for white water canoeing occurred at Ball Mountain during October 1971 and May 1972. Water supply and fishing releases were discharged from Colebrook River Reservoir. Housatonic River Basin. All 6 reservoirs in the Naugatuck watershed, namely East Branch, Hall Meadow, Thomaston, Northfield Brook, Black Rock, Hancock Brook and Hop Brook, stored flood waters on three occasions with storages ranging from 6 to 17 percent. Merrimack River Basin. During April 1972 MacDowell was continuously regulated and utilized up to 22 percent of storage capacity. The Hopkinton-Everett complex stored about 4 percent. In May 1972 Franklin Falls stored 10 percent and Blackwater 7 percent. Thames River Basin. There were significant flood control operations at all of the six reservoirs, namely Hodges Village, Buffumville, East Brimfield, Westville, West Thompson and Mansfield Hollow, during March 1972 with storages ranging from 13 to 35 percent. 60. HURRICANE BARRIER OPERATIONS Four hurricane barriers, located along the southern coast of New England, protect coastal communities from tidal flooding associated with hurricanes or severe coastal storms. The Corps operates the navigational elements of the Stamford, Conn. and New Bedford-Fairhaven, Mass. barriers The Fox Point, R.I. and Pawcatuck, Conn. barriers are operated by the local communities. A brief resume of operations follows: Stamford Barrier. The barrier gate was closed on 24 occasions, all due to coastal storms. The maximum ocean tide rose to 9.0 feet msl. New Bedford-Fairhaven Barrier. The barrier gates were closed on 17 occasions, all due to 1-48 NEW ENGLAND DIVISION coastal storms. The maximum ocean tide rose to 5.3 feet msl. Fox Point and Pawcatuck Barriers. Neither of these barriers were operated during the fiscal year. 61. OTHER AUTHORIZED FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS (See Table 1-N at end of chapter.) 62.

SUPERVISION OF NEW YORK HARBOR (Prevention of Obstructive and Injurious Deposits) The District Engineer, New York District, was designated Supervisor of New York Harbor by the River and Harbor Act of June 29, 1888 (33 U.S.C. 441-451), as amended July 12, 1952. Under this act, the Supervisor of New York Harbor is charged with the mission of preventing the deposit of obstructive and injurious materials in New York Harbor and its adjacent and tributary waters, including Long Island Sound. The Supervisor of New York Harbor is also responsible for enforcing River and Harbor Act of August 18, 1894 (33 U.S.C. 452) which makes it unlawful for any person or persons to engage in fishing or dredging for shellfish in any of the channels leading to and from New York Harbor, or to interfere in any way with the safe navigation of those channels by ocean steamships and ships of deep draft. River and Harbor Act of March 3, 1899 (33 U.S.C. 403, 407,409), commonly known as the Refuse Act, applies to all navigable waters of the United States. This statute is used for enforcement purposes by the New York District Engineer on waterway violations not within the scope of the act of 1888 or on violations that occur within his area of jurisdiction outside of New York Harbor and Long Island Sound. The waters under the jurisdiction of the Supervisor of New York Harbor include New York Harbor and its tributaries, Raritan River, Arthur Kill, Newark Bay, Hackensack and Passaic Rivers, Kill Van Kull, Hudson River and its tidal tributaries, Harlem River and Long Island Sound. Enforcement of the act of 1888 minL ong Island Sound is limited to the Sound itself, ending at lines drawn between the headlands of the many inlets and harbors along its shores. The Supervisor of the Harbor, in his capacity as District Engineer, may apprehend violators of antipollution laws under authority of the Act of 2-23 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 March 3, 1899 when violations occur in the inland tributary waters of Long Island Sound. The navigable waters of the Hudson River extending north from Troy, New York to New York District boundary line at the Canadian border are under the jurisdiction of the District Engineer. Patrol boats are used to accomplish inspections of waterways. One boat operates in Lower New York Bay and another in Long Island Sound to ensure that vessels deposit dredged or other types of waste material in the dumping areas specified in permits issued by the Supervisor of New York Harbor. These vessels also patrol the entrance channels to keep them clear of interference by fishing craft or other boats in order to ensure safe navigation of deep-draft vessels. One other vessel patrols Upper New York Bay and the inner waters, such as Hudson River, East River, Kill Van Kull, Arthur Kill, Passaic and Hackensack Rivers, to prevent the illegal deposit of cellar dirt, ashes, industrial waste or any other refuse into the navigable waters or on the beach or shore areas where it may be subject to tidal action. Inspections of shorefront facilities are conducted by inspectors utilizing Government vehicles equipped with two-way radios to ensure that industrial waste or refuse is not being discharged or deposited into the navigable waters. These inspectors operate out of various field offices located at Jersey City, New Jersey, Fort Totten in Bayside, New York, Fort Tilden at Rockaway, New York, and offices in Kingston and Troy, New York.

Authorization initially provided for three dredging operations over a period of 10 years, but was reduced to two, based on subsequently authorized project modification for sand bypassing facilities and on limited reduction of channel maintenance costs of navigation project. For first increment, based on cost sharing provisions of Public Law 727, 79th Congress, pertinent to beach erosion control benefits, Federal participation was authorized to extent of one-third of costs allocated to beach erosion control feature and entire cost allocated to navigation feature, a total of 42 percent for first increment. Based on provisions of 1962 River and Harbor Act enacted after completion of first increment, which modified Federal participation to extent of one-half of costs allocated to beach erosion control feature, and on deletion of navigation benefits based on maintenance experience, Federal share of second increment was evaluated at 67.9 percent. Project, as modified, provides for combined beach erosion control and navigation improvements comprising a 1,000-foot extension of existing jetty, a littoral reservoir with a capacity of 1,200,000 cubic yards west of jetty, a navigation channel 28 feet deep and 500 feet wide leading from the littoral reservoir to a deposition reservoir inside the inlet with a capacity of 2 million cubic yards, and other appurtenant works including jetty modifications to permit fishermen use, and dikes. Estimated Federal share of participation is 66.1 percent of the first cost of project modification. Periodic transfer of littoral drift involving the bypassing of 1,200,000 cubic yards of sand on the average of once every 2 years to a feeder beach over the economic life of the project, serving both maintenance of navigation channel and nourishment of beaches westerly of the inlet, is included in annual maintenance. Mean range of tide is 4.1 feet. Total estimated Federal cost of new work is $23,946,767 (July 1972), of which $2,646,767 is for work authorized by 1958 River and Harbor Act, and $21,- 300,000 for modification authorized by 1962 River and Harbor Act. Project documents contain latest published maps. (See Table 2-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. River and Harbor Act of 1958 provides local interests obtain approval by Chief of Engineers, before starting work on any feature of project, of detailed plans and specifications and arrangements for prosecuting work on that feature; provide lands, and rights-of-way; hold the United States free from damages; assure that water pollution that would endanger health of bathers will not be permitted; assure maintenance of recommended project during its useful life as may be required to insure realization of anticipated benefits; and assure continued public ownership of the shore and its administration for public use during economic life of project. Long Island State Park Commission of State of New York, the cooperating agency, entered into an agreement with United States August 21, 1958, as modified November 18, 1959, and February 1, 1962, in which the agency adopted plan of improvement for beach erosion control authorized by Congress and agreed to furnish its share of cost, and comply with all other requirements of local cooperation. By letter dated October 7, 1958, cooperating agency requested United States to undertake and supervise construction of first increment of work. First modification to agreement enabled construction by Federal Government of a sand closure across gorge channel which was completed in 1960 at a cost of $364,000 from funds furnished by cooperating agency (contributed funds-other). Second modification enabled delineation of sand closure as a part of authorized project in accordance with Public Works Appropriation Act, 1962, which included $152,880 (42 percent of $364,000) specifically for repayment of Federal share of cost. Unused contributed funds, surplus to needs of first increment, were returned May 17, 1962. Second dredging operation was financially complete April 30, 1966, and unused required contributed funds were returned July 7, 1966. In addition to assurances similar to those cited for the work under the 1958 act, local interests, for 2-25 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 the work under the 1962 act, must provide and maintain a parking lot with adequate sanitary facilities as may be required for recreational fishermen use of the jetty extension; and contribute about 33.9 percent of total first cost, 32.1 percent of periodic dredging cost allocated to beach erosion control for beach nourishment, and 9.8 percent of maintenance cost. Off-project fishing facilities are a non-Federal responsibility. Total estimated cost of local cooperation to be provided by local interests is $16,172,835 (July 1972) for new work, of which $2,272,835 (cash contribution) is for work authorized by the 1958 act; and $13,900,000 the 1962 act, of which $13,880,000 is cash contribution and $20,000 is other non-Federal costs for off-project facilities; exclusive of shares of annual periodic dredging and maintenance costs. Operations and results during fiscal year. Alternative dredging plans submitted July 16, 1971. Authority to award first contract for dredging in rehandling basin was granted. New York State's November 5, 1971 letter said non-Federal funds would not be available in the foreseeable future. Fiscal year cost was $6,143 for advanced engineering and design. Condition at end of fiscal year. Under the 1958 Act, the first dredging operation is complete at a cost of $1,124,826 exclusive of $1,553,331 required contributed funds. Second dredging operation is complete at a cost of $1,521,941, exclusive of $719,504 required contributed funds. Engineering and design for work under the 1962 act initiated in April 1965 is about 43 percent complete. Model test by Waterways Experiment Station was completed and report submitted November 1969. Design Memorandum was submitted to Chief of Engineers September 1971 and was approved February 1971 subject to comments, which were submitted April 1971. Advance plans and specifications submitted April 1971. The Environmental Statement was submitted to the Council of Environmental Quality April 16, 1971. Planning suspended until State is able to furnish assurance of local cooperation. 37. OTHER AUTHORIZED BEACH EROSION CONTROL PROJECTS (See Table 2-H at end of chapter.) 38. BEACH EROSION CONTROL WORK UNDER SPECIAL AUTHORIZATION Beach Erosion Control activities pursuant to Section 103 Public Law 826, 84th Congress as amended (preauthorization) Fiscal year cost for preauthorization studies were $35,938 on Glen Cove, N.Y. and $4,273 on Neptune City, N.J. to start Detailed Project Reports. Flanders Bay, N.Y. was completed with closing of account-revoked $393. Flood Control 39. BENNINGTON, HOOSIC RIVER BASIN, VT. Location. Hoosic River rises in northwestern Massachusetts, flows generally north and northwest, crossing southwest corner of Vermont to vicinity of Eagles Bridge, N. Y., where it turns west and joins the Hudson River about 16 miles above Troy, N. Y. It is 66 miles long with a drainage area of 713 square miles. Bennington, Vt., is at junction of Wallomsac River and Roaring Branch, about 15 miles southeast of junction of Walloomsac River with Hoosic River at North Hoosic, N. Y. (See Geological Survey map covering Bennington, Vt., quadrangle.) Existing project. Provides for channel excavation, about 10,500 feet of cribwall, and levee construction along the Roaring Branch extending from about 2,000 feet below the Brooklyn Bridge to about 3,500 feet above, with a concrete diversion structure at the head of a canal. Previously "inactive" due to limited support by local interests for construction, the project was reclassified to "deferred for restudy" January 18, 1965, based on the reported gradual erosion of left bank of Roaring Branch which local interests considered a serious threat of flooding. Resulting from the "restudy" (feasibility study report) started December 1965 and completed March 1966, the portion of the project on the left bank of the Roaring Branch, generally between Branch and Park Streets, was reclassified from "deferred" to "active" on May 27, 1966. The improvement provides for constructing about 272 feet of floodwall, 3,437 feet of levee and appurtenant drainage facilities. The estimated Federal cost for new work is $165,000 (July 1972), exclusive of land and other work to be provided by local interests estimated at $37,000. The remaining portion of the authorized project consisting mainly of channel clearing and construction of concrete cribwalls along Roaring Branch, at an estimated Federal cost of $1,840,000 (July 1964) and estimated non-Federal cost of $30,000 for lands and other work to be provided by local interests was reclassified from the "deferred" to the "inactive" category on May 27, 1966. (See Table 2-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. In addition to the usual requirements for local cooperation as provided by law, local interests must give assurances that 2-26 NEW YORK, N.Y., DISTRICT they will insure against future encroachments upon the flood channels to be provided by the improvements. Assurances of local cooperation were executed by the chairman of the Board of Selectmen, Town of Bennington, Vt. and accepted for the United States by the District Engineer on 30 April 1970. Operations and results during fiscal year. Construction was completed. Final inspection was made with City and State personnel on November 3, 1971. Project accepted by Town Manager on November 10, 1971. Final coordinated Environmental Impact Statement was completed. As-built drawings prepared and sent to Town. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction completed. Project accepted by Town Manager. As-builts prepared. Preparation of Operation and Maintenance Manual remains. 40. EAST ROCKAWAY INLET TO ROCKAWAY INLET & JAMAICA BAY, N.Y. Location. Atlantic coast of New York City, between East Rockaway and Rockaway Inlets, and the lands within and surrounding Jamaica Bay. The coastal area (about 10 miles long) is a peninsula in Queens County separating the ocean and the bay. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 70, 369, 542, 579, 1000, 1108, and 1215.) Existing project. The multi-purpose improvement provides for a hurricane barrier, 4,530 feet long, across entrance to Jamaica Bay with a 600-foot navigation opening and two 150-foot gates which would partially close the opening to 300 feet; dikes and levees, 1.2 miles long to high ground north from the barrier and dikes, levees, and floodwalls, 7.7 miles long, south and east from the barrier to and along the oceanfront to high ground at eastern end of Rockaway peninsula; fill placement along the 6-mile oceanfront floodwall with a berm 100 to 200 feet wide at 10.0 feet above mean sea level; and stoplog structures, stairways, ramps, road raising, and other appurtenant works, including fishing platforms on hurricane barrier. Project includes Federal participation (50 percent) in cost of periodic beach nourishment of the shore protection works for 10 years after completion of the initial beach fill. Estimated Federal cost is $48,640,000 for construction (which represents 68 percent of total first cost of project reduced by amount of local cash contribution presently estimated at $5,- 590,000 for the barrier, its gates and fishing platforms, equivalent to the present worth of the annual cost of maintenance, operation, and major replacements by the United States), and $358,000 annually for periodic nourishment for 10 years, a total of $55,800,000 (July 1972). Maintenance, operation and major replacements of the barrier, its gates and fishing platforms would be a Federal responsibility. Estimated non-Federal cost is $32,830,000 (representing 32 percent of total first cost of project) consisting of $200,000 for lands and alterations and relocations of structures, and a cash contribution of $32,630,000 including a cash contribution of $5,590,000 for the barrier, its gates and fishing platforms; and $487,000 annually for periodic nourishment for first 10-year period; a total of $37,700,000 exlusive of annual maintenance and operation costs for the project (except the barrier, its gates and fishing platforms), and of the annual cost of periodic nourishment after the initial 10 year period. (See Table 2-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. Local interests must provide lands and rights-of-way, including borrow areas; alter and relocate buildings, streets, storm drains, utilities, and other structures; bear 32.0 percent of total first cost presently estimated at $32,- 830,000 consisting of $200,000 for items listed above, and a cash contribution of $27,040,000 the final apportionment of cost to be made after actual costs and values have been determined; provide an additional cash contribution for the barrier, its gates and fishing platforms, equivalent to the present worth of the annual cost of maintenance, operation, and major replacements by the United States, presently estimated at $5,- 590,000 subject to adjustment based on detailed design of project features, to be paid in a lump sum before starting construction; hold the United States free from damages; maintain, during economic life of project, continued public ownership and use of non-Federal publicly owned shores upon which Federal participation in beach protection is based; maintain and operate all works after completion, except the barrier, its gates, and fishing platforms, and provide periodic nourishment during the economic life of the hurricane and shore protection works, as may be required to serve the intended purpose, subject to Federal participation in cost of periodic nourishment of shore protection works for an initial period of 10 years; control water pollution to the extent necessary to safeguard the health of bathers; and at least annually inform interests affected that hurricane improvements will not provide substantial protection against hurricane and storm tide levels higher than about 3 feet above the elevation of Hurricane Donna of September 12, 1960. State of New York Water Resources Commission stated that the State would cooperate in meeting requirements subject to final development of a soundly engineered and economically feasible plan and cooperation from local municipalities. 2-27 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Operations and results during fiscal year.

Location. That portion of Atlantic Coast of Long Island in Suffolk County extending from Fire Island Inlet easterly to Montauk Point, N.Y. - about 83 miles long. This frontage, comprises about 70 percent of total ocean frontage of Long 2-28 NEW YORK, N.Y., DISTRICT Island. Fire Island Inlet is about 50 miles by water east of the Battery, New York City. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 362, 578, 1212 and 1214.) Existing project. Provides for Federal participation in improvement to prevent beach erosion and hurricane damages by: widening beaches along developed areas between Kismet and Mecox Bay to a minimum width of 100 feet at elevation 14 feet above mean sea level; raising dunes to an elevation of 16 feet above mean sea level from Fire Island Inlet to Hither Hills State Park, at Montauk and opposite Lake Montauk Harbor; planting grass on dunes; constructing gated interior drainage structures at Mecox Bay, Sagaponack Lake, and Georgica Pond; constructing not to exceed 50 groins, if needed; and Federal participation in cost of beach nourishment for not to exceed 10 years from year of completion of a useful nourishment unit. Total estimated Federal cost is $49,300,000 (July 1972) which includes participation in periodic beach nourishment for 10 years at $51,000 annually. Total estimated non-Federal cost for all requirements of local cooperation is $49,400,000 (July 1972), inclusive of $40,360,000 cash contribution by local interests. Project cost estimate reflects revised cost sharing provisions of 1962 River and Harbor Act. Evaluation increased Federal participation from about 51 percent to about 53 percent of first cost of project construction, excluding annual nourishment costs. Local cooperation. River and Harbor Act of 1960 provides that before starting construction, local interests give assurances they will (a) provide lands, rights-of-way, including borrow areas, for construction; (b) make alterations and relocations of buildings, streets, storm drains, utiltities, and other structures made necessary by construction; (c) bear 47 percent of total first cost, estimated at $43,870,000, to consist of items listed in (a) and (b) above and a cash contribution estimated at $40,360,000, or, if any section is undertaken separately apportionment of first cost will be as shown in District Engineer's report, with due regard to change in public use and ownership and other changes before construction; provided that cash contribution be paid either in a lump sum before starting entire project, or in installments before starting pertinent items, in accordance with construction schedules as required by Chief of Engineers, final apportionment of cost to be made after actual costs and values have been determined; (d) hold the United States free from damages; (e) maintain all works and undertake periodic beach nourishment after completion, except that for 10 years after completion of a useful nourishment unit Federal Government would contribute, dependent on conditions of public use and ownership and other changes at time of construction an amount for entire project now estimated at $51,000 annually; (f) maintain during economic life of project continued public ownership of non-Federal publicly owned shores and continued availability for public use of privately owned shore equivalent to that upon which recommended Federal participation is based; (g) adopt appropriate ordinances to provide for preservation of dunes and their protective vegetation; (h) control water pollution to extent necessary to safeguard health of bathers; (i) obtain approval of Chief of Engineers of detailed plans and specifications for work contemplated and arrangements for its prosecution before starting any work on beach protection phase of project for which Federal participation is planned, if undertaken separately from recommended combined project; and (j) contribute in cash toward cost of hurricane protection works constructed under this plan, in addition to apportionment required in (c) above, an amount equal to increased Federal cost resulting from separate construction of beach protection work referred to in (i) above. Responsible agency is State of New York. On July 30, 1963, the State reflecting the desires of Suffolk County, requested the inclusion of a minimum of 13 groins in initial construction of Moriches- Shinnecock reach. Chief of Engineers concurred in inclusion of up to 13 groins. Assurances were executed by Superintendent of Public Works, State of New York, on August 14 and accepted by the District Engineer August 20, 1963. On February 5, 1964, the State requested consideration of a plan, as proposed by Suffolk County, for initial construction of 13 groins of which 11 would be in the Moriches-Shinnecock reach, and 2 in the Southampton-Beach Hampton reach in vicinity of Georgica Pond; and that sandfill and dune construction be withheld for the present except for 1 mile on each side of Shinnecock Inlet. On February 27, 1964, the Chief of Engineers accepted the proposals, in part, and supplemental assurances were executed by State of New York on April 20, 1964, and accepted by District Engineer April 27, 1964, as follows: the State of New York now elects to proceed with authorized combined beach erosion control and hurricane protection project for South Shore of Long Island; that Superintendent of Public Works hereby reaffirms his assurance of August 14, 1963, relative to complete project; that State of New York, as cooperating agency, will now agree that artificial fills will be added when and to extent found necessary by the Chief of Engineers, but not earlier than 3 years after completion of groins unless both the State of New York and the Chief of Engineers mutually 2-29 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 agree to an earlier placement; that the superintendant agrees for State of New York to contribute the full amount of any increase in Federal costs resulting from the separate construction of the groins and subsequent fill; and that the State agree that construction of the two groins in the Georgica Pond area will depend on a favorable finding, following a study by the Chief of Engineers. Study was completed July 31, 1964, recommending construction, and approved by the Chief of Engineers on September 22, 1964. By letter dated November 5, 1964, the New York State Department of Public Works confirmed that title to all properties and interests in properties necessary for constructing the 11 groins was fully vested in Suffolk County. By letter dated December 7, 1964, the Department stated that the county had obtained easements or fee title for the parcels necessary for constructing the two groins. New York State Department of Public Works furnished $844,600 and $830,330 required contributed funds October 30, 1964, and September 7, 1965, respectively, for construction of 11 groins in Moriches-Shinnecock reach, and $439,900 on January 22, 1965, for construction of 2 groins in Georgica Pond area of the Southampton- Beach Hampton reach. The completed 2 groins and 11 groins were accepted by the New York State Department of Public Works for maintenance on May 11, 1966 and April 10, 1967, respectively. On March 22, 1965, the State recommended that planning priority be in the order: Southampton- Beach Hampton (drainage structures first); Shinnecock Inlet-Southampton; Beach Hampton-Montauk Point; and Fire Island Inlet- Moriches Inlet. Planning on the drainage structures was initiated but was suspended, based on: meeting of October 28, 1965 with the Georgica Pond Association and the Preservation Society of East End wherein concern was indicated regarding the effects of the proposed drainage structure on ecology, salinity, pond level and aesthetic values; meeting with Congressional representatives, State legislators, Federal agencies and local officials held on May 26, 1966; and resolution of the Suffolk County Board of Supervisors adopted June 13, 1966 requesting advancement of the planning of the Fire Island Inlet-Moriches Inlet reach (Fire Island National Seashore). On June 16, 1967, the New York State Department of Public Works requested that the following work be undertaken as immediate priority items: in Moriches-Shinnecock Reach, beach and dune fill at 11 groins site, construction of four groins west of the completed 11 groins, beach and dune fill east of the 11 groins; in Southampton-Beach Hampton reach (at East Hampton), construction of two additional groins, and the outlet structure at Georgica Pond. On March 18, 1968 the Suffolk County Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution supporting construction of 4 groins in Reach 2 (Moriches - Shinnecock) and 2 groins in Reach 4 (Southampton - Beach Hampton). On April 22, 1968 the Board adopted a more inclusive resolution authorizing participation in beach erosion and hurricane protection for the Moriches- Shinnecock reach and in the Georgica Pond area of the Southampton-Beach Hampton reach. On December 24, 1968, the Commissioner of the New York State Conservation Department executed the second supplement to the assurances of local cooperation, which was accepted by the District Engineer on January 24, 1969. This reaffirmed previous assurances contained provisions for constructing four additional groins In an area extending 6,000 feet west from the most westerly groin in the existing eleven-groin field in the Moriches Inlet to Shinnecock Inlet Reach, and for placing beach and dune fill in this area to the full design cross section as defined in the authorized project report, except for the portion of the dune between mean sea level elevation 16 feet and 20 feet. Thus this stage construction established the top of dune to an elevation of 16 feet m.s.l. with a 65 foot width at that elevation and the top of berm to 14 feet m.s.l. with a 100 foot width at that elevation. These assurances also required that the State obtain and provide without cost to the United States all lands, easements, and rights-of-way, to permit entry for the period of construction, and that the necessary rights will be obtained, as required, of lands, easements and rights-of-way, for maintenance and repair of the groins, dunes, and berms, and to insure the integrity of the completed structure. (See Table 2-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Operations and results during fiscal year. Coordination with State and local interests continued. Design in Reach 2 for six groins and placement of dunes and beachfill extending westward about 9,000 feet from the present Westhampton Beach construction site was delayed pending resolution of the revised cost sharing authorized by the 1970 Flood Control Act. Condition at end of fiscal year. Engineering and design began November 1962 and is about 32 percent complete. Project construction commenced January 18, 1965 and is about 7 percent complete. Two groins in Reach 4: Southampton-Beach Hampton, Section 3, were initiated in March, and completed in September 1965, at a total cost of $592,418 of which $439,- 000 were incurred against required contributed funds. Eleven groins in Reach 2: Moriches- Shinnecock, Section 2, were initiated in January 1965, and completed in October 1966 at a total 2-30 NEW YORK, N.Y., DISTRICT cost of $2,854,565 of which $1,370,191 were incurred against required contributed funds. Initial beach fill placement for 750,000 cubic yards in Reach 2, Section 1A was completed on May 23, 1969. On August 4, 1969 work started on 4 groins and sandfill in Reach 2, Section lA and was completed November 14, 1970. 3,083 tons of stone and 1,111,000 cubic yards of sand were placed. Total cost for all Section lA was $3,- 212,211 including $1,570,771 required contributed funds. Completion of engineering and design, and construction of the remainder of the project remain. 43. HERKIMER, MOHAWK RIVER, N.Y. Location. Mohawk River rises in west-central New York and flows generally southeasterly to Hudson River at Waterford and Cohoes, N.Y. It is 155 miles long and has a drainage area of 3,- 462 square miles. Village of Herkimer, N.Y., is on left bank to 86 miles above the mouth, where West Canada Creek enters the Mohawk. (Map references: Geological Survey, Herkimer quadrangle; Army Map Service, series V821, sheet 6070 111 S.W.) Existing project. Protection for village of Herkimer provides for a blanket levee along railroad spur parallel to West Canada Creek for 1,535 feet, with two closure levees for 650 and 830 feet, respectively; levees along Mohawk River for 4,530 feet, with a gravel blanket along New York State Thruway embankment for 1,100 feet; a levee on left bank of Bellinger Brook for 2,310 feet; a sluice gate structure at intersection of levee and existing hydraulic canal, and interior drainage facilities including a pumping station. Federal cost for new work is $1,301,275 (July 1970), exclusive of land and other work to be provided by local interests at an estimated cost of 196,000. Local cooperation. Local interests must provide lands and rights-of-way for construction; perform all necessary reconstruction or alteration of highway bridges and street and utility changes; hold the United States free from damages; and maintain and operate completed works. Responsible agency is State of New York. General assurances of local cooperation were executed by the State in December 1961. In May 1962, assurances were received from the State that all lands, easements and rights-of-entry for construction of project had been obtained. New York State Conservation Department, July 15, 1968 letter requested that work on hydraulic canal be made part of Federal contract for West Canada Creek. New York State forwarded $45,- 000 on February 7, 1969. (See Table 2-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Operations and results during fiscal year. Started revising plans for non-Federal portion of project. Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project was commenced June 1962 and completed April 1964. The State accepted the project for operation and maintenance on September 30, 1964. Plans for non-Federal portion were completed and coordinated with State. Per State's request, plans are being revised. 44. NORTH ELLENVILLE, N.Y. Location.

On March 15, 1972 the EOP presented a talk in Rutland Vt. to the Vermont Chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineers outlining the Corps of Engineers responsibilities during "Operation Foresight" activities. Under Emergency Operations the District operated Emergency operations centers during floods and other major disasters. Snow reconnaissance surveys were made in New York and Vermont in February and March 1972 but no "Foresight" conditions were observed. Annual inspections of completed local protection projects in Vermont, Massachusetts and New York were made in September and October 1971. 110,000 sandbags were purchased during Fiscal Year 1972 for storage at the Caven Point, N.J. and Albany, N.J. Field Offices and subsequently issued along with existing stocks to various communities during the "DORIA" and "AGNES" floods. An additional 100,000 sandbags were procured from the U.S. First Army Depot in Richmond, Va. during the "AGNES" flood and furnished to ELMIRA, N.Y. A list of critical movable bridges and their characteristics was compiled in the Spring of 1972 for use in response to possible requests for assistance in the event of failure of movable bridges operations during summer power failures. In August - September 1971, heavy rains associated with the "DORIA" tropical storm caused heavy damages in New York District's civil works areas in New Jersey and southeastern New York. The District (at the request of the Office of Emergency Preparedness (OEP) under Public Law 606) conducted initial damage surveys of flood affected localities in these two States. 95 communities in New York and 225 in New Jersey were inspected with Corps recommendations for reimbursement amounting to $1,360,000 and $4,815,000 respectively in each State. 12 civilian personnel from other Corps offices were provided to assist New York District in this initial inspection phase of the program. Area offices were established in the latter part of September 1971 at Trenton, N.J. and New York City, N.Y. and were closed on November 19, 1971. All of the 320 communities initially inspected elected to accomplish the recommended repairs themselves except for the Town and Village of Cornwall, N.Y. At the request of OEP, New York District contracted for and administered the work at the latter town locations. All work was satisfactorily completed on July 8, 1972 at a total contract cost of $47,- 045,000. The final inspection phase of the DORIA program commenced in the 3rd Quarter of Fiscal Year 1972 but was interrupted and temporarily suspended in the last quarter due to the heavy workload required by the "AGNES" flood of June 1972. 30 final inspections were completed by the end of Fiscal Year 1972. About 200 additional final inspections will be required to complete this phase of the work expected early in 1973. In mid June 1972, tropical storm "AGNES" caused major flooding in New York Districts civil works areas, primarily in southeastern New York. The District Emergency Operations Center was activated on June 21, 1972 to provide 24-hour, 7day per week coverage during the height of the emergency. By direction of North Atlantic Division, responsibility for effecting emergency repairs in the Susquehanna River basin in New York (ordinarily under the jurisdiction of the Baltimore District) was temporarily assigned to the New York District. Area offices were established at Elmira (Horseheads), N.Y. on June 24, 1972 and in White Plains, N.Y. on June 26, 1972. Personnel temporarily assigned to New York District from other Corps of Engineers sources consisted of 9 military and 34 civilians at Elmira, N.Y., and 3 military and 3 civilians at White Plains, N.Y. Operations from the White Plains area office from June 26 to 30, 1972 were limited primarily to organizing and scheduling initial damage surveys under Public Law 606 at affected communities in Rockland and Westchester Counties, N.Y. On June 26 the Elmira Area Office awarded its first contract with a value of $100,000 for debris clearance. By the end of the Fiscal Year, 9 debris clearance contracts totalling $670,000 and one pump restoration contract in the amount of $5,000 was awarded. Sandbag distribution to the local interests in New York and 2-38 NEW YORK, N.Y., DISTRICT New Jersey prior to and during the "DORIA" and "AGNES" floods were 29,200 bags to 10 communities in New Jersey and 181,500 bags to 9 communities in New York. Of the latter, 142,- 600 sandbags were furnished to the heavily damaged city of Elmira, N.Y. 57. SURVEYS (See Table 2-J at end of chapter.) 58.

ABSECON INLET, N. J. Location. On New Jersey coast about 65 miles north of Delaware breakwater, between Brigantine Beach on the north and Absecon Beach on the south. It forms entrance to harbor at Atlantic City, N. J. (See U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 826 and 1217.) Previous project. For details see Annual Report for 1936, page 319. Existing project. This provides for an inlet entrance channel 20 feet deep at mean low water and 400 feet wide, for an entrance channel 15 feet deep and 200 feet wide from the inlet channel into Clam Creek, and for a turning basin 15 feet deep within Clam Creek. The act authorizing the inlet entrance channel also provides that should the channel at any time have a deleterious effect on the Atlantic City Beach, work upon the improvement may cease; it being understood that the project is adopted on the basis that the interests of the beach in front of the city are superior to those of the inlet. The total length of the section included in the project is about 1.5 miles. The mean tidal range in the ocean is 4 feet and at the inlet gorge 3.6 feet. The extreme tidal range, due to ocean storms is about 11 feet. The cost for the completed project was $307,- 712. (See Table 3-B at end of chapter for Acts authorizing existing project.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with except that local interests are required to furnish suitable spoil-disposal areas for maintenance when and as required for the dredging of the entrance channel into Clam Creek and the turning basin within Clam Creek. Terminal Facilities. See pages 239 and 240 of Annual Report for 1962. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance, hired labor: U.S. Hopper Dredge. Dredging the entrance channel commenced July 10, 1971 and was completed August 3, 1971. Dredging was performed again from April 1 to 15, 1972. Removed a total of 265,264 cubic yards of material at a cost of $203,781. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project was completed May 1957. Inlet channel was completed in 1938. Dredging entrance from inlet channel into Clam Creek was completed in 1957. Costs for existing project were $307,712 for new work and $4,380,995 for maintenance, a total of $4,688,707. 2. AQUATIC PLANT CONTROL Location. Includes those waters within geographic limits of Philadelphia District excessively infested with sea lettuce, eel grass, Eurasion water milfoil, filomentous algae or other obnoxious aquatic plant growth. Existing Project. A comprehensive program to provide for control and progressive eradication of sea lettuce, eel grass, Eurasian water milfoil, and filomentous algae and other obnoxious aquatic plant growths from the navigable waters, tributary streams, connecting channels and other allied waters in the Philadelphia District in the combined interest of navigation, flood control, drainage, agriculture, fish and wildlife conservation, public health and related purposes including continued study for the most effective and economic control measures in cooperation with other Federal and State agencies. Cost to the Federal Government is estimated at $257,000 (July 1968). Cost to local interest, $89,800 (July 1968).

Local cooperation. Prior to July 1, 1880, expenses of Washington Aqueduct. for construction, operation, and maintenance were paid entirely out of revenues of the United States. From July 1, 1880 to June 30, 1882, half of the expenses of operation and maintenance were paid by the United States and the other half came from the general revenues of the District of Columbia. From July 1, 1882 to June 30, 1898, one-half of construction costs were charged to a capital account on the books of the Treasury to be repaid by the District of Columbia from water rents with 3 percent interest. From July 1, 1898 to June 30, 1916, expenses of construction, operation, and maintenance were paid one-half from surplus general revenues of the District of Columbia and one-half from the United States Treasury. From July 1, 1916 to June 30, 1927, 60 percent of the expense of construction was paid from the general revenues of the District of Columbia and 40 percent was paid by the United States. From July 1, 1927 to date, all expenses for construction have been paid out of water revenues of the District of Columbia. From July 1, 1916 to date, all expenses of operation and maintenance have been paid from water revenues of the District of Columbia. From April 1953 to June 30, 1972, 4-27 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 $33,140,000 was borrowed from the United States Treasury, in installments, to finance expansion and improvement of the District of Columbia water system as authorized by Public Law 533, 81st Cong., 2d sess., of June 2, 1950, as amended by Public Law 364, 83rd Cong., 2d sess., of May 18, 1954. Public Law 280, 66th Cong., 2d sess., of June 10, 1920, appropriated $25,000 from United States revenues to prepare a report to assure an increased and adequate water supply for the District of Columbia. This report, known as the "Tyler Report," was the basis for improvements constructed from 1922 to 1927. The District of Columbia appropriation acts of 1941 and 1942 appropriated $40,000 from the water fund, District of Columbia, for preparation of a report "for the development of a plan to insure an adequate future water supply for the District of Columb= ia." This report, published as House Document 480, 79th Cong., 2d sess., contains comprehensive plan and program for improvements and additions to the water system. Since July 1, 1920, the United States has contributed annually to the support of the District of Columbia. Prior to July 1, 1947, no part of this annual contribution was allocated to the water fund, District of Columbia. From fiscal year 1948 through fiscal year 1954, pursuant to Public Law 195, 80th Cong., 1st sess., $1,000,000 was authorized each year for water consumed by the Federal Government. Public Law 364, 83rd Cong., 2d sess., known as the "District of Columbia Public Works Act of 1954," provided for payment by the United States for all water and water services furnished and increased authority for borrowing. Public Law 533, 81st Cong., 2d sess., authorized the Secretary of the Treasury to lend to the Commissioners of the District of Columbia such sums as may hereafter be appropriated (with a limit of $23,000,000) to finance expansion and improvement of the water system when sufficient funds therefor are not available from the District of Columbia Water Fund established by law (D. C. Code 1940 edition, title 1943, ch, 15). The, borrowing limit was extended by Public Law 364, 83rd Cong., 2d sess., to $35,000,000 and again by Public Law 650, 91st Cong., 2d sess. to $51,- 000,000. Operation and results during fiscal year. An uninterrupted and adequate supply of purified water was furnished to the District of Columbia; Arlington County, and Falls Church, Va.; and to Federal establishments in Arlington County, Va., and Montgomery and Prince Georges County, Md. Total consumption for the year was 74,322 million gallons; the maximum daily consumption was 261.4 million gallons and average daily consumption was 203.0 million gallons. Average per capita consumption was 189.8 gallons per day. The average amount furnished Arlington County and Falls Church, Va., was 38.3 million gallons per day. The D. C. Water Fund was reimbursed in the amount of $1,692,760 for water furnished to the Virginia communities. Maryland communities were supplied an average of 159,000 gallons per day during fiscal year 1972 by the District of Columbia through connections to the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission system. On 23 June 1952, fluoridation equipment was put in service. The application of fluoride to the water supply has been continuous since that date. Average turbidity of raw water from the Potomac River was 66 Jackson Units and the average Most Probable Number of coliform bacteria was 28,043. After treatment, the average turbidity of the filtered water was 0.21 and the average Most Probable Number of coliform bacteria per 100 milliliters was .10. The average calcium carbonate alkalinity of the filtered water was 55 P.P.M. and the average pH value was 7.8. Average hardness was 105 P.P.M. Analyses were made for coliform bacteria on 133,124 tubes of Lactose broth inoculated with water taken from 208 sampling points in the collection, purification, and distribution systems. Approximately 125,400 physical and chemical tests were made on 13,900 water samples from the supply and distribution system. Fluoride content of 4,430 water samples was determined. During fiscal year 1972, direct operating cost of water treated and delivered to system per million gallons was $61.32. Similar costs during fiscal year 1971 were $56.60 per million gallons. Visitors: During the year, 975 persons toured the water supply facilities, including 51 from foreign countries.

APPOMATTOX RIVER, VA. Location. This river rises in Appomattox County, Va., flows northeasterly 137 miles, and empties into the James River at Hopewell, Va. The portion under improvement extends from its mouth to Petersburg, Va., a distance of 11 miles, which is the length of the tidal and navigable reach. (See U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart No. 531.) Previous projects. For details see page 469 of Annual Report for 1938. Existing project. This provides for a channel 80 feet wide and 12 feet deep from the mouth of the river to a point 400 feet above Lieutenant Run; thence 80 feet wide and of such depth, not exceeding 12 feet, as can be 'obtained without rock excavation to the head of navigation at Petersburg; including a basin at the mouth of Poes Run 200 feet long, 150 feet wide, and 20 feet deep: and a turning basin at the mouth of Lieutenant Run 500 feet long, 140 to 160 feet wide, and 12 feet deep in the upper 300 feet, the removal of rock to a depth of 18 feet in the north half of the lower 200 feet, and removal of soft material to rock in the south half of the lower 200 feet of this basin. All depths are referred to mean low water. The project also provides for a dam at Petersburg and the excavation for a width of from 200 to 300 feet of a diversion channel connecting the river above the dam with the river at a point 2.5 miles below; for about 1.7 miles of levees on the low grounds between the navigable and the diversion channels; for a highway bridge and a railway bridge across the diversion channel; and for other work incidental to the diversion channel. Under ordinary conditions the mean tidal range is 2.9 feet and the extremes 2.4 and 3.3 feet. There are no records available of the heights of stage due to ordinary floods. These are estimated at 6 to 8 feet above mean low water at Petersburg, where the extremes are from 15.6 feet to 17.1 feet. (See Table 5-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. For details see page 212 of Annual Report for 1969. Terminal Facilities. There are about 2,500 feet of wooden bulkhead and a shore landing in Petersburg Harbor. These facilities are in an abandoned, dilapidated condition and have not been used by commercial traffic on the river since 1950. There are two large recreational facilities now in operation on the Appomattox River. One is located about 2 miles downstream from Petersburg, Virginia and the other is at Hopewell, Virginia near the confluence of the Appomattox and the James. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance dredging, by contract was commenced August 31, 1971 and completed September 18, 1971. There were removed 36,011 cubic yards of credited material, place measure, at a direct cost of $59,466. Maintenance engineering and design and supervision and administration amounted to $8,309. Condition at end of fiscal year. The existing project has been partially completed as follows. Construction of the diversion channel and other work incidental thereto was commenced in 1904 and continued intermittently to October 1921 when the work was completed. Construction of the channel 80 feet wide and 10 feet deep at mean low water was commenced in September 1929 and continued intermittently to January 1931 when the work was completed. The work remaining to complete the project consists of providing a channel 12 feet deep and generally 80 feet wide from the mouth of the river to the lower end of the turning basin at Lieutenant Run; a channel 80 feet wide and of such depth, not exceeding 12 feet, as can be obtained without rock excavation from the upper end of the turning basin to the head of the existing project; extending the existing turning basin to a point 100 feet below the center line of Lieutenant Run; widening this basin to 160 feet at the bend at the mouth of the run and to 140 feet at the lower end; removing all rock lying less than 18 feet below mean low water in the north half of the lower 200 feet of the basin; removing soft material in the south half of the lower 200 feet of this basin to rock; dredging the remainder of the turning basin to a depth of 12 feet; and dredging a basin 20 feet deep, 150 feet wide, and 200 feet long at the mouth of Poes Run. Depths are referred to mean low water. The uncompleted portion of the project is considered inactive. The project is shoaled above mile 9.5 to the extent that navigation is not possible. Shoaled conditions exist, to a lesser extent, on the remainder of the project. The maintenance dredging completed in FY 1972 restored a 6 feet deep by 60 feet wide passage below mile 8.5. The total cost of the existing project to June 30, 1972, was $1,515,948 of which $847,841 was for new work including $260,000 for the diversion channel and $668,107 for maintenance. 5-2 NORFOLK, VA., DISTRICT 2.

In fiscal year 1972, 80,525 cubic yards of credited material, place measurement, were removed at a direct cost of $77,617. A contract for replacement of an auxiliary power plant at Great Bridge Lock was commenced July 22, 1971 and completed March 7, 1972 at a direct cost of $28,950. Contracts to resurface one bridge and to paint three bridges were accomplished in this fiscal year at a total cost of $28,610. A contract to modernize vehicle traffic control system on the North Landing Bridge commenced in June 1972 and was in progress at the end of the year. Maintenance dredging on the Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal Route at North Landing River was commenced December 3, 1971 and completed January 3, 1972. There were removed 337,- 911 cubic yards of credited material, place measurement, at a direct cost of $108,079. Permanent operating equipment to be used on both routes, was purchased at a direct cost of $10,361. Maintenance snagging and bank trimming operations, with Government plant and hired labor, were carried on at several locations on both routes intermittently at a direct cost of $17,713. Maintenance repairs to bulkheads on both routes, with Government plant and hired labor, were accomplished at a direct cost of $3,114. Maintenance engineering and design, supervision and administration and real estate activity costs, less credits for collections for quarters and damages to Government property, amounted to $83,716. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is complete. For construction details, see Annual Report for 1966. Total cost of existing project to June 30, 1972 was $25,257,693 of which $3,- 396,276 (including $1 million for purchase of Albemarle & Chesapeake Canal and Dismal Swamp Canal) was for new work, $21,381,470 for maintenance, and $479,947 for rehabilitation. Contracts to repair the south lock wall at Great Bridge Lock and maintenance dredge the Dismal Swamp Canal at the feeder ditch were awarded in June 1972; however, no work had begun at end of fiscal year. Periodic maintenance dredging is being done to maintain full project dimensions on the Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal Route and about a 7-foot usable depth on the Dismal 5-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Swamp Canal Route which is considered adequate for existing traffic. 3. AQUATIC PLANT CONTROL, VA. Location. Navigable waters, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters in Norfolk District. Areas in which there are significant aquatic plant nuisance problems include: Back Bay-Eurasian Water Milfoil; Rappahannock River-Eurasian Water Milfoil; City of Norfolk-Sea Lettuce; and Chickahominy River-Elodea. Existing project. Provides for control and progressive eradication of water-hyacinth, alligatorweed, Eurasian water milfoil, and other obnoxious aquatic plant growths, from the navigable waters, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters of the United States, in the combined interest of navigation, flood control, drainage, agriculture, fish and wildlife conservation, public health, and related purposes, including continued research for development of the most effective and economic' control measures, to be administered by the Chief of Engineers, under the direction of the Secretary of the Army in cooperation with other Federal and State agencies. Local cooperation. Local interests must agree to hold the United States free from damages that may occur from operations performed in connection with this project, and participate to extent of 30 percent of cost of program. Operations and results during fiscal year. Review comments of various, interested agencies, regarding the General Design Memorandum for Virginia have been received. As a result of coordination meetings and correspondence, interest was indicated such that a one season, experimental control program is anticipated on the Walker Dam Impoundment, Chickahominy River, Virginia. However, local interests and other agencies did not indicate an interest in operational control programs for the three remaining areas where aquatic plant problems exist. This reluctance was due primarily to the lack of an acceptable method of control. Surveillance of the aquatic plant infestations in these areas is continuing. Condition at end of fiscal year. The General Design Memorandum has been approved and a one season, experimental treatment authorized for the Walker Dam Impoundment, Chickahominy River, Virginia. The Virginia Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries has tentatively agreed to furnish the items of local cooperation required for the one season experimental treatment. Pending receipt of the formal assurances of local cooperation, spraying operations are scheduled in late fiscal year 1973. 4.

(See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 1227.) Existing project. Federal participation in restoration and protection of shore of Virginia Beach between Rudee Inlet and 49th Street by artificial placement of sand to provide a minimum beach width of 100 feet at elevation 7 feet above mean low water, and maintenance of such beach by periodic replenishment of losses to insure continuous protection; including construction of a groin system to be undertaken at such times as estimated annual charges therewith would be less than the annual cost of beach replenishment alone. The United States shall participate in the first cost of the project to the full extent of its proportionate share of cost as a landowner, plus one third total first cost of restoring and protecting all publicly-owned sections of the shore. The 1962 modification provided that the United States shall further participate in periodic beach nourishment of the beach in the amount of one third the costs for 25 years from date of commencement of operations in placing an initial quantity of nourishment material equal to deficiency in the design beach at that time. Section 103 of the 1962 River and Harbor Act increased Federal participation to one-half of the cost incurred after October 23, 1962. Estimated Federal cost (1972) is $2,404,600. Estimated cost to local interests is $2,660,700. Construction of the groin system is not included in above estimate. The 1962 estimate for this work was $549,000 Federal cost and $531,000 cost to local interests. (See Table 5-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. River and Harbor Act of September 3, 1954, imposed conditions that local interests (a) adopt plan of restoration and protection; (b) submit for approval by the Chief of Engineers, before commencement of work, detailed plans and specifications for the project and also arrangements for prosecuting the work; (c) assure maintenance of protective and improvement measurements during their useful life as may be required to serve their intended purpose; (d) provide all lands and rights-of-way; hold the United States free from damages; (e) assure that water pollution that would endanger the health .of bathers will not be permitted; and (f) assure continued public ownership of the shore upon which the amount of Federal participation is based, and its administration for public use only. The modification of the project by the River and Harbor Act of October 23, 1962 continued the terms of local cooperation specified in the original project. The conditions of local cooperation have been complied with in the initial beach restoration and in the nourishment program to date. Conditions pertaining to construction of groins have not been complied with. A formal 5-13 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 agreement with the cooperating agency (City of Virginia Beach and the Virginia Beach Erosion Commission) for the initial beach restoration was entered into on October 19, 1955.

Kerr Reservoir and Philpott Lake projects, Roanoke River Basin Va. and N. C., began the fiscal year with both reservoirs above but near rule curve. Kerr Reservoir began to rise early in the fiscal year and remained between 1 and 3 feet above rule curve until 29 October, at which time it rose to elevation 307.76. It gradually fell to an elevation of 297.15 in November. Elevations continued to fluctuate well above rule curve throughout the fiscal year, and fell to a yearly low of 296.53 on 2 February 1972 which is about 6 feet above rule curve for that date. The flood produced by the remains of Hurricane Agnes caused on 27 June 1972, a peak reservoir elevation of 314.58 feet which is the highest elevation obtained in Kerr since construction was completed in 1952. The reservoir was at elevation 313.73 on June 30. Philpott remained very near or much above rule curve for most of the fiscal year. The reservoir remained near the rule curve until October at which time it rose to a record maximum elevation of 977.67 on 25 October. The reservoir gradually fell to its lowest elevation of 971.91 on 4 February or about 0.2 foot above rule curve for that date. The reservoir remained within 2 feet above to slightly below rule curve until 22 June when, for the second time within a year the previous maximum elevation of record was exceeded. The reservoir rose to elevation 983.06, or 1.9 feet below spillway crest and 9.6 feet above rule curve. The lake was then rapidly drawn down to about 1.5 feet above curve or elevation 975.06 on June 30. A minimum stage of 13 feet was provided at Weldon, N. C., during the entire striped bass spawning season. All inflows to Kerr Reservoir were controlled without having to spillwater over the spillway. Philpott had to spill some water through the sluices during flood control operations in June. Dump energy was sold at Kerr and Philpott during flood control periods in October, November, and June. Total cost of functional operation for the fiscal year was $85,981 John H. Kerr and $30,814 for Philpott. 6-24 WILMINGTON, N. C., DISTRICT General Investigations 53. SURVEYS.

The project areas cover navigable waters, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters in the Charleston District. Existing project. The project provides for control and progressive eradication of water- hyacinth, alligatorweed, Eurasian watermilfoil and other obnoxious aquatic plant growths from navigable waters, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters of the United States, in combined interest of navigation, flood control, drainage, agriculture, fish and wildlife conservation, public health and related purposes, including continued research for development of most effective and economic control measures in cooperation with other Federal and State agencies in accordance with report of Chief of Engineers. The act provides that research and planning cost shall be borne fully by the United * All cost and financial statements for projects are listed at the end of this chapter. All other tables are referenced in text and also appear at the end of this chapter. 7-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 States. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. Local interests must agree to hold the United States free from damages that may occur from operations performed in connection with this project, and participate to extent of 30 percent of cost of field operations. Requirements are being met in South Carolina. Operations and results during fiscal year. New Work: Chemical control operations were continued by Corps of Engineers personnel in the Little Pee Dee River, Black River and North Fork Edisto River. Colonies of Flea Beetles (Agasicles) were established for biological control of alligatorweed at Foster Creek near Charleston, at O'Neil's Lake near Fairfax, at Mulberry Plantation in Berkeley County, at Halfway Swamp on Lake Marion, the upper Santee Basin near Starr, and in the Edisto and Ashepoo River basins. Inspection of the release sites revealed very little activity through August, but significant enlargment of beetle colonies and increased attack on alligatorweed occurred in September and October. Costs incurred were $17,860 for engineering and $13,103 for operations. Condition at end of fiscal year. Chemical spraying operations have brought approximately' 1,000 acres of alligatorweed under effective control in the five basins cited above. Adaption of biological agents to local climatic conditions should result in additional acreage being brought under control. 2. ATLANTIC INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY BETWEEN NORFOLK, VA., AND ST. JOHNS RIVER, FLA. (CHARLESTON DISTRICT) Location. The project starts on Little River near the North Carolina-South Carolina State line and extends generally south along the coast of South Carolina 62 miles to Winyah Bay; thence 63.5 miles to Charleston; thence 84.5 miles to and including Port Royal Sound; a total of 210 miles. (See U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts Nos. 835, 836 and 838.) Previous projects. For further details see page 613 of Annual Report for 1932. Existing project. The project provides for a waterway 12 feet deep and not less than 90 feet wide with a branch channel of the same dimensions to McClellanville, and construction of three bridges crossing the waterway in Horry County, South Carolina. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. There are rail-water terminals at Georgetown, Charleston, Johns Island and Port Royal, and numerous open-pile wharves mostly for shipping agricultural products, fish, oysters, pulpwood, wood products, and petroleum products. Marinas are located at convenient intervals along the waterway where limited supplies and repair facilities are available for both commercial vessels and pleasure craft. Facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce and recreation requirements. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Construction of disposal areas and installation of Government furnished spillways was completed by Mac Construction Company, August 1971-February 1972, at a cost of $118,- 700. Repair and construction of disposal area embankments was completed by LaPorte, Inc., May-June 1972, at a cost of $160,500. Clearing and snagging by the U. S. maintenance vessel Snell and hired labor was performed at a cost of $26,216. Surveys and supervision costs were $260,682, which includes $42,173 for shoaling study. Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project was completed in 1940; three bridges were completed in 1936. Federal costs of existing project to date have been $7,345,888 for new work and $12,079,651 for maintenance for a total of $19,- 425,539. 3. CHARLESTON HARBOR, S.C. Location. The harbor is located on the coast of South Carolina about 15 miles south of the midpoint of the coastline, 50 miles southwest of Winyah Bay, S.C. and 80 miles northeast of the mouth of Savannah River. (See U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts Nos. 1239 and 470.) Previous projects. For further details see page 1808 of Annual Report for 1915; page 579 of Annual Report for 1926 and page 562 of Annual Report for 1938. Existing project. The authorized project provides for a channel 35 feet deep with varying widths from the Atlantic Ocean to the mouth of Goose Creek, a total of 21.9 miles, together with a 35-foot depth by 500-foot width channel via Town Creek. Also, a 10-foot depth by 110-foot width channel on the Mount Pleasant side of the harbor into Shem Creek to U.S. Highway 17 bridge, and a 30-foot anchorage basin in the lower harbor between Castle Pinckney and Fort Moultrie. A 40-foot channel estimated to cost $6,060,000 was authorized to be executed when found necessary in the interests of national defense from the 40-foot contour in Atlantic Ocean to U. S. Naval Base. For further details see page 425 of Annual Report for 1962. (See Table at 7-2 CHARLESTON, S. C., DISTRICT End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. Local interests have fully complied with their responsibility to date but are experiencing difficulty in securing suitable disposal areas for dredged material for continued future maintenance. Terminal facilities. Piers and slips extend for about 1 mile along the eastern waterfront of the city of Charleston with an additional mile of marginal wharves. The South Carolina State Ports Authority operates 8 piers for fruit, wood, cold storage facilities and general cargo, a grain elevator and a beltline railway which serves the entire Cooper River waterfront. Modern facilities are also at wharves of 7 major petroleum companies including storage tank farms. Modern facilities for marine repairs and servicing are available at Detyens Shipyard, located approximately 10 miles northeast of Charleston on the Wando River. The U.S. Navy Department has modern facilities for construction and maintenance of naval vessels including atomic submarines. Loading docks and storage areas for missile-carrying type vessels have also been constructed and are being operated by the U.S. Navy. For further details see Port Series No. 13, Corps of Engineers. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: The pipeline dredges Cherokee and Dauntless performed maintenance dredging and dike repairs by contracts during September 1971-February 1972, removing 1,836,070 cubic yards of material for $1,364,019. The hopper dredge Gerig and hired labor performed maintenance dredging in the entrance channel during January-March 1972, removing 949,922 cubic yards of material at a cost of $727,824. Surveys and supervision costs were $237,180. Condition at end of fiscal year. Jetties protecting the entrance channel across the bar were completed in 1895. The existing project was completed in October 1962, except for the national defense portion. Federal costs under the existing project to date have been $3,328,349 for new work and $33,- 001,763 for maintenance, a total of $36,330,112. 4. COOPER RIVER, CHARLESTON HARBOR, S.C. (ST. STEPHEN PROJECT) Location. Cooper River is located in Charleston and Berkeley Counties, S.C., and empties into the Atlantic Ocean at Charleston. Existing project. The major cause of the shoaling problem in Charleston Harbor is the diversion of fresh water from the Santee River through Pinopolis Dam into the salt water of Charleston Harbor, causing density currents which trap sediments resulting in a phenomenal rate of deposition. The most practical and economical solution of the shoaling problem is to redivert most of the Santee River waters above Pinopolis Dam back into the lower Santee River through a canal beginning at Lake Moultrie and extending to the Santee River in the vicinity of St. Stephen, South Carolina. The existing project for Cooper River as authorized by the River and Harbor Act (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Projects) provides that the discharge through the existing Pinopolis Hydro Plant be reduced to an average of 3,000 cubic feet per second. This flow would not establish a density current in the harbor. The excess water then impounded in Lake Moultrie would be directed through a new canal above St. Stephen, South Carolina, to enter the Santee River at a point well below the Lake Marion Spillway (Wilson Dam). A new hydroelectric facility would be constructed on the new canal where the ground elevations decrease to become swampland adjacent to the Santee River. This plant would replace those features made ineffective at Pinopolis through curtailment of flows. The power production flow of 24,500 cfs at the new powerplant, plus the proposed 3,000 cfs average release planned for Pinopolis, would approximate the existing total Pinopolis flow capacity. The three generators at the new plant would be rated at 28,000 kilowatts each, for a total of 84,- 000 kilowatts. In the interest of fish and wildlife resources of the area, the plan would also provide for construction of a herring lift at the new powerhouse site and a relocated fish hatchery, if found necessary; and a gated structure on the South Santee River for control of salinity in the delta reaches. Estimated cost of the project (1972) is $56,- 000,000, all Federal. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. None needed. The gated structure on South Santee, originally thought to be subject to local cooperation is for the purpose of migratory waterfowl which is a federally sponsored program. Operations and results during fiscal year. Advance Engineering and Design Studies were initiated after funds were released in April 1970 and studies continued through FY 72. Engineering and design costs were $175,417; supervision and administration costs were $39,600. Condition at end of fiscal year. The project is in the advanced planning stage. The General Design Memorandum was completed in January 1972 and work is proceeding on schedule on other phases of the project. 7-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 5. GEORGETOWN HARBOR, S.C. Location. The harbor is located on the coast of South Carolina 50 miles northeast of Charleston Harbor and 90 miles southwest of entrance to Cape Fear River, North Carolina.

RECONNAISSANCE AND CONDITION SURVEYS Condition surveys were made during June 1972 on the Waccamaw River at a cost of $5,000, on the Ashley River for $2,000 and on Village Creek at a cost of $2,700. 10. OTHER AUTHORIZED NAVIGATION PROJECTS (See Table 7-C) 11. NAVIGATION ACTIVITIES PURSUANT TO SECTION 107, PUBLIC LAW 86-645 (PREAUTHORIZATION) The detailed project report on Town Creek, near McClellanville, Charleston County, South Carolina, was revised according to review comments suggesting that consideration be given to the need for dredging the ocean bar at the mouth of Five Fathom Creek in order to give it usable depths compatible with the 10-foot channel proposed to Town Creek. This, and other revisions were in progress at the end of the fiscal year. Costs incurred during FY 72 were $6,696. An unfavorable reconnaissance report was completed for Pawleys Island Creek. This creek, which is located in Georgetown County, South Carolina, 13 miles northeast of Georgetown, combines with the Atlantic Ocean to encircle the barrier island called Pawleys Island. Benefits attributable to channel improvement, primarily for recreational boating activities, were computed to be less than expected average annual costs; therefore, the project was found to be unjustified. Costs for the study were $2,500. Work continued on a reconnaissance report with respect to the feasibility of restoring depths for commercial fishing vessels in the Calabash Creek (Brunswick County, North Carolina) from its connection with the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway to the village of Calabash. 12. NAVIGATION WORK UNDER SPECIAL AUTHORIZATION Snagging and clearing for navigation (Sec. 3 of 1945 River and Harbor Act, Public Law 14, 79th Cong.) Fiscal year cost: None. Beach Erosion Control 13. HUNTING ISLAND BEACH, S.C. Location. Hunting Island is a state park comprising about 1,850 acres of wooded land and is 7-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 located along the southeastern shore of South Carolina in Beaufort County, 16 miles east of the town of Beaufort, 9 miles southwest of Edisto Beach, and 35 miles northeast of Tybee Roads at the mouth of Savannah River. (See U.S. Coast and Geodetic Chart No. 793.) Existing project. The authorized project provides for periodic nourishment of about 10,000 feet of beach on the northern part of the island with initial placement of 750,000 cubic yards of sand for advance nourishment, and construction of one prestressed concrete groin at the north end of the island. Federal participation in periodic nourishment is limited to a period of 10 years. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. All requirements of local cooperation have been met by the State of South Carolina and accepted by the Chief of Engineers. The state contributed 30 percent of the cost of the initial project construction, and agreed to contribute a similar percentage of the costs of periodic nourishment during the 10-year period following initial construction. Operations and results during the fiscal year. New Work: Renourishment of the project, consisting of the placement of 750,000 cubic yards of sand along the 10,000-foot feeder beach, was initiated in May 1971 and completed in August 1971. Contract costs for the year were $282,028. Engineering and design costs were $5,706; supervision and administration costs were $6,111. Condition at end of fiscal year. The first renourishment was designed to restore the feeder beach to the condition prevailing after the initial beach nourishment. This renourishment was completed in August 1971 with about 60 percent of the work accomplished during the fiscal year. Total Federal cost for the project through 30 June 1972 was $795,808 (excluding $377,778 contributed funds) all for new work. 14. BEACH EROSION CONTROL UNDER SPECIAL AUTHORIZATION (ACTIVITIES PURSUANT TO SECTION 103, PUBLIC LAW 87-874) (PREAUTHORIZATION) At the request of local interest, reconnaissance reports on beach erosion were initiated in August 1971 on Pawleys Island and Garden City Beach, and, in September 1971 on Isle of Palms and Edisto Beach. These areas are all in South Carolina. Flood Control 15. YADKIN RIVER, N.C. Location. The river rises on the eastern slope of the Blue Ridge Mountain in western North Carolina, flows generally easterly about 100 miles to the vicinity of Donnaha, North Carolina, thence southeastely 104 miles to its confluence with Uwharrie River near Badin, North Carolina, where its name changes to Great Pee Dee River. (See U.S. Geological survey map of North Carolina.) Existing project. The Flood Control Act of July 24, 1946, authorized construction of four flood-control dams in the upper Yadkin River Basin, two on the Yadkin River above Wilkesboro, North Carolina, and two on Reddies River, a tributary stream. Studies made subsequent to authorization established the economic advantage of providing needed flood-control storage in only two reservoirs, one on the Reddies and one on the Yadkin. Present planning considers only the two-reservoir plan. Cost for the Yadkin River Reservoir (W. Kerr Scott Dam and Reservoir constructed 1962) and for Reddies River Lake is set forth in Table 7-D. (See Table at End of Chapter for Authorizing Legislation.) Funds of $131,500 were expended on the Reddies River Lake Project for project planning and preparation of a definite project report which was completed in March 1950. An economic restudy of the Reddies River Lake Project was submitted and approved in July 1968. Individual reports on W. Kerr Scott Dam and Reservoir and Reddies River Lake Project follow. 15A. W. KERR SCOTT DAM AND RESERVOIR, YADKIN RIVER, N.C. Location. W. Kerr Scott Dam and Reseroir is on Yadkin River, North Carolina, about 6 miles upstream from Wilkesboro. At full flood-control pool elevation (1075 feet mean sea level), the reservoir extends 15.7 miles upstream to Wilkes-Caldwell County line. Existing project. The project consists of a rolled earthfill dam 1,740 feet long, with top of dam at elevation 1107.5 feet mean sea level, or about 148 feet above streambed elevation; a spillway near the north abutment of the dam in a rock cut with crest elevation 1075; and outlet works consisting of an intake structure, control tower, and a circular concrete conduit 12.25 feet in diameter through the base of the dam near the south abutment. The reservoir has a gross capacity of 153,000 acre-feet of which 112,000 7-6 CHARLESTON, S. C., DISTRICT acre-feet are reserved for flood control, 33000 acre-feet will be used when required for water supply, and 8,000 acre-feet being contained in the minimum pool. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. For details see page 413 of Annual Report for 1963. Operations and results during fiscal year. New Work: Construction of recreation facilities (Code 711) cost $32,752. Maintenance: Operation and maintenance cost $333,144. During the fiscal year the project had a visitation of 730,957. All recreation facilities continue to be utilized beyond their maximum capabilities during fair weather. Acquisition of additional lands and construction of recreational facilities authorized under the Appalachia Program has resulted in the project having the capability to accommodate approximately 250,000 additional visitors annually. The majority of visitor requirements continues to be for camping and picnicking facilities. On three occasions the watershed area received excessive amounts of rainfall, resulting in the necessity to control the outflow to prevent possible flood damages to the areas below the dam. During August 1970, the dam received the most severe test since its construction. The stored inflow reached an elevation of 1060.2 feet msl, 30.2 feet above normal pool, and prevented an estimated $4,375,500 in downstream damages. In June 1972 during Hurricane Agnes, the stored inflow reached an elevation of 1047.7 feet mean sea level, about 17.7 feet above normal pool level and prevented an estimated savings of 3,690,000 in downstream damages. Condition at end of fiscal year. The project was commenced in August 1960 and placed in operation for flood control and water storage purposes in February 1963. 15B. REDDIES RIVER LAKE, N.C. Location. Reddies River flows into the Yadkin River near the town of North Wilkesboro, North Carolina, and is a tributary to the Yadkin-Pee Dee River. The authorized lake and damsite are located entirely in Wilkes County, North Carolina. Existing project. Reddies River Lake is the second unit in the authorized plan for the upper Yadkin River Basin. The first unit, W. Kerr Scott Reservoir, is located about 5 miles upstream from the mouth of the Reddies River and was completed in 1962. The Reddies damsite is located on Reddies River at mile 1.7, near the town of North Wilkesboro. Total tributary area above the damsite is 94.5 square miles. Project works contemplate construction of a rolled-earth dam about 165 feet high with a saddle spillway and a gated outlet conduit. The conservation pool will cover about 720 acres and the flood control pool about 1,383 acres. The project was authorized by the Flood Control Act of 1946; however, the project was deferred for restudy in 1950. An economic restudy was submitted in FY 69 and approved in FY 70. Preconstruction planning funds were appropriated in FY 70, but the funds were held in budgetary reserve throughout FY 70. Work began in January 1971 on the General Design Memorandum and Phase I is scheduled for completion in October 1972. The Site Selection Design Memorandum was completed in May 1972 while the Hydrology and Hydraulic Analysis Design Memorandum is scheduled to be completed in August 1972. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Estimated cost of the project (1972) is $12,- 700,000 of which $2,380,000 is reimbursable for water supply under the Water Supply Act of 1958, and $520,000 for recreation. Local cooperation. The state of North Carolina has given letters of intent to fulfill the local cooperation requirements necessary for water supply and development of recreational facilities. Operations and results during fiscal year. New Work: A mapping contract was awarded and the work proceeded in a satisfactory manner. Preliminary planning for advanced engineering and design was initiated. Engineering and design costs were $111,175; supervision and administration costs were $22,530. Condition at end of fiscal year. Advanced planning studies are underway. 16. SUGAR AND BRIAR CREEKS, N.C. Location. Little Sugar Creek, a tributary of Sugar Creek has its source about one-half mile northwest of the Charlotte, North Carolina, city limits, whence it flows generally southwest through the eastern portion of Charlotte, for a distance of about 11 miles, continuing southwardly about 7 miles to its confluence with Sugar Creek near the North Carolina-South Carolina State line. Briar Creek, a tributary of Little Sugar Creek, has its source near the Charlotte city limits, whence it flows southwesterly a distance of about 9 miles through the eastern portion of Charlotte to its confluence with Little Sugar Creek near the southerly city limits of Charlotte. Existing project. The project provides for excavating a 50-foot wide channel up Little Sugar Creek from Archdale Road to sta 40+41 which is near the confluence of Little Sugar and Briar Creeks. From there it is to be excavated 40-feet wide up to sta 228+00 at Randolph Road which is the end of the project. The project provides 7-7 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 for channelization of Little Sugar and Briar Creeks for a combined distance of 7.6 miles beginning at Archdale Drive near the southerly city limits and continuing northeast to Princeton Avenue on Little Sugar Creek and to Randolph Road on Briar Creek. The Little Sugar Creek channel would have a 50-foot wide bottom from Archdale Drive to the Briar Creek confluence and 40-foot wide bottom to the upstream limit. Briar Creek would have a 30-foot bottom width throughout the project length. Briar Creek portion has been placed in an inactive status at the request of local interest. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. Local interest must provide lands, easements, rights-of-way, utility relocations and alterations, and highway or highway-bridge construction and alterations necessary for construction; hold the United States free from damages; maintain and operate the project after completion; prevent future encroachment and notify affected interests annually that the improvement will not provide complete flood protection. Operations and results during fiscal year. The project is in the preconstruction planning stage, still awaiting local assurances. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is in advance engineering and design stage. 17. TURKEY CREEK, SUMTER COUNTY, S.C. Location. Turkey Creek, located in Sumter County, South Carolina, originates northeast of the city of Sumter and flows southward through the eastern edge of the city to its confluence with the Pocotaligo River. The total length of Turkey Creek is about 5.8 miles. Existing project. The project provides for channel enlargement from the Pocotaligo River to a point 4.5 miles upstream. (See Table at End of Chapter for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Operations and results during fiscal year. New Work: Contract costs were $205,083. Engineering and design costs were $6,425; supervision and administration costs were $22,212. Condition at end of fiscal year.

These rivers are entirely within the State of Georgia. (See U. S. Geological Survey map of Georgia.) For full description of these rivers, see page 636, Annual Report for 1932. Previous projects. Prior projects for the Altamaha River had been adopted, and expenditures made under them, by River and Harbor Acts of March 3, 1881, and September 19, 1890; for the Oconee River by River and Harbor Acts of June 18, 1878, September 19, 1890, and March 3, 1905; for the Ocmulgee River, by River and Harbor Acts of August 14, 1876, and September 19, 1890. For further details, see page 1815, Annual Report for 1915, and page 589, Annual Report for 1938. * All costs and financial statements for projects are listed at the end of this chapter. All other tables are referenced in the text and also appear at the end of this chapter. 8-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Existing project. The authorized project provides for an appropriation of $40,000 annually for the Altamaha, Oconee, and Ocmulgee Rivers, to maintain a 3-foot depth during ordinary summer low water and to gradually increase channel depth, so far as practicable without sacrificing the maintenance work. This project covers the entire Altamaha River (including a channel between the river and Darien, Ga.), a length of 137 miles, the lower 139 miles of the Oconee River, and the lower 199 miles of the Ocmulgee River. The Altamaha River has a mean tidal range of 6.4 feet at its mouth which gradually decreases to mile 33 above, where there is no perceptible tidal effect. At Doctortown, mile 59, ordinary floods attain a height of about 10 feet above low water, and extreme floods, a height of about 15 feet above low water. On the Oconee River at Dublin the ordinary fluctuations attain a height of 22 feet, and the extreme fluctuations a height of 32 feet, above low water. On the Ocmulgee River at Macon the ordinary fluctuations attain a height of 15 feet, and the extreme fluctuations a height of 25 feet, above low water. There is no approved estimated cost for improvement or for maintenance. The latest published maps of these rivers are in the following documents: Altamaha River, House Executive Document 283, Fifty-first Congress, second session; Oconee River, House Executive Document 211, Fifty-first Congress, first session; Ocmulgee River, House Executive Document 215, Fifty-first Congress, first session; and Lower Altamaha River and Darien Harbor, Ga., House Document 610, Seventy-seventh Congress, second session. (See Table 8-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Along these rivers there are numerous natural shore landings which are considered ample for existing commerce. Facilities for recreational boats have been constructed in recent years at several points. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: On February 22, 1972 hired labor snagging work was initiated by crane bare No. 2 with towboat Tomkins and snagging was completed on June 30, 1972 after removing 2,638 snags at a cost of $37,195 including inspection and overhead. Other costs incurred, including condition and operation studies, hydrographic surveys, and water pollution and environmental studies, amounted to $26,584. (See Table 8-A for Cost and Financial Statement.) Condition at end of fiscal year. The existing project is such that the percentage of completion cannot be stated. Channel depths have been increased by excavating rock shoals and sandbars, by constructing contraction and bank-protection works, and by closing cutoffs. Navigation has been rendered safer by removing obstructions. Many of the closing dams and contractions and bank-protection works need repairs. To June 30, 1972, costs under the existing project were $60,847 for new work and $1,527,832 for maintenance, of which $13,533 were contributed funds, a total of $1,588,679. (See Table 8-A for Cost and Financial Statement.) 2. AQUATIC PLANT CONTROL Location. Navigable waters, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters in Savannah District. Existing project. The project provides for control and progressive eradication of water- hyacinth, alligatorweed, Eurasian water milfoil, and other obnoxious aquatic plant growths, from navigable waters, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters of the United States, in the combined interests of navigation, flood control, drainage, agriculture, fish and wildlife conservation, public health, and related purposes, including continued research for development of most effective and economic control measures in cooperation with other Federal and State agencies in accordance with report of Chief of Engineers, House Document 251, 89th Congress, 1st session. The authorizing act provides that research and planning costs shall be borne fully by the United States. (See Table 8-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. Local interests must agree to hold the United States free from damages that may occur from operations performed in connection with this project and participate to the extent of 30 percent of the cost of the program. Requirements are being met. Operations and results during fiscal year. Liaison was continued with the Georgia Game and Fish Commission who maintain surveillance of potential aquatic plant problem areas. Although aquatic plant control work is not imminent, the existing contract with the state of Georgia would permit the initiation of such work, depending on availability of funds. Cost during the fiscal year was $218. (See Table 8-A for Cost and Financial Statement.) 3. ATLANTIC INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY BETWEEN -NORFOLK, VA., AND THE ST. JOHNS RIVER, FLA. (SAVANNAH DISTRICT) Location. This 161 mile section of waterway connects Port Royal Sound, S. C., with Cumber- 8-2 SAVANNAH, GA., DISTRICT land Sound, Ga. and Fla. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 838-841, inclusive.) Previous projects. (Between Savannah, Ga., and Fernandina, Fla.) For details see Annual Reports for 1915 and 1938. Existing project. The project provides for a waterway 12 feet deep at mean low water and not less than 90 feet wide between Port Royal Sound, S.C., and Savannah, Ga.; 12 feet deep at mean low water, with widths of 90 feet in landcuts and narrow streams and 150 feet in open waters, between Savannah, Ga., and Cumberland Sound, Ga. and Fla.; and a suitable anchorage basin at Thunderbolt, Georgia. Mean tidal range between Port Royal, S. C., and Cumberland Sound, Ga. and Fla., is from 6 to 8 feet, with fluctuations from 1 and one-half to 2 and one-half feet, due to winds and lunar phases. (See Table 8-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Exclusive of adequate terminal facilities at ports of entry, this improvement serves numerous wharves, some of which are open to the public on equal terms. Facilities are considered ample for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: A combined contract for the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway and Brunswick Harbor was awarded April 29, 1971 for maintenance dredging and during the period July 1 through August 3, 1971, contract pipeline dredge Arlington removed 455,102 cubic yards of material from the main route of the waterway at Little Mud River, Hell Gate, Wilmington River, and Fields Cut, at a cost of $296,000, including inspection, overhead and other government costs. A continuing contract for maintenance dredging was awarded January 6, 1972, and dredging was initiated March 5, 1972 and through June 30, 1972, the contract pipeline dredge Arlington removed 573,744 cubic yards of material from the main route of the waterway at Buttermilk Sound, Little Mud River, Jekyll Creek and Altamaha Sound and the more protected auxiliary route around St. Andrews Sound, at a cost of $145,092, including inspection, overhead and other government costs. Project condition surveys, condition studies, water pollution and environmental studies, and other government costs amounted to $58,771. Total cost for the fiscal year amounted to $499,- 863. (See Table 8-A for Cost and Financial Statement.) Condition at end of fiscal year. The main channel of the existing project, completed in 1941, is maintained at 12 feet. The former main channel now an alternate route through the westerly end of the South Channel and northerly end of Wilmington River, will be maintained to a depth of 7 feet mean low water for traffic points north and south of Savannah Harbor. Costs of the existing completed project to June 30, 1972, were $763,599 for new work and $7,- 963,786 for maintenance, a total of $8,727,385. (See Table 8-A for Cost and Financial Statement.) 4. BRUNSWICK HARBOR, GA. Location. The Harbor entrance is 70 statute miles south of the entrance to Savannah Harbor, Ga., and 25 statute miles north of the entrance to Fernandina Harbor, Florida. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 447.) Previous projects. For details see Annual Reports for 1915 and 1938. Existing project.

Peacock Creek is located in the eastern portion of Liberty County and empties into the Atlantic Ocean through North Newport River. Peacock Creek and tributaries drain a portion of the Fort Stewart Military Reservation and sizeable swamps in the vicinity of Hinesville, Flemington, and McIntosh, Georgia. Existing project. The approved plan of improvement provides for channel clearing and excavation of approximately 6.8 miles on Peacock Creek, 3.3 miles on Captain Fleming Swamp, 4.8 miles on the main stem of Melvin Swamp, 4.2 miles on the minor stems of Melvin Swamp, 3.6 miles on the main stem of Goshen Swamp, and 1.7 miles on the minor stems of Goshen Swamp. Adequate waterway openings beneath state, Federal, and county maintained roads and lateral and on-farm drainage will be provided by local interests. Local cooperation. Local interests must (a) provide, without cost to the United States, all lands, easements, rights-of-way, utility relocations and alternations, waterway openings beneath roads, and highway or highway bridge construction and alterations necessary for project construction; (b) hold and save the United States free from damages due to the construction works, and adjust all claims concerning water rights; (c) maintain and operate the project, after completion, without cost to the United States, in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Army; (d) prevent future encroachment which might interfere with proper functioning of the project for flood control. The County Commissioners of Liberty County have furnished assurances that comply with requirements of local cooperations. The County Commissioners of Liberty County indicate they will assist in every way possible to see that property owners construct the necessary lateral ditches on their property to assure the success of the project. The City of Hinesville and the Liberty County Board of Commissioners have requested the Corps of Engineers to perform the engineering and design work for which they are responsible, on a reimbursable basis. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preconstruction planning was approximately 95 percent complete at the end of the fiscal year. The field surveys were completed in October 1970 and plans and specifications were virtually complete. The project was modified as initially formulated to take into consideration the changes and improvements that have taken place in certain areas and also review comments of other agencies on the environmental impact statement. The change provided for revision of approximately 5 miles of channel excavation on Peacock Creek to provide for clearing and shaping of channel with some overbank clearing. Condition at end of fiscal year. The proposed plan of improvement as contained in the Detailed Project Report was furnished to the Attorney General, State of Georgia and comments received were favorable. However, the environmental statement is currently being revised for the project and its recoordination and filing will possibly delay advertisement of the channel excavation contract until the middle part of fiscal year 1973. Cost during the fiscal year was $22,- 434. (See Table 8-A for Cost and Financial Statement.) 12. INSPECTION OF COMPLETED FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS Physical inspections of the Augusta and Macon levees were made during the fiscal year. Cost for fiscal year was $1,769. 13.

CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN FLORIDA Location. The project is located generally within the southeastern eighteen counties of Florida covering an area of about 15,200 square miles. It is comprised of the Upper St. Johns River basin in the northeastern section of project, Kissimmee River basin in central section above the Lake Okeechobee-Everglades area in the central and southwestern section, and the east coast Everglades area in southeastern section. Previous projects. Completed works for control of Lake Okeechobee were included in and constructed under the navigation project for Okeechobee Waterway, Fla. (formerly Caloosahatchee River and Lake Okeechobee drainage areas, Fla.), and under provisions of River and Harbor Acts of July 3, 1930, and August 30, 1935. For further information, see Annual Reports, 1948 and 1949. Existing project. The project is for flood relief and water conservation and provides principally for: an east coast protective levee extending from the Homestead area north to the eastern shore of Lake Okeechobee near the St. Lucie Canal; three conservation areas for water impoundment in the Everglades area west of the east coast protective levee with control structures to effect transfer of water as necessary; local protective works along the lower east coast; encirclement of the Lake Okeechobee agricultural area by levees and canals; enlargement of portions of Miami, North New River, Hillsboro, and West Palm Beach 9-21 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Canals; enlargement of the existing Lake Okeechobee levees and construction of new levees on the northeast and northwest shore of the lake; increased outlet capacity for improved control of Lake Okeechobee; floodway channels in the Kissimmee River basin, with suitable control structures to prevent overdrainage; an interrelated system of canals, levees, pumping stations, and structures in southwest Dade County to control water levels; and facilities for regulating floods in the Upper St. Johns River basin; a system of canals and control structures for gravity drainage of Martin County and distribution of available water supplies to portions of Martin and St. Lucie Counties; and works to improve the supply, distribution, and conservation of water resources in central and southern Florida, including the Lake Okeechobee agricultural area, Everglades National Park, and other related areas. The project will provide water control and protection from recurrence of the devastating floodwaters from the Everglades and local sources, for the highly developed urban area along the lower east coast of Florida and for the productive agricultural areas around Lake Okeechobee (including towns around lake), in the Upper St. Johns and Kissimmee River basins, and in South Dade County. Project also provides for navigation improvements suitable for recreational craft, consisting of locks and channel dredging in the upper Kissimmee and St. Johns River basins. The project includes a total of 1,030 miles of levees, 1,014 miles of canals, 32 pumping plants, 200 floodway control and diversion structures, and 62 railroad relocations (bridges). The project also provides that upon completion, local interests assume operation and maintenance of all completed works except levees, channels, locks, and control works for regulation of Lake Okeechobee and the main control structures of conservation areas, which will be operated and maintained by the United States. The principal features of the hurricane gates, constructed under previous projects for Okeechobee Waterway and maintained under existing project since July 1, 1950, are set forth in Table 9-K. See also Table 9-U for principal features of locks and dam. Estimate of cost for new work (1971) is $403,- 000,000 Federal funds and $92,700,000 contributed funds, exclusive of river and harbor funds expended on previous projects. Local interests' costs in reviewing plans and specifications are :xpected to be $380,000. In addition, estimated cost to local interests of lands, rights-of-way, and relocations is $77,720,000.

In addition to the actual facilities listed above it is necessary under Operation and Maintenance to continue meteorological studies, water level records, stream gaging stations, etc., for proper regulation of the level of Lake Okeechobee and storage of water in Conservation Areas 1, 2, and 3. Regulation. a. General. One of the severest droughts of record existed over the Central and Southern Florida Project area from September 1970 to June 1971. Due to this, Fiscal Year 1972 began with stages in most major storage areas ranging from 1 to 3 feet below their seasonal regulation schedules. Stages rose from July through October, but by the end of October remained from 1 to 2 feet below the rising seasonal schedules. Near the end of October an assessment was made of available storage in the major storage areas of the project. It was determined that adequate storage then existed to meet user demands without restrictions for the next six-month period, provided rainfall continued near normal. Beginning with November, all restrictions on water use that had been in effect from July through October were discontinued. From November through March, stages generally receded. During this period every effort was made to conserve all water possible. However, by the end of March most aboveground storage in Water Conservation Areas 2A and 3A had been depleted. During April, May, and June above normal rainfall occurred over the project areas. By mid-June these rainfalls had raised most of the major storage areas above the lower limits of their schedule, requiring regulatory releases. Hurricane Agnes moved north through the Gulf of Mexico, approximately 125 miles offshore 17 to 19 June, going inland on the afternoon of the 19th near Panama City, Florida. While the hurricane dumped moderate to heavy rainfall over most of the project area little flooding resulted. The Central and Southern Florida Control District reported no damage to Central and Southern Florida Project facilities. However, within the project area tornadoes attributed to the hurricane took the lives of 7 people and injured scores of others. Damage estimates to 26 June 1972, attributed to Hurricane Agnes, were $136,000 to public property and $4,715,000 to private property in those counties declared a disaster area. Damages in non-disaster areas of the project totaled $39,000 to public property and $272,000 to private property. (1) Lake Okeechobee. Lake Okeechobee stages generally followed the pattern previously described. It began the fiscal year at elevation 10.8, up from the low of 10.3 established on 7 June, rose to a fiscal year high elevation of 14.4 on 8 November, receded to elevation 12.6 on 29 April, and then rose to an elevation of 14.1 on 26 June. Rainfall over Lake Okeechobee totaled 47.3 inches for the fiscal year which was 2.7 inches below the annual median rainfall total of 49.9 inches. The net water supply to the lake from its 5,650 square mile drainage area totaled 1,- 561,000 AF (acre-feet) during Fiscal Year 1972. This was 250,000 AF below the annual median net water supply. In comparison, the Fiscal Year 1971 net water supply totaled a negative 206,000 AF. Releases from the lake mainly for irrigation via the Agricultural Canals totaled 313,000 AF. Regulatory releases totaling 12,200 AF were made between the period 28 to 30 June via the Caloosahatchee Canal. A revised interim seasonal regulation schedule was approved in May which raised the lower limits of the schedule from 13.5 to 14.0 feet. (2) Water Conservation Area No. 1. This area was the only major storage area that was operated at or near schedule the entire fiscal year. It began the year at elevation 15.2 feet, about 0.2 foot below schedule, rose to a high of 17.2 on 10 November and generally followed the schedule down to elevation 16.2 at the end of March. During April, May, and June stages remained above schedule requiring regulatory releases. These releases through S-10 to Water Conservation Area 2A totaled 304,000 AF during this period. Releases to the east from WCA #1 during the fiscal year totaled 22,000 AF. Seepage, mostly to the east, totaled another 204,000 AF. The net water supply for Fiscal Year 1972 totaled 632,000 AF. In comparison, the net water supplies for FY-70 and FY-71 totaled 833,000 AF and 249,000 AF, respectively. (3) Water Conservation Area 2A. This area was above schedule during most of May and June, after having been 2 to 2.5 feet below schedule from July through March. Regulatory releases during May and June through S-11 to Water Conservation Area No. 3A totaled 272,000 AF. No releases were made to the east during the fiscal year, as compared to 60,000 AF released during Fiscal Year 1971. Seepage, mainly to the east, totaled an estimated 109,000 AF. Rainfall for the fiscal year totaled 51.0 inches, which was 0.2 inch above the annual median total of 50.8 inches. The net water supply to the area totaled 581,000 AF during Fiscal Year 1972. In comparison the net water supply for FY-71 totaled 110,- 800 AF and for FY-70, 1,430,000 AF. (4) Water Conservation Area No. 3A. Stages in Water Conservation Area No. 3A began Fiscal 9-23 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Year 1972, 1.5 feet below schedule, rose to within 0.9 foot of schedule on 4 November, then receded to 2 feet below schedule (elevation 7.6 feet) on 29 April. From this point it rose to the year's high of 9.9 feet, 0.2 foot above schedule, on 30 June. Rainfall for the fiscal year totaled 48.4 inches, 2.1 inches below the annual median rainfall of 50.4 inches. Of this total 24.5 inches occurred during the months of April, May, and June. The total net water supply to the area during Fiscal Year 1972 totaled 1,199,000 AF, of which 712,000 AF occurred during the months of April, May, and June. In comparison, the net water supplies for Fiscal Year 1970 and 1971 totaled 163,000 AF and 2,516,000 AF, respectively. No releases were made during the fiscal year from Area 3A to the east coast, although seepage to the east was estimated to be 342,000 AF. A total of 278,000 AF was discharged through the S-12 spillway to the Everglades National Park. This was 18,600 AF above the minimum annual required release from Area 3A even though under water sharing, the pro-rata share to the Park (re PL 91-282) from June through October was reduced from 125,600 AF to 98,400 AF. c. Central and Southern Florida Flood Control District. Project canals, structures, and pumping stations were operated by the Flood Control District in accordance with design criteria to supply irrigation water to the agricultural areas, maintain desirable canal levels, and prevent salinity problems in coastal areas. During the fiscal year about 1,243,000 AF of water were pumped by the Flood Control District as follows: 488,100 AF to Lake Okeechobee, 417,300 AF to Water Conservation Area No. 1, 126,500 AF to Water Conservation Area 2A and 211,100 AF to Water Conservation Area 3A. An additional 100,700 AF was discharged to Area 3A by gravity from the agricultural area through the S-8 spillway. A total of 313,000 AF was released from Lake Okeechobee to the agricultural areas for irrigation purposes. Condition at end of fiscal year. The project was about 48 percent complete. Planning for the entire project began in November 1948 and has been continued. For construction completed prior to Fiscal Year 1971, see Annual Reports for 1960-1970.

Public Law 436, 83d Congress, suspended authorization of the comprehensive plan, insofar as it provides for development of Coosa River, to permit non-Federal interests to develop the Coosa River by construction of a series of dams in accordance with conditions of a license issued pursuant to Federal Power Act and in accordance with certain other provisions and requirements of the aforementioned public law. The present phase of improvement, now under construction, provides for construction of Jones Bluff and Millers Ferry multiple-purpose improvements Claiborne Lock and Dam, and supplemental channel work providing for a 9-foot deep navigation channel from the mouth of the Alabama River to Montgomery, Alabama, and for construction of Carters Dam, a multiple-purpose improvement on Coosawattee River, Georgia. Estimated cost 1972 for new work on Alabama-Coosa Rivers is $269,120,000 consisting of $264,500,000, for structures, and $4,620,000 for supplemental channel improvements, exclusive of amounts expended on previous projects. Local cooperation. Requirements of local cooperation will be determined as formulation of plans for development of projects progress. No action in the matter of local cooperation has been initiated. Terminal facilities. On the east bank of the river a natural landing connects with city streets at Montgomery. Wofford Oil Company has a small wharf about 10 miles below Montgomery equipped for handling petroleum products. There are also various natural landings along the river. Facilities and natural landings on Alabama River are considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Construction continued on Carters Dam, Millers Ferry Lock and Dam, Claiborne Lock and Dam, and Jones Bluff Lock and Dam. Acquisition of land was continued on the Alabama River channel at a cost of $2,004. Channel work cost $27,970. Engineering, design, supervision, and administration cost $47,741. Maintenance: The U. S. pipeline dredge Collins, performing dredging operations a total of 161 days, removed 1,828,443 cubic yards of material from the Alabama River, at a cost of $363,156. Snagging operations in Alabama River cost $274.

Detailed information on operations and costs applicable to the individual dam projects is presented under their respective project titles elsewhere in this report. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction was initiated on Carters Dam in April 1962, on Millers Ferry Lock and Dam in April 1963, Claiborne Lock and Dam in May 1965, and Jones Bluff Lock and Dam in March 1966. Maintenance operations on the -Alabama River, since authorization of the existing project, have been limited mainly to periodic dredging to restore a 4-foot open-channel depth from the mouth of the river to Wetumpka as provided for under previous projects. Maintenance operations on the Coosa River, which were discontinued in 1950, consisted mainly of the care of Government property at locks and dams constructed under previous projects. These locks and dams have been inoperative for some years and no longer serve any useful purpose. Since all existing locks on the river are inoperative, through navigation on the Coosa River is impossible. Inspections of the lower Alabama River in 1955 indicated a controlling depth of 4 feet from the mouth to Claiborne. Boats drawing 3 feet can usually operate all year; however greater depths are usually available from November to June.

Lakes and streams in State of Louisiana. Existing project. Provides for control and progressive eradication of water-hyacinth, alligatorweed, and other obnoxious aquatic plant growth from navigable waters, tributray streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louiaiana, and Texas, in combined interests of navigation, flood control, drainage, agriculture, fish and wildlife conservation, public health, and related purposes, including continued research for development of most effective and economic control measures. The modification of 1965 provides for comprehensive program for control and progressive eradication of water-hyacinth, alligatorweed, Eurasian water milfoil, and other obnoxious plant growths from navigable waterways, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters of the United States, in combined interest of navigation, flood control, drainage, agriculture, fish and wildlife conservation, public health, and related purposes, including continued research for development of most effective and economic control measures. Research and planning costs undertaken pursuant to 1965 act shall be borne fully by the United States and shall not be included in costs to be shared by local interests. Local cooperation. Local interests must hold the United States free from claims and participate in project to extent of 30 percent of cost of operations. State of Louisiana, Department of Public Works and Louisiana Wild Life and Fisheries Commission furnished a joint assurance of local cooperation, which was approved April 29 and accepted May 4, 1959. Under provisions of continuing contract, local agencies will perform work in kind, approximating 30 percent of cost of program. Operations and results during fiscal year. Combined efforts by the Corps of Engineers crews and crews of the State of Louisiana, Wild Life and Fisheries Commission, continued against aquatic vegetation problems throughout the state. Water-hyacinth control requires maintenance work in all areas, and persists as the most serious aquatic pest. Control maintenance by the Corps of cleared areas continued in the Calcasieu River area north of Lake Charles, Louisiana, in the Bayou Teche basin south of U. S. Highway 190. including the lakes west of the Atchafalaya Floodway, in the feeder areas of the Port Allen-Morgan City Route of the GIWW, and in the feeder areas to the GIWW in Coastal Louisiana. Louisiana Wild Life and Fisheries Commission crews continued maintenance efforts in the major lakes and streams of North Louisiana, in the Atchafalaya Floodway, and in the Pearl River basin within Louisians. In addition, Louisiana Wild Life and Fisheries Commission crews began work to control water-hyacinths in Toledo Bend Reservoir, under their reimbursable contract, to prevent downstream infestation. State 11-2 NEW ORLEANS, LA., DISTRICT crews also treated 250 acres of submersed vegetation in False River at New Roads, Louisiana. The previous year 29,110 acres of water-hyacinths and alligatorweed were destroyed. State of Louisiana crews destroyed 16,980 acres of water-hyacinths and alligatorweed by chemical treatment. Corps of Engineer crews destroyed 12,130 acres of waterhyacinths and alligatorweed by chemical and mechanical methods. The alligatorweed flea beetles (agasicles) again successfully overwintered in all parts of the state and are beginning to reduce the total area of alligatorweed. A research contract was negotiated with Northwestern State University of Louisiana for work on submersed plants and cooperation with other research efforts continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. Operations under 1958 River and Harbor Act, initiated May 1959, are complete. Operations under 1965 Act were initiated in fiscal year 1968. Waterways are being cleared, then maintained as required. 2. ATCHAFALAYA RIVER AND BAYOUS CHENE, BOEUF, AND BLACK, LA. Location. The improvement is located in the parishes of Assumption, Terrebonne, and St. Mary, La., in the vicinity of Morgan City, along Bayous Chene, Boeuf, and Black, and the Lower Atchafalaya River to the Gulf of Mexico. (See Mississippi River Commission alluvial maps, Morgan City, Belle Isle, and Point au Fer quadrangles, Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 1276, and navigation maps of Intracoastal Waterway and Atchafalaya River system.) Existing project. Provides for enlargement and extension of project, Atchafalaya River, Morgan City to the Gulf of Mexico, La., to obtain navigation channels 20 feet deep over a bottom width of 400 feet from vicinity of U. S. Highway 90 crossing over Bayou Boeuf to the Gulf of Mexico via Bayou Boeuf, Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, Bayou Chene, Avoca Island Cutoff, the Lower Atchafalaya River, Atchafalaya Bay to the Gulf of Mexico, and from near U. S. Highway 90 to Bayou Chene via Bayou Black and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. Estimated cost for new work (July 1972) is $13,700,000 Federal and $2,990,000 non-Federal. In addition, Coast Guard is to provide navigation aids at an estimated cost of $40,000. Local cooperation. The local agency must provide all lands, easements, and right-of-way for construction and subsequent maintenance of the project and for aids to navigation upon the request of the Chief of Engmineers, including suitable areas required in the general public interest for initial and subsequent disposal of spoil, and also necessary retaining dikes, bulkheads, and embankments therefor or the cost of such retaining works; accomplish and maintain all modifications to roads, bridges, pipelines, cables and any other utilities and improvements necessary for the construction and subsequent maintenance of the project; and hold the United States free from damages due to construction and maintenance of the project. The Morgan City Harbor and Terminal District furnished a formal assurance of local cooperation dated December 15, 1970, for that part of the project in St. Mary Parish. On March 24, 1971, and July 28, 1971, respectively, the Assumption and Terrebone Parish Police Juries passed resolutions which in effect allow the Terminal District to have jurisdiction in these parishes over matters concerning the projects. The Terminal District furnished a resolution dated August 9, 1971, accepting "Acts of Assurance of Agreement and Designation" from Assumption and Terrebonne Parishes. These documents were received on November 12, 1971, and are presently under review. Supplemental assurances may be required because of the following public laws: (1) Public Law 91-611, Section 221, required assurances that local agencies pay damages for non-compliance with the project assurances. Additionally, local interests must agree that the assurances can be enforced in a United States District Court. (2) Local interests are required to comply with the "Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970," Public Law 91-646. Compliance with this law will incur a cost to local interests, presently estimated at $12,- 600. Terminal facilities. Two large and three small public wharves at MKORGAN City are open for use by all without charge. In addition, there are numerous privately-owned facilities located on both banks of the lower Atchafalaya River in Morgan City and Berwick, La., and along Bayou Boeuf and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. Fabrication and repair facilities are located on Bayous Beouf and Black. Adequate acreage is available for expansion of existing terminals and construction of new terminals along Bayou Chene, Boeuf, and Black, and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. Public and private terminals in the project area are adequately connected with rail, water and highway transportation facilities. No additional public wharves are required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Planning funds were made available late in fiscal year 1970. The general design memorandum is presently under review and preconstruction planning is expected to be completed in fiscal year 1973. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction has not been initiated. 11-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 3. ATCHAFALAYA RIVER, MORGAN CITY TO GULF OF MEXICO, LA. Location.

(See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 1116 and 1274; Mississippi River Commission alluvial valley maps; Donaldsonville, White Castle, Napoleonville, Thibodaux, and Lac des Allemands quadrangles; and Geological Survey maps, Houma, Cutoff, Lake Felicity, Mink Bayou, Leeville, and Belle Pass quadrangles.) Previous projects. For details see page 564 of 1963 Annual Report. Existing project. Provides for permanent closure of head of bayou without a lock, a channel 6 feet deep and 60 feet wide from Canal Boulevard in Thibodaux to Lockport, and from Lrose to Gulf of Mexico with a jettied entrance at Belle Pass, and the closure of Pass Fourchon. These improvements are about 50.5 miles long, and the modification for July 14, 1960, provides for an additional 66 miles of improvement as follows: a 12- by 125- foot channel, extending from Gulf Intracoastal Waterway at mile 37.2 west of Harvey lock to enter Bayou Lafourche below highway bridge at Leeville at about mile 12; a 12- by 125-foot channel in Bayou Lafourche from point of junction with proposed 12- by 125-foot channel to 12-foot depth contour in gulf; modification and extension of existing jetties from 6- to 12-foot contour, if found advisable to reduce maintenance dredging in the gulf; and a channel 9 by 100 feet in Bayou Lafourche from Leeville to vicinity of lower limits of Golden Meadow; and a 12- by 125-foot channel from Bayou Lafourche through Southwestern Louisiana Canal to and through Bayou Rigaud to connect with enlargement of Bayou Rigaud recommended under project "Barataria Bay Waterway, La." Normal range of tide is 10 inches at mouth and 3 inches at head; from severe rains, 3 to 10 feet at head; from hurricanes, up to 10 feet at mouth. Estimated cost for new work (July 1972) is $8,920,000, Federal, and $3,780,000, non-Federal. In addition, Coast Guard is to provide navigation aids at an estimated cost of $31,000. Excavation of a channel 6 feet deep and 60 feet wide from Thibodaux to Gulf Intracoastal Waterway at Lockport is considered inactive and excluded from foregoing cost estimate. Estimated cost of this portion (July 1972) is $733,000. Local cooperation. Assurances received and accepted on all items of work in the project. Golden Meadow to gulf: Local agency has conveyed to the United States title to all necessary channel and spoil easements. Leeville to Grand Isle: No action 11-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 is apparent on this stretch by either the Lafourche Parish Police Jury, the Jefferson Parish Council, the local assurers, or the State of Louisiana, Department of Public Works. Rights-of-way are not available due to multiplicity and other complications of ownership. Auxiliary channel: Through minor alinement and/or changes deeds were acquired by the Lafourche Parish Police Jury for all required rights-of-way. A right-of-entry was granted by resolution of the Police Jury dated May 10, 1972; however, there are still obstructions within the right-of-way. Present program scheduling is based on right-of-way being cleared by December 1972. Removal of the obstructions is being coordinated with the Lafourche Parish Police Jury. Terminal facilities. There are numerous private warehouses, wharves, and stiff-leg derricks for handling cane along bayou. At Lockport, Barker Barge Line has a barge wharf with covered shed, and Southern Pacific Railroad maintains a large wharf with covered shed. At Golden Meadow each of the seafood canneries has docking facilities suitable for its needs. Four oil companies have docks at Leeville for transferring production of Leeville oil fields to barges. Facilities considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work by hired labor consisted of general engineering and planning. Maintenance by hired labor consisted of condition and operation studies and channel patrol. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of existing project was initiated in fiscal Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of existing project was initiated in fiscal year 1939 and is 16 percent complete. Dredging between Larose, La., and Gulf of Mexico was completed in 1939 and that segment between Lockport and Napoleonville, La., is in an inactive status due to lack of right-of-way and spoil area. Jetties at mouth of Belle Pass were completed in 1939, and later damaged by storm action, which required placement of additional stone adjacent to both sides of steel sheet pile jetties in 1940, and repair and extension of jetties in 1941. During fiscal year 1948 stone jetties were repaired and extended inland about 700 feet from shoreline; and steel sheet pile section was strengthened for about 250 feet gulfward of stone jetties, by placement of stone on both gulf and bayou sides. On May 31, 1949, an automatic tide gage for recording hurricane and storm tides was installed. Modification of July 14, 1960, was initiated in February 1963 and is 12 percent complete, with 12-foot contour in Gulf of Mexico, the 9- by 100-foot channel completed in August 1966 from Golden Meadow to Leeville, and the 9- by 100-foot channel from Golden Meadow to Leeville completed in August 1966. Total cost of existing project to June 30, 1972. was $2,006,804 of which $1,192,676 was for new work and $814,128 for maintenance. In addition, $75,563 has been expended for rehabilitation (Code 820). The Greater Lafourche Port Commission requested, and was granted a permit to dredge a new channel 20 by 300 feet wide west of the existing channel from mile 0.76 in Bayou Lafourche to the 20-foot depth in the gulf, and to close the existing jettied channel after completion of the new channel. This work was completed in March 1968 and the Post Commission must maintain the channel at no less than 12 by 125 feet. 8. BAYOU SEGNETTE WATERWAY, LA. Location. Bayou Segnette Waterway is a natural water traffic route, located in the lowlands of Jefferson Parish, La., just south of the Mississippi River, oppostie New Orleans. The waterway heads at the mouth of an artificial canal known as Company or Westwego Canal, and ends where Bayou Villars is cut by the Intracoastal Waterway. The channel prior to improvement included or traversed in turn, Bayou Segnette, Bayou Bordeaux, Lake Salvador, and Bayou Villars, and is 13.5 miles long. Existing project. The plan of improvement provides for a channel dredged to a depth of 9 feet below mean low Gulf level over a bottom width of 60 feet, commencing at the southern end of Company Canal and following the existing channel of Bayou Segnette (including its cut-offs) southward to approximately mile 6.4; thence southerly via a new landcut lying to the east of Lake Salvador to Bayou Villars. The total length of improvement is 12.2 miles. The channel is to be maintained to a depth of 6 feet until such time as, in the discretion of the Chief of Engineers, maintenance to a greater depth not to exceed 9 feet is economically advisable. The estimate of cost (revised in 1957) is $374,- 000. Local cooperation. Local interests are required to furnish without cost to the United States all lands, easements, rights-of-way and suitable spoildisposal areas necessary for the new work and for subsequent maintenance when and as required; accomplish and maintain without cost to the United States all necessary alterations in pipelines, and drainage and other facilities; hold and save the United States free from damages due to construction and maintenance of the improvements; maintain Company Canal free from vegetative growth obstructive to navigation and provide and maintain therein a minimum depth of 7 feet or a depth 11-6 NEW ORLEANS, LA., DISTRICT equivalent to that maintained in the Federal channel, whichever is the lesser, for a width of at least 30 feet, with transit or published rates open to all on equal terms; provide and maintain a public wharf, not less than 20 feet wide and 200 feet long near the head of Bayou Segnette, accessible by highway and open to all on equal terms; and cooperate with the Corps of Engineers in preventing the release of water-hyacinths and other growths obstructive to navigation from local drainage ditches into the proposed improvement. Assurances of local cooperation accepted on August 20, 1956. Local interests have not conveyed acceptable easements to the United States. In July 1966, the Chief of Engineers advised the District Engineer that he is not authorized to contract for any future construction in the project unless prior thereto acceptable land interests are obtained and made available to the United States. The local agency has upon request provided usable spoil-disposal areas for maintenance dredging. Terminal facilities. None. Operations and results during fiscal year. Hired labor forces conducted reconnaisance surveys. Maintenance by contract: Dredging intermittently from miles 0.0 (Bayou Villars) to miles 12.1 (Westwego), by two dredges from the period July 30 to October 3, 1971. The dredges McClain and Lafitte restored 12 miles of waterway. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction was initiated January 10, 1957, and is 64 percent complete.

Waterway is routed 22.6 miles along Schooner Bayou Cutoff, Schooner Bayou, Six Mile Canal, Bell Isle Canal, and Freshwater Bayou. Existing project. Provides for dredging a new 12- by 125-foot channel from Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, mile 161.2 west of Harvey lock, to 12- foot contour in Gulf of Mexico near Freshwater Bayou, construction of an 84- by 600-foot lock with a depth of 16 feet over sill near Gulf of Mexico; and construction of jetties from shoreline to 6-foot depth contour in Gulf of Mexico, if maintenance dredging of channel without jetties proves to be more expensive than construction and maintenance of jetties. Until such determination has been made, offshore channel should be dredged and maintained to provide a 12- by 250-foot channel. In event jetties are provided, offshore section should then be maintained to 12- by 125-foot project in jettied reach, and 250 feet beyond. Cost of existing project, completed in 1968, except for construction of jetties at a later date, if necessary, was $7,116,224 Federal and a $16,060 cash contribution. Estimated cost of construction of jetties (July 1971) is $3,118,100. Estimated non-Federal cost for the existing project is $171,000. In addition, Coast Guard is to provide navigational aids at an estimated cost of $19,100. Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Extensive public and private terminal and transfer facilities do not exist in area, and none would be required for improved channel. Private terminals exist at site of oil and gas operations in area and sufficient private and public wharf facilities are along Gulf Intracoastal Waterway and its connecting waterways. Sites are available along proposed improvement for construction of any additional private and public terminals that might be required for utilization of channel. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance by hired labor consisted of operation and ordinary repairs to lock, and condition and operation studies. Hired labor forces also placed approximately 1,050 tons of riprap in the lock chamber. Maintenance by contract consisted of two contracts being awarded for dredging in Freshwater Bayou channel and Franklin Avenue canal, but work was not initiated this fiscal year. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction was initiated April 1963 and completed August 1968, except for construction of jetties at a later date, if required to reduce the cost of maintenance dredging. 16. GULF INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY BETWEEN APALACHEE BAY, FLA., AND MEXICAN BORDER (NEW ORLEANS DIST.) Location. Section of Gulf Intracoastal Waterway within New Orleans District extends from Lake Borgne Light 29 near mouth of Rigolets, to Sabine River, La., and Tex.

Alternative connection with Mississippi River in vicinity of Algiers, La., about 10.3 miles below Harvey lock, consisting of a lock and landcut about 9 miles long intersecting Intracoastal Waterway at about mile 6, is complete. An alternative route from Mississippi River follows Bayou Plaquemine passing Indian 11-11 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Village, La., and continuing on through lower Grand River to and through a lock at Bayou Sorrel in East Atchafalaya basin protection levee, thence through levee borrow pit to Berwick Bay; and thence through Berwick Bay to Morgan City, La., a total of 56 miles. This alternative route was enlarged from vicinity of Morgan City to Indian Village, La., and extended from Indian Village, La., through Bayou Grosse Tete and a new landcut to and through a new terminal lock and entrance channel to Mississippi River in vicinity of Port Allen, La., a total of 65 miles. Section from Atchafalaya River to Vermilion River, La., begins at western end of Mississippi-Atchafalaya section and follows Atchafalaya River about 2.5 miles, portions of Little Wax Bayou, Possum Bayou, cutoffs, and landcut passing through North Bend Plantation of Bayou Bartholomew, Bayou Bartholomew to Little Bay, a landcut skirting north edge of Cote Blanche Island and west edge of Weeks Island, to Vermilion River, about 24 miles below Abbeville, La., a total of about 63.6 miles. Franklin Canal, St. Mary Parish, La., extends southwesterly from Franklin, La., on Bayou Teche, for 5.5 miles to Bayou Portage, a section of "The Inland Waterway from Franklin to the Mermentau River, La.," and through bayou for 0.75 mile to Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, 121 miles west of Harvey lock. Section from Vermilion River to Mermentau River, La., begins at weatern end of Atchafalaya-Vermilion section and follows Vermilion River 1.3 miles, a part of Schooner Bayou cutoff canal, and a landcut running generally northwesterly to Mermentau River at a point about 0.5 mile above its entrance into Grand Lake and about 16 miles below town of Lake Arthur, La., a total of about 42.7 miles. Vermilion lock was constructed about 1.75 miles west of Vermilion River to prevent ingress of salt water from Vermilion Bay. Section from Mermentau River to Calcasieu River, La., begins at western end of Vermilion-Mermentau section and follows Mermentau River upstream for about 1.5 miles, a landcut running west-southwesterly to Lake Misere, passing north of lake and Bayou Misere, westerly to Sweet Lake, south and west of Sweet Lake, northwesterly to Bayou Tete Bois, through Bayou Tete Bois, Black Bayou, and cutoffs to a point on Calcasieu River about 16.6 miles below city of Lake Charles, La., a total of about 37.1 miles. Calcasieu lock was constructed near intersection of Calcasieu River and Intracoastal Waterway, mile 238 west of Harvey lock, Calcasieu River to Sabine River, La. and Tex., begins at western end of Mermentau- Calcasieu section, and follows Calcasieu River upstream about 1.6 miles, a landcut running southwesterly 2.8 miles, thence west 22 miles to Sabin River at a point about 3 miles below Orange, Tex., a total of about 27.1 miles.

Previous projects. For details see page 544 of 1963 Annual Report. Existing project. Provides for a waterway, within the district, from Lake Borgne to Sabine River by the following improvements: a channel 16 feet deep and 150 feet wide, from Mississippi River to Atchafalaya River, except in vicinity of Houma, mile 50.5 to 63.5, which is to be maintained at 12 by 125 feet; a channel 16 by 150 feet through bypass route around Houma, La., mile 50.5 to 63.5, and through alternative connection in Mississippi River below Algiers, La., about 9 miles long, a channel 16 by 200 feet from Atchafalaya River to Sabine River; a channel 12 by 150 feet in section between Lake Borgne Light No. 29 and New Orleans (via landcut through marsh and Inner Harbor navigation canal), 33.1 miles long; an alternative route 9 feet deep by 100 feet wide between Lake Borgne Light No. 29 and New Orleans (via Rigolets, Lake Pontchartrain, and Inner Harbor navigation canal), 40.5 miles long; a channel 12 feet deep and 125 feet wide for Plaquemine-Morgan City alternative route from Mississippi-Atchafalaya section of waterway, in vicinity of Morgan City, through Lower Atchafalaya River (Berwick Bay) and borrow pit of East Atchafalaya protection levee to and through Bayou Sorrel lock which was constructed under existing project "Flood control, Mississippi River and tributaries," thence through Lower Grand River to Indian Village, and thence by way of Bayou Grosse Tete and a new landcut to and through a new terminal lock and entrance channel to Mississippi River in vicinity of Port Allen, La., opposite lower limit of Port Baton Rouge; a channel 9 feet deep and 100 feet wide from Indian Village on Plaquemine-Morgan City alternative route through Bayou Plaquemine and Plaquemine lock to Mississippi River at Plaquemine, La., improvement of Franklin Canal as a connecting channel from Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (mile 121) to Franklin, La., to afford a channel 8 feet deep and generally 60 feet wide with a width of 100 feet in its upper 300 feet; and a salt-water guard lock (Calcasieu lock) in waterway at mile 238 west of Harvey lock. Project also provides for: widening at bends; passing places; mooring basins; locks or guard locks; such railroad bridges over artificial cuts as are necessary; purchase of pipeline dredge; construction and operation of new drainage canals 11-12 NEW ORLEANS, LA., DISTRICT and pumping facilities to restore parish drainage systems were intercepted; construction of movable dredges at Missouri Pacific Railroad and State Highways 31 and 996 (in lieu of State Highway Bridge 31, a tunnel was constructed, and additional cost over estimated cost of bridge was borne by local interests); fixed-trestle bridges for crossing proposed landside drainage canals; lift bridges at Louisiana Highway 168, Port Allen, La., at Texas & Pacific Railway, Port Allen, La., and at Texas & Pacific Railway, Morley, La.; and for annual payments to Board of Commissioners of Port of New Orleans for use of a portion of Inner Harbor navigation canal. Length of waterway within district is 384.1 miles via northerly or Port Allen route, and 299.4 miles via southerly or Harvey Canal route. Normal range of tide, 10 inches; extreme range, 14 inches. A severe storm may cause a high tide of from 6 to 9 feet. Estimated cost for new work, exclusive of amounts expended on previous projects, is $108,- 493,827 Federal and $17,442,600 non-Federal, divided as follows: Algiers lock and canal, completed June 1961, $15,895,924 Federal, and $2,- 185,000 non-Federal; Plaquemine-Morgan City route, completed October 1963, $26,869,372 Federal, and $2,250,000 non-Federal; and remainder of waterway (July 1972), $65,728,531 Federal and $13,007,600 non-Federal, including $40,900,000 Federal and $13,000,000 non-Federal for modification of October 1962, and $9,360,000 Federal and $7,600 non-Federal for replacement of Vermilion Lock. In addition, the Coast Guard is to provide navigation aids at an estimated cost of $66,000. Construction of bulkheads and jetties at Lake Borgne and Chef Menteur, La., is considered inactive and excluded from foregoing cost estimate. Estimated cost (1956) of this item is $440,000. Construction of a double-leaf bascule, four-lane highway bridge provided for under this project has become unnecessary because portion of project over which bridge was to be constructed was incorporated in project "Mississippi River-Gulf Outlet" which provides for a larger bridge. Bayou Sorrel and Bayou Boeuf locks were constructed and are being maintained and operated with flood control, Mississippi River and tributaries, funds. Therefore, construction, maintenance, and operation costs are not included in approved estimates referred to heretofore. (See table 11-E at end of chapter for locks on Gulf Intracoastal Waterway in New Orleans District.) Local cooperation. Algiers lock and canal: All assurances required for construction were furnished. Local agency has failed to convey all fee and easement tracts with acceptable title evidence to the United States. However, authority has been received to accept the interests conveyed as best available from local agency with the understanding that the United States rely upon assurances of local cooperation should any claims against the United States occur as a result of failure of local agency to complete transfer of title. Plaquemine-Morgan City alternative route: All assurances required for construction were furnished. Title by United States has been acquired to all but 35 tracts, for which local agency failed to comply fully with curative requirements in title certificate. Authority was given to accept the tracts conveyed as best available from local interests and to rely upon assurances of local cooperation furnished by local agency should any claims against the United States occur as a result of failure of local agency to complete transfer of title. Modification authorized by River and Harbor Act of 1962: Local interests must furnish lands, rights-of-way, and spoil-disposal areas for enlargement and future maintenance of project, make alterations to utilities; construct, maintain, and operate all bridges desired in connection with bypass channel around Houma, La.; and hold the United States free from damages. Assurances were requested in April 1963; however, none of 11 local agencies involved has furnished assurances requested. Main objection of participation is requirement that local interests be responsible for alteration of utilities. Replacement of Vermillion lock: Local interests are to provide without cost to the United States all lands, easements and rights-of-way required for construction and subsequent maintenance of the replacement lock and approach channels thereto, and hold the United States free from damages due to construction and maintenance of the project, including erosion of the channel beyond the rights-of-way furnished for the replacement lock and the approach channels thereto. Assurances of local cooperation for the replacement of the existing Vermilion lock were requested of the Vermilion Parish Police Jury on September 10, 1968. The Police Jury, by letter dated April 9, 1969, has indicated its willingness and capability of providing the requirements of local cooperation for the project, when funds are available. Terminal facilities. Large terminal and transfer facilities, suitable for receiving and shipping commodities by barge, are available at principal cities in Louisiana; namely, New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Harvey, Morgan City, and Lake Charles. Facilities at New Orleans are on Inner Harbor navigation canal. Canal and facilities were leased from Board of Commissioners, Port of New Orleans, April 1, 1944, and are now operated by the United States, toll free, 24 hours per day. At Morgan City, on Atchafalaya River, there are two large and three 11-13 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 small wharves open to all without charge. Otherwise facilities are confined to privately owned piers, wharves, or oil docks. Facilities considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work by hired labor: Work on the Vermilion lock general design memorandum recommended later in the fiscal year as a result of approval by a Chief of Engineers of a lock size. The general design memorandum is essentially 50 percent completed and work is being prosecuted on the basis of new lock 75 feet wide by 1200 feet long with a sill at - 15.0, mean low gulf, to be operated in combination with the existing lock. A special letter report respecting the refurbishment of the existing lock is being prepared by the New Orleans District in order to acquire approval of this change in project scope by the Secretary of the Army. Locks, bridges, and waterways were operated and maintained. Fender systems were repaired at Algiers lock and various lock repairs were made at Calcasieu, Port Allen, and Vermilion locks. Dewatering work was done also at Port Allen and Vermilion locks. Maintenance by hired labor: Riprap repairs in by-pass channel near spare gate and northeast side of channel by Bayou Chene was accomplished during the period April 3 to 10, 1972. Placed riprap on south bank, Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, east of Bayou Lafourche, Larose, Louisiana commenced September 15 and was completed September 29, 1971. Dredging included removing 109,145 cubic yards of material to restore navigable depths in Port Allen lock forebays for the period July 1 to July 5, 1971, by the dredge Jadwin. Cleaning gate pits at Harvey canal and Inner Harbor navigation canal was accomplished during the period August 23 to 26, 1971. Maintenance by contract: Repairs to the Florida Avenue and St. Claude Avenue bridges, Inner Harbor navigation canal commenced March 13, 1972 and is 73 percent complete. This work has been suspended as of May 5, 1972. Emergency repairs were also initiated at the Inner Harbor navigation canal lock April 9, 1972, and work is 99 percent complete. A contract for the replacement of 50-ton derrick machinery with new equipment at Harvey lock commenced December 13, 1971 and was completed January 10, 1972. Repairing and resurfacing existing roadway and parking areas on the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers Reservation at Harvey lock continued from last fiscal year and was completed July 7, 1971. Dredging by contract: Removed 56,000 cubic yards at the by-pass channel adjacent to Vermilion lock during the period August 22 to September 3, 1971; deredging at mile 123 WHL in the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway commenced on September 26 and was completed September 30, 1971 with approximately 37,300 cubic yards of debris being removed; restoration of dike in western end of Vermilion lock, by-pass channel, during the period November 13 to 15, 1971 consisted of placing approximately 20,000 cubic yards of shoal material. Shoal was removed from the forebay at Port Allen lock and below Bayou Sorrel lock. The dredge Armadillo II removed 77,225 cubic yards from Port Allen lock forebay July 31 to August 9, 1971 and removed 39,001 cubic yards from below Bayou Sorrel lock during the period October 7 to 13, 1971. The dredge Vicksberg removed 123,090 cubic yards of material intermittently from the Algiers, Harvey, Industrial canal locks, and other locations during the period April 15 to September 23, 1971. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction was initiated July 1929 and project as modified is 54 percent complete. For information on completion of segments of waterway, see 1965 Annual Report, pages 523 and 524. Work remaining to complete the project consists of enlarging waterway as provided by 1962 River and Harbor Act, and replacement of Vermilion lock. Construction of bulkheads at Lake Borgne and Chef Menteur are inactive features as this work has not been necessary. Total cost of existing project to June 30, 1972, was $117,971,659, of which $58,392,370 was for new work, $27,890,247 for maintenance, and $31,- 689,041 for operation and care of locks and bridges. In addition, $340,159 for new work and $7,005 for maintenance was expended from contributed funds. 17. HOUMA NAVIGATION CANAL, LA. Location. Extends from Gulf Intracoastal Waterway at mile 59.5 west of Harvey lock southerly about 16 miles, thence southeasterly 10.5 miles to Terrebonne Bay, and 9.5 miles across bay to deep water in Cat Island Pass. At mile 11.3 above Cat Island Pass, Houma navigation canal crosses Bayou Petit Caillou, and 20 miles above Cat Island Pass it crosses Bayou Grand Caillou. No other major waterways are crossed by Houma navigation canal. (See Army Engineer and Geological Survey quadrangle maps; Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 1050, 1116, and 1116A; and Coast and Geodetic Charts 1274 and 1275, and sheet 7 of "Navigation Maps of Intracoastal Waterway, Gulf Section, New Orleans, La., to Port Arthur, Tex.," published by Mississippi River Commission.) Existing project. Provides that United States assume maintenance and operation of Houma navigation canal, constructed by Parish of Terrebonne, to dimensions of 15 by 150 feet. Normal 11-14 NEW ORLEANS, LA., DISTRICT range of tide is 10 inches at mouth and 4 inches at Houma; extreme range, 14 inches at mough and 6 inches at Houma; wind and tide, 1 to 3 feet at mouth; flood, 3 to 4 feet in upper section. Local cooperation. Local interests must furnish lands and rights-of-way for maintenance of canal and for establishment and maintenance of aids to navigation; furnish suitable spoil-disposal areas; provide alterations to facilities; hold the United States free from damages; and maintain and operate all bridges under construction or to be constructed across the canal. Local interests (under Chief of Engineers' interpretation of H. Doc. 583, 87th Cong., 2d sess.) will not be required to convey title of canal to United States. Assurances were furnished and accepted April 12, 1963. Local cooperating body has furnished temporary spoil areas as required for maintenance dredging of canal. Terminal facilities. Privately owned and operated facilities are adequate for existing commerce which is mainly: seafood plants; oil companies and oil company supplies; sugar refining; marine repair shops and towing. Southern Pacific Lines have dock facilities in Houma, Louisiana. Ample space exists for expansion of existing facilities, or for the construction of new wharves and appurtenances. Operations and results during fiscal year. Hired labor forces continued routine surveys and condition studies. Maintenance by contract consisted of dredging intermittently between miles 11.0 and minus 3.7 (Cat Island Pass), during the period April 24 to June 30, 1972. The dredge Natchez, removed a total of 845,670 cubic yards of material. Condition at end of fiscal year. Maintenance by the United States commenced in November 1964. 18. LITTLE CAILLOU BAYOU, LA. Location. Little Caillou Bayou has its source in Bayou Terrebonne, 4.5 miles below Houma, La., and flows 32.8 miles southerly to Terrebonne Bay. (See U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart No. 1116 and U.S. Geological Survey maps, Houma and Dulac quadrangles.) Existing project. Provides for a channel 5 feet deep at mean low water by 40 feet wide on the bottom from the head of the bayou, at Bayou Terrebonne, to Robinson Canal, about 20 miles. The normal fluctuation of tide is 3 to 6 inches, but winds may raise or lower the water surface about 1 foot. The cost of new work, completed in 1929, was $77,761. Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Freight is unloaded directly on or from the banks. This method is considered satisfactory for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Hired labor forces carried on routine surveys. Maintenance by contract consisted of dredging between mile 6.0 and mile 16.3, (Terrebonne Parish) during the period April 26 to June 30, 1972. The dredges Atlas No. 1 and Bobby James removed a total of 90.791 cubic yards of material. Condition at end of fiscal year. In 1929, the channel was dredged from the head of the bayou (confluence with Bayou Terrebonne) to Robinson Canal, 20.6 miles, obtaining a channel 5 feet deep at mean low gulf by 40 feet wide on the bottom, and completing the project. 19. MERMENTAU RIVER, BAYOU NEZPIQUE, AND BAYOU DES CANNES, LA. Location. Mermentau River is formed by junction of Bayous des Cannes and Nezpique, 2.25 miles above Mermentau, La., flows southwesterly, and empties into the Gulf of Mexico. Bayou Nezpique rises in Evangeline Parish, flows southerly and empties into Mermentau River. Bayou des Cannes rises in Evangeline Parish, flows southsouthwesterly and empties into Mermentau River. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 1116 and 1278, and Geological Survey maps, Evangeline, Hathaway, Mermentau, Jennings, Lake Arthur, Gueydan, Thornwell, Latania Lake, Catfish Lake, Grand Cheniere, Bayou Labauve quadrangles.)

Provides a 12- by 125-foot channel in Mermentau River from Gulf Intracoastal Waterway to Lake Arthur; a 12- by 200-foot channel through Lake Arthur and a 12- by 125 foot channel from upper end of Lake Arthur to junction of the Mermentau River and Bayous Nezpique and des Cannes; replacement of existing Lake Arthur highway bridge over Mermentau River with new bridge constructed to current highway standards and with vertical and horizontal clearances of 50 and 200 feet, respectively; and enlargement and realinement of Bayous Nezpique and des Cannes, to provide a 12- by 125-foot waterway from Interstate Highway 10 to the Mermentau River. Mean range of tide on Mermentau River near mouth is 10 inches and near head about 3 inches, extreme ranges being 14 and 5 inches, respectively. Variation of water surface near mouth may be as much as 7 and 8 feet, due to hurricanes on gulf and near head from 8 to 12 feet, due to freshets. Under ordinary conditions, range of tide on Bayous Nezpique and des Cannes is about 3 inches at mouth and nothing at head. Estimated cost for new work (July 1972) is $6,110,000 Federal and $1,618,000 non-Federal, including a cash contribution of $740,000. In addition the 11-15 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Coast Guard is to provide navigation aids at a cost of $51,000. Local cooperation. Local interests shall agree to: provide all lands for construction and maintenance and spoil-retaining works or the costs of such works; hold the United States free from damage due to the project; design and construct a replacement highway bridge at Lake Arthur, La.; bear 17.1 percent of the costs ($740,000 cash contribution), and operate and maintain the bridge; provide and maintain terminal facilities; and accomplish and maintain all modifications to utilities. The improvement of the Mermentau River or of Bayou Nezpique or Bayou des Cannes, may be undertaken independently as the local cooperation therefor is provided, concurrent with, or subsequent to, replacement of the Lake Arthur highway bridge. Assurances have been furnished by the Acadia, Jefferson Davis and Vermilion Parish Police Juries and the Louisiana Department of Highways. The State of Louisiana, Department of Public Works, has furnished assurances for Cameron Parish on behalf of the Police Jury; however, that part of provision (a) dealing with retaining dikes, bulkheads and embankments was not included due to objections of state agencies. Terminal facilities. Several small, privately owned wharves at Grand Cheniere and a public terminal at town of Lake Arthur. Privately owned terminals for transferring crude oil to barges are: one on Lake Arthur near town of Lake Arthur; one on Mermentau River near town of Mermentau; two on Bayou Nezpique near Jennings; and four on Bayou des Cannes; one near Evangeline, one at Mermentau, and two near Jennings. Facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. A contract for replacement of the Mermentau River bridge at Lake Arthur, Abbeville highway, Louisiana, route 14 was awarded to the State of Louisiana and was commenced on May 15, 1972, with only preliminary work accomplished to date. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction not initiated. Total cost of existing project on June 30, 1972, was $274,381 for new work. 20. MERMENTAU RIVER, LA. Location. Work covered by this project is 35 to 70 miles southeast of Lake Charles, La., along lower Mermentau River below Grand Lake, mile 25, to Gulf of Mexico; Inland Waterway from Vermilion Bay to White Lake, White Lake to Grand Lake, and from Schooner Bayou to Intracoastal Waterway- gulf section (Schooner Bayou cutoff); North Prong of Schooner Bayou; and waterway from White Lake to Pecan Island, La., and artificial canal, extending from 5-foot depth contour in White Lake, almost due south for about 1.8 miles to Pecan Island. (See Chart and Geodetic Survey Charts 1277 and 1278, and Geological Survey maps.) Existing project. Flood control, navigation, irrigation, and salinity control in coastal marsh of lower Mermentau River Basin and channel enlargement of lower Mermentau River below Grand Lake, mile 25, to a minimum section of 3,000 square feet below mean low gulf level for discharge of floodflows; construction of a sector gated control structure of Catfish Point, mile 24 above mouth of Mermentau River, for discharge of floodflows and control of tidalflows and salt-water intrusion in Mermentau River; channel enlargement and realinement of Inland Waterway from Vermilion Bay to White Lake, 12.04 miles, and from White Lake to Grand Lake, 6.14 miles, to a minimum section of 3,000 square feet below mean low gulf level or interflow between lakes and discharge of floodflows; construction of a sector gated control structure in enlarged channel immediately north of abandoned Schooner Bayou lock reservation for discharge of floodflows and control of tidalflows and salt-water intrusion; channel enlargement of North Prong of Schooner Bayou and Schooner Bayou cutofft, 6.69 miles, to 6 by 60 feet, mean low gulf level, for navigation purposes; and maintenance of existing 5- by 40-foot, mean low gulf level, waterway from White Lake to Pecan Island, La., 1.8 miles long, for navigation. In addition, project provides for incorporation of that section of project, "Inland Waterway from Franklin, La., to Mermentau River," west of Vermilion Bay, a waterway that includes Schooner Bayou lock. Project was reclassified as an "Operation and Maintenance, General" project under category, "Navigation (Locks, Dams, Reservoirs, and Canals)" by authority of Chief of Engineers, April 23, 1956. Because of failure of both east and west gates, Schooner Bayou lock was closed by a dike across east approach channel and traffic routed through new control structure. Under ordinary conditions mean range of tide on Mermentau River near mouth is 1.6 feet and near head about 3 inches. Variation of water surface near the mouth may be as much as 7 or 8 feet, due to hurricanes on the gulf, and near head from 8 to 12 feet, due to freshets. Cost of new work, completed in 1956, was $4,631,910. Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Privately owned and operated facilities are adequate along the Mermentau River and Bayous Nezpique and des Cannes for the principal commodities transported, which is 11-16 NEW ORLEANS, LA., DISTRICT petroleum and its products. A public warf is located at Lake Arthur, Louisiana, but due to insufficient use it has not been maintained and in its present condition is not usable. Sites for future expansion of these facilities are available and will be provided by non-Federal interests as required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Hired labor continued operation and maintenance of Schooner Bayou and Catfish Point Control structures. At Schooner Bayou, 650 tons of riprap were placed in the immediate vicinity of the two structures during the period May 8 to 22, 1972. Hired labor forces also placed 800 tons of riprap at Catfish Point control structure in the immediate vicinity of the structure and installed three mooring clusters in the northeast approach bay during the period April 3 to 26, 1972. Maintenance repairs at both installations consisted of repairing and installing fender systems in various locations. Condition at end of fiscal year.

Terminal Facilities. None. Will be furnished if necessary. Operations and results during fiscal year. Hired labor forces conducted investigations, surveys, bank stability analyses, and preparation of plans and specifications. A contract for construction of a system of six stone dikes along the left descending bank of Bayou Cocodrie, Louisiana, mile 21.8, commenced October 21, 1971 and was completed June 5, 1972. This bend was too sharp for favorable navigation conditions and the dike system was designed to flatten the bend. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of the lower 31 miles was initiated November 12, 1968, and is 20 percent complete with 12,900 linear feet of bank protected. 2 6. RED RIVER BELOW FULTON, ARK. Location. Red River rises in arid regions of eastern New Mexico, flows easterly and southeasterly for 1,300 miles, and enters Atchafalaya and Old Rivers and the Mississippi River at Red River Landing, La., via Old River. (See Geological Survey State maps and Mississippi River Commission alluvial valley quadrangle maps.) Previous project. For details see page 572, 1957 Annual Report. Existing project. Continuing improvement of Red River from Fulton, Ark., to Atchafalaya River, La., 455.6 miles, by systematic clearing of banks, snagging, dredging shoals, building levees (either alone or in cooperation with riparian states), closing outlets, revetting caving banks, and preventing injurious cutoffs. Lower end of this project, exclusive of Overton-Red River Waterway, is at Old River, 7.6 miles west of Mississippi River. No proposed channel dimensions are given. Floods ordinarily cause fluctuations of stage between high and low water of from 30 to 45 feet; unusual floods occasionally increase this range about 10 feet. Local cooperation. None required. Terminal facilities. None. Operations and results during fiscal year. Hired labor forces conducted stream gaging and reconnaissance surveys. Condition at end of fiscal year.

The assurances were accepted by the United States on April 15, 1969. Terminal facilities. Adequate facilities are to be provided and maintained by local interests. Operations and results during fiscal year. Hired labor continued planning for the design memorandum. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction has not been initiated. 29. REMOVING WATER-HYACINTH, LA. Location. Lakes and streams tributary to the gulf coast. Existing project. Removal of plants from navigable waters of Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas, so far as they are or may become an obstruction to navigation, by any mechanical, chemical, or other means whatsoever; for construction and operation of boats equipped with suitable machinery for such removal; and construction and operation of booms to prevent plants drifting from one stream to another. Local cooperation. None required Operations and results during fiscal year. Maximum use of funds available was made by using chemical methods of destruction with mechanical equipment held in reserve for use only when hyacinth jams necessitate it. Maintenance continued in main waterways and principal tributaries to prevent water hyacinth obstructions and damage to navigation. Prevention maintenance work was carried out in secondary streams and feeder areas whenever possible. In some cases where alligatorweed has previously kept water-hyacinth fringes confined along the banks, attack of the alligatorweed flea beetles (agasicles) has reduced its competitiveness and water-hyacinths are multiplying and spreading in the waterways. A total of 7,800 acres of water-hyacinth were treated by chemical and mechanical methods of Bayou Black, Lake Cataouatche and feeder streams, Lake des Allemands area, the Port Allen-Morgan City Route and Alternate Route of the GIWW, Lake Dauterive and Grand Lake areas, Bayou Penchant-Bayou Copasaw area, the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, Bayou Lafourche, Bayou Lacassine and Bayou Teche. Due to very mild winters, it has been necessary to treat most areas three times during the year. Condition at end of fiscal year. From 1900 to 1902 a boat with suitable machinery for destroying hyacinth by crushing was operated. From that time until 1937 hyacinths were destroyed through use of a solution of arsenic and caustic soda which was sprayed on vegetation, removal by hand crews, and controlled in their movements by means of booms and barricades. Use of arsenic was discontinued and hand removal supplanted by use of mechanical equipment in conjunction with chemical spray (2, 4-dichlorophenoxy-acetic acid). Use of booms and barricades has been discontinued. Present methods of control are by means of mechanical rotary saw-type destroyers, and chemical treatment. Excellent results are being obtained on water- hyacinths by these methods. 30. TANGIPAHOA RIVER, LA. Location. Originates in State of Mississippi and flows southerly to Lake Pontchartrain, La., about 110 miles.

The Governor of Louisiana designated the Louisiana Department of Public Works as agency to coordinate efforts of local interests to see that local commitments are carried out promptly. The Orleans Levee District executed an acceptable Act of Assurance on July 27, 1966, for entire barrier plan and that portion of the Chalmette Area plan in Orleans Parish. The Lake Borgne Basin Levee District and St. Bernard Parish Police Jury executed an Act of Assurance jointly on August 16, 1966, for the Chalmette Area plan in St. Bernard Parish. On March 13, 1967, supplemental assurances were requested of the Lake Borgne Basin Levee District and the St. Bernard Parish Police Jury to cover additional areas for hurricane protection in St. Bernard Parish. Supplemental assurances were adopted on June 6, 1967. By Executive Order No. 80, dated March 5, 1971, the Governor of the State of Louisiana revoked a previous order and designated the Pontchartrain Levee District as the agency to provide assurances for Jefferson and St. Charles Parishes and the St. Tammany Parish Police Jury to provide assurances for St. Tammany Parish. To date assurances have been received from the Board of Commissioners of the Orleans Levee District for Orleans Parish and the Board of Commissioners for the Pontchartrain Levee District for Jefferson and St. Charles Parishes. The St. Tammany Parish Police Jury was reluctant to grant formal assurances for the area in St. Tammany Parish north of Lake Pontchartrain. Governor John J. McKeithen, on May 8, 1972, executed formal assurances on behalf of the St. Tammany Parish Police Jury pursuant to his authority under Section 81, et seq. of Title 38 of the Louisiana Revised Statutes of 1950 as amended. Such assurances are binding on the Police Jury. Mr. Roy Aguillard, Director of the Louisiana Department of Public Works was requested on May 26, 1972 to provide the necessary supporting documents, namely: financial statement together with an opinion of its legal counsel that the separate agencies are lawfully empowered and financially able to carry out the commitments of these assurances. Upon receipt of these documents the Corps will be in a position to accept the assurances. Operations and results during fiscal year.

OUACHITA AND BLACK RIVERS BELOW CAMDEN, ARK. Location. Ouachita River rises in Polk County, Ark., and flows southeasterly and southerly about 600 miles. Below its confluence with the Tensas and Little Rivers at Jonesville, La., it is called Black River, which enters Red River 35.5 miles from the Mississippi River. Previous projects. See page 683 of Annual Report for 1962 for details. Existing project. See page 684 of Annual Report for 1962 for details of existing 6.5-foot navigation project. New work for completed project cost $4,574,551, exclusive of amounts expended under previous projects. Modified project and project for Red River below Fulton, Ark., provide for a channel 9 feet deep and 100 feet wide in Red River between Old River and mouth of Black River, and in Black and Ouachita Rivers from mouth of Black River to Camden, Ark. This is being accomplished by construction of four new locks, 84 feet by 600 feet, new dams, channel realignment, and measures to preserve Catahoula Lake for migratory waterfowl. Jonesville Lock and Dam replaced existing Lock and Dam No. 2; Columbia Lock and Dam replaced existing Lock and Dams Nos. 3, 4, and 5; Felsenthal Lock and Dam will replace existing Lock and Dam No. 6; and Calion Lock and Dam will replace existing Lock and Dam No. 8. The River and Harbor Act of 1970 authorized establishment of Federal migratory waterfowl refuges along Bayou D'Arbonne (14,700 acres) in connection with Columbia Lock and Dam and at Felsenthal Lock and Dam (65,000 acres). Approved (1972) estimated cost for new work for 9-foot navigation project is $141,698,000, including $138,000,000 Federal and $3,698,000 non-Federal for lands, damages, and relocations. Local cooperation. Local cooperation for all completed work has been furnished in a timely manner and it is not anticipated that any problems will arise that will adversely affect construction. Recent discussions with local interests indicate that they will continue to furnish the local cooperation required. Terminal facilities. Public loading docks are at Columbia, La., and Camden, Ark. Privately-owned docks and loading and unloading facilities are at Columbia, Monroe, and Sterlington, La., and El Dorado, Calion, and Camden, Ark. Two grain handling facilities and petroleum- loading facility are in the vicinity of Jonesville, La., and a grain-handling facility is in the vicinity of Acme, La. Operations and results during fiscal year. Construction of the Jonesville Lock and Dam was completed during the fiscal year. Planning and design for other features in the Jonesville and Columbia pools are continuing. Rights-of-way problems in Arkansas were resolved and planning and design for Felsenthal Lock and Dam was resumed. The Columbia and Jonesville Locks were placed in operation and a 9-foot navigation channel to Lock and Dam No. 6 was established. The remaining portion of the navigation channel was maintained at the existing 6.5-foot project depth. Existing Locks and Dams Nos. 2, 3, and 4 were taken out of service and the remaining Locks and Dams Nos. 5, 6, and 8 were maintained and operated throughout the fiscal year. Condition at end of fiscal year. The 6.5-foot project is complete and being maintained. Planning and design for the 9-foot navigation project started in fiscal year 1962 and is continuing. Construction at Columbia lock and dam started in February 1964. The dam was completed in November 1968 and the lock was completed in January 1970, and was placed in service in May 1972. Construction at Jonesville lock and dam started in May 1967. The lock and dam was completed in January 1972 and placed in service in March 1972. A 9-foot navigation channel to Lock and Dam No. 6 was established in June 1972. (See table 12-C on locks and dams, Ouachita and Black Rivers, Ark. and La.) 3. YAZOO RIVER, MISS. Location. Formed by junction of Tallahatchie and Yalobusha Rivers in Leflore County, Miss., flows about 169 miles southerly and southwesterly, and enters Mississippi River at Vicksburg, Miss. (See Mississippi River alluvial valley quadrangle maps.) Previous projects. See page 681 of Annual Report for 1961 for details. Existing project. The Yazoo River Navigation project consists of a 9-foot channel from its mouth to Greenwood, Mississippi, mile 164.9 (present mileage), with a minimum width of 150 feet. The project includes a single lock (84 feet by 600 feet) and a dam located near Vicksburg, dredging and channel realignment, 600,000 acre-feet of additional storage in Sardis Lake to augment low flows in the Yazoo River, and recreation features. Estimated (1972) Federal cost of 9-foot project is $93,700,000. Total non-Federal cost is $1,126,000. Local cooperation. None required on previous project. The authorization of the 9-foot navigation project requires local interests to: a. Provide all lands, easements, rights-of-way, and flowage rights in overflow areas required for construction and subsequent maintenance of the project, except at Sardis Lake; 12-2 VICKSBURG, MISS., DISTRICT b. Provide land for aids to navigation upon the request of the Chief of Engineers; c. Provide suitable areas determined by the Chief of Engineers to be required in the general public interest for initial and subsequent disposal of spoil, necessary retaining dikes, bulkheads, and embankments therefor, or the cost of such retaining works; d. Hold and save the United States free from damages due to the construction works and subsequent operation and maintenance, including but not limited to those resulting from dredging, change in ground-water level, and wave action; e. Provide and maintain, without cost to the United States, adequate public terminal and transfer facilities, including berths and access channels, open to all on equal terms; f. Accomplish alterations and relocations as required, except for those required for increasing capacity of Sardis Lake, including a portion of the cost of alteration of the State highway bridge at Belzoni, to be determined subsequent to construction in accordance with the principles of section 6 of the Bridge Alteration Act of 21 June 1940, as amended; and g. Contribute or repay to the United States an amount equal to one-half the separable cost of recreation features and assume responsibility for operation and maintenance of these facilities to be provided as a part of this project. Terminal facilities. At Greenwood there is a privately-owned dock and a grain loading facility. There are privately-owned facilities for loading grain at Belzoni and Satartia. At Yazoo City there is a privately-owned grain loading facility and a public and a private dock to handle dry and liquid fertilizer. At Mississippi Valley Portland Cement Co. plant near Redwood, Miss., there is a privately-owned dock to unload stone and shell. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance clearing and snagging were done as required on the old authorized project. Condition at end of fiscal year. Entire river is navigable (no work has been done on new authorization). 4.

See report on Illinois Waterway, Ill. and Ind., under Chicago District. 2. KASKASKIA RIVER, ILL. Location. Rises in Champaign County, Ill. about 5 miles northwest of Urbana, in east-central part of the State. It flows southwesterly about 325 miles and empties into Mississippi River about 8 miles above Chester, Ill., or about 118 miles above mouth of Ohio River. (See Cincinnati sheet of maps of United States published by Army Map Service, scale 1:500,000.) Previous project. For details see Annual Report for 1896, page 1761. Existing project. Improvement for navigation will provide a channel 9 feet deep and 225 feet wide from mouth to Fayetteville, Ill. Improvement will consist of enlarging present channel where required, making overbank cutoffs to eliminate sharp bends, and construction of a dam at about mile 0.8 with a single lock 84 feet wide and 600 feet long, at an estimated construction cost of $111,- 500,000 (1972) including a $1,500,000 local contribution. Local cooperation. State of Illinois passed legislation authorizing Illinois Department of Public Works and Buildings to enter into assurances of local cooperation with the United States. These assurances have been furnished and were accepted November 23, 1965. The State is continuing with land acquisition. Operations and results during fiscal year. Construction of the canal, roads, and lock and dam continued. Work was continued on highway and railroad alterations. Engineering and design continued on remaining construction items. Maintenance: Hired labor forces performed operation and maintenance of the project. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is about 58 percent complete. 3. MISSISSIPPI RIVER BETWEEN MISSOURI RIVER AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. (ST. LOUIS DIST.) See section of this annual report entitled "Mississippi River between Missouri River and Minneapolis, Minn." 4. MISSISSIPPI OHIO AND MO. AND ILL. RIVER BETWEEN MISSOURI RIVERS, Location. Mississippi River rises in Lake Itasca, Minn., and from that lake flows southerly about 2,340 miles and empties into the Gulf of Mexico. Portion included in this report embraces the 195- mile section known as middle Mississippi, between tributary Ohio and Missouri Rivers about 974 to 1,169 miles from the gulf. See folder by Corps of Engineers of Navigation Charts Middle and Upper Mississippi River, Cairo, Ill., to Minneapolis, Minn. Previous projects. For details see page 1879 of Annual Report for 1915, and page 1014 of Annual Report for 1938. Existing projects. Provides for obtaining and maintaining a minimum channel depth of not less than 9 feet, a minimum width of not less than 300 feet at low water, with additional widths in bends from mouth of Ohio River (about 974 miles from gulf) to northern boundary of city of St. Louis, mile 191, thence 200 feet wide, with additional width in bends to mouth of Missouri River, mile 195; to be obtained: (1) by regulating works, for closing secondary channels, contracting river by building new banks where river width is excessive and protecting new and old banks from erosion where necessary to secure permanency at an estimated construction cost (1972) of $80,100,000; (2) by dredging to maintain project channels; (3) by construction of works authorized for Chain of Rocks reach in 1945 River and Harbor Act, which approved a comprehensive plan for development of the river at Chain of Rocks to provide for construction of a lateral canal at an estimated construction cost (1972) of $59,800,000 and (4) by construction of a fixed-crest rockfill dam about 900 feet below Chain of Rocks Bridge, authorized by 1958 River and Harbor Act, at cost of $4,353,000, excluding $7,000 costs to Coast Guard for aids to navigation. Estimated cost of new work (1972) is $144,253,000. A small boat harbor opposite Chester, Ill., is inactive and excluded from foregoing cost estimate. Estimated cost (July 1960) of this portion is $166,600 including $55,000 non-Federal contribution, and excluding $1,000 Coast Guard cost. See House Document 669 (76th Cong., 3d sess.) for report of Chief of Engineers dated February 27, 1940, containing a general plan for improvement of Mississippi River between Coon Rapids Dam and mouth of Ohio River for purposes of navigation, power development, flood control, and needs of irrigation. Local cooperation. None required. 14-2 ST. LOUIS, MO., DISTRICT Terminal facilities. Considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Regulating Works: Contract work continued on stone dike construction as did engineering and design and supervision and administration. Chain of Rocks: Engineering and design for guidewalls and tie-down of upper sill are complete, and contract work is in progress. Dam 27: Project is complete. Maintenance: Work consisted of 6,840 feet of dike repair and 82,813 feet of revetment repair. U.S. plant hired labor performed channel dredging at 24 locations, removing 3,850,800 cubic yards of material from main channel. Channels dredged had a combined length of 11.8 miles, an average width of 290 feet, and an average gain in depth of 6.5 feet. Condition and operation studies, recreation planning, engineering and design, and operation and maintenance of lock and dam 27 continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction on existing project began in 1881 and project has been in beneficial use practically from its conception. Work on the project is about 79 percent complete. Work required to complete the project includes construction of 31,170 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 improved 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 without dredging. Mean stage of river, St. Louis gage, was 11.58 feet for fiscal year 1971 and 9.04 feet for fiscal year 1972. A study is underway to determine whether project criteria need to be revised in order to assure a dependable 9-foot project depth. 5. OTHER AUTHORIZED NAVIGATION PROJECTS See table 14-C. Alteration of Bridges 6. AUTHORIZED BRIDGE ALTERATIONS See table 14-D. FLOOD CONTROL 7. EAST ST. LOUIS AND VICINITY, ILL. Location. In St. Clair and Madison Counties, Ill., on the left bank of the Mississippi River between river miles 175 and 195 above the Ohio River. Project includes all bottom lands between bluffs on the east and Mississippi River and Chain of Rocks Canal on the west, and extends from Cahokia diversion channel on the north to Prairie du Pont Creek on the south. (See Corps of Engineers Navigation Charts, Middle and Upper Mississippi River, Cairo, Ill., to Minneapolis, Minn.) Existing project. The 1936 Flood Control Act authorized raising and enlarging existing levee systems by construction or reconstruction of 19.8 miles of levee, including 3.1 miles of floodwall, together with necessary appurtenant works consisting of gravity drainage structures, highway and railroad closure structures, alterations and reconstruction of existing pumping plants, alterations to railroad bridges and approaches at levee crossings, service roads on levee crown, and seepage control measures. Work under this authorization will provide the area protection against a flood of about 200-year frequency. The completed 10 miles of levee along Chain of Rocks Canal and Lock 27 provides flood protection on the landward side integral with and to the same degree as the East St. Louis levee. Estimated cost of work under this authorization is $22,050,900. The Flood Control Act of 1965 modified existing project to provide for channel improvements, diversion ditches, flood plain detention areas, a reservoir on Little Canteen Creek, and a pumping plant to considerably reduce damages resulting from interior flooding. This act also authorized reconstruction of a channel stabilization dam in Cahokia Creek diversion channel to provide protection to adjacent levees and bridges from scour and eventual loss. Estimated Federal cost of work under this authorization is $24,070,000 (1972), $14,400,000 for Cahokia Creek Dam, and $9,670,000 for Interior Flood Control. Local cooperation. Fully complied with for work under 1936 authorization. For work authorized by Flood Control Act of 1965, local interests must provide lands, easements, and rights-of-way for construction; hold the United States free from damages due to the construction works; make relocations of and modifications to highway bridges, streets, roads, sewers, and utilities; maintain and 14-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 operate all the works after completion including removal of silt and debris from impoundment areas and channels in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Army; prevent encroachment on improved channels, ponding areas, and detention areas including the reservoir, and if encroachment occurs or capacities are impaired, provide substitute storage or equivalent pumping capacity promptly without cost to the United States; and at least annually notify interests affected that the project provides only partial protection from the larger floods. The State of Illinois is currently studying the feasibility of sponsoring the interior drainage project and the low water dam. In addition to requirements listed above, the sponsor would have to comply with the applicable provision of PL 91-611 and PL 91-646. Operations and results during fiscal year. Engineering and design on minor repairs to pumping station was continued on work authorized by the Flood Control Act of 1936. Preconstruction planning was continued on project modifications authorized by FloodControl Act of 1965. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project constructed under authority of Flood Control Act of 1936 is essentially complete. Construction has not started on modifications authorized by Flood Control Act of 1965. 8. KASKASKIA RIVER, ILL. Location. Rises in Champain County, Ill., about 5 miles northwest of Urbana, in east-central part of the State. It flows generally southwesterly about 325 miles and empties into the Mississippi River about 8 miles above Chester, Ill., or 118 miles above mouth of Ohio River. (See Nashville and Cincinnati sheets of maps of United States, published by Army Map Service scale 1:500,000; also Geological Survey quadrangle maps, 1:62,500.) Existing project. Provides for construction of a dam at Carlyle and five levee projects between Carlyle and New Athens authorized by 1936 Flood Control Act, and construction of a dam at Shelbyville, six leveel projects along river between Cowden and Vandalia, and a local protection project at New Athens, all authorized by 1958 Flood Control Act. Under the plan, Carlyle Lake and Lake Shelbyville would be operated as a multiple-purpose project for local and Mississippi River flood control, domestic and industrial water supply, releases in the interest of navigation on the Mississippi River, fish and wildlife conservation, and recreation. The 11 levee projects would provide protection to about 54,610 acres of land. In view of inclusion of previously authorized Carlyle Lake and the levees tween Carlyle and New Athens. Flood Control plan, general comprehensive plan for flood control and other purposes in Upper Mississippi River Basin, approved by 1938 Flood Control Act, was modified by deleting Carlyle Lake and levees between Carlyle and New Anthens. Flood Control Act of 1965 modified the Flood Control Act of 1958 to: (a) delete requirement that local interests make a cash contribution to the cost of levees between Cowden and Vandalia because of changed land use, and (b) require that local interests make a cash contribution equal to full cost of acquisition of flowage easements in those lands acquired by the United States which, upon completion of the levee in District No. 22, will not be required for construction, operation and maintenance of Carlyle Lake. (See table 14-E.) Operations and results during fiscal year. Construction continued on Carlyle Lake and Lake Shelbyville. Construction is essentially complete on New Athens. Preliminary planning is essentially complete on Vandalia District No. 21 and Dively District No. 23. Maintenance: Continued on Carlyle and Shelbyville. Condition at end of fiscal year. See individual reports for Carlyle Lake, Lake Shelbyville, Vandalia District No. 21, and Dively District No. 23. Due to lack of local interest and support at this time, levee districts Nos. 3, 4, 8, 10, 13, 22, 27, 28, and 28A are in an inactive category. 8A. CARLYLE LAKE, ILL. Location.

Project was authorized by 1962 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 472, 87th Cong., 2d sess.) Local cooperation. Because of the vulnerability of the district to flooding, District Commissioners have been very active in efforts to obtain the flood protection they need and desire. The district has been steadily improved in the past few years, as more local funds became available. The district is believed to have the legal authority and financial capability to act as local sponsor for this work. Operations and results during fiscal year. Work was initiated on the environmental impact statement and on the supplement to the general design memorandum. Condition at end of fiscal year. General design memorandum is being revised. 11. MERAMEC RIVER BASIN, MO. Location. The basin lies within the State of Missouri and drains 3,980 square miles. The river is a west bank tributary of the Mississippi River at mile 161 above mouth of Ohio River. Major streams in the basin include the Meramec, Big, and Bourbeuse Rivers. It extends about 100 miles southwesterly from St. Louig into the Ozark Highlands. (See St. Louis, Mo. and Rolla sheets of maps of the United States, published by Army Map Service, scale 1:250,000). Existing project. Provides for the construction of Meramec Park and Union Lakes, authorized by the 1938 Flood Control Act; and Pine Ford, Irondale, and I-38 Lake project, and 19 angler-use sites, authorized by the 1966 Flood Control Act. Under the plan, Irondale and I-38 lakes will reduce flood 14-6 ST. LOUIS, MO., DISTRICT damages in the upper Big and Bourbeuse Rivers. Meramec Park, Union, and Pine Ford Lakes will substantially reduce flooding in the lower basin area and flood crests on the Mississippi River. Project will also provide water supply, water quality control, recreation, and fish and wildlife conservation. (See table 14-E for additional data on this comprehensive project.) 11A. MERAMEC PARK LAKE, MO. Location. Dam will be a mile 108.7 on Meramec River in Franklin County near Sullivan, Mo. Reservoir will be mainly in Crawford, Franklin, and Washington Counties, Mo.

Project as authorized by 1938 Flood Control Act, provides for construction of an earth dam about 167 feet high with a crest length of 3,000 feet. Reservoir will provide 1 million acrefeet of storage and provide flood protection for 10,950 acres of flood plain in the Meramec River valley above the mouth of Bourbeuse River, and partial protection for 28,760 acres of land below the Bourbeuse. Project will also provide water supply, water quality control storage and recreation, and fish and wildlife benefits. Project cost (1972) is $87,500,000, including $9,900,000 local reimbursement for water supply. Local cooperation. Local interest must contribute toward cost of project for storage allocated to water supply in accordance with the Water Supply Act of 1958. State of Missouri, acting through its State Water Resources Board and under authority of the General Assembly of State of Missouri, executed assurances for water supply on August 23, 1967. The assurances were reviewed by the Office of the Attorney General, State of Missouri, and it is his opinion that the State of Missouri has the legal authority and financial capability to execute said assurances. These assurances have been approved by the Chief of Engineers. A water supply contract will be entered into with the sponsor before any use of the water-supply storage provided under this contract. Operations and results during fiscal year. Engineering and design work has been curtailed due to appropriation of funds for real estate acquisition only; to date 9,672 acres have been acquired in fee and easements acquired on 164 acres. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction has not started. 11B. UNION LAKE, MO. Location. Dam will be on Bourbeuse River at mile 32.6, about 55 miles west of St. Louis. River is a major tributary of the Meramec. Lake will extend about 53 miles up Bourbeuse River.

MULTIPL-PURPOSE PROJECT INCLUDING POWER 19. CLARENCE CANNON DAM AND RESERVOIR, SALT RIVER, MO. Location. Salt River rises in Schuyler County, about 12 miles south of Missouri-Iowa State line. It flows southeasterly about 192 miles and empties into Mississippi River about 2 miles above Louisiana, Mo., or about 284 miles above mouth of Ohio River. (See Kansas City and Quincy sheets of maps of United States published by Army Map Service, scale 1:500,000 and Geological Survey quadrangle maps, 1:250,000.) Previous project. For details see page 645 of Annual Report for 1963. Existing project. Provides for consturction of a multiple-purpose reservoir, including power, flood control, water supply, navigation storage, pollution abatement, fish and wildlife conservation and recreation. Dam consists of a compacted earth embankment with a concrete spillway controlled by tainter gates. Dam and spillway are about 1,700 feet long. Spillway structure consists of an ogee overflow section surmounted by four 50-by 39-foot tainter gates. Reservoir will have a storage capacity of 1,428,000 acre-feet for use of flood control, future domestic and industrial water supply, sediment storage, and power generation. Project document plan provides for installation of two 27,000 kilowatt units, one conventional and one reversible, to be used for pumped storage operations. Project cost estimate including $4,900,000 for local contribution for water supply is $123,000,000 (1972). This estimate includes $13,220,000 for lands and land acquisition costs. Local cooperation. In accordance with provisions of Water Supply Act of 1958, the cost of storage allocated to water supply would be reimbursed by the local sponsor. State of Missouri, acting through its State Water Resources Board and under authority of the General Assembly of State of Missouri by legislation passed in 1965, will sponsor this project. This legislation provides that the Water Resources Board is authorized to make reasonable assurances and enter into contracts with appropriate Federal departments for purposes of discharging non-Federal responsibilities relating to municipal and industrial water supply storage as permitted by applicable Federal legislation on water resources projects. Assurances were executed by State Board April 8, 1965. Assurances were reviewed by Office of the Attorney General, State of Missouri, and it is his opinion that the State of Missouri has the legal authority and financial capability to execute said assurances. These assurances have been approved by Chief of Engineers. A water supply contract will be entered into with the sponsor before any use of the water supply storage provided under this project. No local contribution for recreation, including recreation aspects of fish and wildlife, is required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Contract for the turbines is under way, and Phase I Main Dam and Abutment exploration contracts are nearing completion.

AQUATIC PLANT CONTROL (SOUTHWESTERN DIVISION) 1965 ACT Location. Navigable waters, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters in Texas and the Sabine River Watershed of Louisiana. Previous projects. For details see page 699 of Annual Report for 1963. Existing project. A comprehensive project to provide for control and progressive eradication of water-hyacinth, alligatorweed, Eurasian watermilfoil, and other obnoxious aquatic plant growths, from navigable waters, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters in Texas in the combined interest of navigation, flood control, drainage, agriculture, fish and wildlife conservation, public health, and related purposes, including continued research for development of the most effective and economic control measures. (See Table 15-C Other Authorized Navigation Projects paragraph for completed project authorized by 1958 and 1962 River and Harbor Acts). (Also see Table 15-B for authorizing legislation). Estimated cost for new work is: Federal (Corps) $531,600 and non-Federal $193,100. Local cooperation. Sec. 302, 1965 River and Harbor Act, applies. Non-Federal work contribution estimated at $193,100. Operations and results during fiscal year. Engineering and design and supervision and administration cost $8,553 and $4,166. Reimbursement to State for Government's share of cost of $34,948 for eradication was made. In addition, the State performed $16,052 of eradication for which credit as work-in-kind was given. Condition at end of fiscal year. Spraying of aquatic plants in the Nueces River Basin was continued. The design memorandum was completed and work was initiated in the Guadalupe River Basin and the North Coastal Area. (See Table 15-F for total cost of the existing project to June 30, 1972.) 2. BRAZOS ISLAND HARBOR, TEX. Location. At extreme south end of coast of Texas, about 7 miles north of mouth of Rio Grande and about 5 miles east of Brownsville, Tex.

CORPUS CHRISTI SHIP CHANNEL, TEX. Location. This project, formerly known as the Port Aransas-Corpus Christi Waterway , Tex., was changed to Corpus Christi Ship Channel, Tex. by 1968 River and Harbor Act. This is a consolidation of old improvements of Port Aransas, Tex., and channel from Aransas Pass to Corpus Christi, Tex. Aransas Pass is on southern portion of Texas Coast, 180 miles southwest of Galveston and 132 miles north of mouth of Rio Grande. Aransas Pass connects Corpus Christi Bay and Aransas Bay with the gulf. Waterway extends from deep water in the gulf through Aransas Pass jettied entrance, thence westerly 20.75 miles to and including a turning basin at Corpus Christi, thence westerly 1.75 miles through Industrial Canal to and including turning basin at Avery Point, thence westerly 4.25 miles to and including a turning basin near Tule Lake, thence northwesterly 1.8 miles to and including a turning basin at Viola, Tex. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 523, 892, 893, 1285 and 1286.) Previous Project. For details see page 1861 of Annual Report for 1915. Existing project. (See Table 15-G for existing project dimensions provided for in various channels and basins comprising this waterway.) Project also provides for two rubblestone jetties at Aransas Pass entrance, extending into the gulf from St. Joseph and Mustang Islands, project lengths of which are 11,190 and 8,610 feet, respectively. Project further provides for a stone .dike on St. Joseph Island about 20,991 feet long, connecting with north jetty and extending up this island to prevent a channel being cut around jetty. Under ordinary conditions, mean tidal range at Aransas Pass is about 1.1 feet and extreme range about 2 feet, and at Corpus Christi mean range about 1 foot and extreme about 1.5 feet. Heights of tides are dependent largely on strength and directions of winds, and during strong "northers" in the winter season water surface may be depressed as much as 3 feet below mean low tide. Estimated cost for new work is: Federal (Corps) $44,668,000, exclusive of amount expended on previous projects; and non-Federal $10,833,300, including $3,118,072 contributed funds and value of useful work performed, $1,423,228 lands, $4,307,000 relocations and $1,985,000 other costs.

Condition and operation studies, inspections and reports, and project condition surveys including real estate activities cost $23,829, miscellaneous maintenance including repair of directional signs, and channel reference lines by hired labor totaled $892. Reference line structures were constructed and replaced by contract at a cost of $10,500. Repairs to the hopper dredge dock totaled $97,885. (See Table 15-I for dredging operations.) Condition at end of fiscal year. The project is about 46 percent complete exclusive of inactive portions. The Port Aransas-Corpus Christi 40-foot project was initiated in 1963 and completed in 1966. The Jewel Fulton Canal was initiated in 1962 and completed in 1963. The 15-4 GALVESTON, TEX., DISTRICT work remaining consists of deepening entrance channel to 47 feet; deepening all other deep-draft channels to 45 feet; widening of channels and basins; constructing a turning point on main channel at junction with La Quinta channel and constructing a mooring area at Port Ingleside with dolphins. Preconstruction planning on 45-foot project has been completed and dredging of La Quinta Channel to 40 feet was initiated in May 72. Completion of La Quinta Channel to 45 feet will be by separate contract. (See Table 15-F for total cost of existing project to June 30, 1972.) 7. CORPUS CHRISTI SHIP CHANNEL, TEX. (PORT ARANSAS BREAKWATERS) Location. Breakwaters and channel are located at Port Aransas, Texas, which is about 20 miles east from the city of Corpus Christi and 6 miles southeast from Aransas Pass, Texas. Existing project. The plan of improvement provides for the construction of a breakwater at the entrance to the harbor area at Port Aransas, and for the realignment of the existing 12-foot by 100-foot project channel to Port Aransas. The breakwater would consist of two overlapping sections, one on the east side of the realigned entrance channel and having a length of 830 feet, the second to be located on the west side of the entrance channel with a length of 1,290 feet. The channel to Port Aransas would be relocated in the 300-foot clear distance between the overlapping sections. The portion of the channel remaining inside the breakwaters would be widened to 150 feet. Estimated cost for new work is $638,000 Federal (Corps), and $8,200 non-Federal, of which $4,200 is cash contribution and $4,000 is for land. (See Table 15-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Section 107, River and Harbor Act of 1960 applies. Non-Federal contribution estimated at $4,200. Terminal facilities. Private and public owned wharves and piers are the only terminal facilities at Port Aransas. Facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year.

MEX. Location. In area which comprises watersheds of ephemeral streams entering a 15-mile reach of Rio Grande from the east at Albuquerque, N. Mex., and vicinity. Combined drainage area of tributaries is about 276 square miles. Sandia Range of the Rocky Mountains, which is about 12 miles east of Rio Grande, forms eastern border of watersheds. Crest of mountain range rises more than a mile above river to an elevation of 10,692 feet above mean sea level. (See Geological Survey Map, Albuquerque, N. Mex., quadrangle, scale 1:62,500.) Existing project. There is a serious flood problem on tributaries of Rio Grande from east in Bernalillo County, Albuquerque, N. Mex., and vicinity. Small detention dams, constructed by city on several of these tributary arroyos, are not adequate to control floods. Flash floods originating on steep slopes of Sandia Mountains inundate large portions of highly developed lowlands * All cost and financial statements for projects are listed at the end of this chapter. All other tables are referenced in text and also appear at the end of this chapter. 17-1 Page 17-10 17-10 17-11 17-12 17-12 17-12 17-12 17-13 17-13 17-13 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 area adjacent to river. Central business district, mainland and division shops of Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway, Federal and State highways, and commercial, industrial, residential, and suburban properties in lowlands are subject to flood damages. Plan of improvement consists of north and south diversion channels on high ground east of and parallel to valley. Channels are designed to carry floods equal in magnitude to standard project flood from all tributaries. Estimated Federal cost is $17,300,000. Estimated non-Federal cost, including required cash contribution of $530,000 is $11,060,000. Lands and damages costs are responsibility of local interests. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. In addition to usual requirements, local interests must alter existing improvements, other than railroads, and prevent further encroachment upon existing defined waterways of tributaries by zoning or other means, or construct adequate waterways, or provide other drainage facilities to prevent flood problems in heights area of Albuquerque from developing into one of serious proportions. Local cooperation requirements also include cash contribution toward cost of construction in lump sum amounts equivalent to about 1.3 percent of total first cost of north diversion channel and about 3.4 percent of total first cost of south diversion channel. Total estimated cost to local interests, including cash contribution toward cost of construction is $11,060,000. Preconstruction planning was initiated in 1956. Work was stopped in fiscal year 1959 as a result of failure of local interests to comply with requirements. On November 21, 1958, 5-year notice of expiration of project authorization was issued to local interests. By act of State Legislature of New Mexico in 1963, Albuquerque Metropolitan Arroyo Flood Control Authority was created to provide local sponsorship for project subject to election of Board of Directors and approval of bond issue to provide funds for the authority. On August 27, 1963, voters approved a $9.5 million bond issue for funding necessary local cooperation costs and elected a board of directors to serve as its governing body. Formal assurances were accepted by district on November 19, 1963. An additional bond issue to cover increase in non-Federal cost was approved by voters in general election November 8, 1966. Operations and results during fiscal year. Construction on the project is now complete as work on Phases I and II of the South Diversion Channel was completed in February and March, 1972 respectively. The completed North Diversion Channel prevented an estimated $700,000 annual flood damages during FY 1971. The estimated total accumulated flood damages prevented through FY 1971 amount to $993,000. Peak floodflows recorded during FY 1972 were: July 1, 1971, 596 c.f.s. (64 acre-feet); July 20, 1971, 478 c.f.s. (192 acre-feet); July 22, 1971, 300 c.f.s. (56 acre-feet); July 23, 1971, 2,080 c.f.s.

(100 acre-feet); August 12, 1971, 3,730 c.f.s. (406 acre-feet); August 16, 1971, 320 c.f.s. (30 acre-feet); August 17, 1971, 1,100 c.f.s. (150 acre-feet); August 25, 1971, 930 c.f.s. (50 acre-feet); September 17, 1971, 680 c.f.s. (110 acre-feet); September 22, 1971, 445 c.f.s. (46 acre-feet); September 23, 1971, 472 c.f.s. (262 acre-feet); September 30, 1971, 1,070 c.f.s. (168 acre-feet); October 25, 1971, 930 c.f.s. (420 acre-feet); November 16, 1971, 350 c.f.s. (258 acre-feet); June 7, 1972, 560 c.f.s. (124 acre-feet); June 23, 1972, 800 c.f.s. (264 acre-feet). Condition at end of fiscal year. Project planning is complete. Construction of the north and south diversion channels is complete. 2. CONCHAS LAKE, CANADIAN RIVER, N. MEX. Location. Dam is in San Miguel County, N. Mex., on Canadian River, about one-fourth mile downstream from confluence of Canadian and Conchas Rivers. It is about 30 miles northwest of Tucumcari, N. Mex., and 743 miles upstream from mouth of Canadian River. Canadian River is about 906 miles long, rises in northeastern part of New Mexico, and flows south and east to Arkansas River near Webbers Falls, Okla. (See Geological Survey State map of New Mexico, scale 1:500,000, and Geological Survey topographic map, Tucumcari quadrangle, scale 1:125,000.) Existing project. A concrete gravity main dam section 1,250 feet long with a maximum height of 200 feet above streambed located in Canadian River Canyon together with earth dikes on each side having an overall length of about 3.7 miles. Main section contains conduits in its base for release of water to maintain low flows and for drainage of reservoir, and an overflow, ungated spillway 300 feet long. Earth dikes vary in height up to 100 feet and north dike contains a concrete ogee-type emergency spillway 3,000 feet long. Reservoir has a gross storage capacity of 529,000 acre-feet (198,900 for flood control, 259,600 for water conservation and irrigation, and 70,500 dead storage). Dam controls 7,409 square miles of drainage area. Federal cost was $15,811,171, including $2,279,326 for initiating construction of project under authority of Emergency Relief Appropriation Act of 1935. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) 17-2 ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Operation of reservoir continued. Reservoir was operated for storage of floodwaters and releases for irrigation purposes. Estimated total accumulated flood damages prevented by project through fiscal year 1971 were $500,000. There were no floodflows of significance during FY 1971. Estimated irrigation benefits for fiscal year 1971 were $272,200. Estimated total accumulated irrigation benefits through fiscal year 1971 were $5,521,650. Pool elevation at start of fiscal year was 4,178.88 feet, with corresponding storage of 167,821 acre-feet. The maximum pool elevation and storage for the year were 4,179.90 feet and 173,360 acre-feet, respectively, on 27 August. Pool elevation did not exceed spillway crest (elevation 4,201 feet) during the fiscal year. Irrigation releases were terminated October 15, 1971, and spring irrigation releases began April 1, 1972. Total releases for fiscal year were 93,073 acre-feet (91,968 for irrigation, and 1,105 miscellaneous losses). Releases of 89,838 acre-feet were made to Arch Hurley Conservancy District and 2,130 acre-feet to Bell Ranch. Pool elevation on June 30, 1972, was 4,166.93 feet with corresponding storage of 112,268 acre-feet. Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project was essentially complete in 1940. Reservoir and appurtenances are in good condition and in operation. Irrigation of some lands under project was begun in November 1945. 3. DODGE CITY, KANS. Location. At Dodge City, Ford County, Kans., on Arkansas River about 130 miles downstream from Colorado-Kansas State line. (See Geological Survey map for Dodge quadrangle, scale 1:125,000.) Existing project. About 7 miles of levees of about 8.3 feet 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 channel to form a floodway about 470 feet wide N hich 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 floodwalls about 100 feet long will be provided to insure continuity between levees and bridge abutments. Project also includes relocation of a railroad bridge and grade raise. Appurtenant works include interior drainage structures and fencing, a pumping plant for disposal of sanitary sewage during high water periods, and 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 c.f.s. at Dodge City, consideration was given to modification of project design to increase protection to maximum extent practicable without causing substantial increase in Federal and non-Federal costs. Plan adopted is based on a design flow of 40,000 c.f.s. with the added requirement that top of levees would not be lower than the profile for 60,000 c.f.s. flow. The top of levee profile for 60,000 c.f.s. would increase the floodway capacity so it would not be necessary to raise the bridges on Second Street and 14th Avenue. The bridge crossings would require sandbagging during floods of 60,000 c.f.s. magnitude. Revised frequency curves prepared since 1965 flood indicate 40,000 c.f.s. flow would occur about once in 63 years and 82,000 c.f.s. flow about once in 250 years. These frequency curves also show that a 90-year frequency has a discharge of about 48,000 c.f.s., and such a flow could be safely passed through the floodway as presently designed. Estimated Federal cost is $3,920,000. Cost of lands and damages is responsibility of local interests. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) 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 existing 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, provide substitute storage capacity or equivalent pumping capacity. A bond issue for flood control purposes was approved by the voters October 12, 1965. Formal assurances were received March 25, 1970. Estimated non-Federal cost is $800,000. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preconstruction planning was continued. The cost reimbursable contract with the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific Railroad Company for design of the railroad bridge and grade raise continued. The construction plans and specifications for the channels, canals, levees and floodwalls were continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is about 98 percent complete. The plans and specifications for the railroad bridge and grade raise are about 99 percent complete. The plans and specifications for the channels, levees and floodwalls are about 45 percent complete. 17-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 4. EL PASO, 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. (Geological 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 two units (Copper System and Bluff Channel) in Southeast area. Improvements 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 to be deferred until construction is initiated by International Boundary and Water Commission on improvements which may be required to increase capacity of Rio Grande and its floodway. Elements authorized for construction as soon as practicable consist of seven reservoirs plus diversion and outlet channels in Central area to operate in cohjunction with existing facilities and two reservoirs together with diversions and an outfall channel in Copper System of Southeast 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. Estimated Federal cost is $21,700,000. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) 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 enlargement and channel improvement on Rio Grande by IB & WC. IB & WC has determined that it is not feasible to increase discharges 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 channel work but which would cost about $4,000,000 additional. Boundary 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 Channel at no extra cost over authorized plan. Local cooperation. In addition to usual requirements, local interests must alter existing improvements, other than railroads or improvements constructed and maintained by United States, prevent encroachment on all of project works which would reduce their design capacities; take steps to prevent encroachment upon existing defined waterways tributary to project by zoning or other means such as enlargements, or other modifications, of existing waterway facilities to prevent minor flood problems in these tributary waterways from developing into problems of serious proportions; and inform all concerned that project is designed to control floods originating above structures and that some residual flooding may be expected from precipitation occurring below structures. Estimated non-Federal cost is $4,150,000. Operations and results during fiscal year. Construction was continued in the Central Area. Construction of portions of the Fort Bliss Sump and Mountain Avenue Outlet Conduits was completed during 1972. Construction of the Northgate and Range Dams and their associated channels and canals were initiated during 1972. Feature design memoranda for the Pershing System, Sunrise and Mountain Park System and Mckelligon-Fillmore System of the Central Area were continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is complete. Planning for the Northwest Area has been initiated as the City of El Paso has completed their master plan of development for the area. Planning for the Copper System of the Southeast Area has been temporarily suspended. The city requests this postponement until they complete alternate studies to solve this problem. The contract for construction of the Fort Bliss Sump and Mountain Avenue Outlet Conduits (portions) is completed. The overall project completion is about 28 percent. 5. GREAT BEND, KANS. Location. At Great Bend, Barton County, Kans., on left bank of Arkansas River at river mile 873, about 4.5 miles upstream from confluence of Walnut Creek with Arkansas River. (See Geological Survey map, Great Bend quadrangle, scale 1:250,000.) 17-4 ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT Existing project. Consists of 6.2 miles of leveed channel to divert Walnut Creek floodflows around and upstream from city into Arkansas River; a leveed channel 1.5 miles long to direct Little Walnut Creek floodflows into Walnut Diversion Channel; 6 miles of improved channel with levees along Arkansas River; a tieback levee 4.3 miles long on left bank of Arkansas River upstream from junction with Walnut Diversion Channel; alteration or relocation of two railroad bridges; and appurtenant facilities. Project will protect city of Great Bend and vicinity from Arkansas River flows up to 86,000 cubic feet per second and Walnut Creek flows of 26,000 cubic feet per second. Estimated Federal cost is $7,- 450,000. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. In addition to usual requirements, local interests must provide easements for flood zoning purposes in ponding areas; hold United States free from claims as a result of flooding from residual interior runoff during operation of project; inform periodically all concerned that some flooding will continue to occur because of temporary ponding; prohibit any encroachment on design capacities of river channel, diversion channels, interior drains, and ponding areas; and if ponding area capacities are impaired, provide promptly, without cost to United States, substitute storage or equivalent pumping capacity; alter existing improvements, other than railroad bridges and approaches connected therewith; provide fences on both sides of Walnut diversion channel for structural protection and as a safety measure during periods of high flow. In addition, construction of the flood control works will be initiated concurrently with or subsequent to replacement of U.S. Highway 281 bridge across Arkansas River. A bond issue to finance requirements was defeated in special election on August 10, 1965. Since defeat of initial bond issue, City Council initiated a campaign to better acquaint people in community with proposed project. On April 2, 1968, a bond issue was again defeated. Governing Body of Great Bend is proceeding with further studies and hopes to again present bond issue to the people. Formal assurances of local cooperation have not been requested. However, the Mayor and City Council have taken the position that these assurances will be furnished and that requirements will be met when requested. Estimated non-Federal cost is $2,410,000. Operation and results during fiscal year. Project planning in continuing on hydrology portion of the General Design Memorandum during the fiscal year. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is about 15 percent complete. 6. JOHN MARTIN RESERVOIR PROJECT, COLO. Location. On Arkansas River 1,159 miles upstream from its mouth, 300 miles downstream from its source, in Bent County, about 18 miles upstream from city of Lamar, Colo. (See Geological Survey maps for Lamar and Las Animas (Colo.) quadrangles, scale 1:125,000.) Existing project. A concrete and earthfill structure about 2.6 miles long with a maximum height of 118 feet above streambed and an overflow, gated spillway 1,174 feet long. On basis of 1968 sediment resurvey, new area-capacity curves show reservoir storage capacity of 618,700 acre-feet (261,000 for flood control and 357,700 for conservation and recreation storage). Reservoir controls a contributing drainage area of 18,130 square miles and is operated as a unit of coordinated reservoir system for flood control in Arkansas River Basin. Federal cost was $15,- 173,389. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Public Law 89-298 modified the act of June 22, 1936 (49 Stat. 1570) to authorize and direct Chief of Engineers to use, not to exceed, 10,000 acre-feet of reservoir flood control storage space for fish and wildlife and recreation purposes. The Chief of Engineers provided this space and set top elevation of conservation, fish and wildlife and recreation pool at elevation 3,851.83 feet contingent upon stipulations and limitations of said act. Local cooperation. Section 2, Flood Control Act of June 28, 1938, applies. Operations and results during fiscal year. Ordinary maintenance and operation continued. Regulation of conservation storage continued under rules and regulations of Arkansas River Compact. No flood damages were prevented during fiscal year 1971; however, $236,000 sediment damages were prevented. Estimated total flood and sediment damages prevented by project through fiscal year 1971 were $72,616,000. Estimated irrigation benefits for fiscal year 1971 were $235,000. Estimated total accumulative irrigation benefits through fiscal year 1971 were $18,560,999. Maximum pool elevation of 3,8- 00.79 feet with corresponding storage of 25,695 acre-feet occurred on April 1, 1972. Total releases for fiscal year were 128,304 acre-feet. Releases attributed to irrigation benefits amounted to 26,295 acre-feet. Reservoir was empty July 1, 1971 until November 2, 1971 and April 16, 1972 until June 30, 1972. Winter storage was in effect from November 1, 1971 until April 3, 1972. Condition at end of fiscal year. Storage and operation of reservoir for irrigation began in March 1943. Construction of dam and appurtenances was completed in October 1948 and are in good condition and in operation. 17-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 7. LAS ANIMAS, COLO. Location. At Las Animas, Bent County, Colo., at river mile 1,175 on Arkansas River, just upstream from its confluence with Purgatoire River, a major tributary that enters Arkansas River from south. (See Geological Survey map, Lamar, Colo.; Kans. quadrangle, scale 1:250,000.) Existing project. Consists of a levee 9.3 miles long on south bank of Arkansas River and a levee about 1 mile long on north bank. Appurtenant works include levee protection measures; an interior drainage system consisting of outlet structures, a ditch, and ponding areas; and intake structures for irrigation canals. Design flood is 140,000 cubic feet per second, which is equivalent to flood of record (June 1921 flood with peak discharge of 187,000 cubic feet per second, reduced by regulatory effect of Barrier Dam, near Pueblo, Colo., which was placed in operation shortly after June 1921 flood). Estimated Federal cost is $2,860,000. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. In addition to usual requirements, local interests must at least annually inform individuals concerned about residual flood problem involved owing to temporary ponding; prevent encroachment on river channel, which would reduce design flow capacity through leveed section and on ponding areas and interior drains; and if ponding area is impaired, provide substitute storage or equivalent pumping capacity promptly without cost to United States; and alter existing improvements, other than railroad bridges and approaches in connection therewith. In addition, construction will begin concurrent with or subsequent to replacement of United States Highway 50 bridge across Arkansas River; and in event local interests desire to create planned fishing lake at time Federal project is constructed, they must contribute cost of excavating fishing lake in excess of cost of borrow material from least costly alternative source currently estimated at $33,000, and hold United States free from water rights claims. Construction of U.S. Highway 50 bridge across Arkansas River has been completed. Inasmuch as the flood control project extends beyond the corporate city limits of Las Animas, Colorado, the Arkansas River Conservancy District, Las Animas, Colorado, a political subdivision duly constituted and organized under the laws of the State of Colorado, is the sponsoring agency which will furnish required local cooperation. Conservancy District has jurisdiction and power to levy taxes both in the city and in those areas outside city limits affected by the project. Prior to authorization of project, the Conservancy District pledged in writing that it favored project and would furnish required local cooperation. Estimated non-Federal cost is $340,000. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preconstruction planning was continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is about 97 percent complete and all planning is about 69 percent complete. 8. LAS CRUCES, N. MEX. Location. On tributaries of Rio Grande at Las Cruces, Dona Ana County, N. Mex., about 87 miles downstream from Elephant Butte Dam. (See Geological Survey Map for Las Cruces, N. Mex., quadrangle, scale 1:62,500.) Existing project. Consists of Las Cruces Dam which extends across Alameda and Las Cruces Arroyos. The dam will be provided with an uncontrolled outlet and spillway. Las Cruces Dam, about 1,000 feet east of Las Cruces city limits, will be earthfill construction about 15,570 feet long and 67 feet high with both slopes protected. Discharges from dam will be conveyed downstream in channel of Alameda Arroyo for about 10,968 feet and then by means of an unlined, trapezoidal channel for about 13,910 feet to Rio Grande. Reservoir capacity is 13,200 acre-feet at maximum water surface and 8,200 acre-feet at spillway crest. Controlled drainage area is 28.9 square miles. Estimated Federal cost is $5,- 980,000. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. In addition to usual requirements, local interests must alter existing improvements, other than railroads; prevent encroachment upon outlet channel from Las Cruces Dam to Rio Grande in order to maintain a channel capacity of 275 cubic feet per second; and prevent encroachment, other than natural sediment deposits, on the reservoir area which would reduce its storage capacity. Estimated non-Federal cost is $1,360,000. Formal request for assurances was transmitted to city of Las Cruces by letter dated December 3, 1965, which constituted formal notification of commencement of 5-year period of project authorization during which time local interests must fulfill requirements of local cooperation. City has cash resources of $536,000 available from bond issue; however, that amount is insufficient to meet total estimated costs of local cooperation ($1,360,000). Las Cruces Metropolitan Arroyo Flood Control Authority, created to take over the requirement of local cooperation because city had exhausted its bonding capability, was dissolved after defeat of bond issue on January 30, 1968. On February 20, 1968, Mayor of Las Cruces stated that city had resumed work 17-6 ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT and was actively pursuing financing of local cooperation requirements and would explore possible sources of revenue and funding. City used proceeds available from original bond issue ($536,000) to obtain possession and gain control of lands for Las Cruces Dam portion of project to head off further escalation of land prices. Acquisition of lands and rights-of-way for the Las Cruces Dam has been completed. The City of Las Cruces requested the Campus Dam portion be deleted from the project. The New Mexico State University plans to solve the Campus Arroyo flood problem locally Operations and results during fiscal year. Changes in design of the outlet channel are under consideration. This design change involves use of the existing Dona Ana Drain instead of the originally proposed outlet channel. This change is preferred by the city and is in their long range master plan for drainage. The city is negotiating with the Bureau of Reclamation for use of the Dona Ana Drain for multi-purpose flows. The city forwarded a resolution dated November 17, 1970, supporting and pledging cooperation for this revised outlet channel plan. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is continuing. 9. LOS ESTEROS LAKE, N. MEX. Location. Los Esteros Lake is in Guadalupe County, on Pecos River, at river mile 766.4 approximately 7 miles north of Santa Rosa, N. Mex. (See U.S. Geological Survey map, Corazon, N. Mex., sheet, scale 1:125,000.) Existing project. Authorized plan of improvement consists of an earth and rock fill dam 1,950 feet long and 212 feet maximum height above the streambed. Project purposes are flood control, irrigation and sediment retention. An unlined, open rock cut about 1,000 feet back from the left abutment serves as an uncontrolled spillway. The outlet works, located in the left abutment, consists of a control tower, intake structure with gates, and a 10 foot diameter concrete tunnel with a terminal flip bucket energy dissipater. An auxiliary earthfill dam 1,310 feet long with a maximum height of 15 feet is located in a saddle depression about 4,000 feet to the left of the main dam abutment. Storage capacity at the spillway crest is 529,500 acre-feet which includes 82,000 sediment storage, 200,000 acre-feet irrigation storage and 247,500 acre-feet flood control storage. Surface area of the reservoir at the spillway crest is 12,294 acres. Contributing drainage area at the damsite is 2,479 square miles. Authorized project also includes modification of the existing Alamogordo Dam and Reservoir on the Pecos River, (river mile 710.8) about 56 miles downstream from Los Esteros Lake. This modification provided for a reservoir capacity of 210,000 acre-feet by raising the dam embankment 10.5 feet and constructing an emergency spillway through the ridge on the right abutment. Changes to the service spillway were to limit the discharge to the capacity of the existing chute spillway and tainters. Project document also reallocated the storage in Alamogordo Dam and Reservoir to exclusive flood control use. Subsequent to project authorization, the Bureau of Reclamation modified the existing structure to its feasible limit without major reconstruction. This modification consisted of raising the dam height 16 feet, altering the existing service spillway to limit the discharge to 56,000 c.f.s., and constructing an uncontrolled emergency spillway in the left abutment. The spillway capacity is 206,000 c.f.s. Storage allocation studies in response to authorizing document provides for transfer of all but 20,000 acre-feet of irrigation storage to Los Esteros Lake with remainder of storage in Alamogordo Reservoir reserved for flood control purpose. This transfer will be done under terms of the Pecos River Compact with consent of the Carlsbad Irrigation District. The estimated Federal (Corps of Engineers) cost for Los Esteros Lake is $16,600,000. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. In addition to first costs, operation and maintenance of both reservoirs will be responsibility of Federal Government; however, Carlsbad Irrigation District will be required to contribute to operation and maintenance costs an annual amount equal to what they now pay toward Alamogordo Dam. Carlsbad Irrigation District also will be required to agree to use of Alamogordo Reservoir for flood-control purposes. Because they will realize equivalent benefits from storage capacity in Los Esteros Lake, they will be required to continue to fulfill their repayment obligation. Project was authorized subject to the provision that "no appropriation shall be made for construction of Los Esteros Lake until satisfactory arrangements have been made by the State of New Mexico for the transfer of irrigation storage from the Alamogordo Reservoir." Engineer advisors to Pecos River Compact Commission have completed water studies to determine the effects of project on water supply in Pecos River basin. Corps, U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, Carlsbad Irrigation District, and engineer advisors to Texas and New Mexico commissioners participated in studies. Completed studies have been approved 17-7 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 and accepted by Pecos River Compact Commission and State Engineer of New Mexico. A memorandum of agreement has been executed between the Corps of Engineers and the U. S. Bureau of Reclamation who has executed an agreement with the Carlsbad Irrigation District for transfer of this irrigation storage from the Alamogordo Reservoir to Los Esteros Lake. Ft. Sumner Irrigation District has submitted a formal protest of the agreement between U. S. Bureau of Reclamation and Carlsbad Irrigation District. Operations and results during fiscal year. The general design memorandum was approved on September 17, 1970. Plans and specifications for construction of the access road (Phase I) were approved. Acquisition of required rights-of-way for this road was continued. The feature design memorandum for the outlet works, embankment, spillway and project buildings was continued. The Real Estate design memorandum for dam site work area and public use area was approved by OCE during the year. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is complete. Initiation of construction is pending the settlement of a formal protest filed by the Ft. Sumner Irrigation District against transfer of irrigation storage from Alamogordo Dam to Los Esteros Lake. Plans and specifications for construction of the access road (Phase I) are complete. The feature design memorandum for the outlet works, embankment, spillway and project buildings is about 80 percent complete. 10. RIO GRANDE BASIN, N. MEX. Location. Improvements are on Rio Grande and tributaries in New Mexico. More definite locations and descriptions of individual projects are in following paragraphs and individual reports by projects. Existing project. Flood Control Act of 1948 authorized flood control phase of comprehensive plan of development of water resources of Rio Grande basin in New Mexico (H. Doc. 243, 81st Cong., 1st sess.) with exception of Chiflo Dam and Reservoir and spillway gate structure at Chamita Dam. Although recommended 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 required storage and methods of operation. By same act, Congress also authorized for construction irrigation phase of comprehensive plan as recommended by Bureau of Reclamation (H. Doc. 653, 81st Cong., 2d sess.). The act also stipulated that work should be prosecuted in accordance with joint agreement approved by Secretary of the Army and Acting Secretary of the Interior on November 21, 1957. In addition, under that agreement Bureau of Reclamation was given responsibility for construction, operation, and maintenance of channel rectification, and draintge rehabilitation and extension phases of unified plan of improvement. Authority for Chamita Dam and Reservoir was abrogated when Cochiti Dam and Reservoir was authorized. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation and Table 17-C for existing projects.) All operations and costs for projects in authorized plan are in individual reports on the following pages. 10A. ABIQUIU DAM, N. MEX. Location. Project is one unit of flood control phase of comprehensive plan for Rio Grande and tributaries, New Mexico. Abiquiu Dam is on Rio Chama near town of Abiquiu, N. Mex., about 32 miles upstream from confluence of Rio Chama and Rio Grande. (See Geological Survey Map for plan and profile of Rio Chama, N. Mex., from mouth to mile 103, sheet 1, and Army Map Service, Aztec, N. Mex.; Colorado NJ 13-10, scale 1:250,000.) Existing project. An earthfill dam 1,540 feet long, rising 325 feet above streambed, with a 12-foot diameter controlled outlet, and an uncontrolled spillway in a natural saddle about one mile north of left abutment. Reservoir provides 569,400 acre-feet of flood control and sediment storage. Total capacity at spillway crest is 1,- 215,800 acre-feet. Estimated Federal cost is $21,272,300. (See table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Operations and results during fiscal year. Ordinary maintenance and operation continued. Storage and flows were regulated in accordance with regulations prescribed by Rio Grande Compact Commission. On July 1, 1971, pool elevation was 6,109.74 with corresponding storage of 2,150 acre-feet. Storage varied from about 1,942 acre-feet to 4,052 acre-feet during the period from July 1, 1971, to June 30, 1972. Maximum pool elevation of 6,116.38 with corresponding storage of 4,052 acre-feet occurred on September 30, 1971. Maximum release of 1,283 c.f.s. occurred on October 1, 1971. Pool elevation was 6,108.67 with corresponding storage of 1,949 acre-feet on June 30, 1972. Storage on September 30 reduced a peak of about 3,500 c.f.s. to non-damaging flows in the lower reaches of the Rio Chama. Accumulated flood and sediment damages prevented by the project since completion were $1,041,000 through fiscal year 1971. 17-8 ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT Condition at end of fiscal year. Project was placed in operation in February 1963. 10B. COCHITI LAKE, N. MEX. Location. Dam is at river mile 340 on Rio Grande (river mile 0 being at intersection of New Mexico-Texas State line with international boundary at El Paso, Tex.), near village of Cochiti, which is about 50 miles upstream from Albuquerque, N. Mex. (See Geological Survey Maps, Cochiti Dam, N. Mex., Quadrangle and Santo Domingo Pueblo, N. Mex., quadrangle, scale 1:24,000.) Existing project. Consists of an earthfill dam about 5.1 miles long with a maximum height of 251 feet above streambed. Project will extend generally in an east-west line across Rio Grande to a point about 2 miles east of Rio Grande and then southward across Santa Fe River. An uncontrolled spillway with a 460-foot-long ogee-weir and a 160-foot notch 10 feet deep in center will be at end of embankment on south side of Santa Fe River. Operational releases for flood control and irrigation will be made through a 3-barrel gated conduit in left abutment on Rio Grande. No outlet will be provided on Santa Fe River. Dead storage in Santa Fe River and Canada de Cochiti arms of reservoir will be eliminated by means of conveyance channels. Construction will also involve relocation of a gravel-surfaced Forest Service road and an irrigation headworks and canal. Reservoir will have a storage capacity of 442,000 acre-feet for flood control, 110,000 acre-feet for sediment, and 50,000 acre-feet for recreation a total of 602,000 acre-feet. Storage capacity for permanent pool for recreation will be provided by slightly modifying the operating procedures. Modification of project structures, except for specific recreation facilities, will not be necessary because of permanent pool. Estimated Federal cost is $85,900,000. (See table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Operations and results during fiscal year. Construction continued on embankment and conveyance channels, portions of outlet and spillway, phase 2 road relocation, utilities, structures, reservoir clearing, service road, overlook facilities, and parking area. Work continued on master plan. Conditions at end of fiscal year. The master plan is about 95 percent complete. The access road, operation building and maintenance facilities, spillway (except for outlet and inlet, gallery, supplementary apron and foundation drains included in embankment contract), outlet works (except for inlet and outlet and bridge to tower in embankment contract), overlook shelter, and parking facilities are complete. The embankment contract is about 46 percent complete. The overall project is about 57 percent complete. 10C. GALISTEO DAM, N. MEX. Location. Dam is at river mile 12 on Galisteo Creek, a tributary of Rio Grande. Definite project site is about 8 miles upstream of project document site. Reservoir will extend upstream from dam for about 4 miles to near village of Waldo, N. Mex. (See Geological Survey Map, San Pedro 1, N. Mex. quadrangle scale 1:24,000.) Existing project. Consists of an earthfill dam 2,820 feet long with a maximum height of 158 feet above streambed. The outlet works consist of a 10-foot diameter uncontrolled outlet with a discharge capacity of 4,980 cubic feet per second with pool at spillway crest elevation. The spillway is a broad crested weir 250 feet long in right abutment. The flood control storage is 89,900 acre-feet at the spillway crest elevation. The 50-year sediment storage is 10,200 acre-feet. The Santa Fe River, which enters Rio Grande about 5 miles upstream from mouth of Galisteo Creek, will be diverted into Cochiti Lake instead of Galisteo Dam reservoir as provided in project document plan (S. Doc. 94, 86th Cong., 2d Session). Estimated Federal cost is $14,212,500. Operations and results during fiscal year. Construction was completed on overlook shelter and comfort station. Operation of the project began on October 11, 1970. Peak inflow of about 8,000 c.f.s. on July 26 was reduced to 2,000 c.f.s. below the project. Flows in Rio Grande would not have exceeded channel capacity. There was storage from July 19, 1971 to July 31, 1971. The maximum daily flow through the reservoir was 1,148 c.f.s. on July 27, 1971. Maximum pool elevation of 5,516.36 with corresponding storage of 2,760 acre-feet occurred on July 26, 1971. There was storage at no other time. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of the project was initiated in July 1965 and physically completed in September 1970. 10OD. JEMEZ CANYON DAM, N. MEX. Location. In Sandoval County, N. Mex., on Jemez River about 2 miles upstream from confluence of Jemez River and Rio Grande, about 5 miles northwest of Bernalillo, N. Mex. (See Geological Survey Map for Bernalillo quadrangle, scale 1:125,000.) Existing project. An earthfill dam 780 feet long with a maximum height of 136 feet above streambed, and off-channel uncontrolled saddle spillway 400 feet wide, and a 13-foot diameter 17-9 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 gated outlet in left abutment with discharge capacity of 8,340 cubic feet per second with pool at spillway crest elevation. Reservoir has a capacity of 111,698 acre-feet (73,000 acre-feet for flood control and 38,698 acre-feet for sediment control). It is estimated that 70,000 acre-feet of storage will be available in the reservoir for flood control after 50 years of project life. Federal cost was $4,177,417. (See table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Operations and results during fiscal year. Ordinary maintenance and operation continued. Reservoir was empty on July 1, 1971, and remained empty most of the fiscal year except for short periods of sediment control storage during July, August, and September 1971. There was no flood control regulation for the fiscal year. The maximum pool elevation was 5,150.80 on Sept. 30, 1971, with a corresponding storage of 472 acre-feet. Estimated total accumulated flood and sediment damages prevented by project through fiscal year 1971 were $1,699,000. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of project was initiated May 1950 and completed May 1954. 10E. RIO GRANDE FLOODWAY, N. MEX. Location. Project is one unit of flood control phase of comprehensive plan of improvement for Rio Grande Basin in New Mexico. It is on Rio Grande and covers section of river commencing near Truth or Consequences (formerly Hot Springs) at about river mile 123 and extends upstream to lower end of Rio Grande Canyon about 14 miles upstream from Espanola, N. Mex., about river mile 394. (See table 17-D on Rio Grande Floodway.) Existing project. Consists of flood protection and major drainage improvements by channel rectification, levee enlargement and construction, and bank stabilization work where needed to protect levees. Construction of project is a joint undertaking by Bureau of Reclamation and the Corps. Portions to be done by Corps will consist of levee enlargement, construction, and bank protection work, with channel-rectification and drainage-rehabilitation work the responsibility of Bureau of Reclamation. Levees constructed by local interests exist through reach of river involved, but are not uniform as to grade, section, or standard of construction, and in many places are threatened by meandering river. (See table 17-D on existing project and table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. In addition to usual requirements, local interests are responsible for all highway, bridge, and public utility relocations or replacements required in construction of project. Fully complied with for completed units of floodway. Total costs for all requirements for completed Albuquerque unit under terms of project authorization were $75,000. There were no non-Federal costs in connection with construction of Cochiti to Rio Puerco unit of floodway. Espanola Valley unit was inactive for several years; however, in December 1963, local interests reaffirmed need for flood protection for city of Espanola, and indicated in writing that they were willing and able to provide necessary rights-of-way for levees and make utility relocations required in construction of project. Project was reclassified to active category, and funds were appropriated for initiation of preconstruction planning in fiscal year 1966. Progress on this project has been slow because the local sponsor was extremely dilatory in meeting the request for rights-of-entry in order to perform surveys. Right-of-entry was finally obtained on May 15, 1967, from the Indian Pueblo of Santa Clara which is the principal landowner affected by the project. Coordination with the Santa Clara Pueblo officials in determining an acceptable location for the levees is continuing. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preconstruction planning for the Espanola Valley unit of the floodway was continued. The Corps has been asked to expand the project to provide protection to more Pueblo lands and are awaiting formal written request from Bureau of Indian Affairs. Estimated total accumulated flood damages prevented by the floodway project through fiscal year 1971 amounted to $860,000. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of Albuquerque and Cochiti to Rio Puerco units of Rio Grande Floodway project is complete. San Acacia to Bosque del Apache and Truth or Consequences (Hot Springs) units of floodway are deferred for restudy. Hydrology and general design memoranda for Espanola Valley unit have been approved. Preconstruction planning will continue when the full extent of the project is determined by local officials. 11. TRINIDAD LAKE, COLO. Location. On Purgatoire River about 161 miles above its junction with Arkansas River. Project is about 4 miles upstream from city of Trinidad, Colo. (See Geological Survey Map, Trinidad, Colo., quadrangle, scale 1:24,000.) Existing project. Consists of an earthfill structure 6,610 feet long, with a maximum height of 200 feet above streambed, an uncontrolled spillway 1,000 feet wide in left abutment, and a 17-10 ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT 10-foot diameter, gate-controlled conduit in right abutment with discharge capacity of 4,850 cubic feet per second with water surface at top of flood control pool. Reservoir provides for storage of 51,000 acre-feet for flood control, 39,000 acre-feet for sediment, 20,000 acre-feet irrigation, and 4,500 acre-feet for recreation, a total of 114,500 acre-feet. Reservoir controls a drainage area of 606 square miles and will be operated for flood and sediment control, irrigation, and recreation purposes. Estimated Federal cost is $35,- 000,000 (CE) & $160,000 (USBR). (See table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Requirements based on approved general design memorandum studies: Repayment by Purgatoire River Water Conservancy District of first cost allocated to irrigation established as 29.28 percent of total project cost presently estimated at $9,768,000 (1971 prices) generally in accordance with Federal reclamation law procedures, except that repayment of irrigation first cost may extend over a period not to exceed 75 years including a 5-year development period which results in an actual amortization period of 70 years; contribution of $21,400 annually by State of Colorado for replacement of evaporation and seepage losses from permanent fishery pool; Purgatoire River Water Conservancy District (representing the irrigators) is required to bear 19.82 percent of annual joint-use operation and maintenance costs and 2.52 percent of major replacement costs presently estimated at $13,600 annually; in addition, estimated annual cost to city of Trinidad for maintenance of channel of Purgatoire River through city is $1,100. In addition conservancy district must make arrangements for transfer of Model Land and Irrigation Co.'s storage rights from existing Model Reservoir to Trinidad Reservoir. Storage for recreation purposes not included in authorized project plan; however, project document noted that substantial benefits would be derived from such use and that there was strong local support for such storage. Provision was made in project plan for 4,500 acre-feet of permanent storage for recreation; however, since flows of Purgatoire River are fully appropriated, water rights will have to be acquired by non-Federal interests. Estimated cost of initial filling of pool is $250,000 and replacement of evaporation losses will cost an estimated $21,400 per year. Lands and facilities for recreation will be provided at Federal expense, but cost of water rights will be borne by the State 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 contract. 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 Animas County, Colorado, District Court April 15, 1965, subject to ultimate execution and approval of irrigation repayment contract, which qualifying condition is now removed. Purgatoire River Water Conservancy District, representing water users, signed prime irrigation repayment contract January 21, 1967. Prime contract was then signed by Regional Director, Region 7, Bureau of Reclamation February 10, 1967, under delegated authority of U.S. Department of Interior. Contract is dated February 10, 1967. Irrigation repayment contract was confirmed by decree of Las Animas County, Colorado, District Court entered into March 21, 1967, and 30-day period of appeal required by Colorado statutes expired with no appeals being filed. Operations and results during fiscal year. Real estate acquisition continued. Construction of Site Preparation, County Road (Phase I) and Jansen Reservoir contracts were completed during the year. Final agreements for the relocation of existing powerlines, telephone lines and design and construction of Colorado State Highway No. 12 were finalized during the year. Plans and specifications for the Colorado State Highway relocation are about 80 percent complete. The contract for embankment, spillway, relocated railroad and water supply line was awarded in June 1972. Design memorandum for the reservoir clearing was submitted for approval in May 1972. Condition at end of year. Land acquisition is essentially complete. The controlled outlet works are complete except for some operation and maintenance work. The cemetary relocation is complete. The relocation of the county road (Phase I) is complete. The site preparation contract is complete. The contract for embankment, spillway, relocation of railroad and water supply lines was awarded in June 1972. The cost reimbursable agreements were finalized in FY 1972 for relocation of the powerlines, telephone lines and Colorado State Highway No. 12. Overall project completion is estimated at 33 percent. 12. TWO RIVERS DAM, N. MEX. Location. About 14 miles southwest of Roswell, N. Mex., on Rio Hondo. Rio Hondo is formed at confluence of Rio Ruidoso and Rio Bonito, near village of Hondo, N. Mex., in foothills region of Sierra Blanca in southeastern part of Lincoln County, N. Mex., and flows generally easterly to its confluence with Pecos River near Roswell, N. Mex. (See Geological Survey Map, Hondo Reservoir quadrangle, scale 1:24,000.) 17-11 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Existing project. Two earthfill dams, Diamond "A" Dam on Rio Hondo at about river mile 34 and Rocky Dam on Rocky Arroyo at about river mile 10, which will form Two Rivers Reservoir. Diamond "A" Dam is 98 feet high and 4,885 feet long and Rocky Dam is 118 feet high and 2,940 feet long. Topography of site permits use of two natural saddles in limestone on rim of reservoir for spillways which have a total length of 1,130 feet. One of the spillway saddles is between the dams and one is south of Rocky Dam. There is a gated outlet works structure in Diamond "A" Dam and an uncontrolled outlet in Rocky Dam. No provision is made for storage except for flood control. Flood releases will be controlled insofar as possible, so that flows through Roswell will not exceed channel capacity of Rio Hondo, which is about 1,000 cubic feet per second. Capacity of Two Rivers Reservoir at spillway crest is 168,000 acre-feet, of which 18,000 acre-feet are provided for sedimentation reserve, but which will be utilized for flood control until filled with sediment. Dam controls 963 square miles of drainage area on Rio Hondo and 64 square miles on Rocky Arroyo, a total of 1,027 square miles. Federal cost was $4,790,838. (See table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Complied with. Total cost to local interests was $144,000, of which $60,000 was for construction of access road and $84,000 for lands and rights-of-way. Operations and results during fiscal year. Ordinary maintenance and operation continued. Reservoir was empty July 1, 1971. Reservoir was operated for flood control from July 24, 1971, through August 6, 1971. The peak mean daily inflow was 639 c.f.s. on August 1, 1971. Maximum release was 328 c.f.s. on August 2, 1971. Estimated total accumulated flood damages prevented through fiscal year 1971 were $2,- 211,000. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is complete and was placed in operation July 1963. 13. INSPECTION OF COMPLETED FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS Included under this heading is inspection of completed flood control projects transferred to local interests for operation and maintenance. Projects in Colorado and New Mexico were inspected. Fiscal year cost was $6,907 and total cost to June 30, 1972, was $53,784. 14. SCHEDULING FLOOD CONTROL RESERVOIR OPERATIONS Pursuant to section 7, Flood Control Act of 1944, expenditures were made for scheduling flood control reservoir operations and preparation of reservoir regulation manual for Platoro Dam on Conejos River near town of Platoro, Conejos County, Colo. Platoro Dam was authorized by Interior Appropriation Act of 1941 (see H. Doc. 693, 76th Cong., 3d sess.). Construction of project was completed by Bureau of Reclamation in fiscal year 1952. Reservoir elevation at the start of the fiscal year 1972 was 9,958.3 feet with a corresponding storage of 8,200 acre-feet. This was the maximum storage for the year. Storage was reduced to 2,- 900 acre-feet at elevation 9,942.0 feet by July 31, 1971. Operation of Platoro Dam was suspended for the winter on October 31, 1971. Storage increased during the unattended period and by March 22, 1972, the pool elevation was 9,948.0 feet with a storage of 4,600 acre-feet. Storage fluctuated between 4,600 and 4,300 acre-feet through June 20, 1972, and remained at this storage for the rest of the fiscal year. The maximum release for the fiscal year was 361 c.f.s. on June 5, 1972. There was no flood control regulation during FY 1972. Total accumulated flood damages prevented were $963,000 through FY 1971. Fiscal year costs were $3,549 and total costs to June 30, 1972, were $48,779. 15. OTHER AUTHORIZED FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS See table 17-E. 16.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT During the fiscal year, 162 stream-gaging stations were operated, of which 70 were operated cooperatively by Geological Survey and Corps, and remainder independently by one or other of these agencies. Suspended sediment samples were collected at 39 stations during fiscal year in cooperation with Geological Survey, and suspended loads were determined at certain stations. One hundred twelve rainfall and/or river reporting stations were operated in a cooperative program by National Weather Service and Corps for use in forecasting streamflow for flood warning and operation of lake projects. Records also were collected at certain hydroclimatic rainfall stations under a cooperative program of the two agencies. General hydrologic studies relating to streamflow frequency and distribution were continued. Aeration test at Table Rock was conducted for improvement of water quality in downstream Lake Taneycomo. Bull Shoals Lake and tailwater study, when completed, will provide a reliable estimate of (1) fisherman use in terms of man-hours and man-days; (2) fisherman harvest, by species, in terms of numbers, lengths and weights; and (3) a comparison of fisherman use estimates on Bull Shoals Lake by two methods. Results will be of value to Corps of Engineers and other wildlife agencies involved in study. Cost for fiscal year was $38,911, of which $5,136 was for engineering studies, $2,004 was for hydrologic studies, and $31,771 was for plan formulation and evaluation studies at Bull Shoals Lake. 18-11 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 TABLE 18-A COST AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT See Section Total to in Text Project Funding FY 69 FY 70 FY 71 FY 72 June 30, 1972 1.

Ohio River is formed by junction, of Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers at Pittsburgh, Pa., and flows generally southwesterly for 981 miles to join Mississippi River near Cairo, Ill. For description of river see page 1227, 1932 Annual Report. Previous projects. For details see page 1907 of Annual Report for 1915. Existing project. Provides for improvement of entire river by construction of locks and dams to provide a channel depth of 9 feet and for widening Louisville and Portland Canal at Louisville, Ky. Project provides for a lock with usable dimensions of 110 by 600 feet at each of the dams and, in addition, an auxiliary lock 56 by 360 feet is available at Emsworth, Dashields, Montgomery, and McAlpine locks and dams with an auxiliary lock at Gallipolis being 110 by 360 feet. Dashields is a fixed dam, while Emsworth, Montgomery, and Gallipolis are fixed dams with movable crests. Remaining dams are movable type, with navigable pass varying in width from 600 to 1,- 248 feet. In addition to navigable pass, movable- type dams are also provided with one or more regulating weirs. At McAlpine locks and dam a canal (Louisville and Portland) extends along left bank for 2 miles, with locks at lower end. Modifications to existing project under purview of Section 6, March 3, 1909 Act, provide for fixed dams with movable crests with two locks (110 by 1,200 feet and 110 by 600 feet) at New Cumberland, Pike Island, Hannibal, Willow Island, Belleville, Racine, Greenup, Captain Anthony Meldahl, Markland, Cannelton, Newburgh, Uniontown, and Mound City, two locks 110 by 1,200 feet at Smithland, a 110 by 1,200 foot temporary lock in addition to the existing lock at lock and dam 52, and reconstruction to provide a 110 by 1,200 foot lock in addition to existing locks and a fixed dam with two sections of movable crest at McAlpine locks and dam, widening Louisville and Portland Canal to 500 feet. Operation and care of locks and dams were included in project July 1, 1935, under provisions of Permanent Appropriations Repeal Act of June 26, 1934. Estimated Federal cost of new work (existing project) (1972), exclusive of Gallipolis locks and dam reported under Kanawha River project is $1,385,705,709, estimated non-Federal cost is $9,348,000. Foregoing estimate does not include expenditures on previous projects. Various items previously included in this project are considered Inactive or unnecessary and are excluded from * Tributary navigation projects and all nood control projects in Ohio River Basin are in reports of districts included in Ohio River Division. 22-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 foregoing cost estimate.

Engineering and design of remaining project features continued; $16,743,899. Smithland locks and dam: Project is 11 percent complete. Construction of locks initiated in June 1971 is 19 percent complete. Phase IV of contract for reservoir mapping is 90 percent complete. Land acquisition is 13 percent complete. Hired labor operations involved foundation explorations and preparation of plans and specifications for construction of the dam and design memoranda; engineering and design is about 60 percent complete; $17,898,730. Lock and Dam No. 52 (New Lock): Roadway paving and entire project was completed; $26,- 652. Mound City locks and dam: Report on reevaluation submitted in FY 1971; further planning suspended pending outcome of review of above report; engineering and design remains about 20 percent complete; minor work accomplished on reservoir mapping involved preparation of compilation manuscripts adjacent to Smithland project area. Mapping contract is about 45 percent complete; $56,512. Operation and maintenance, general: Locks and dams operated as required and necessary repairs and improvements made thereto and to operator's quarters, grounds and esplanades. Costs were $2,730,408 for Pittsburgh District, $3,292,423 for Huntington District and $3.937,926 for Louisville District. Condition at end of fiscal year. Navigation system of 28 locks and dams is in operation and 9-foot navigation throughout length of river is generally available at all times. At certain unstable bars project depth is maintained by dredging, supplemented by contraction works. (See "Open channel work, Ohio River.") Table 22-D shows cost and year of completion of locks and dams now in operation. Existing project does not provide adequate facilities for present-day navigation due to obsolescence of structures. Since repair and modernization of these facilities would be extremely costly, replacement and reconstruction is being accomplished as rapidly as funds are made available for the purpose. Construction of lock and dam replacement program was initiated in fiscal year 1955. New Cumberland, Pike Island, Belleville, Racine, Greenup, Captain Anthony Meldahl, Markland, and McAlpine replacement locks and dams are in operation, replacing 22-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 24 old low-lift locks and dams. Construction of Hannibal locks and dam to replace locks and dams 12, 13 and 14 was initiated in fiscal year 1966; Racine locks and dam initiated in fiscal year 1964 has replaced locks and dams 21, 22 and 23; Cannelton locks and dam to replace locks and dams 43, 44 and 45 was initiated in fiscal year 1962; Newburgh locks and dam to replace locks and dams 46 and 47 and Uniontown locks and dam to replace locks and dams 48 and 49 were initiated in fiscal year 1965. For total cost of existing project, see table 22-B. 2. OPEN CHANNEL WORK, OHIO RIVER Location. Under jurisdiction of district engineer in whose district the work is located. 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 improvement 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 dams, 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 construction and maintenance of ice piers as required for protection of river craft. Stage of extreme high water on Ohio River varies from 46 feet at Pittsburgh, Pa., to 80 feet at Cincinnati, Ohio, with 57.2 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 of new work (1960) is $16,- 160,000, exclusive of following items 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 revetment at various points. Estimated cost of these items (1954) is $6,565,000. Operation of snag boats on Ohio River below Pennsylvania State line was included in project July 1, 1935, under provisions of Permanent Appropriations Repeal Act of June 26, 1934. See table 22-E for authorizing legislation. Local cooperation. River and Harbor Act of January 21, 1927, authorizing construction of ice piers for general open channel work, imposes condition that before work is begun on any pier, local interests convey to the United States free of cost such riparian rights as may be deemed necessary in connection with the improvement at locality (H. Doc. 187, 67th Cong., 2d sess.). Existing ice piers are adequate for present purposes and local cooperation is not needed since no additional construction is under consideration. River and Harbor Act of July 3, 1930, provides for reforestation of sloughs of Kentucky Peninsula and bank protection and that no expense shall be incurred by the United States for acquiring lands required for purpose of this improvement (H. Doc. 409, 69th Cong., 1st sess.). However, since no serious overbank erosion has occurred since bank revetment in 1933-34, reforestation is not considered justifiable at this time and no local cooperation is required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Operation and maintenance, general: Dredging, where required to provide an adequate and dependable channel of project depth at minimum pool conditions, was executed. Dike and revetments maintained and routine work of maintaining navigation aids, removing snags, making channel studies, hydrographic surveys and mapping was performed as required. Channel soundings, hydrographic surveys, stream gaging operations, channel inspections and aids to navigation, and miscellaneous inspections and reports cost $774,956. Dredging by hired labor: Huntington District 425,460 cubic yards at $140,408 and Louisville District, 2,321,445 cubic yards at $472,212, and dredging by contract Huntington District 64,712 cubic yards at $69,791. Minor hired labor repair of the revetment at Kentucky Peninsula was accomplished in the fiscal year at a cost of $5,425. Condition at end of fiscal year. New work under this project is substantially complete, since it is not anticipated that work on inactive portion of project will be accomplished. In addition to dredging, local stabilization of channel has been effected at various points by construction of dikes and revetment. Work which remains consists of dredging to widen channels at certain points to project depth. 22-4 OHIO RIVER TABLE 22-A COST AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT See Section Total to in Text Project Funding FY 69 FY 70 FY 71 FY 72 June 30, 1972 1.

Formed by junction of Poor and Clover Forks in Harlan County, Ky., about 694.2 miles above its mouth, and flows west to Burnside, Ky., from whence it makes a loop southwestward into Tennessee, passes Nashville, and returns northwestward to Kentucky, emptying into Ohio River near Smithland, Ky. (See Geological Survey base maps of Tennessee and Kentucky.) Previous projects. For details see pages 1898 and 1901 of Annual Report for 1915, and page 1208 of Annual Report for 1938. Existing project. Below Nashville: For information concerning construction of locks and dams A, B, C, D, E and F, required dredging and related costs to secure 6 foot navigation, see pages 1069 and 1070 of Annual Report for 1962. Improvement of Cumberland River between mouth and Nashville was authorized for 9-foot navigation; increased project depth to be obtained by construction of three moderate height dams with lockage facilities, designated as Kuttawa (Eureka), Dover, and Cheatham, to replace existing locks A to F inclusive below Nashville and lock 1 above Nashville. (See table 23-B for authorizing legislation.) Subsequent authorities provided or construction of hydroelectric power- generating facilities at Cheatham Dam, river * All cost and financial statements for projects are listed at the end of this chapter. All other tables are referenced in text and also appear at the end of this chapter. 23-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 mile 148.7, and 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 construction of a multiple-purpose improvement consisting of a dam, lock, and powerplant near mile 30.6 on lower Cumberland River and a canal for navigation and other purposes connecting this reservoir with reservoir formed by Kentucky Dam on the Tennessee River. The project is known as Barkley Dam and Lake Barkley. Provision of interconnecting canal, involving excavation of a channel through narrow watershed divide about 2.5 miles upstream from damsite, permits alternative routes available for navigation between either Cumberland or Tennessee Rivers and Ohio River, and will afford integrated operation of Barkley and Kentucky Reservoirs through diversion of flows in interests of flood control and power production. Estimated cost of modified project for 9-foot navigation and multiple-purpose development is $176,100,500 (July 1971). (See table 23-C for listing of principal features.) 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 Lock and Dam to a range of about 7 feet at Nashville. Seasonal variation in normal headwater levels at Lake Barkley is 5 feet, which in combination with power flows produces fluctuations up to 10 feet below Cheatham Lock and Dam. Above Nashville: See pages 1693 thru 1696 of Annual Report for 1950 for information including statistical data on locks and dams 1 to 17 and 21. Completion information is shown on pages 1454 of the report for 1951. See Table 23-B for Authorizing Legislation. Construction of Old Hickory, Carthage, and Celina Dams above Nashville was also authorized for navigation and power. The dam and reservoir authorized for construction on Cumberland River near Carthage, Tenn., has been redesignated as Cordell Hull Dam and Reservoir. Cost of Old Hickory and Cordell Hull projects, including locks, is estimated as $127,435,100 (July 1971). Estimated cost of Celina Dam (1959) is $39,100,000. (See table 23-C at end of chapter for listing of principal features.) Under flood conditions as presently regulated, including effect of surcharge operation of Old Hickory project, extreme fluctuations of stage in this section of river vary from a range of 35 feet at Nashville (mile 191) to a maximum of 46 feet immediately below Old Hickory Dam (mile 216.2), and from an 8-foot variation in headwater at dam to 36 feet in vicinity of Carthage, Tenn., (mile 313.5), present head of navigation; with variations up to 35 feet at Celina, Tenn. (mile 380.8) and 29 feet in tailwater at Wolf Creek Dam (mile 460.9). Maximum fluctuations under ordinary conditions from power flows vary from about 7 feet at Nashville to 14 and 3 feet, respectively, in tailwater and headwater of Old Hickory Dam, and at other key points as follows: 13 feet at Carthage; 18 feet at Celina; and 19 feet at Wolf Creek Dam. Further details on river sections below shown on Table 23-B. project authorization for and above Nashville are Local cooperation. Fully complied with for 6-foot navigation project. Under modified project for 9-foot navigation and multiple-purpose development, recreation features of reservoir components are subject to certain conditions of non-Federal cost-sharing under Federal Water Project Recreation Act of 1965. Terminal facilities. There are 32 terminals on the Cumberland River (1 municipally owned and open for public use; 2 government owned facilities and 29 privately owned facilities). A total ot 21 terminals have railroad connections. Principal commodities handled are petroleum products, sand, gravel, coal and coke.

Terminal facilities. Flood Control 6. CUMBERLAND, KY. Location. At Cumberland, Ky., on Poor Fork of Cumberland River about 23 miles above its confluence with Clover Fork near Harlan, Ky. Existing project. Provides for local flood protection at Cumberland, Ky., by enlargement of existing channel to a bottom width of 70-80 feet, beginning about 500 feet above Whitesburg Road bridge, at mouth of Looney Creek, and extending downstream through town 6,830 feet to about 3,266 feet below junction of Cloverlick Creek. Lower reaches of channels of the two tributary creeks would be widened to a minimum of 36 feet for 1,300 and 1,015 feet, respectively. Incidental work includes riprapping of channel cut slopes and banks, new bridge construction and pier modifications, strengthening certain existing retaining walls and building foundations, and relocations involving telephone and power lines, sewers, and water mains. Works are designed to provide a reasonable degree of protection, resulting in prevention of about 95 percent of experienced average annual flood losses. Project was authorized by 1950 Flood Control Act. Estimated cost of new work (July 1969) is $511,800 for construction, Federal; and $240,000 for lands and damages, non-Federal. Local cooperation. Project was originally planned for partial protection by channel clearing and cleaning, and carried in an inactive status following performance of major portion of 23-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 work by local interests without expense to the Government. Recent study indicated economic feasibility of more extensive improvement as now contemplated, which can properly be done within discretionary authority of Chief of Engineers under existing project authorization. In accordance with this authorization, provisions of 1936 Flood Control Act as amended, apply; and local interests also shall prescribe and enforce regulations to prevent encroachment upon stream channel after construction of project. Assurances were furnished in form of a resolution of city council accompanying a letter of Mayor of Cumberland, Ky., dated September 7, 1962. Bond issue for financing city's share of project costs approved in regular general election November 5, 1963. City was furnished lands requirements and has developed preliminary ownership data. Further action has been deferred pending resolution of financial difficulty on part of city stemming from inability to sell the bond issue at prescribed interest rate. A referendum was held on 2 November 1971 by the City of Cumberland which posed the question, "Are you in favor of revoking the special voted flood control bond issue and using the money already collected for flood control purposes?" It was defeated. It is expected that the question will be restated for the vote of the people during the November 1972 election. Due to the circumstances, the city has ceased tax collections for flood control. The new referendum will be in the form of two questions: Whether to renew tax collections, and what disposition should be made of the money already collected? The outlook for construction is indefinite. Operations and results during fiscal year. Only minor administrative cost incurred. Condition at end of fiscal year. Contract plans and specifications completed; construction awaits fulfillment of right-of-way requirements. 7. EVARTS, KY. Location. Evarts, Harlan County, Ky., situated at the confluence of Yocum Creek with Clover Fork, Cumberland River, approximately 7 miles east of city of Harlan. Project. Provides for partial flood protection at Evarts through snagging and clearing and channel widening and deepening to uniform grade within 2-mile reach of Clover Fork, and snagging and clearing of tributary stream, Yocum Creek, for a distance of 1.8 miles above its mouth. Construction was authorized by Chief of Engineers under authority of Section 208, 1954 Flood Control Act, excavation of existing channel of Clover Fork to a minimum width of 50 feet would begin approximately 1,000 feet below the bridge at community of Kilday and extend some 10,950 feet upstream to a point 800 feet above the confluence of Bailey Creek. Incidental work involves removal of two abandoned bridge piers near lower limit of project. At the request of local interests, the plan of improvements was revised to delete the proposed work in Yocum Creek. Estimated cost of new work (July 1970) is $37,- 600 for construction, Federal; and $1,200 for lands and damages, non-Federal. Local cooperation. Provisions of Flood Control Act of June 22, 1936, as amended, pertaining to ordinary conditions of cooperation with respect to lands and damages, and maintenance of works of improvement apply, and local interests also shall prescribe and enforce regulations to prevent encroachment upon improved stream channel. Operations and results during fiscal year. Attempts to obtain status of required assurances have not been successful. Condition at end of fiscal year. Authorization withdrawn and funds revoked. 8. MARTINS FORK LAKE, KY. Location. Dam planned at mile 15.6 on Martins Fork of Clover Fork, Cumberland River, about 9 miles southeast of city of Harlan, with reservoir extending about 6 miles upstream within Harlan County, southeastern Kentucky. Existing project. Multiple-purpose improvement combining flood control with water quality control and recreation development adopted by 1965 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 244, 89th Cong.), in general accordance with recommendations. Dam will be concrete type, about 504 feet long and rising 97 feet above streambed. Outlet works provide for release of water from reservoir at varying levels. Drainage area above damsite is 55.7 square miles. At full pool level, spillway crest at elevation 1341 above mean sea level, reservoir will cover 578 acres and contain 21,120 acre-feet of storage capacity. Provision is made for 17,450 acre-feet of reservoir capacity between elevations 1341 and 1300 for control of floods in winter and spring season, and 14,360 acre-feet (El. 1341-1310) during summer and fall, in conjunction with which storage of 3,090 acre-feet would be available on a seasonal basis to meet streamflow requirements for water quality control and fish life below the dam. A minimum permanent pool of 3,670 acre-feet, 274 acres in extent, will thus be provided during potential flood seasons; and during late spring and summer when flood storage can be reduced, the lake is to be operated generally at a higher level (El. 1310) to maintain a larger surface area of 340 acres for recreation and to provide the required seasonal storage for releases of water during critical low-flow periods. Project will prevent major 23-6 NASHVILLE, TENN., DISTRICT portion of average annual flood losses at Harlan and result in significant stage reductions with related benefits along rural reaches and at other urban areas downstream. Estimated cost of project, including planned initial recreation development, is $11,200,000 (July 1972). Local cooperation. Federal Water Project Recreation Act of 1965 applies in regard to non-Federal participation in recreation development, in addition to which local interests are to provide certain safeguards to ensure functioning of reservoir as intended. At this time, assurances have not been received for any non-Federal participation in the recreational development on this project as required under P.L. 89-72. Therefore, initially recreation will not be developed to the full potential and only minimum facilities will be provided. Operations and results during fiscal year. Engineering and design continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning has advanced to point which will permit award of initial contract for Phase I road relocations early in FY 1973. 9. MIDDLESBORO, CUMBERLAND RIVER BASIN, KY. Location. At Middlesboro, Ky., on Yellow Creek, a tributary entering Cumberland River about 660 miles above its mouth. Existing project. A system of canals and levees around one side of town, arranged so as to divert most headwaters of Yellow Creek away from present channel through heart of city. Protection is thus afforded in large measure to life and property within business district and a large part of residential section. For project details, see page 1088 of Annual Report for 1962. Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Levees, canals, and appurtenances were maintained by hired labor. Flood damages prevented during the year amounted to $34,500. Condition at end of fiscal year. New work under existing project was completed in March 1945. Construction of canal and levee system, initiated in May 1938, was completed and improvement placed in operation in December 1939. Relocation work was completed in September 1940.

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 development 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 Wolf Creek Dam - Lake Cumberland 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 modified within discretionary authority of the Chief of Engineers, the project is under construction in primary interests of power production and recreation, at an estimated cost of $35,700,000 (July 1972).

CONSTRUCTION OF LOCKS AND DAMS, OHIO RIVER For report on this improvement see this heading under Ohio River. 2. GREEN AND BARREN RIVERS, KY. Location. Green River rises in Casey County, Ky., flows northwesterly 370 miles, and empties into Ohio River about 8 miles above Evansville, Ind. Barren River rises in Monroe County, Ky., flows northwesterly 130 miles, and empties into Green River one-half mile above lock 4 and 149.5 miles above mouth of Green River. Existing project. Six locks and dams on Green River and one on Barren River to give, with channel work in pools of dams, a navigable depth of 9 feet and width of 200 feet from Ohio River to mile 103 Green River, 3.2 miles upstream from Paradise, Ky.; a navigable depth of 5.5 feet from mile 103 Green River to Mammoth Cave, Ky., mile 197.8 Green River, and from mouth of Barren River mile 149.5 Green River, to Bowling Green, Ky., mile 30.1 Barren River. (See table 24-C for principal data concerning locks and dams.) Fluctuations in stage vary considerably at different locks. At lock 3, Green River, ordinary high stages are from 12 to 15 feet above pool level, and at lock 1, Barren River, from 7 to 10 feet above pool. Maximum stages of record are 34 feet above normal pool stage at lock 3, Green River, and 29 feet at lock 1, Barren River, obtained during floods of 1937 and 1913, respectively. (See table 24-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Considered adequate for existing commerce. (See table 24-D on terminal facilities.) Operations and results during fiscal year. Consisted of operation and maintenance of locks and dams, 1 to 3, Green River, maintenance of lock 4, Green River and lock and dam 1, Barren River, and removal of shoals, snags, and slides as required to maintain adequate channel for existing traffic between mouth of Green River and dam 4 at mile 149 Green River. Maintenance items consisting of additional work on reconstructed dam 1, Green River, remodeling and reconditioning floating mooring bitts at locks 1 and 2, Green River, and general repair of navigation guard cells at railroad bridge piers were completed. Condition at end of fiscal year. Locks and dams 1 and 2, Green River, and lock and dam 1, Barren River, were in good condition. Lock and dam 3 and lock 4, Green River were in poor condition. Dam 4, Green River, failed May 24, 1965, when 120 feet washed out. Breach later widened, and repairs are deferred pending completion of survey report for navigation on Green River. Pool of dam 1, Barren River, is maintained for local small boat use, but navigation through lock is suspended because of loss of lower pool. Operation of locks 5 and 6, Green River, was discontinued August 1951, as they were no longer used by river traffic. Controlling project depth in lower 103 miles of Green River is 9 feet; controlling depth from mile 103 to Bowling Green, Ky. is 5.5 feet. Under permit issued by District Engineer on August 20, 1963, private interests dredged channel of Green River to extend 9-foot depth to coal loading terminal at mile 105.7. Channel of Green River from mouth of Barren River at mile 149.5 to Mammoth Cave, Ky., at mile 197.8, is no longer maintained and is blocked by deactivated locks and dams 5 and 6. 3. KENTUCKY RIVER, KY. Location. Formed by confluence of its North and Middle Forks about 4 miles east of Beattyville in east central Kentucky, (South Fork joining the main stream at that place), flows northwesterly and empties into Ohio River at Carrollton, Ky., mile 545.8 below Pittsburgh, Pa. (See Geological Survey Chart for State of Kentucky; scale 1:500,000.) 24-2 I LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY DISTRICT Existing project. Provides for 14 locks and fixed dams to give, in connection with improvement of Ohio River, slack water navigation of 6 feet minimum depth from Ohio River to points on the three forks a short distance above Beattyville, Ky. Length of 6-foot-depth project on main system of Kentucky River is 258.6 miles to confluence of Middle and North Forks. Cost of completed new work is $4,176,749. River frequently rises to 35 feet high or more. Extreme height at lock 1 due to flood backwater from Ohio River is 60.3 feet, while extreme floods reach height of 47.6 feet at lock 4, and 35.5 feet at lock 14. At some intermediate locks extreme height of floods exceeds 40 feet. All flood heights refer to upper pool gages. Existing project was adopted by 1879 River and Harbor Act (H. Ex. Doc. 47, 45th Cong., 3d sess., and Annual Report, 1879, p. 1398). Operation and care of locks and dams were included in project July 1, 1935, under provisions of Permanent Appropriations Repeal Act of June 26, 1934. Licenses. Federal Power Commission license No. 539, to Kentucky Utilities Co., at dam 7, Kentucky River, Annual charge, $4,708; total collections through fiscal year 1972, $201,817. Terminal facilities. Facilities for bulk commodities and gasoline are at various points and considered adequate for existing traffic. List appears on page 1110, Annual Report for 1962. (See table 24-E on locks and dams, Kentucky River, Ky.) Operations and results during fiscal year. Regular funds: Operation and maintenance of the 14 locks and dams, and removal of shoals, snags, and slides as required to maintain an adequate channel for existing traffic between mouth of river and Beattyville, Ky. in pool of dam No. 14. Rehabilitation: Completed minor structural rehabilitation work, details in Annual Reports for 1963, 1964, and 1965. Maintenance items consisting of general repairs to the lock gates at lock 4 and to dams 8 and 9, and installation of sewage treatment facilities at locks and dams 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 11 were completed. Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project was completed in 1917. Work accomplished was rehabilitation of the five old State locks and dams and construction of new locks and dams 6 to 14 inclusive. Canalization system of Kentucky River is in poor condition. Repairs were made to deteriorated locks and dams as required to keep locks in operation and maintain pool levels above dams except in extreme dry weather, when some pools fall below normal levels. Channel work was performed as required to relieve critical hardship conditions for existing river traffic. Controlling navigable depth in section covered by existing project was 6 feet at end of fiscal year. 4. OHIO RIVER, OPEN-CHANNEL WORK For report on this improvement see this heading under Ohio River. 5. OTHER AUTHORIZED NAVIGATION PROJECTS See table 24-L at end of chapter. 6. NAVIGATION WORK UNDER SPECIAL AUTHORIZATION Navigation activities pursuant to section 107, Public Law 86-645 (preauthorization). Fiscal year costs were $4,812. The detailed project report for navigation on Green and Barren Rivers remained at 75 percent completion pending development of additional traffic and tonnage data. Detailed project report for small boat harbor at Cairo, Ill. has been revised for consideration of alternate site proposed by local interests and was advanced to 99 percent completion. Local interests have stated that required assurances of local cooperation cannot be provided. Flood Control 7. BARREN RIVER LAKE, KY. Location. Dam is on Barren River, 79.5 miles above its confluence with Green River and 10 miles northeast of Scottsville, Ky. At flood control pool, reservoir extends upstream about 40 miles in Barren and Allen Counties, Ky. Existing project. A reservoir for flood control and allied purposes. Dam is rolled earth and rock fill, 146 feet high and 3,970 feet long, with gate-controlled outlet works and uncontrolled open-cut spillway. Total storage capacity is 815,- 200 acre-feet (768,600 for flood control and 46,600 for water supply storage). For further details see page 1125 of Annual Report for 1962. Estimated cost of new work (1969) is $28,281,000 including $3,251,000 for construction of recreation facilities under the completed project program. Project was authorized by Flood Control Act of 1938. Local cooperation. None required by authorizing act.

Rises in northern Pennsylvania, flows northwestward into New York, thence generally southwestward to Pittsburgh, Pa., where it joins with Monongahela River to form the Ohio. It is 325 miles long. (See Geological Survey Charts for western Pennsylvania and southwestern New York.) Existing project. Provides for eight locks and dams to afford slack-water navigation from Pittsburgh, Pa., 72 miles to above East Brady, Pa. Controlling depth through canalized portion is 9 feet at normal pool level, and channel width varies from minimum of 200 feet to full width of river at mouth. Cost of new work for completed project is $18,157,860. (See tables 26-B and 26-C or authorizing legislation and locks of dams on Allegheny River, Pa.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. City of Pittsburgh constructed a modern wharf for river freight. There are numerous privately maintained terminals and docks, consisting of tipples, various types of hoists, chutes, and pipelines for use in loading and unloading coal, stone, sand, gravel, petroleum products, steel products, and other commodities. Transshipment of freight between river and railroads is handled at privately owned river- to-rail terminals. Existing private terminals are adequate for shipments and receipt in Pittsburgh District of type of commerce now in existence. Operations and results during fiscal year. Operation and maintenance, general: Locks were operated as required and necessary repairs made to structures to maintain them in serviceable condition at cost of $692,819; maintenance repairs at locks and dams were accomplished at cost of $116,818. Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project is complete, last lock was placed in service in 1938. All locks and dams are in good condition. Navigation channel has been widened at certain points and, in general, maintained to project depth, thus affording adequate depth for passage of commercial tows. 2. CONSTRUCTION OF LOCKS AND DAMS, OHIO RIVER See this heading under Ohio River portion. 3. LAKE ERIE-OHIO RIVER CANAL, OHIO AND PA. Location. In the Beaver-Mahoning and Grand River basins in western Pennsylvania and northeastern Ohio, between Lake Erie on the north and the Ohio River on the south. Existing project. Provides for a canal extending from the confluence of the Beaver and Ohio Rivers up the Beaver and the Mahoning Rivers by a series of seven locks and dams to a point near the north city limits of Warren, Ohio; thence by a land cut through the divide between the Ohio River and Lake Erie drainage basins; thence through a summit reservoir formed by a dam across the Grand River near Harpersfield, Ohio; thence to Lake Erie. The total length of the canal would be about 120 miles. The combined lift of the south slope locks would be 159 feet and that of the north slope locks, 271 feet. Dual locks with usable dimensions of 84 feet by 720 feet would be provided. A proposed channel with a minimum depth of 12 feet and 15 feet over lock sills and in restricted reaches will be provided. Minimum bottom width of channel will be 300 feet except in reaches of Youngstown and Warren, Ohio, where developments along the river limit the width to 200 feet and 250 feet, respectively. Operation and maintenance of the locks and dams will be a Federal responsibility. Project was authorized by 1935 River and Harbor Act. The Appropriation Committees directed in their reports in connection with the 1968 Appropriation Bill that further planning should exclude navigation purposes and that planning work should include a reanalysis of reservoir's design and operation to make maximum provision for water supply storage, municipal and industrial water, water quality control, and other water resource purposes in absence of any requirements for navigation purposes. Estimated initial Federal cost for new work (1970) $1,- 070,000,000 (includes $9,545,000 reimbursable by non-Federal interests; estimated non-Federal cost is $67,700,000 (excludes required reimbursement.) Local cooperation. Local interests are required to provide without cost to the United States all lands, easements, and rights-of-way required for construction and subsequent maintenance of the navigation features of the project, except in the Grand River Reservoir and the divide cut, and for aids to navigation upon request of the Chief of Engineers, including suitable areas determined by the Chief of Engineers to be required in the general public interest for initial and subsequent disposal of spoil, and also necessary retaining dikes, bulkheads, and embankments therefor or the costs of such retaining works; hold and save the United States free from damages due to the construction, operation, and maintenance of the navigation features; bear a proportionate share of the cost of bridge alterations over the existing channels of the Beaver, Mahoning and Grand 26-2 PITTSBURGH, PA., DISTRICT Rivers in accordance with principles of the Truman- Hobbs Act, as amended; assume all obligations of owning, including maintaining, operating, and replacing all railway and highway bridges altered or constructed as part of the multi- purpose project, including any additional cost of maintenance or operation which may be required because of the project; provide and maintain terminal and transfer facilities along the waterway and at the Lake Erie terminus adequate to handle the commerce which will use the waterway, with depths in the berthing areas and local access channels serving the navigation channel commensurate with the depths provided in related project areas, with terminal facilities at Lake Erie open to all on equal terms; accomplish all utility relocations and alterations from the mouth of the Beaver River to the beginning of the divide cut north of Warren, Ohio and from the northern dam of the Grand River Reservoir to the terminus at Lake Erie; not withdraw water for consumptive use, nor divert water around the locks, from the water supply provided by the project works; in accordance with the Federal Water Project Recreation Act administer project land and water areas for recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement; pay, contribute in kind, or repay (which may be through user fees) with interest one-half of the separable costs allocated to recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement, and bear all costs of operation, maintenance, and replacement of recreation and fish and wildlife lands and facilities the estimated cost of which is $9,545,000. Local political subdivisions in the States of Ohio and Pennsylvania have not been requested to submit assurances of local cooperation. However, State of Pennsylvania will not provide any of the local cooperation required for project. State of Ohio made no commitment pending further study of project. Coordination has been effected with various agencies relative to development of data pertinent to revised project purposes. Terminal facilities. None in the lower Beaver River area. The Lake Erie terminus remains to be determined. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: None. Condition at end of fiscal year. Pursuant to Congressional directive all work incident to navigation elements of the project has been terminated, thereby effectively deactivating the major element of the project. Funds provided for in the Public Works Appropriation Act of 1968 to continue planning of the Grand River Reservoir element of the original canal plan solely for the purpose of flood control, water supply, water quality, recreation and fish and wildlife have been expended. The completion of the reanalysis study of the Grand River Reservoir's design and operation has not been attainable. The Chief of Engineers approved the transfer of this project from the "active" to the "inactive" listing of civil works projects. 4. MONONGAHELA RIVER, PA. AND W. VA. Location. Formed by junction of Tygart and West Fork Rivers about 1 mile south of Fairmont, W. Va., and flows northerly for 128.7 miles to its junction with Allegheny River, forming Ohio River at Pittsburgh, Pa. (See Geological Survey Charts for southwestern Pennsylvania and northern West Virginia.) Previous project. For details see Annual Report for 1963, page 1070. Existing project. Provides for improvement of river by 9 locks and dams to afford slack-water navigation for its entire length from Pittsburgh to above Fairmont, W. Va. Original locks and dams 7, 8 and 9 were replaced by new locks and dam 7 and 8 in 1925. Increased traffic necessitated enlargement and improvement of locks and dams 1 to 6 between Pittsburgh and Rices Landing, Pa., by building two parallel chambers and fixed concrete dams during 1905 to 1932. Locks and dam 1 were eliminated in 1938 by raising Emsworth Dam, Ohio River. Reconstruction of lock 2 was completed in 1953 to provide two modern navigation chambers. Construction of Maxwell locks and dam and the reconstruction of dam 4 have allowed for removal of obsolete locks and dams 5 and 6. Small and antiquated original locks and dams 10 to 15, inclusive, have been replaced by three modern structures. Morgantown lock and dam, initial step in replacement program, was completed in 1950 replacing locks and dams 10 and 11. Hildebrand lock and dam, next upstream, was completed in 1959 replacing locks and dams 12 and 13. Raising crest of dam 8 was also completed in 1959 as part of upper river improvement and eliminates restricted depth in upper reach of pool. Opekiska lock and dam, the final step in the replacement program, was completed in 1967 replacing locks and dams 14 and 15. Completion of this final link in upper river replacement program provides for entire river length of minimum channel depth of 9 feet, varying in width from a minimum of 250 feet to practically full width at mouth. Estimated cost for new work (1972), exclusive of amounts expended on previous projects is $122,500,000. (See tables 26-B, 26-D, and 26-E for authorizing legislation and 26-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 locks and dams on Monongahela River, Pa. and W. Va., and total costs of existing project to end of fiscal year.) Local cooperation. None required. Terminal facilities. City of Pittsburgh constructed a modern wharf for freight. Boat landings are maintained by some municipalities along the river. A large number of tipples at mines and various types of hoists at manufacturing plants and sand and gravel supply companies are maintained for private use in loading and unloading coal, coke, billets, steel products, sand, gravel, and other commodities. These terminals and docks are not available for general commerce. A number of docks and pipelines are also privately maintained for petroleum and acid products. Marine ways are maintained by some of the larger industries. There are also several terminals for rail-to-river and river-to-rail transfer. Facilities considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Maxwell locks and dam: Administrative work and settlements on outstanding judgments on land acquired by condemnation continued at cost of $104,771. Total cost for Maxwell locks and dam was $105,222. Reconstruction of dam 4: Costs incurred in connection with concluding land acquisition were $5,897. Total cost for reconstruction of dam 4 was $6,109. Opekiska lock and dam: Costs incurred in connection with concluding land acquisition were $1,767. Total cost for Opekiska lock and dam was $2,083. Operation and maintenance, general: Locks were operated as required and necessary repairs were made to structures to maintain them in a serviceable condition at cost of $1,714,377; maintenance repairs at locks and dams, including maintenance dredging in pool 3 and in the Hildebrand pool, cost $604,703. Study for the replacement of locks and dams for lower reach of river was suspended. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is complete except for concluding actions relative to outstanding judgments in connection with acquisition of land for the reconstruction of dam 4, construction of Maxwell locks and dam and Opekiska lock and dam. A controlling depth of 9 feet is maintained for entire length of river, varying in width from a minimum of 250 feet to full width of river at mouth. 5.

At head of Chequamegon Bay, on south shore of Lake Superior, about 65 miles east of Duluth, Minn. (See Lake Survey Chart 964.) Existing project. A west channel 20 and 21 feet deep and an east basin 25 and 27 feet deep, both extending lakeward from 75 feet outside harborline, all protected by an 8,000-foot breakwater. For additional details see page 1008 of Annual Report for 1965. (See table 27-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. City of Ashland owns 4,150 feet of waterfront for future public needs. Wharves for handling coal, ore, limestone, logs, and pulpwood are served by railroads. Facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Work continued on engineering for contained dike disposal at a cost of $27,056, and a letter report was approved on May 4, 1972. Condition surveys were made at a cost of $12,842. Repairs were made to the breakwaters by the Derrickbarge Coleman at a cost of $74,- 482, and 1,725 tons of rock were placed. All work was by hired labor. Condition at end of fiscal year. Work authorized prior to 1960 act was completed in 1950. Work authorized by 1960 act was completed in November 1962. Breakwater is in generally good condition, except for settled portions. At end of fiscal year, controlling depths were 16 feet in 1,800-foot west portion of West Channel, and authorized depths in remainder of project. 2. BAYFIELD HARBOR, WIS. Location. On the west channel leading to Chequamegon Bay, on the south shore of Lake Superior at Bayfield, Wis., and is 16 miles north of Ashland, Wis. (See Lake Survey Chart 961.) Existing project. Provides for a small-boat harbor by extending city pier L about 103 feet and the city breakwater pier approximately 139 feet; constructing parapets about 2 feet in height on the outside walls of the city pier L, a portion of the city pier, and the city breakwater pier; and dredging the municipal harbor basin, which is protected by the above piers and breakwaters, 350 feet wide by 800 feet long to a depth of 10 feet. (For additional details see page 1233 of Annual Report for 1961.) Existing project was authorized by the River and Harbor Act approved May 17, 1950 (H. Doc. 260, 81st Cong., 1st sess., contains the latest published map). Local cooperation Fully complied with. Local interests have furnished easements on 0.59 acre of land. Terminal facilities. Within and adjacent to the project area there are eight privately owned wharves, one boat repair yard pier, two piers where a charge is made for berthing space, and the city-owned pier L and breakwater which provide berthing space. The facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Work was initiated by hired labor on engineering for a breakwater design deficiency at a cost of $3,360. Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project was completed in August 1960 and project depths are available. A design deficiency is recognized since the present breakwater does not prevent waves caused by northeast winds from entering the harbor and reaching the marina. Unsafe harbor conditions result during storms. Presently, it appears that some type of breakwater within the harbor area would effectively reduce wave action, and studies are in progress. 27-2 ST. PAUL, MINN., DISTRICT 3. BIG BAY HARBOR, MICH. Location. On south shore of Lake Superior 33 miles northwesterly from Marquette, Mich., and 38 miles easterly from Portage entry to Keweenaw Waterway. (See Lake Survey Chart 94.) Existing project. Provides for two converging piers extending from shore, an entrance channel between piers and a rectangular harbor basin. Project depths are 12 feet in entrance channel and 10 feet in harbor basin. For details see page 1009 of Annual Report for 1965 and page 1261 of Annual Report for 1962. Existing project was authorized by 1945 River and Harbor Act (H. Doc. 446, 78th Cong., 2d sess., contains latest published map). Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. A State-owned launching ramp and dock for small craft. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Condition surveys were performed at cost of $645. Cranebarge No. 20 removed 3,- 750 cubic yards of material to restore project depths at a cost of $20,286 and performed repairs to the breakwater at a cost of $7,302. A reconnaissance report on shoreline erosion was completed at a cost of $2,940. Administrative costs for the entire project were $2,154. All work was by hired labor. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project was completed in June 1961 except for protection at inner end of east breakwater, completed in November 1961. A contract for repair of breakwater, damaged by storms, was completed in August 1969. Controlling depths at end of fiscal year were about 8 feet in lake approach, 10 feet in entrance channel and 10 feet in basin. A reconnaissance report was completed in July 1971 concerning erosion of the beach adjacent to the harbor. A detailed project report will be prepared to develop an acceptable plan for mitigation measures. 4. BLACK RIVER HARBOR, MICH. Location. At mouth of Black River on south shore of Lake Superior 39 miles westerly from Ontonagon, Mich., and 47 miles easterly from Ashland, Wis. (See Lake Survey Chart 95.) Existing project. Two converging breakwaters, an entrance channel between breakwaters, an inner channel, and an irregular harbor basin. For additional details see page 1092 of Annual Report for 1966.

General Design Memorandum and Supplements 1 and 2 are completed. Supplement No. 2 provides for construction of local protective works in four stages. Detailed designs and plans and specifications are complete for stage 1 construction at North Mankato, and construction by contract is under way. Detailed planning for remaining features is in progress. 37. MINOT, N. DAK. Location. In Ward County in northwestern North Dakota on the Souris River, extending from Burlington through Minot to the village of Logan. The river meanders through Minot, flowing generally from west to east and divides the community into two parts. (For general location, see Geological Survey map of North Dakota.) Existing project. Project provides for channel improvement within a 37.0-mile reach of the Souris River extending from Burlington to Logan. The authorized plan for channel improvement includes 18.4 miles of snagging and clearing with nine cutoffs to the downstream end of Minot (27th Street Bridge), 7.3 miles of continuous channel enlargement with five cutoffs below 27th Street, and 2.4 miles of snagging and clearing with three cutoffs downstream to Logan. The cutoffs would shorten the existing channel about 8.9 miles within the improved reach. Low flanking levees totaling about 8,700 feet in length would be required along four reaches above and through Minot. Field experience gathered during the successful flood fight conducted during the flood of May 1970 indicated that several design features are inadequate. A major inadequacy is in the interior drainage feature. The experienced seepage into low areas near the channel together with snowmelt and rainfall runoff indicated that four permanent pumping stations plus storm drain outfall closures would be necessary. Flood experience also indicated that diversion structures and additional bank protection would be required, and additional channel improvements plus modification of channel cutoffs and low levees would be required in selected reaches. Channel capacity has been increased from 3,800 to 5,000 cubic feet per second. Estimated Federal cost (1972) for new work is $13,600,000. Project was authorized in 1970 under section 201 of the Flood Control Act of 1965 (H. Doc. 91-321, 91st Cong., 1st sess., contains latest published map). Resolutions were adopted by the Public Works Committees of the Senate on June 25, 1970 and the House on July 14, 1970. Local cooperation. See Annual Report for 1971 for requirements. The Minot City Council on April 5, 1971 and the Ward County Commissioners on May 19, 1971 provided necessary subassurances of local cooperation to the Ward County Management Board.

See page 833 of Annual Report for 1968 for completed upstream improvements authorized by the Flood Control Act of 1958 providing for a continuous flood barrier about 6.1 miles long with related pumping and interior drainage facilities. Federal costs amounted to $2,147,131 of which $111,500 was expended for the portion deferred for restudy and $17,316 was contributed by local interests. Improvement authorized in 1971 under Section 201 of the Flood Control Act of 1965 (H. Doc. 152, 92d Cong., 1st sess., contains latest published map) provides for levee and floodwall protection with necessary interior drainage works for the riverfront and the Lake Winona closure reaches, as well as a sound floodplain management program to prevent unwise development of the area bordered by U.S. Highway 61 and Burns Valley and Pleasant Valley Creeks. The plan would also provide the downstream flood barrier needed to prevent Mississippi River backup flows from entering Lake Winona and inundating the area now only partially protected by the completed segment of the project authorized by the 1958 Flood Control Act. The selected plan would also provide control of Burns Valley Creek by means of channel improvement, raising and extending the existing levee system, a drop structure, an erosion control structure, and a sewer line modification. Earth levees, averaging 10 feet in height and totaling approximately 3.8 miles in length, comprise about 85 percent of the proposed flood barrier. Concrete floodwalls, also averaging about 10 feet in height, total about 3,400 feet in length. Estimated Federal cost (1972) for new work is $12,300,000 and $234,- 000 is to be contributed by local interests.

For improvements authorized in 1971 local interests are required to provide without cost to the United States all lands, easements, and rights-of-way, including ponding areas necessary for the construction of the project; hold and save the United States free from damages due to the construction works; maintain and operate the project (including landscaping measures) after completion, in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Army; provide without cost to the Jnited States all relocations of buildings, utilities, highway bridges, roads, sewers, and any special facilities resulting in a local betterment, except as otherwise warranted for special reasons; provide a cash contribution of 1.9 percent of the actual cost of Federal construction for special land development benefits in reach 3, to be paid in a lump sum prior to start of construction, or in installments prior to start of pertinent work items in accordance with work schedules as required by the Chief of Engineers; and prevent any encroachment on constructed works and ponding areas that would interfere with the proper functioning of the project and, if ponding areas are impaired, provide promptly and without cost to the United States substitute storage areas or equivalent pumping capacity. A resolution was passed and approved on February 2, 1970 by the Winona City Council indicating support for the plan of improvement and the willingness and ability of the city to meet the requirements of local cooperation when requested. Local interests have not been requested to furnish assurances of local cooperation. Operations and results during fiscal year. None. Condition at end of fiscal year. The upstream improvement except for a portion of the project raising and extending the existing levee downstream from the Lake Winona outlet was completed in August 1967. At the request of local interests, the uncompleted portion of the project authorized in 1958 was not constructed in order that the scope of the project could be reconsidered to allow for the protection of additional lands needed by the city for industrial expansion. This work was deferred for restudy and now has been deauthorized by approval and authorization in 1971 of additional protection for Winona. Preconstruction planning for the improvement authorized in 1971 has not been started. No funds have been appropriated. Total costs for the entire project were $2,- 164,447 of which $2,147,131 was from Federal funds and $17,316 contributed funds, all for new work. 47. ZUMBRO RIVER, MINN. Location.

Existing project. Provides for construction of about 15,900 feet of continuous channel improvement including two channel cutoffs, the construction of a system of continuous set-back levees, totaling about 23,500 feet, paralleling both banks of the river along the channel enlargement reach, and slope protection of riverbank areas susceptible to bank erosion, all to alleviate damages from flooding. Estimated cost 27-21 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 (1972) to the United States for new work is $1,- 250,000. Project was authorized by 1965 Flood Control Act. (H. Doc. 246, 88th Cong., 2d sess., contains latest published map.) Local cooperation. See page 827 of Annual Report for 1969 for requirements. Formal request for assurances was made by letter dated March 15, 1971 to the Board of County Commissioners, County of Wabasha. The resolution of assurances was accepted by the District Engineer on January 12, 1972. Local interests involved no longer wish the project to provide for a roadway over the top of the levees. This obviates the need for a cash contribution of 1.5 percent of the actual cost of construction for widening levees to provide for a roadway and noted in the project document local cooperation requirements. The project plan now includes a relocation of the roadway along the landside of the north levee at non-Federal cost. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Preconstruction planning by hired labor was completed at a cost of $25,885. A contract for construction of channel improvement was awarded in June 1972 but no work was done.

FLOOD CONTROL 6. AMES LAKE, IOWA Location. Site is in Story County, Iowa. Dam will be at mile 220.6 on Skunk River, and about 5 river miles upstream from city of Ames, Iowa. Existing project. Dam will consist of an earth embankment about 85 feet high and about 1,450 feet long. Outlet works will consist of 12-foot diameter tunnel, 500 feet in length with gate tower on upstream end, terminating in a stilling basin. The principal spillway will be located in a saddle in left abutment. Overflow section will consist of a single tainter gate mounted on a low ogee crest. An emergency spillway will be provided in the right abutment. At full flood pool elevation 976, the lake will be about 9 miles long and will extend about 13 river miles upstream from the dam. At conservation pool elevation 950, the lake will be about 6 miles long and will extend about 8 river miles upstream from the dam. Project will be operated for flood control, water quality control, recreation, and fish and wildlife enhancement. Total estimated Federal cost is $20,300,000, including $305,000 future non-Federal reimbursement, exclusive of interest, for recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement. See table 28-C for authorizing legislation. Interstate Highway 35 is now under construction through State of Iowa. As originally planned, highway would have traversed part of Skunk River Valley to be occupied by the reservoir. Realignment of highway location to accommodate future reservoir was undertaken at an additional estimated cost of $1,100,000 under a tripartite agreement among Bureau of Public Roads, Iowa State Highway Commission, and the Corps. Under this agreement, the Highway Commission planned and constructed the new perimeter highway, the Bureau approved plans, construction, and billings incident thereto, and the Corps disbursed funds on the basis of State billings approved by the Bureau.

On California coast, 65 miles northwest of Los Angeles Harbor and 345 miles south of San Francisco. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 5007 and 5202.) Existing project. A harbor for light-draft vessels, on coast of southern California about a mile northwest of existing harbor of Port Hueneme, and beach erosion control works. Ventura County, sponsor of project, requested modification of document plan of harbor improvement and submitted a modified plan that was approved and adopted by Chief of Engineers in 1957. The harbor, which provides facilities for berthing and servicing about 640 small craft and commercial fishing boats, includes an entrance channel 20 feet deep, 300 feet wide, and 1,650 feet long-protected by two parallel entrance jetties 1,270 and 1,300 feet long; an entrance basin 20 feet deep, 300 to 750 feet wide, and 1,750 feet long; an inner basin 10 feet deep, 900 to 1,400 feet wide, and 1,200 to 2,000 feet long; and a side basin 10 feet deep, 100 to 250 feet wide, and 900 feet long. About 6,238,000 cubic yards of dredged material from entrance channel, interior basins, and sand trap were deposited in feeder-beach area to restore downcoast shoreline. A 2,300-foot-long offshore breakwater was placed to form a sand trap in conjunction with jetties. About 2,000,000 cubic yards of material are to be dredged each biennium from sand trap formed by jetties and breakwater. This material will be deposited along the downcoast shoreline as long as the area remains under Federal ownership or use and requires beach erosion control. Plan of reference is mean lower low water. Range between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 5.4 feet. Extreme range is about 8.5 feet. Federal first cost of new work on project as modified was $5,123,345 (excluding $1,361,668 Navy funds and cost to Coast Guard for installation of aids to navigation). Map of modified plan is in "Design Memorandum No. 1, General Design for Harbor and Shore Protection Works Near Port Hueneme, California," prepared by Los Angeles District in May 1957.

Approved estimated cost of new work (1972) is $10,266,000 ($10,049,000 Federal cost (excludes Coast Guard cost) and $217,000 contributed by local interests). Major rehabilitation of outer breakwater cost $525,000. (See table 34-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with for completed modifications and acts of 1927, 1937, and 1945. The cost to the local sponsor of complying with the requirements of local cooperation for construction of the 1965 Modification is $190,000 (1972 price levels). This consists of dredging berthing areas. Local interests are required to provide and maintain, without cost to the United States, a 50-foot wide berthing area or strip adjacent to the Oil Terminals Company facilities at depths commensurate with those provided in the basin by the United States; provide, without cost to the United States, all lands, easements and rights-of-way required for construction and subsequent maintenance of the project, and for construction and maintenance of aids to navigation upon the request of the Chief of Engineers; hold and save the United States free from property damage to wharves, buildings and pipelines that may result from the construction and maintenance of the project; establish regulations concerning discharge of pollutants in the waters of the harbor by users thereof, which regulation shall be in accordance with applicable laws or regulations of Federal, State, and local authorities responsible for pollution prevention and control. Board of Commissioners of Crescent City Harbor District, by Resolutions No. 209, March 2, 1965; No. 71-9, June 15, 1971; and No. 72-10, May 16, 1972; furnished assurances of willingness and ability to comply. Resolution No. 72-10 includes consideration of Section 221 of P.L. 91-611 (1970 F. C. Act). However, dredging has been deferred, subject to local interests evaluation of harbor conditions after completion of the breakwater. Terminal facilities. Three piers, one of which is publicly owned and from which boats are fueled; one oil terminal; and a private mooring for barges discharging petroleum products to pipelines on inner breakwater. Facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preconstruction planning of breakwater portion for work authorized by 1965 River and Harbor Act was completed. Contract for work is scheduled for award in August 1972. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is about 73 percent complete. Work remaining is 400-foot extension to inner breakwater and T-shaped inner harbor basin 20 feet deep authorized by 1965 River and Harbor Act. Planning for this modification is complete. Dredging portion has been deferred. The 3,000-foot outer breakwater was completed in 1930, sand barrier in 1939, inner breakwater in 1946, removal of pinnacle rock in 1951, and outer breakwater extension in 1957. Major rehabilitation of outer breakwater was completed in October 1964. 2. HUMBOLDT HARBOR AND BAY, CALIF. Location. Humboldt Bay is a landlocked harbor on coast of California, 225 miles north of San Francisco Bay and 70 miles south of Crescent City Harbor. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 5832.)

(See table 34-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with for work performed. Estimated costs for all requirements of local cooperation for work performed, including required non-Federal contributions, were $1 million (prices as of dates of compliance). Local interests must furnish lands, easements, rights-of-way, and suitable spoil-disposal areas for maintenance dredging. Act of August 13, 1968 requires local 34-2 SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF., DISTRICT interests provide and maintain adequate wharf and terminal facilities in the North Bay, Eureka and Samoa Channels, open to all on equal and reasonable terms for the storage, handling, and shipment of lumber and general commerce; provide and maintain, in berthing areas and local access channels serving terminals and wharves, depths commensurate with depths provided in related project channels; provide lands required for construction and subsequent maintenance of the project and for aids to navigation upon request of the Chief of Engineers; including suitable areas determined by the Chief of Engineers to be required in the general public interest for disposal of spoil, and also necessary retaining dikes, bulkheads, and embankments therefor or the costs of such retaining works; hold and save the United States free from all claims for damages to wharves, piers, and other marine and submarine structures due to initial dredging work and subsequent maintenance dredging; and accomplish at local expense all alterations as may be required to sewer, water supply, drainage, cableways, and other utility facilities. Board of Supervisors of Humboldt County, by Resolution No. 66-85, July 26, 1966, furnished assurances of willingness and ability to comply. Terminal facilities. There are 37 wharves and piers, 3 of which are publicly owned; 4 oil terminals; 1 privately owned submarine pipeline for petroleum products; 2 boat-building and repair plants; 1 boat-icing plant; 6 small boat fueling stations; 2 small yacht and fishboat basins, 1 of which is publicly owned; and numerous log booms and small landings; exclusive of facilities owned by the United States. Facilities considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Engineering and design by hired labor, including dredging surveys of project channels, and U.S. hopper dredges Harding and Pacific removed 405,500 cubic yards of shoaled material from the bar and entrance channel, 23,000 cubic yards from North Bay Channel, 50,000 cubic yards from Fields Landing and turning basin, cost $313,390. Engineering and design by hired labor and under continuing contract 51,298 tons of stone, 2,492 cubic yards of concrete and 1,862 dolasses were placed in south jetties, cost $6,298,725. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is about 53 percent complete. Work remaining is deepening channels to 35 feet, widenings, and construction of North Bay anchorage area as authorized by 1968 River and Harbor Act. North jetty was completed in 1925; south jetty in 1927; Arcata Channel in 1931; entrance channel, 30 feet deep and 50 feet wide, in 1935; Fields Landing Channel and turning basin and Eureka and Samoa Channels, to 26 feet deep, in 1939; entrance channel to 40 feet deep, and Eureka, Samoa, and North Bay Channels to 30 feet deep in 1954.

NOYO RIVER AND HARBOR, CALIF. Location. Noyo Harbor is a cove on California coast about 87 miles south of Humboldt Bay and 135 miles northwest of San Francisco. Noyo River rises in Coast Range Mountains, flows westerly, and empties into Noyo Harbor. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 5703.) Previous projects. For details see page 1680, Annual Report for 1929, and page 1772, Annual Report for 1930. Existing project. Provides for two entrance jetties; an entrance channel into Noyo River 10 feet deep and 100 feet wide and channel in river 10 feet deep and 150 feet wide extending about 0.6 mile above mouth, thence connecting channel about 400 feet long to mooring basin of about 8.5 acres 10 feet deep on south bank of river. Cost of new work construction completed in 1931 was $184,000, exclusive of amounts expended on previous projects. Minor rehabilitation of jetties completed in 1961 cost $222,810 exclusive of $1,700 contributed funds. A 400-foot channel extension, mooring basin and connecting channel were constructed by Noyo Harbor District in 1968. Breakwater portion of project is considered inactive. Cost of this portion, last revised in 1963, was estimated to be $13,830,000 Federal cost and $340,- 000 to be contributed by local interests. (See table 34-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Act of July 3, 1930, requires local interests provide spoil-disposal areas, royaltyfree stone for construction and repair of jetties, and rights-of-way for transporting stone to jetties. These requirements fully complied with for work performed. Expenditures by local interests in meeting requirements, in constructing privately owned shore-side harbor facilities, and in constructing the mooring basin are estimated to be in excess of $3 million. Noyo Harbor District furnished assurances of local cooperation required by Act of July 14, 1960, but subsequently obtained an Economic Development Administration grant and State of California loan for local construction of the authorized mooring basin. A 400-foot extension of the river channel to the mooring basin will be Federally maintained. The mooring basin will be maintained by Noyo Harbor District. Terminal facilities. None in harbor proper. In river above harbor there are two piers and nine fish-receiving wharves; three boat fueling wharves; 34-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 two boat building and repair plants; one boat icing plant; three marine ways; and a number of privately owned mooring facilities. These facilities, together with those provided in the new mooring basin are adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Advance engineering and design classification of breakwaters to inactive status. Maintenance: Engineering and design including dredging survey by hired labor and removal of shoaled material from project was initiated by contract June 23, 1972. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is complete except for construction of breakwaters in Noyo Harbor which is considered inactive. Mooring basin and connecting channel in river, constructed by local interests, was completed in October 1968. Jetties, rock removal and dredging entrance and river channels completed in 1931. Minor rehabilitation of jetties and north wall completed in September 1961. Total cost of existing project to end of fiscal year was $1,907,763, of which $450,- 987 was for new work, $1,232,266 for maintenance, and $224,510 for minor rehabilitation of jetties and north wall ($222,810 regular funds and $1,700 contributed funds). 4. OAKLAND HARBOR, CALIF. Location. On eastern side of San Francisco Bay, opposite city of San Francisco. Inner harbor is between cities of Oakland and Alameda. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 5535.) Previous projects. For details see page 1979 of Annual Report for 1915, page 1755 of Annual Report for 1921, and page 1674 of Annual Report for 1938. Existing project. Provides entrance channel to Oakland Outer Harbor, 35 feet deep from deep water in San Francisco Bay and 800 feet wide across shoal southeast of Yerba Buena Island, narrowing to 600 feet at Oakland Mole; thence a channel and turning basin 35 feet deep and from 600 to 950 feet wide in outer harbor to Army base. Project also provides entrance channel to Oakland Inner Harbor, 35 feet deep and 800 feet wide at bayward end, narrowing to 600 feet wide at ends of Oakland jetties; a channel from ends of jetties 35 feet deep and 600 feet wide to west end of Government Island, with additional widening to within 75 feet of pierhead line in front of Grove and Market Street (formerly municipal) piers and along south side of channel from Harrison Street eastward to harbor-line point 119 in Brooklyn Basin; a channel 35 feet deep and 500 feet wide through Brooklyn Basin; for dredging 35 feet deep a triangular area about 2,700 feet long and maximum width of 300 feet at western end of Brooklyn Basin; a channel along north side of Brooklyn Basin 35 feet deep and 300 feet wide for 1,300 feet, thence 25 feet deep to a turning basin at east end of Brooklyn Basin 35 feet deep, 500 feet wide, and 1,200 feet long; a channel in tidal canal 35 feet deep and 275 feet wide from Brooklyn Basin to Park Street, thence 18 feet deep to San Leandro Bay; a total channel length of 8.5 miles from San Francisco Bay to San Leandro Bay. Project also includes parallel rubblemound jetties at entrance to inner harbor, north jetty 9,500 feet long and south jetty 12,000 feet long; three highwa bridges across tidal canal, two of which (at Par Street and High Street) have been replaced by local interests. Railroad and highway bridges at Fruitvale Avenue are maintained and operated by the United States. Approved estimated cost for new work (1972), exclusive of amounts expended on previous projects, is $10,238,000 of which $9,- 652,000 is Federal cost and $616,000 to be contributed by local interests. Deepening tidal canal from 18 to 25 feet and Federal participation in reconstruction of Fruitvale Avenue Highway Bridge to be restudied and are excluded from foregoing cost estimate. (See table 34-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Act of January 21, 1927, requires that future maintenance by the United States of north channel in Brooklyn Basin be contingent upon removal by local interests of all sewers emptying therein, or, in lieu of such removal, upon contribution of one-half the cost of maintenance. This requirement has not been fulfilled. In compliance with a 1910 license issued by Secretary of War pursuant to provisions of act of June 25, 1910, local interests replaced bridges at Park Street and High Street and are operating and maintaining them. They operated and maintained a combined highway and railroad bridge at Fruitvale Avenue until 1942 when California Court of Appeals ruled that it was illegal for County of Alameda to use appropriated funds for sole benefit of a private corporation. Southern Pacific Railroad Co. operated trains over combined bridge until June 1951 when a separate railroad bridge, constructed for its use by the Federal Government, was placed in operation. (Railroad and highway bridges at Fruitvale Ave. are maintained and operated by the United States.) All other requirements have been fully complied with. Only fragmentary records are available of costs to local interests in meeting requirements of local cooperation. Recorded expenditures are in excess of $11 million. Act of October 23, 1962, requires that local interests provide lands and rights-of-way for construction and maintenance; hold the United States free from damages to wharves, piers, tubes, and other marine and submarine structures due to intital dredging and future maintenance; alter sewer, water supply, 34-4 SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF., DISTRICT drainage, and other utility facilities; provide and maintain adequate public terminal and transfer facilities, open to all equally; deepen and maintain slips and berths; and if required furnish spoil-disposal areas including necessary dikes, bulkheads and embankments for initial dredging and future maintenance. State of California, on September 12, 1961, furnished assurances that it will hold the United States free from liability for damages to Posey and Webster Street Tubes due to initial dredging and subsequent maintenance. By Resoluion adopted 3 March 1971, the Board of Port Commissioners, City of Oakland indicated a willingness to meet all requirements applicable to the construction of Phase I (Mile 0.4) to western part Brooklyn Basin (Mile 5.9). Agreements required by Section 221 of P.L. 91-611 (1970 F. C. Act) will be requested. Terminal facilities. See Port Series No. 31, "The Ports of Oakland, Alameda, and Richmond, and Ports on San Pablo Bay, Carquinez Strait, and Mare Island Strait," revised 1962. Facilities will be adequate for existing commerce upon completion of 7th Street Terminal under contruction to provide an additional nine deep-water berths. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Advance engineering and design for deepening inner harbor channels continued by hired labor. Maintenance: U.S. hopper dredge Biddle removed 364,000 cubic yards of shoaled material from outer harbor, cost $172,264. Condition and operation studies on inner and outer harbors, cost $21,359; operation and maintenance Fruitvale Avenue highway and bridges by hired labor, cost $77,268; miscellaneous minor rehabilitation of Fruitvale Avenue highway and roadroad bridges and engineering and design studies of highway bridge replacement, cost $1,787,429. Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project is about 33 percent complete. Work remaining is deepening inner harbor channels to 35 feet and portion being restudied. Advance engineering and design for channel deepening is about 75 percent compelte. Jetties were completed in 1894. Dredging existing project channels was carried on from 1910 to 1931 when 30-foot depth was attained. The 35-foot depth in channel to outer harbor was attained in 1942 with military funds. Cost of existing project to end of fiscal year was $15,457,660, of which $2,996,801 was for new work ($2,913,254 regular funds and $83,547 contributed funds), and $12,460,859 regular funds for maintenance. 5. PETALUMA RIVER, CALIF. Location. Rises in hills north of Petaluma, flows southeasterly about 20 miles, and empties into northwest side of San Pablo Bay about 22 miles from San Francisco. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 5533.) Previous projects. For details, see page 1982 of Annual Report for 1915, page 1665 of Annual Report for 1929, and page 1684 of Annual Report for 1938. Existing project.

Location. Waterways are part of a complicated network of tidal channels, some natural and some artificial, in the delta of San Joaquin River. Middle River, one of the principal channels, is a bychannel of San Joaquin River, leaving Old River, another bychannel above city of Stockton and rejoining main river about 15 miles below Stockton. Turner Cut enters San Joaquin River 6 miles upstream from Middle River and is connected by Empire Cut to Latham Slough and Middle River. (See Geological Survey, California quadrangles Bouldin, Woodward Island, Holt, Union Island, Stockton, and Lathrop.) Previous projects. For details see page 1290 of Annual Report for 1934. Existing project. Provides for a channel 9 feet deep and 100 feet wide in Middle River below Borden Highway Bridge, in Latham Slough between Middle River and Empire Cut, and in Empire Cut and Turner Cut between Middle River and San Joaquin River. Mean range of tide is about 3 feet during stages of extreme low water. Total Federal cost of new work was $6,754, exclusive of amounts expended on previous projects. Existing project was adopted by 1935 River and Harbor Act (River and Harbors Committee Doc. 48, 72d Cong., 1st sess., contains latest published map). Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Bank landings along channels are considered adequate. There is one large wharf with warehouse at Middle River station with rail connection. All facilities are privately owned, but open to public use. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Condition studies and miscellaneous inspections and reports were accomplished by hired labor. Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project initiated and completed in 1937. Total cost for existing project was $53,577, of which $6,754 was for new work and $46,823 for maintenance. 2. MOKELUMNE RIVER, CALIF. Location.

Construction of new work was initiated in March 1912; improvement of channel modification authorized in 1937, was initiated in May 1946, and completed in June 1947. Channel is navigable all year; head of navigation is in city of Suisun, Calif., about 400 feet above Sacramento Street. 8. RECONNAISSANCE AND CONDITION SURVEYS Record and condition surveys were conducted at various times during fiscal year at several navigation projects, primarily Old River, Calif., at a cost of $4,900. 9. OTHER AUTHORIZED NAVIGATION PROJECTS See table 35-G. Flood Control 10. BUCHANAN LAKE, CHOWCHILLA RIVER, CALIF. Location. On Chowchilla River about 36 miles above its mouth and about 16 miles northeast of city of Chowchilla, Calif. (See Geological Survey quadrangles for area.) Existing project. Provides for construction of a 205-foot high rockfill dam to create a reservoir with gross storage capacity of 150,000 acre-feet for flood control, irrigation, recreation, and fish and wildlife. In conjunction with dam, project plan provides for about 12 miles of downstream levee and channel construction on Ash Slough to accommodate a project design flow of 5,000 cubic feet per second within slough and 8 miles of levee and channel improvement on Berenda Slough. Operation and maintenance of dam and reservoir will be responsibility of the Federal Government. Approved cost estimate (July 1972) for existing project is $23,380,000, of which $21,800,000 is Federal cost, including $1,265,000 for basic recreation facilities, and $1,580,000 non-Federal costs for lands and damages, including relocations for downstream levee and channel improvements. Local interests have contracted with Bureau of Reclamation for irrigation service. For future non-Federal reimbursement, see Local cooperation paragraph. Local interests have also, over a period of years, expended about $500,000 for construction of low levees and clearing downstream channels to provide some local flood protection in project area. This work is inadequate during major floods. Existing project was adopted by 1962 Flood Control Act (S. Doc. 98, 87th Congress, 2d sess., contains latest published map). Local cooperation. California officially adopted project by chapter 1203 of statutes of 1963, and by chapter 1438 of those statutes authorized State Reclamation Board to furnish assurances that requirements for supplemental channel improvements will be met. With respect to the dam and reservoir, local interests must reimburse the Federal Government the portion of first cost and annual operation and maintenance cost allocated to irrigation functions of the project. These costs are estimated at 44.3 percent of the joint-use first cost and 41.9 percent of joint-use annual costs. Project authorization provides for project to be financially integrated into the Central Valley project of the Bureau of Reclamation. Irrigation repayment contracts were executed with the Chowchilla and La Branza Water Districts by the Bureau of Reclamation May 28, 1968. Local interests sponsoring any permanent pool in the reservoir for fish and wildlife or recreation must settle all claims for water rights pertaining to establishment and use of a permanent pool for these purposes. With respect to supplemental channel improvement work, section 3, Flood Control Act of June 22, 1936, applies. Local interests must also preserve, or restore and thereafter maintain, the other channels of Chowchilla River and Ash and Berenda Sloughs, from Buchanan Dam downstream to Chowchilla Canal, at capacities existing in 1960. Formal assurances for supplemental channel improvements were furnished by State Reclamation Board May 18, 1971. Supplemental assurances required by PL 91-646 (relocation assistance benefits to persons displaced by, or who have real property taken for a Federal public improvement project) were requested September 3, 1971 and furnished September 20, 1971. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Engineering continued at cost of $282,984.

LOWER SAN JOAQUIN RIVER AND TRIBUTARIES INCLUDING TUOLUMNE AND STANISLAUS RIVERS, CALIF. Location. (a) New Melones Lake: (See Improvement No. 37). (b) Tuolumne River Basin: Cherry Valley Reservoir-on Cherry Creek in upper Tuolumne River watershed, about 12 miles above junction with Tuolumne River, in northwest corner of Yosemite National Park, Calif. New Don Pedro Reservoir-on Tuolumne River, a tributary of San Joaquin River, in Tuolumne County, Calif., about 32 miles east of city of Modesto. (c) Lower San Joaquin River and tributaries: On lower reaches of San Joaquin River and of Stanislaus and Tuolumne Rivers. (See Geological Survey quadrangles of area.) Existing project. Tuolumne River Basin: A Federal contribution for flood protection to be afforded by local interests construction and operation of Cherry Valley and New Don Pedro Reservoirs for municipal water supply, power generation, irrigation, and flood control. Flood protection is being derived from operation for flood control of at least 340,000 acre-feet of storage in New Don Pedro Reservoir. First phase of development by local interests was construction for omtuhneirc ipal water supply, power generation, and purposes, of Cherry Valley Reservoir in upper Tuolumne River watershed, completed in December 1955 for interim flood control storage. Second phase of development was construction of New Don Pedro Dam on Tuolumne River. Improvement is a rock and earthfill dam, 565 feet high, creating a reservoir capacity of 2,- 030,000 acre-feet for municipal water supply, power generation, irrigation, and flood control. Estimated cost (July 1972) is $74,627,000 comprised of $57,793,000 non-Federal cost; $14,- 464,000 Federal contribution, including payments totaling $9,000,000 made to local interests toward first phase; and $370,000 Federal engineering and administrative costs, including $236,000 expended for initial phase. Lower San Joaquin River and tributaries: Levee and channel improvement for flood control along San Joaquin River from mouth of Merced River to San Joaquin Delta near Stockton, and on lower reaches of Stanislaus and Tuolumne Rivers by raising and strengthening existing levees; construction of new levees; revetment of river banks where required; removal of accumulated snags in main river channel; and acquisition, by local interests, of flowage rights on natural overflow lands where necessary to insure continued effectiveness of channel storage on San Joaquin River. Project was modified to permit local interests to construct levees and channel improvements upstream from Merced River, where required, in lieu of acquiring flowage easements. This project is an integral unit of overall plan for flood control and other purposes on San Joaquin River and tributaries, and supplements reservoir units of overall plan involving flood control storage on Tuolumne and Stanislaus Rivers and in existing Friant Reservoir on upper San Joaquin River by providing required channel capacity for regulated flows. Cost estimate (July 1972) for existing project is $19,370,000, of which $13,070,000 is Federal cost and $6,300,000 non-Federal cost for lands and damages including relocations. Local interests constructed levee and channel improvement works in area adjacent to river above mouth Merced River in lieu of acquisition of flowage easements at cost of $24,218,629. Left bank levee in Tuolumne River to Merced River reach is considered active and is included in foregoing cost estimate. Existing project was adopted by 1944 Flood Control Act (H. Flood Control Committee Doc. 2, 78th Cong., 2d sess., contains latest published map); as modified by Public Law 327, 84th Congress. The 1944 Flood Control Act authorized $8 million for partial accomplishment of project. Further monetary authorizations of $2,- 500,000, $5 million, $13 million, $2 million, $17 million, $18 million, and $44 million, were provided for this project by Public Laws 235 and 780, 83d Congress, and 85-500, 90-17, 90-483, 91-282, and 92-222, making a total monetary authorization of $109,500,000 available. Local cooperation. Tuolumne River Basin: In consideration of a Federal contribution toward first costs of construction, local interests must construct, maintain, and operate New Don Pedro Reservoir allocating 340,000 acre-feet of storage space therein for flood control, and operate such flood control reservation as prescribed by the 35-14 SACRAMENTO, CALIF., DISTRICT Secretary of the Army. A contract was negotiated in 1949 with local interests, comprising City and County of San Francisco and Turlock and Modesto Irrigation Districts, whereby they agreed to provide the above flood control storage in New Don Pedro Reservoir when constructed in exchange for Federal contribution. Construction of Cherry Valley Reservoir, and provisions of interim flood control storage therein as well as in existing Don Pedro and Hetch Hetchy Reservoirs, provided about 75 percent of flood control requirements for overall development, and Federal payments totaling $9 million made to local interests for this first phase. Second and final phase consists of construction of New Don Pedro Reservoir, operation of the flood control reservation in that reservoir, and cessation of operation of upstream reservoirs for flood control. Local interests have completed construction of New Don Pedro Reservoir. Federal Power Commission issued a license for project March 10, 1964. The irrigation districts approved acceptance of the FPC license May 23, 1966. Lower San Joaquin River and tributaries: Assurances were accepted by District Engineer January 6, 1956. Local interests fully complied with requirements for all Federal work completed or under contract, and indicated they will be able to fulfill local cooperation requirements for remaining work as scheduled. Ninety seven miles of the project total of 103 miles of levee construction have been transferred to and accepted by the State. State revised their plan to include a bypass in lieu of improvement of existing levees along upper river reaches, thereby eliminating about 175 miles of levee construction along main San Joaquin River. Completed State project included construction of about 193 miles of levees, with 18 major bridges and 7 control structures, extending along San Joaquin River from mouth of Merced River upstream to about 45 miles below Friant Dam near Fresno, at a total cost of $24,218,629. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Tuolumne River Basin, including Cherry Valley and New Don Pedro Reservoirs- Engineering continued on New Don Pedro. Fihal Federal contribution of $1,025,978 was made to the City and County of San Francisco and Turlock and Modesto Irrigation Districts. Lower San Joaquin River and tributaries- Engineering continued.

Estimated Federal cost of recreation facilities for Pine Flat Lake, to be funded from Code 710 appropriations is $947,100 (July 1972) exclusive of recreation facilities previously provided at a cost of $13,700. In addition, Federal cost of recreation facilities for Pine Flat Lake, funded from Public Works Acceleration Executive Act of 1962 appropriations, was $239,235 (July 1963), exclusive of recreation facilities provided from regular project and Code 710 funds. Operation and maintenance of dam and reservoir is Federal responsibility. Existing project was adopted by 1944 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 630, 76th Cong., 3d sess., contains latest published map). Local cooperation. Local interests must reimburse the Federal Government for first costs allocated to irrigation functions of reservoir portion of project in accordance with reclamation law. Under provision of War Department Civil Appropriations Act of 1947, the Secretary of War, with concurrence of the Secretary of the Interior, determined allocation of cost to irrigation should be set at an amount not to exceed $14,250,000. In addition, local interests must pay 37.4 percent of annual maintenance, operation, and replacement costs of dam and reservoir allocated to irrigation function. Repayment contracts between Bureau of Reclamation and the local water users for the irrigation use of the reservoir were executed December 23, 1963. Bureau is administering the contracts in accordance with reclamation law; however, local interests are testing in court the validity of reclamation law in regard to the Pine Flat contracts. Prior to execution of the final contracts, the Bureau provided conservation water to local interests under an interim contract. Irrigation interests paid $11,172,170 for irrigation services through December 31, 1971. With respect to the downstream channel improvements, section 3, Flood Control Act of June 22, 1936, applies. Kings River Conservation District represents local interests; assurances were accepted November 20, 1959. Local interests have furnished all requirements for construction rights-of-way for construction of channel improvements required to date. Three concessionaires- one each at Lakeridge Marina (Deer Creek), Lakeview Marina (Lombardo's Fishing Village), and Trimmer Marina provided public- use facilities in accordance with lease agreements with the Secretary of the Army. Estimated cost of facilities installed by these concessionaires is $347,000. Fresno County developed public-use facilities on an 85-acre tract immediately downstream from dam for picnicking, camping, swimming, and playground activities, at an estimated cost of $88,500 under provisions of a license agreement. Forest Service operates a picnic area at upper end of reservoir and two campgrounds and a picnic area at sites along reservoir perimeter. Total cost of development of these sites is about $37,500. Licenses.

Bay is on the Oregon coast 126 statute miles, south of the entrance to Columbia River. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart No. 5802.) Existing project. Plan provides for an entrance channel 6 feet deep and 50 feet wide, and a protective breakwater with a top width of 16 feet and crest elevations of 14.0 feet. Mean lower low water is plane of reference. Existing project was authorized by Section 107 of the 1960 River and Harbor Act, as amended by Section 310 of the 1965 River and Harbor Act, and approved July 10, 1968. Estimated project costs are $200,000 (1971), of which non-Federal costs are $92,200. Local cooperation. River and Harbor Act of 1965 provides that local interests be required to: provide lands, easements, and rights-of-way required for construction and subsequent maintenance of the project; hold and save the United States free from damages; construct, operate and maintain adequate mooring facilities, open to all on equal terms: accomplish without cost to the United States such alterations of utility facilities as required for project; and contribute in cash 49.5 percent of the Federal first cost of constructing the breakwater and entrance channel, such contribution is presently estimated to be $92,200 (1971). Additional non-Federal work consisting of dredging in berthing area and construction of mooring facilities, estimated to cost $60,000, will be accomplished by local interest. Terminal facilities. Two small floats adequate for accommodation of about 29 boats, are owned and operated by the port. An asphalt launching ramp lies on adjacent port property. Operations and results during fiscal year. New Work: In a letter dated November 16,1971, the Port of Alsea requested a one year extension for deferral of the project due to present economic conditions of the area. Plans and specifications complete. Condition at end of fiscal year. Detailed project report was approved by Chief of Engineers July 10, 1968. Invitation for bids will be scheduled upon receipt of funds and local contribution. 2. CHETCO RIVER, OREG. Location. Rises in Siskiyou Mountains of Coast Range at an elevation of 4,000 feet, flows for about 51 miles in a circuitous route, and empties into Pacific Ocean at Brookings, Oreg., 300 miles south of entrance to Columbia River and 345 miles north of San Francisco Bay. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 5702 and 5896.) Existing project. Construction of two jetties originally authorized was accomplished December 1957 at a cost of $489,554. Modification in 1965 authorized an entrance 120 feet wide and 14 feet deep; extension to north jetty about 450 feet in length with an increase in elevation of existing portion; a barge turning basin about 250 feet wide, 650 feet long, and 14 feet deep; a protective dike about 1,800 feet long with a top elevation of 18 feet; and a small-boat access channel 100 feet wide and 12 feet deep. Mean lower low water is plane of reference. Tidal range in cove between lower low water and mean higher high water is 6.9 feet and extreme is from 2.6 feet below to 9.7 feet above mean lower low water. Cost of project modification (1970) is $2,- 061,000. Existing project was authorized by 1945 River and Harbor Act (H. Doc 817, 77th Cong., 2d sess.) and 2965 River and Harbor Act (S. Doc. 21, 89th Cong., 1st sess. 37-2 PORTLAND, OREG., DISTRICT Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. At Sporthaven dock there is a private facility open to all on equal terms for loading lumber and wood chip barges. This facility is barely adequate for existing commerce. A small-boat basin is downstream from town of Harbor, Oreg. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: A total of 35,173 cubic yards of material was removed by U.S. hopper dredge Pacific. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of jetties was completed December 1957. Removal of rock pinnacles and an abandoned bridge structure was accomplished in June 1959. Under authorized modification October 1965, two contracts were completed. Construction of north jetty extension and excavation of entrance channel was initiated July 1968 and completed July 1969; and construction of a dike at the mouth, and excavation of entrance channel, turning basin and small-boat basin were initiated September 1969 and completed March 1970. 3. COLUMBIA AND LOWER WILLAMETTE RIVERS BELOW VANCOUVER, WASH., AND PORTLAND, OREG. Location. Project embraces 103.5 miles of Columbia River below Vancouver, Wash., and 14 miles of Willamette River below Portland, Oreg. For description of Columbia River see Improvement No. 5 and of Willamette River, Improvement No. 21. Previous project. For details see pages 1995 and 1998 of Annual Report for 1915, and page 1746 of Annual Report or 1938. Existing project. Provides for a channel 35 feet deep and 500 feet wide from river mile 106.5 to 105.5, distance between existing bridges; a channel 40 feet deep and 600 feet wide from Vancouver, Wash., river mile 105.5 to mouth of Columbia River, river mile 3; a turning basin at Vancouver, Wash., 40 feet deep, 800 feet wide, and about 5,000 feet long; a turning basin at Longview, Wash., 40 feet deep, average width of 1;200 feet, and about 6,000 feet long; and a channel 40 feet deep in Willamette River with varying widths of 600 to 1,900 feet from mouth (river mile 0) to Broadway Bridge (river mile 11.6) which encompasses Portland Harbor area, subject to provisions that channel from mouth of Willamette River to turning basin at Vancouver, Wash., be limited to 500 feet in width until need for additional width is demonstrated by developed traffic. Existing project also provides for auxiliary channels 10 feet deep and 300 feet wide near Cathlamet, Wash.; 30 feet deep and 300 feet wide in St. Helens (Oreg.) Channel; and 30 feet deep and 500 feet wide connecting upper end of St. Helens Channel with main ship channel of Columbia; 24 feet deep and 200 feet wide along frontage of town of Rainier, Oreg., extended at its upper and lower ends to deep water in Columbia River, 8 feet deep and 150 feet wide from this depth in Columbia River through old mouth of Cowlitz River to a point about 3,000 feet upstream from present terminus of harbor line; a channel from Longview Port dock downstream along pierhead line and past Weyerhaeuser Timber Co. plant at Longview to a connection with main ship channel below Mount Coffin, the downstream 2,400 feet of this channel to be 30 feet deep and 300 feet wide and remainder to be 28 feet deep and 250 feet wide; construction of a small-boat mooring basin at Astoria, Oreg., to include a sheet-pile, sandfilled breakwater about 2,400 feet long with a 30-foot roadway along its full length, and steelpile shore wings totaling about 1,460 feet long and for construction of stone-and-pile dikes and revetments. Plane of reference in estuary from mouth to Harrington Point is mean lower low water; thence to Portland and Vancouver, low water. Tidal range between mean lower low water and mean higher high water at mouth of Columbia is about 8 feet, and at Portland and Vancouver about 2.5 feet at low stages of rivers. Extreme tidal ranges are about 13 and 3 feet, respectively. Annual freshets have little effect on depths at mouth of Columbia; at Portland and Vancouver they average about 20 feet, while highest known reached a stage of 33 feet above low water at Portland. Estimated Federal cost of new work (1972) is $25,300,000. (See table 37-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. River and Harbor Act of 1962 provides that local interests furnish lands and rights-of-way for construction and future maintenance and aids to navigation upon request of Chief of Engineers, including suitable spoil-disposal areas and necessary retaining dikes, bulkheads, and embankments therefor or costs of such retaining works; hold the United States free from damages; provide and maintain adequate public terminal and transfer facilities open to all on equal terms; make alterations as are required in sewer, water supply, drainage, and other utility facilities for construction and maintenance of the project; assist in work of improving and maintaining main ship channel in Columbia and Willamette Rivers by loaning the United States a suitable pipeline dredge in good operating condition, with full crew and equipment, without charge other than reimbursement for full operating costs of dredge on a basis approved by Chief 37-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 of Engineers, said operating costs to include proportionate maintenance costs based on period of time dredge is in use for the United States; provide and maintain depths in berthing areas and access channels serving terminals, including 50-foot adjacent to pierhead lines, commensurate with depths provided in related project areas; and contribute in cash 1.8 percent of cost of construction of 40-foot channel by the Corps for enhancement of land owned by Port of Portland and contribute in cash 3.5 percent of cost of construction of 35-foot channel by the Corps, and that such contributions estimated at $386,000 be paid in lump sum prior to commencement of construction. This sum was paid in 1964. Total non-Federal cost is $521,000. Terminal facilities. At Portland, Oreg., there are 20 terminals with facilities to handle general cargo, bulk grain, lumber, and miscellaneous other cargo. Also available at this facility to the public, are 10 fuel oil and gasoline wharves and piers, mechanical handling devices, and heavy lift equipment. Also within boundary of Portland harbor there are facilities for storing 12,680,000 bushels of grain for transhipment by water. At Astoria, Oreg., there is a large municipal terminal with a 1-million bushel capacity grain elevator and facilities for receiving and handling all types of general cargo. At Vancouver, Wash., there are two municipal facilities, capable of berthing five ships simultaneously. Each berth is completely outfitted with mechanical and heavy lift facilities for receiving and handling all types of cargo. Also available are two grain elevators with a total capacity of 7,500,000 bushels of grain. Port of Longview has a public terminal on Columbia River and a privately owned grain elevator with a capacity of 5,365,000 bushels. At other locations on Columbia River between Portland and Columbia River entrance there are sufficient private facilities to accommodate river vessels and fishing craft. These facilities, with planned extensions, are considered adequate for existing commerce. (For details see Port Series Nos. 33 and 34, Corps of Engineers, published in 1963 and 1962 respectively.) Operations and results during fiscal year. New Work: A contract for exploratory dredging at Slaughters Bar was completed in July 1971. Plans and specifications are being prepared for dredging at Slaughters Bar, with a contract award scheduled for early fiscal year 1973. A revised draft of the environmental statement was being prepared. Contract dredging by pipeline dredge Oregon removed 1,081,836 cubic yards of material at various locations. Maintenance: A total of 9,694,539 cubic yards of material was removed, 8,042,597 by U.S. Government hopper and pipeline dredges and 1,651,942 by contract. A contract for repair of pile dikes was completed in September 1972. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project as authorized by act of July 24, 1946, was completed September 1950. Main channel was completed in 1933, except that a revision at Harrington Point was made in 1935. Dikes were completed in 1935 and extension of Vancouver turning basin in 1939. Auxiliary channel in vicinity of Longview was completed in 1949, and improvement of mouth of Cowlitz River and small boat mooring basin at Astoria were completed in 1950. Dredging 40-foot channel in Columbia River from Portland, Oreg. and Vancouver, Wash. to the sea as authorized by Act of October 23, 1962, is 67 percent complete. Project depths are maintained all year except during short shoaling periods following freshets which generally occur in May, June, and July. In Columbia and Willamette Rivers between mouth and Broadway Bridge at Portland a draft of 33 feet at low tide and 35 feet at high tide is practicable all year. In Columbia River between mouth of Willamette River and Vancouver, Wash., drafts of 28 and 30 feet at low and high tide, respectively, are practicable all year. (See table 37-C for total cost of existing project to June 30, 1972.) 4. COLUMBIA RIVER AT BAKER BAY, WASH. Location. Baker Bay is a shallow body of water about 15 square miles in extent on north side of Columbia River near its mouth. Bay is separated from river by Sand Island, a low-lying sand bar only a few feet above high tide level. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 6151.) Existing project. A main channel, 10 feet deep and 200 feet wide extending through easterly passage at Sand Island to port of Ilwaco, a distance of about 5 miles; a mooring basin 10 and 12 feet deep, about 20 acres in extent, east of port of Ilwaco dock, with protecting breakwaters; and a west channel 10 feet deep connecting basin with deep water in Columbia River, with a width of 150 feet, increased to 200 feet for 2,000 feet at southerly end. Mean lower low water is plane of reference. Tidal range between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is about 8 feet, and extreme about 13 feet. (See table 37-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Wharves, floats, ramps, and berths, for fishing craft, barges and towboats. Small-boat basin and protecting breakwater provides moorings for numerous fishing and recreational craft all year. Facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. 37-4 PORTLAND, OREG., DISTRICT Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Hopper dredge Pacific removed 12,750 cubic yards of material. Condition at end of fiscal year. Channel extending through easterly passage of Sand Island was completed in 1934. Dredging west channel to 8 feet was accomplished September 1948. Deepening west channel to 10 feet, and boat basin and breakwater construction at Ilwaco, Wash., finished December 1957, completed the project. 5. COLUMBIA RIVER AT THE MOUTH, OREG. AND WASH. Location. Rises in British Columbia, through which it flows for 425 miles. It enters the United States in northeastern Washington, flows southerly to mouth of Snake River, thence westerly between Oregon and Washington, and empties into Pacific Ocean 645 miles north of San Francisco Bay and 160 miles south of Strait of Juan de Fuca. Total length of river is 1,210 miles. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 5902, 6151, 6152, 6153, 6154, 6155, and 6156; also Geological Survey map of Washington.) Previous project. For details see page 1999, Annual Report for 1915 and page 174 of Annual Report for 1938. Existing project. Provides for a channel across bar of suitable alinement with depth of 48 feet at mean lower low water for a width of one-half mile, to be secured by dredging and construction of a spur jetty on north shore. Tidal range on bar between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is about 8 feet, and extreme tidal range is about 13 feet. Estimated Federal cost for new work (1972) is $29,910,000 which includes $3,310,000 for additional recreation facilities at completed project, but excludes $9,660,000 for jetty rehabilitation. (See table 37-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Estimated cost of local cooperation on basis of cost-sharing for additional recreation facilities is $3,310,000. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Studies on the construction of spur jetty "B" have revealed that project justification would be uncertain due to limited effectiveness. This portion of the project has been placed in the inactive category. Construction of additional recreation facilities at Fort Canby State Park, consisting of minor road realignment and parking area was completed November 22, 1971. Maintenanlce: U.S. hopper dredge Biddle removed 2,888,307 cubic yards of material from the entrance channel. Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project is 51 percent complete. Advance engineering studies have revealed that construction of spur jetty "B" is not economically justified. This portion of the project has been placed in the inactive category. Project as originally authorized, consisting of extension of south jetty constructed under previous project, construction of north jetty, and 40-foot channel depth over entrance bar, was completed in 1918. Dredging 48-foot bar channel was completed September 1957. Rehabilitation of south jetty was completed with new work funds September 1964 and rehabilitation of north jetty in March 1965. Total costs to June 30, 1972, from Federal funds for existing project were $41,848,919 of which $15,121,508 was for new work, $4,040,879 for jetty restoration and $22,- 686,532 for maintenance. In addition, $475,000 and $25,000 contributed by Ports of Portland and Astoria, Oreg., respectively, were expended for new work. 6. COLUMBIA RIVER BETWEEN VANCOUVER, WASH., AND THE DALLES, OREG. Location. On Columbia River, between Interstate Bridge at Vancouver, Wash., 106.5 miles above mouth and The Dalles, Oreg., mile 191, a distance of 84.5 miles. For description of Columbia River, see Improvement No. 5, "Columbia River at the Mouth." Existing project. Channel 27 feet deep at low water and 300 feet wide between Vancouver, Wash., and The Dalles, Oreg., 84.5 miles; a channel 10 feet deep at low water and 300 feet wide at upstream entrance to Oregon Slough, Oreg., a suitable turning basin adjacent to site of port development in vicinity of Camas and Washougal, Wash., a boat basin at Hood River, Oreg., 500 by 1,300 feet and 10 feet deep at normal Bonneville pool level, with a connecting channel of same depth to deepwater, and a protecting breakwater on easterly side; a barge channel to waterfront at Bingen, Wash., 10 feet deep at normal Bonneville pool level, 200 feet wide and about 1 mile long, and an access channel 7 feet deep at normal Bonneville pool level, 100 feet wide and about 1,000 feet long, to a natural mooring basin for small boats near east end of channel; and construction of The Dalles Harbor, Oreg., to provide a breakwater and shear boom protected basin about 400 by 800 feet in size with depth of 8 feet below a pool elevation of 72.5 feet at mean sea level. Tidal range between mean lower low water and mean higher high water at Vancouver is about 2.5 feet and at Bonneville about 0.2 foot at low stages of the river. Extreme tidal ranges are about 4 feet and 0.4 foot, respectively. Annual freshets average about 21 feet at Vancouver, while the highest known stage 37-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 reached 33 feet above low water. (See Table 37-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. At Vancouver, Wash., immediately upstream from the two highway bridges are a privately owned sand and gravel facility, a Coast Guard dock, a private towboat moorage equipped with marine railway and shipbuilding facilities, and facilities for transfer of bulk petroleum from river barges. (For further details concerning facilities at Vancouver see Port Series No. 33, Corps of Engineers, published in 1963.) In northern section of Portland, Oreg., on south bank of Columbia River, about 1.7 miles upstream from interstate bridges, is a wharf with a 110-ton derrick used for transfer of cargoes between trucks and barges. About 3.5 miles upstream from interstate bridges are two liquid- fertilizer storage tanks each with a capacity of 229,000 gallons. This facility has necessary equipment for unloading tanker barges and loading trucks. At Camas, Wash., about 13.5 miles upstream from Vancouver, there is a private wharf used for transfer of papermill supplies and paper to and from barges, and facilities for discharging bulk oils from barges.

Monitoring of Mossyrock flood control operation is assigned to the Corps of the Federal Power Commission as the Mossyrock license calls for specific flood control regulation. The Bureau sponsored projects during Fiscal Year 1972 were operated satisfactorily for flood control. Only one significant winter highwater occurred in January and a higher than normal spring runoff from snowmelt. Mossyrock was involved in 4 separate highwater periods. Regulation during the January 21, 1972 highwater, the larger of the four highwaters, exceeded the 70,000 cfs goal established for the downstream station at Castle Rock. All reservoirs filled to their maximum conservation levels following the flood season. Total cost in Fiscal Year 1972 of monitoring the four projects during Fiscal Year 1972 and preparing a draft of a Report on Reservoir Regulation for Flood Control for Mossyrock was $2,058. 49.

Field surveys and other means were used to collect basic flood data to compile channel cross sections, water surface profiles, stage hydrographs and flooded-area maps for inclusion in two flood plain information reports. A narrative, including a description of the flood situation along each stream studied, was also prepared for publication in the reports. Both reports were started in Fiscal Year 1972, and now are near completion. They are identified as the "Harrisburg, Oregon" and "Lebanon, Oregon," Flood Plain Information reports. Completed studies are identified in Table 37-R. Costs or flood plain information studies during the fiscal year were $171,293. Total costs for collection and study of basic data were $252,301. 62. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Water quality investigation. Program of observing water temperatures and meteorological data at several of the larger and more significant storage projects in Willamette Basin is still active. The Fish Commission of Oregon is still active in monitoring specific projects where they have an interest. Over 350,000 acre feet of stored water was released during the low flow season to increase streamflow for navigation, pollution abatement, and fish life. The dissolved oxygen content of Willamette River in the Portland area is no longer a barrier to the fall run of salmon that start moving into Willamette River in late August. A turbidity problem still exists at Hills 37-31 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Creek and a group from Oregon State University completed a study of this problem. Their reports contain observed conditions and recommendations as to how the situation might be improved. The Corps Waterways Experiment Station is developing a computer program for the Portland District that will determine the turbidity that can be expected at future storage projects. Nitrogen supersaturation has become a water quality problem on Columbia River as it relates to the fishery industry. Studies are underway to determine the degree of nitrogen supersaturation and how best to alleviate or minimize this very serious problem. The State of Oregon has enacted very exacting laws with regard to this nitrogen problem. A computer program for determining the effect of storage projects on downstream water temperature has been developed and its application has been used extensively during the past year to study the downstream effects and enhancement that proposed storage projects will have on river temperatures. Hydrologic studies Hydrologic studies for Flood Plain Information Reports and Flood Insurance Reports have been numerous as local interests are becoming more concerned about damages resulting from floods. Environment and ecology are becoming real project considerations and they are incorporated into all hydrologic studies. The start of a real time automated reporting hydrologic network for reservoir regulation is underway with the first phase to be completed in Fiscal Year 1973. Two other phases are to follow which will include the entire Columbia Basin plus Western Oregon and Washington. Improvements in procedures to determine reservoir temperatures, nitrogen supersaturation, dissolved oxygen, suspended sediment, turbidity, design floods, flood forecasting and flood regulation are a continuing program. Civil Works Investigations. The erosion test program that was being performed in the Detroit Test Conduit (ES 825) has been combined with ES 628, Epoxy Resins and Other Adhesives for Concrete. No work has been done on ES 825 during the past year. No tests were conducted in the Detroit Test Chute (ES 826) during the year. Work performed consisted essentially of necessary maintenance. Computer programs. Utilization of computer programs in the design and analysis of complex structures is a continuing program. Graphic displays and the use of the finite elements program has contributed immeasurably in checking designs for factors of safety. Data reduction and computations of earthwork quantities, control of survey work, and economic analysis is continuing. Installation of a new electronic plotter (scheduled for FY 73) should provide an improved service to our engineers and draftsman. Total research and development costs were $11,037. 37-32 PORTLAND, OREG., DISTRICT TABLE 37-A COST AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT See Section Total to in Text Project Funding FY 69 FY 70 FY 71 FY 72 June 30, 1972 1.

On Blackfoot River in Caribou County, Idaho, about 40 miles southeast of city of * All cost and financial statements for projects are listed at the end of this chapter. All other tables are referenced in text and also appear at the end of this chapter. 39-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Blackfoot. (See Geological Survey quadrangle sheets Paradise Valley, Cranes Flat, Portneuf, and Henrys Fork location and surroundings in immediate vicinity of project.) Existing project. Blackfoot Reservoir is owned and operated by Fort Hall Agency of Bureau of Indian Affairs, Department of Interior. Main dam, which is about 55 feet high above streambed, is a rockfill structure with a concrete core. China Hat Dam, an earthfill structure, closes an arm of reservoir near its upstream end to minimize storage loss due to seepage in pervious formation of that area. Existing main dam structure includes a 3,800-cubic-foot-per-second spillway on the right abutment and an outlet tunnel in left abutment with a capacity of 2,000 cubic feet per second. Reservoir has a usable storage capacity of 413,000 acre-feet at design maximum water surface elevation 6124. However, due to experience with seepage losses from southern end of reservoir, operating level has been limited to about elevation 6120, or about 340,000 acre-feet storage capacity. Water stored in reservoir is used to irrigate lands in Fort Hall Indian Reservation in vicinity of Blackfoot and south. Recommended modifications to the project would provide 38,000 acre-feet additional storage capacity for flood control. Modifications would permit operation of reservoir for flood control to a maximum water surface elevation of 6126. The spillway capacity would be increased to 21,700 cubic feet per second by lowering crest elevation from 6118.5 to 6112 and increasing spillway width from 52 feet to 94 feet. Spillway would be equipped with new gates. Outlet works would be modernized and rehabilitated for flood control operation. China Hat Dam would be raised 10 feet and Idaho State Highway No. 34 would be raised in grade for approximately one-half mile along with grade raising of two existing bridges. Recommended modification was authorized by Flood Control Act of 1962. Construction to be accomplished by the Corps, with continued operation of project by Bureau of Indian Affairs. Estimated Federal cost of proposed modifications (July 1972) is $3,320,000. Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Real estate design memorandum submitted December 1971. An environmental impact statement is being prepared. Condition at end of fiscal year. Hydrology design memorandum has been approved. The general design memorandum has been conditionally approved subject to comments of the Office of Management and Budget on post-authorization changes. Opposition to the project has been voiced to the Idaho Congressional Delegation by owners of summer homes adjacent to the reservoir which have or are being constructed below the existing authorized reservoir storage elevation. The District has indicated to the Idaho Congressional Delegation that a public meeting to explain and answer questions on land acquisition would be arranged following approval of the real estate design memorandum by Office, Chief of Engineers. 3. CATHERINE CREEK LAKE, OREG. Location. On Catherine Creek about 8 miles above Union, Oreg., in Section 7, Township 5 South, Range 41 East, Willamette Meridian. Existing project. Dam will be an earth embankment with an impervious core protected by sand and gravel filters. Shell material will consist of granular fill covered with rockfill zones on outside surfaces. Upstream face will be protected by riprap. Height will be about 210 feet above streambed and crest length 790 feet. The ungated side-channel spillway will have a capacity of 18,500 cubic feet per second. Lake will have a storage capacity of 61,000 acre-feet with 52,000 acre-feet of usable space at elevation 3435. Improvement will provide for flood control, irrigation, municipal water supply, fish and wildlife, and recreation. Project was authorized by 1965 Flood Control Act. Estimated costs (July 1972) are $20,600,000 Federal and $121,000 non-Federal. Local cooperation. The Water Supply Act of 1958 as amended applies. The city of Union, Oreg., has provided assurances of willingness and ability to meet requirements. Reimbursable costs are estimated to be $110,500 for construction and $200 annually for operation, maintenance, and replacement. The Federal Water Project Recreation Act of 1965 applies. This requirement for local cooperation was added after submittal of the survey report. Union County Court has submitted a letter of assurance of local cooperation on project recreation. Reimbursable costs for recreation are estimated to be $218,500 for construction and $22,800 annually for operation, maintenance, and replacement. In accordance with reclamation law, local irrigation interests will be required to repay portion of first costs and annual operation, maintenance, and replacement costs of dam and lake allocated to the irrigation function, currently estimated at $1,488,000 and $13,600, respectively. Portion of construction cost beyond ability of irrigators to repay will be returned to reclamation fund from revenues derived from disposition of power marketed through the Bonneville Power Admin- 39-2 WALLA WALLA, WASH., DISTRICT istration. Irrigation districts are to contract for repayment of cost allocated to irrigation. Costs for fish and wildlife mitigation and anadromous fishery enhancement for an ongoing Federal program are to be borne by the Federal government, but local interests will be required to assume average annual costs of $2,100. Operations and results during fiscal year. hydrology design memorandum was submitted in November 1971 and a general design memorandum was submitted in October 1971. A water quality report for the Catherine Creek and Grande Ronde projects was submitted June 1972. An environmental impact statement is being prepared. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is approximately 99 percent complete. 4. COLUMBIA RIVER BASIN, LOCAL FLOOD PROTECTION PROJECTS Location. Improvements included in this project are along Columbia River and its tributaries. Existing project. Flood Control Act of 1950 approved a general comprehensive plan for Columbia River Basin for flood control and other purposes based on plans in H.

Anchorage is in southcentral Alaska on the southeast shore of Knik Arm and north of Turnagain Arm near junction with Cook Inlet. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 8553 and 8557.) Existing project. Provides for a deepwater harbor by dredging adjacent to municipal docks to a depth of 35 feet below mean lower low water and constructing two jetties or other protective works when required, along northerly and southerly ends. Dredging was completed June 1967; construction of jettles has been deferred. Tidal range between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 29.0 feet and extreme range is 42.0 feet. (See table 40-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Four wharves capable of handling oceap going vessels and open for public use. Two are owned by the city; a general cargo wharf and an oil handling and bunkering facility. The other two are privately owned. Five additional privately owned wharves are used for industrial purposes. Operations and results during the fiscal year. Regular funds, maintenance: Under maintenance dredging contract awarded June 1971, decking was removed from the remainder of Ocean Dock and 91,395 cubic yards of material were removed * All cost and financial statements for projects are listed at the end of this chapter.

Annual Maintenance dredging contract was awarded June 27, 1972. Condition at end of fiscal year. Dredging was accomplished jointly by local interests and United States Army to provide a depth of 35 feet alongside the newly constructed city dock and 32 feet at a distance of 50 feet from the ocean dock in July 1961; city and Army funds were used. Emergency dredging was performed at City Dock July and August 1965. The first phase of new work in the authorized project, consisting of dredging the port area to a depth of 35 feet, was accomplished October 1966 through June 1967. Maintenance dredging was performed September and October 1968; May and June 1969 (emergency dredging); July, August, and September 1969; August and September 1970; and August and September 1971. Portions of the Ocean Dock were removed under dredging contracts in 1967 and 1971. Municipal dock facilities have expanded nearly to the limits of the authorized project. 2. BETHEL SMALL-BOAT HARBOR, ALASKA Location. The village of Bethel is 65 miles up river on the north bank of the Kuskokwim River, which flows through southwestern Alaska. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 9302.) Existing project. Project includes provision of a 7,700-foot long small-boat harbor and entrance channel by deepening, widening, and straightening of the upper 6,800 feet of Brown's Slough. Estimated Federal cost (1971) of the project is $835,000. Range between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 4.0 feet, and extreme range is 10.0 feet. Water level also depends on the stage of the Kuskokwim River. (See table 40-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Local interest will provide, maintain, and operate without cost to the United States, as needed for transient and local operators, adequate public access roads, parking areas, and other needed public use shore facilities, open and available to all on equal terms.

Multiple-Purpose Projects Including Power 28. SNETTISHAM, ALASKA Location. At mouth of Speel River, between Crater Lake to the west and Long Lake to the north, 28 nautical miles southeast of Juneau, Alaska. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 8227.) Existingproject. Snettisham is a two-stage project. The first stage construction is scheduled to provide Juneau, by December 1972, with 46,700 kilowatts of power by tapping Long Lake, elevation 815 feet, to drive two turbines at tidewater. Water will be transported to the underground powerhouse through an approximately horizontal tunnel 8,400 feet long and a subsequent 1,- 400-foot penstock dropping at a 46 degree angle to tidewater. Power from the two generators will be transmitted along 138 kilovolt overhead lines supported by colored towers with a submarine cable traversing Taku Inlet to Juneau. Estimated cost of the first stage (1971) is $78,900,000. A dam originally planned to increase the energy capability of Long Lake has been deferred. As additional power becomes necessary, Crater Lake, elevation 1,022 feet, will be tapped to drive a third turbine to be placed in the powerhouse constructed under the first stage. Total estimated Federal cost of construction (1971) is $88,- 300,000. (See table 40-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Regular funds, new work: During fiscal year 1972, all underground concrete was completed for the first stage, including power tunnel, penstock, surge tank, underground powerhouse, and tailrace facilities. Installation of unit one turbine and part of its generator was completed. Clearing of 32- of the 42-mile transmission right-of-way was completed. The transmission 1ne erection contract was awarded and foundation construction was started late during the fiscal year. All necessary supply contracts for switch gear and control panels were awarded. No work has been accomplished under the second stage. Condition at end of fiscal year. The first stage of the project is essentially 57 percent complete at a cost of approximately $50,455,000 to date. Anticipated power-on-line date remains December 1972. 29. BRADLEY LAKE, ALASKA Location. Near head of Kachemak Bay near southwestern end of Kenai Peninsula, Alaska, about 100 air miles south of Anchorage and 25 miles northeast of Homer. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 8552.) Existing project. Provides for a main dam raising waters of Bradley Lake from an elevation of 1,090 feet to elevation 1,196 feet; two small dams to divert water from nearby drainages; a power tunnel, surge tank, and penstock to deliver water to a powerhouse located at tidewater, with an installed capacity of 64,000 kilowatts and transmission facilities to serve the Cook Inlet area. Latest cost estimate for new work (1971) is $152,000,000. (See table 40-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Regular funds, Advance Engineering and Design: The feasibility report was submitted to the marketing agency in July 1971 for determination of the financial feasibility of Bradley Lake power. Condition at end of fiscal year. Reappraisal of the economic and financial feasibility was initiated in September 1968. Engineering studies, design, cost estimates, and economic studies have been completed for 12 separate schemes of development for a peaking plant rather than a baseload facility in an effort to maximize the water resource available and to meet projected demands for peaking power. Investigations have been made to determine the size of plant output best suited to meet existing and future marketing conditions. These investigations are being coordinated with the Alaska Power Administration, and United States Department of the Interior, the potential marketing agency. A review of the 1969 Alaska Power Survey by the Federal Power Commission will be initiated early in FY 1973. This review will update an inventory of power sites, market areas, need projections, and intertie networks responsive to present growth and resource development in Alaska. The results of this review will have significant bearing on the marketability of Bradley Lake power. 40-12 ALASKA DISTRICT General Investigations 30.

The Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors is a continuing body created by section 3, 1902 River and Harbor Act. The Board is comprised of 7 senior engineer officers: The Chairman, five members who are Division Engineers (rotative basis) from continental U. S. Army Engineer Division, and the Resident Member, who 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 conduct an independent review of survey reports covering projects for river and harbor, flood control, and multiple- purpose improvements prepared by the Corps in response to an act of the Congress or a resolution of the House or Senate Public Works Committees, 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 independent review of special reports ordered by the Congress and report thereon in the same manner as for survey reports when directed by the Chief of Engineers; (c) to consider and approve general plans for major modification and reconstruction of any lock, canal, canalized river or other work for the use or benefit of navigation. The functions of the former Beach Erosion Board pertaining to review of reports 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 the terms of the Merchant Marine Act of June 5, 1920. Under this act, the Board, in cooperation with the 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 responsibility of the Maritime Administration. In addition to its statutory 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 resource development; conduct investigations and studies of economics of ports and waterways; and conduct a year-long program of in-service training for planners generally at GS-12 and GS-13 levels in all aspects of Federal water resources development to assist in meeting the needs of the Corps for increased numbers of qualified personnel in this field. Also, the Resident Member is second alternate for the Secretary of the Army on the Foreign-Trade Zones Board, first alternate for the Chief of Engineers on the National Capital Planning Commission, and ex-officio secretary of the American Section, Permanent International Association of Navigation Congresses, a quasi-official organization. On June 30, 1972 the Board was composed of the following members: Maj. Gen. W. Roper, Chairman; Maj. Gen. W. L. Starnes, Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, Ohio River; Maj. Gen. H. R. Parfitt, Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, Southwestern; Maj. Gen. E. Graves, Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central; Maj. Gen. K. T. Sawyer, Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Pacific; Maj. Gen. R. H. Groves, Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Atlantic; and Col. A. D. Wilder, Resident Member. In addition to the foregoing, the following officers were also assigned for a period during the year to membership on the Board: Maj. Gen. R. H. Free, Maj. Gen. J. W. Morris, and Maj. Gen. F. A. Camm. A summary of investigations authorized by the Congress from establishment of the Board in 1902 to the end of fiscal year 1972, the number of authorizations completed, the number of authorizations remaining to be reported on, and the number of reports submitted under continuing authorizations are set forth in Table 41-A under Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors. From 1902 through June 30, 1972, the Board took final action on 8,108 reports, recommending favorably on 3,593 and unfavorably on 4,515. During fiscal 1972, the Board held 5 meetings of 41-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 1 to 2 days' duration in Washington. The Board considered 60 reports, acted favorably on 17, unfavorably on 31, deferred action on 8, and returned 1; reporting offices withdrew 3. The Board recommended construction of projects totaling $421,014,000, of which $333,309,000 was the estimated U. S. cost and $87,705,000 the cost to local interests for work and cash contributions. The 31 unfavorable reports acted on by the Board contained no cost estimates as they dealt with improvements that were obviously unfavorable or no longer necessary. The Board also submitted comments on reports as follows: 2 Type II Comprehensive Studies, 13 reviews on small projects prepared under continuing authorities, and 5 reviews of General Design Memorandums. Board staff comments were submitted on 5 Mississippi River Commission Reports, and on 15 miscellaneous reports. Studies prescribed by various River and Harbor Acts and Section 8, Merchant Marine Act of 1920, continued, and the results were published in the series of reports titled "Port Series" (See Table 41-B). 41-2 TABLE 41-A BOARD OF ENGINEERS FOR RIVERS AND HARBORS Reports Submitted During Fiscal Year Authorities Authorities Authorities Authorities Authorities 1972 (Under Con- Received Received Completed Completed Remaining tinuing, Multiple Authority for Prior to During Prior to During to be and Special Investigation July 1, 1971 Fiscal Year July 1, 1971 Fiscal Year Reported on Authority) Flood Control and River and Harbor Acts, Exclusive of 1909 River and Harbor Act 5,227 0 4,885 6 336 River and Harbor Act of 1909- Continuing Authority for Major Modification 1 - - - 1 1 Congressional Resolutions Exclusive of Great Lakes Harbors 4,564 70 3,198 45 1,391 P1 71-84-1 Authority for Multiple Hurricane Studies 1 - - - 1 1 Total 9,793 70 8,083 51 1,729 2 TABLE 41-B PORTS SERIES PUBLICATIONS Published during the year: No. 12, The Ports of Wilmington and Morehead City, N.C.

Field operations of the Commission restricted to levee construction under section 6, 1928 Flood Control Act (local interests contributing one-third of costs and furnishing rights-of-way), are conducted within the followng limits by two districts which report direct to the Commission on matters within their jurisdiction-St. Louis District: Mississippi River (sec. 6) levees from upper limits of Memphis District to Clemens Station, Mo. 1,- 254 miles AHP) on right bank and Hamburg Bay, Ill. (1,215 miles AHP) on left bank, and the Illinois River from its mouth to mile 120 at Havana, Illinois. Rock Island District: Mississippi River (sec. 6) levees from upper limits of St. Louis District to Rock Island, Ill. (1,437 miles AHP). Work accomplished is shown in Table 42-N. 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 Mexico 115 miles below New Orleans. It is improved for barge navigation for 1,832 miles to Minneapolis, Minnesota. 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 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 5 miles. (See map of alluvial valley of Mississippi River, scale 1:500,000.) Observations made by Mississippi River Commission to June 30, 1972, show approximate maximum and minimum discharges between levees as follows: Cairo to White River, 2,000,000 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 660,000 and 11,000 cubic feet per second in Atchafalaya River. As the 1927 floodflow was not confined between levees, maximum discharges recorded do not include entire flow of the 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 representative gages are 60 feet at Cairo, 55 feet at Memphis, 58 feet at Red River Landing, and 23 feet at New Orleans (Carrollton). The river is nontidal above Red River Landing where tidal amplitude 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. The Mississippi River and tributaries project in the alluvial valley between 42-2 MISSISSIPPI RIVER COMMISSION Head of Passes, La., and Cape Girardeau, Mo., provides protection from floods by means of levees, 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 the main stem between Cape Girardeau and Rock Island. When completed, 23,621 square miles will be protected from the Mississippi River project flood. The project also provides for a 12- by 300-foot navigation channel between Baton Rouge, La., and Cairo, Ill.; for salintycontrol 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 main stem Mississippi River improvements are shown in Table 42-A and those for off-main stem tributaries are shown in Table 42-B. Pertinent data on dams and lakes are shown in Table 4-C. Authorizing and incorporating legislation are shown in Tables 42-D and 42-E. Summary of presently estimated Federal cost of authorized improvements is shown in Table 42-F. Construction of the existing projet began in 1928 and has continued throughout ensuing years. Based on the estimated cost of $3,207,483,000 (July 1, 1972 price levels) and actual expenditures through June 30, 1972 of $1,737,695,800, the entire project is about 54 percent complete. Recommended modifications. None. Local cooperation. The Flood Control Act of 1928, as amended, applies. Such requirements have, in general, been complied with by local interests. Terminal facilities. See volume 1 of 2-volume Port Series No. 21, 1969, "Ports on the Gulf Coast of the United States," for Baton Rouge and Lake Charles, La.; Port Series No. 20, 1969, for New Orleans, La.; also folio of Flood Control and Navigation Maps of Mississippi River, Cairo, Ill., to the Gulf of Mexico (39th edition), 1971. Project cost. Total monetary authorizations, including the modifications to June 30, 1972, are $1,948,922,600. Total allotted for flood control, including maintenance charges through August 18, 1941, chargeable under authorizations to June 30, 1972, was $1,746,583,700. (See Table 42-S.) (See also Tables 42-R, 42-T, and 42-U for additional financial statements.) Operations and results during fiscal year. Commission activities: The 285th session was held, October 11-15, 1971, on board the U.S. MV Mississippi en route on the Mississippi River from Cairo, Ill., to Old River, La., Old River to Simmesport, La., and on the Atchafalaya River to Morgan City, Louisiana. The 86th session was held, May 13-20, 1972, on board the U. S. MV Mississippi en route on the Mississippi River from Cairo, Ill., to the Head of Passes, Louisiana. On the river trips, major features of the project were inspected, including bank protection works, contraction works, levees, and general channel conditions, to the extent permitted by river stages. Public meetings were held, at which representatives of local governmental agencies, navigation, levee, commercial, and other interests presented problems pertaining to flood control and navigation. During the 285th session, mat sinking operations at Rosedale, Miss., were inspected and some members inspected the East Atchafalaya Basin Guide Levee from Krotz Springs to Morgan City, Louisiana. During the 286th session the Commission visited the Waterways Experiment Station at Vicksburg, Miss., observed selected model studies, and was briefed on Soils Division and Mobility and Environmental Division activities. The Chief of Engineers, Lt. Gen. Frederick J.

Surveys, gages, and observations: Routine hydrographic surveys, construction surveys, and special surveys and inspections were made as required. Gages were maintained and discharge observations made. Results thereof are presented in detail in annual pamphlets issued by the districts. FLOODS: Memphis District -Mississippi River crest stage of 49.1 feet at Cairo gage on April 27-28, 1972, and maximum discharge of 1,141,000 cubic feet per second, occurred on April 28, 1972 at Hickman, Ky., due to moderate to heavy rains that fell, during March and April, over the lower Missouri River and Ohio River Valley. Vicksburg Distrit -Stages on the Mississippi River were normal during the year. Maximum 42-4 MISSISSIPPI RIVER COMMISSION stages occurred in May with crest stages 10.2 feet below flood stage at Arkansas City, 4.2 feet below flood stage at Vicksburg, and 5.7 feet below flood stage at Natchez. The Ouachita River stages were moderately low during the year. Crest stages occurred in mid-December 1971. They were 1.9 feet below flood stage at Arkadelphia and 3.1 feet below flood stage at Camden, Arkansas. Operation of the flood control works reduced maximum stages by 10.5 feet at Arkadelphia and 12.7 feet at Camden. Minor flooding of short duration occurred at Whaley and Greenwood on Coldwater-Tallahatchie-Yazoo Rivers. Maximum stages were 6.3 feet below flood stage at Swan Lake, 5.1 feet below flood stage at Greenwood, and 2.5 feet below flood stage at Yazoo City. Operation of the flood control works reduced stages an average of about 7 feet on the Coldwater and Tallahatchie Rivers and 3 feet at Greenwood and Yazoo City. The Big Black River crested approximately 11 feet above flood stage during January 1972. New Orleans District -- No flood stages were recorded in the lower Mississippi and Red River Basins. Investigations and reports Surveys and reports prescribed under existing project, and called for by congressional or departmental directives, were made as required. Memphis District expended $50,219 on one navigation study, $315,231 on seven flood control studies, and $40,000 on collection and study of basic data. Vicksburg District expended $111,323 on five flood control studies, and $79,707 on collection and study of basic data. New Orleans District expended $171,429 on two flood control studies and $29,267 on one navigation study. Surveys were made and gages operated and maintained. In addition, $383,800 were expended on the West Texas and Eastern New Mexico Water Import Study to determine the advisability of improvements for exporting, by the most feasible means, surplus water, if any, in the Mississippi River system to water-deficient areas. This investigation is being made in cooperation with the Bureau of Reclamation in its current reconnaissance studies of measures for importing water into west Texas and eastern New Mexico. The Southwestern Division, Corps of Engineers, will make studies for that portion of the area within its boundaries. MISSISSIPPI RIVER-LEVEES Operations and results during fiscal year. Enlargement of dikes and restoration of eroded portions of existing levees; enlargement of existing levees to approved grade and section, 3.3 miles in New Orleans District, and 9.2 miles in Memphis District; construction of levee 'berms, 9.2 miles in Vicksburg District and 4.1 miles in Memphis District. Restoration of damaged wavewash and foreshore protection was accomplished as required. For further details see Tables 42-K, 42-L, and 42-M. Condition at end of fiscal year. There are 1,599 miles of levee now authorized for the Mississippi River below Cape Girardeau, of which 1,568 are in place with 1,378 built to approved grade and section. The Main Stem Levee System consisting of 2,196 miles, of which 1,696 have been completed, includes additional levees and structures along the south bank of Arkansas River (85.4 miles); along the south bank of Red River (59.8 miles, with 41.3 completed); and 451.2 miles in the Atchafalaya River Basin, with 324.8 essentially completed (191.8 to grade and section and 133.0 to grade only). Graveled or hard-surfaced roads have been constructed on 1,002 miles of these levees. (Tables 42-K, 42-L, and 42-M.) Below Baton Rouge, in New Orleans District, about 134 miles of levee are protected against river wavewash by timber structures or leveeslope pavement. 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, construction of berms for levee stabilization and seepage control, levee wavewash protection where necessary, drainage structures, and roadways for proper inspection and maintenance. Status of levees authorized under provisions of section 6, 1928 act is summarized in Table 42-N. MISSISSIPPI RIVER-CHANNEL IMPROVEMENTS Operations and results during fiscal year. Engineering studies: Continued a research program for development of materials and more effective and economical procedures for placing and stabilizing Mississippi River in a suitable alinement. Bank revetment and dikes: Construction of 17.5 miles of new bank revetment and 1.8 miles of reinforcement of existing revetment along the Mississippi River was completed by Government plant and hired labor, and construction of 7.8 miles of new dikes was completed by contract. Reinforcement of about 4.3 miles of existing foreshore protection at four locations were completed by contract. Further data concerning this work are shown by districts in Tables 42-H, 42-I, and 42-J. Dredging: Work included dredging 42,740,000 cubic yards for channel and harbor maintenance and channel construction and revetment. Minimum channel depth of 9 feet was maintained. .42-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Dredging shown in Table 42-G was done with the following plant: New Orleans District, two contract cutterhead dredges and one Government- owned dustpan dredge (on loan); Vicksburg District, one Government-owned dustpan dredge, two Government-owned dustpan dredges (on loan), and one leased cutterhead dredge; and Memphis District, three Government-owned dustpan dredges and one leased cutterhead dredge. (See also Tables 42-0, 42-P, and 42-Q.) Other work performed in the interest of navigation, supplementing maintenance dredging on Mississippi River between Cairo, Ill., and Baton Rouge, La., included removal of snags, wrecks, and obstructions; issuance of bulletins by the Vicksburg District providing information on available high-water velocities at selected locations; maintaining bulletin boards showing daily gage readings at regular MRC gages; and contact pilot service furnishing navigation with latest information and advice on channel conditions and obtaining their views as to needs of navigation interests. Cost of this work is given in Table 42-R. Condition at end of fiscal year. 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 170 miles. However, current velocities increased the attack on the banks and the river began to regain its length. As a result, the net shortening between 1933 and 1962 was 114 miles of the theoretical 170-mile cutoff. There are now in place 643 miles of operative bank revetment and 135 miles of dikes on the Mississippi and lower Ohio Rivers as listed on Tables 42-H, 42-I, and 42-J. This amount of channel stabilization should prevent the river from regaining much more of its length due to meandering. A navigation channel 9 by 300 feet is being accomplished by revetment and dikes and maintained by dredging as required during the low-water season. Due to growing effectiveness of channel improvement program, average maintenance dredging requirements are steadily being reduced, and an increase in navigable depth is being obtained. Approximately 93 miles of foreshore protection have been constructed along the lower Mississippi River. NEW ORLEANS DISTRICT ATCHAFALAYA BASIN, LA. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work by hired labor: Real estate activities and planning for construction were continued.

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 Harbor Act, as amended (33 USC 426)), and directed that its functions other than the review of reports of investigations made concerning erosion and protection of shores of coastal and lake waters, be vested with the Coastal Engineering Research Center. The report review function was transferred to the 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 the water resources study program of the Corps. The authorizing act also provided that the functions of the Coastal Engineering Research Center be conducted with the 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 1972 the following served as members of the Coastal Engineering Research Board: Major General Francis P. Koisch, U. S. Army, Director of Civil Works, Office Chief of Engineers, President; Major General John W. Morris, U. S. Army, Director of Civil Works, Office Chief of Engineers, President; Major General Richard H. Free, U. S. Army, Division Engineer, South Atlantic Division; Major General Daniel A. Raymond, U. S. Army, Division Engineer, South Atlantic Division; Major General Ernest Graves, Division Engineer, North Central Division; Major General Frank A. Camm, U. S. Army, Division Engineer, South Pacific Division; Dean Morrough P. O'Brien, Dean Emeritus, College of Engineering, University of California at Berkeley; Dr. Arthur T. Ippen, Institute Professor, Massachusetts Institute of Technology; and Dr. Robert G. Dean, Chairman, Department of Coastal and Oceanographic Engineering, University of Florida. Lieutenant Colonel Don S. McCoy was Executive Secretary to the Board and Director of the Center, replacing Lieutenant Colonel Edward M. Willis in July 1971. The Coastal Engineering Research Center is the principal research and development facility of the Corps in the field of coastal engineering. The mission of the Center is to: a. Conceive, plan and conduct research and development in the field of coastal engineering, in order to provide a better understanding of coastal processes, winds, waves, tides, current, and materials as they apply to navigation, recreation, flood and storm protection, shore and beach erosion control, shore structures, and offshore islands and structures; b. Conceive, plan and conduct research on the effects of the coastal activities of the Corps of Engineers on the ecology of the coastal zone; c. Collect and publish information and data concerning coastal phenomena and research projects which are useful to the Corps of Engineers and to the public; d. Assist in the planning and design of coastal works, including: determination of probable effects of such works on adjacent shores, establishment of hurricane protection criteria, and evaluation of the stability, durability and effectiveness of proposed coastal navigation improvements and other coastal works; e. Assist in the review, for technical adequacy, of studies, plans, and specifications for beach erosion control and other coastal engineering works; f. Provide specialized consulting services to other elements of the Corps of Engineers and, as directed, to other Federal agencies; g. Provide specialized training in coastal engineering to other public agencies. Operations and results during fiscal year. The staff of Coastal Engineering Research Center reviewed 31 reports for technical adequacy, of which 19 concerned projects, 9 concerned beach erosion control prbjects, 1 concerned a combined beach erosion-hurricane protection project, and 2 concerned combined beach erosion control- navigation projects. In keeping with the responsibility for publishing information and data concerning coastal phenomena, a number of technical reports by staff members were published by CERC or in other technical journals during the year and others are currently being edited. One Technical Memorandum was issued by Coastal Engineering Research Center and 2 are in preparation to go to press. Two technical manuscripts were published in the "Miscellaneous Papers" series and one is currently being edited. Eight technical papers by CERC sta published elsewhere in the technical press were 43-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 issued as CERC Reprints. The Center's major compendium on shore protection (Technical Report No. 4 "Shore Protection Planning and Design") went out of print and was reprinted in FY 72. A completely revised and updated edition of this report, to be now entitled "Shore Protection Manual," is in preparation. Work was also begun on preparation of a broader scope compendium entitled "Coastal Engineering Manual." The staff worked on several major research or engineering projects for various agencies and prepared reports thereon. A number of lesser studies were also 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, and another on inlet characteristics and hydraulics was given for Corps personnel, as was.a special course on hurricane surge estimation; lectures were given by staff members to universities and to technical and non-technical groups. Members of the staff participated in a number of committees of various technical societies. A staff member served on the Permanent International Commission of the Permanent International Association of Navigation Congresses; another member served on the Federal Committee on Wood Protection, under the sponsorship of the National Academy of Science; research to supplement staff activities was carried out at universities and with institutions and commercial concerns under approximately 57 contracts; funds were supplied other Corps offices for data collection; and funds were also provided to the Waterways Experiment Station to assist in carrying out a laboratory portion of the generalized tidal inlet study and to continue work on mathematical modelling of harbor surging and on the study of underwater soil mechanics. At the end of the year work and studies by the staff were in progress in such areas as: characteristics of ocean waves as determined by actual measurement at a number of field locations; characteristics of caostal inlets; analysis of wave spectra; sources of sand for use as beach fill; durability of various pile coatings in the surf zone; relation of longshore transport to incident waves techniques for measuring longshore transport rates; embankment stability under wave action; effectiveness of vegetation for dune stabilization; coastal siltation problems peculiar to the Alaskan environment; use of remote sensing in coastal studies; geomorphology of the Atlantic coastal zone; ecological effects of offshore dredging; correlation of wave climate and beach deformation; revision and updating of Technical Report No. 4, to be now titled "Shore Protection Manual"; use of the middle ground shoal area as a deposition trap in sand bypassing; evaluation of completed coastal works; use of remote sensors for coastal purposes; and others. Research work at the Coastal Engineering Research Center, or being done at other institutions for the Center, was financed primarily by Coastal Engineering Research and Development Funds, General Expense Funds and Engineering Studies Funds. For FY 1972 appropriated and alotted funds in these three categories amounted to $4,125,000, $283,000, and $150,000, respectively. Reimbursable work done for others provided another $257,000. 43-2 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 Francisco, 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 extending from crest of Sierra Nevada on the east to that of Coast Range on the west, and from Mount Shasta and Pitt River Basin on the north to Tehachapi Mountains on the south. These riv- Navigation ers empty into head of Suisun Bay ultimately discharging into Pacific Ocean through connecting bays and straits and the Golden Gate. Duties of the Commission comprise regulation of hydraulic 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. 1.

REGULATION OF HYDRAULIC MINING AND PREPARATION OF PLANS Location. Operations largely limited to territory between Mount Lassen on the north and Yosemite Valley on the south, on western watershed of Sierra Nevada. (See Geological Survey sheets for the area, 25 in number.) Existing project. Provides for regulating hydraulic mining operations, planning improvement of conditions upon Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers and their tributaries affected by such operations, and preparation of plans to enable hydraulic mining to be resumed in their drainage areas. In addition, the Secretary of Army is authorized to enter into contracts to supply storage for water and use of outlet facilities from debris-storage reservoirs for domestic and irrigation purposes and power development, upon such conditions of delivery, use, and payment as he may approve. Applications of prospective miners are fully investigated by California Debris Commission and permits to operate * All cost and financial statements for projects are listed at the end of this chapter. All other tables are referenced in text and also appear at the end of this chapter. 44-1 IMPROVEMENTS Page REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 are issued to those who provide satisfactory debris- restraining basins by construction of suitable dams where necessary or agree to make payment for storage in Government-constructed, debris- restraining reservoirs constructed under act of June 19, 1934, as set forth below. For location and description of Government-constructed, debris- restraining reservoirs for general hydraulic mining see Improvement 2. (See table 44-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Mineowners must bear all expenses incurred in complying with orders of the Commission for regulation of mining and restraint of debris. Operations and results during fiscal year. Inspected hydraulic mines to determine compliances of mineowners with requirements of license issued. Administrative work overlaps that of improvements 2, 3, and 4, hereunder, and that of Sacramento District. Condition at end of fiscal year. The Commission received 1,292 applications for hydraulic mining licenses; 3 mines are licensed, none of which use storage behind Government debris dams. Work remaining is, in general, continuation of above or similar operations. 2. SACRAMENTO RIVER AND TRIBUTARIES, CALIF. (DEBRIS CONTROL) Location. Project reservoirs are to be constructed in watersheds of Yuba, Bear, and American Rivers, Calif. (See Geological Survey sheets for basin areas, seven in number.) Existing project. Designed to permit resumption of hydraulic mining on a substantial scale and provides for construction of reservoirs for purpose of retaining mining debris. North Fork project is on North Fork of American River about 5 miles northeast of city of Auburn and 40 miles northeast of Sacramento. Dam is 155 feet high, 620 feet long, and reservoir has debris storage capacity of 26 million cubic yards. Harry L. Englebright project is on Yuba River about 20 miles northeast of city of Marysville. Dam is 280 feet high, 1,142 feet long, and reservoir has a debris storage capacity of 118 million cubic yards. Completed reservoirs are also utilized for recreation purposes; initial facilities were provided in fiscal year 1959. Recreation areas at Harry L. Englebright Dam are maintained by the Corps. Recreation areas at North Fork Dam are maintained and operated by Auburn Recreation Park and Parkway District. Total Federal cost of new work for construction of these reservoirs was $4,646,872, including $40,000 for recreation facilities. Cost of recreation areas at North Fork Dam was $57,500. It is estimated (July 1972) that improvements to recreation areas will cost $1,- 075,000 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 $1,820,000 (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 November 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 reservoir from taxes on material hydraulically mined, under licenses, and impounded in these reservoirs. Improvements made to facilities at North Fork Dam by Auburn Recreation Park and Parkway District under a lease agreement with the Secretary of the Army and Auburn Boat Clubs (concessionaire) at an estimated cost of $46,000 since September 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 December 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, 1972, amounts to $522,100; these funds are paid to California Debris Commission and deposited for return to the Treasury. License No. 2246, effective April 9, 1970 (date New Narrows powerplant put in operation) was issued by Federal Power Commission to Yuba County Water Agency for hydroelectric power development of Yuba River by the company upstream from Englebright Dam. Under provisions of Contract No. DA-04-167-CIVENG-66-95 with Yuba County Water Agency, payment is to be made to the Federal Government of $100,000 per year for no more than 50 years. First payment (partial) of $73,151 was made April 1, 1971; total payment through June 30, 1972, amounts to $173,151. These funds are paid to Sacramento District and deposited for return to the Treasury. Operations and resiults during fiscal year. Maintenance and operation activities continued at North Fork Dam at a cost of $25,091; and at Harry L. Englebright Dam at a cost of $68,918, including recreation facilities ($33,922). 44-2 CALIFORNIA DEBRIS COMMISSION Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of dams was initiated in 1937; North Fork project was completed and in use at end of fiscal year 1939; and Harry L. Englebright project was completed in January 1941. The two debris- control structures are in good condition. Public use of these reservoir recreation areas greatly overtaxes present capacities. 3. TREATMENT OF YUBA RIVER DEBRIS SITUATION-RESTRAINING BARRIERS, CALIF. 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 Sacramento 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 detriment 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 confined 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 California. (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 rehabilitation cost. During the December 24, 1964, floodflows on the Yuba River, the rehabilitated Daguerre Point Dam sustained considerable damage. (See 1965 Annual Report, p. 1647 "Operations 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 and fish facilities was completed in October 1965 at a cost of $447,808 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 Survey 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 operations. 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 effective 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 $223,- 904, respectively, all of which was required contribution by State of California. State of California must contribute annually an amount equal to the Federal allotment for maintenance. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Operations included condition and operation studies, and preparation of plans and specifications, by hired labor. Bank restoration and stone protection was accomplished along right and left banks Yuba River, various locations upstream from Marysville, at a contract cost of $22,652 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 tailing fields adjacent to project training walls in upper 7-mile reach of project. Initial rehabilitation of Daguerre Point Dam begun in July 1963 was completed in December 1964. Contract for permanent rehabilitation of structure was initiated in July and completed in October 1965. Flood Control 4. SACRAMENTO RIVER, CALIF. Location. Works covered by this improvement are on Sacramento River and tributaries in north-central California from Collinsville to Ord Bend, a distance of 184 miles. 44-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Previous project. For details see page 1815 of Annual Report for 1917, page 1995 of Annual Report for 1938, and page 2262 of Annual Report for 1907. Existing project. Sacramento River flood control project is a comprehensive plan of flood control for Sacramento River and lower reaches of its principal tributaries. Improvement extends along Sacramento River from Ord Bend in Glenn County, Calif., 184 miles downstream to its mouth at Collinsville at upper end of Suisun Bay, and comprises a system of levees, overflow weirs, drainage pumping plants, and flood bypass channels or floodways designed to carry surplus floodwaters without inundation of valley lands. About 980 miles of levee construction with an average height of 15 feet, and 98 miles of bank protection are involved in project. For further details, see Annual Report for 1962, page 2115. (See table 44-B for authorizing legislation.) Estimated (July 1972) cost for existing project (exclusive of above supplemental levee improvements), including new work and maintenance, is $163,640,000 of which $68,640,000 is Federal cost and $95 million non-Federal ($90,050,562 for lands and damages and relocations and $4,- 949,438 required contributed 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 California and other local interests to supplement project levee construction. 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, respectively, a total of $3,080,000, plus U.S. costs, for construction. Operation and maintenance of completed project will be responsibility 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.), 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 indicated 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. Operations and results during fiscal year. Regular funds: Engineering continued. Reconstruction of levee, right bank Yolo bypass and left bank Cache Slough with rented equipment and hired labor, $15,712. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of existing project 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 Bypasses; construction of two main bypasses or floodways and secondary 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 enlargement of Sacramento River below Cache Slough.

Waterways Experiment Station is a Class II activity of the Chief of Engineers operating under the staff supervision of the Director of Civil Works in accordance with General Orders No. 9, 1949. It was originally established as an hydraulic laboratory, 18 June 1929, under the President, Mississippi River Commission, by direction of the Chief of Engineers. Colonel Ernest D. Peixotto, Corps of Engineers, is Director. The organization is the largest laboratory complex of the Corps of Engineers for research, testing and development. It is engaged in research and engineering investigations in the scientific fields of hydraulics, soil mechanics, concrete, expedient construction, nuclear and conventional weapons effects, nuclear and chemical explosives excavation, vehicle mobility, environmental relationships, engineering geology, and pavements. On a reimbursable basis, Waterways Experiment Station performs basic and applied research in these and related fields, develops methods and techniques, tests materials and equipment, and provides consulting services in its specialized fields of competence. Such services include essential technical support in instrumentation, electronic computation and data processing. Subject to approval by the Chief of Engineers, studies and investigations may be undertaken for other agencies. The Waterways Experiment Station also maintains an extensive scientific and engineering reference library to serve specialized needs of the Corps of Engineers and issues publications of general interest (including translations) which can aid materially in eliminating duplication of effort throughout the Corps in the conduct of experimental studies; operates DOD Information Analysis Centers in the fields of Pavements and Soils Trafficability, Concrete Technology, Hydraulic Engineering, and Soil Mechanics; the Corps of Engineers' Engineering Computer Programs Library (including audio-visual training aids); the Corps of Engineers' motion picture lending library and the Corps' Guide Specifications service. During Fiscal Year 1972, 175 reports of individual studies conducted at the Waterways Experiment Station, 6 in-house translations and 18 transactions produced commercially, 13 contract reports, and 40 miscellaneous publications for the Waterways Experiment Station and other offices were distributed to Corps offices and interested outside agencies. In addition, editing and printing units completed about 2,735 miscellaneous assignments for the Waterways Experiment Station and other offices. Operations and results during fiscal year. Work accomplished at the Waterways Experiment Station is, in general, initially financed by a revolving fund, reimbursement being obtained directly from agencies for whom work is performed. Cost for operation of Station for Fiscal Year 1972 was $26,231,613 of which $24,351,780 was charged to establishments served for research investigations and related services, and $1,879,833 for permanent improvements and equipment. Of the reimbursable work, $9,511,502 was charged to civil funds, $14,577,972 to military funds, and $262,306 to nongovernmental agencies. Work includes $1,840,202 performed by contract. Total cost incurred for operation of the Waterways Experiment Station to June 30, 1972 was $311,- 021,425 of which $292,719,099 represents reimbursable cost and $18,302,326 the unamortized cost of permanent improvements and equipment. 45-1 PERMANENT INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF NAVIGATION CONGRESSES The United States by act of June 28, 1902, appropriated $3,000 annually for support and maintenance of the Permanent International Commission of Navigation Congresses and for payment of the actual expenses of property accredited national delegates of the United States to meetings of the Congresses and Commission. An increase in the appropriation of $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, $2,700 is paid by the American Section to the International Association in Brussels, Belgium. The objective of the Association-to promote the progress of inland and maritime navigation- is met by holding International Congresses and publishing technical bulletins and other documents. The Congresses 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 individuals. Member governments are represented at the Congresses and at meetings of the Permanent International Commission by delegates, the number of official delegates to be determined by 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 payment of dues. The affairs of the Association are managed by the Permanent International Commission composed of delegates from the supporting governments. The National Commission constitutes the governing body of the American Section and the U. S. members of the Permanent International Commission. The Director of Civil Works, Office of the Chief of Engineers, U. S. Army, and the Resident Member, Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors, are the ex-officio Chairman and Secretary, respectively, of the National Commission. The Secretary handles all administrative matters of the American Section. During Fiscal Year 1972, National Commissioners were: MG F. P. Koisch, USA ex-officio Chairman, until 3 April 1972, when he was replaced by MG John W. Morris; COL A. D. Wilder, CE, USA ex-officio Secretary; COL Carl H. Bronn, USA (Ret); Mr. Braxton Carr: RADM Roderick Y. Edwards, USCG (Ret); Mr. Minard I. Foster; Mr. Mark S. Gurnee; Mr. J. W. Hershey; Mr. Duane Orr; and Mr. Thorndike Saville. The annual meeting of the Permanent International Commission was held in Palermo, Sicily on 6 June 1972 and was attended by the ten National Commissioners. In addition, MG C. G. Holle, USA (Ret), and BG H. D. Vogel, USA (Ret), Honorary Members of the Commission, sat with the American Delegation. Membership of the American Section on 30 June 1972 totaled 684, consisting of 620 individuals and 64 corporate members. A total of 15 new individual members and one life member were added during the fiscal year, and 25 individual members and three corporate members deleted either through resignations, death, or non-payment of dues. P Federal funds from annual appropriations were estimated as follows: annual U. S. contribution to association, $2,700; expenses of representatives to meetings, $9,579; publications, $109; and translations, $250; for a total of $12,638. 46-1 INVESTIGATIONS AND SUPERVISION OF PROJECTS UNDER FEDERAL WATER POWER ACT The Federal Water Power Act of June 10, 1920, created the Federal Power Commission, composed of the 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 Commission 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 an act of June 23, 1930, entitled "An Act to reorganize the Federal Power Commission," sections 1 and 2 of the 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. The necessity of performing work through the Departments of War, Interior, and Agriculture was removed and the Commission authorized to appoint such officers and employees as necessary in executing its functions. By title II, Public Utility Act of 1935, the original Federal Water Power Act was made Part I of the 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 the Secretary of the Army. There is further provision whereby any person or corporation intending to construct hydroelectric project works in or along any stream over which Congress has jurisdiction, other than navigable waters, shall file a declaration of intention for the purpose of ascertaining whether or not jurisdictivmm of the Federal Power Commission will attach. The following work of an engineering nature was assigned and accomplished during the fiscal year: 24 plans approved by Chief of Engineers and Secretary of the Army in accordance with sec. 4 (3) of the Federal Water Power Act; 52 reports submitted on applications for preliminary permits or licenses or amendments thereto and reports on licensed projects subject to recapture; and supervision of 7 licensed projects for the Commission Necessary expenses in excess of nominal amounts for transportation and subsistance of personnel engaged in investigations and cost of supervision under provisions of the Federal Power Act are paid from appropriations made for-the Federal Power Commission. All other costs of administration of laws in question are paid from funds available for general expense of the Corps of Engineers. No expenses were paid from appropriations made for the Federal Power Commission during the fiscal year. 47-1 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS IMPROVEMENTS TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.

INTERNATIONAL BOUNDARY WATER BOARDS. In order to carry out United States obligations under international agreements, the Office, Chief of Engineers and several Divisions and Districts of the Corps with jurisdiction over areas bordering Canada, have representation on numerous Boards and Committees. The majority of these boards are established by the International Joint Commission (IJC) as empowered in accordance with the provisions of the Boundary Waters Treaty of 1909 between the United States and Great Britain (Canada). IJC boards fall into two broad categories; boards of control, which are more or less permanent; and engineering or technical boards, which are usually dissolved after completing their assignment. In addition to boards created by the Commission other boards and committees are created by treaties or other informal arrangement in matters concerned with the water resources, and the members report directly to the Government or establishing agency. A listing of these international boards having Corps of Engineers membership follows: 2A. THE 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 Co. and the Sprague Falls Manufacturing Co., Ltd., across the St. Croix River at Grand Falls, Maine, and subsequent agreements reached between the Governments of the United States and Canada. The Board is charged with the duty of formulating and administering rules under which the power plant and accessories are to be operated to prevent as nearly as possible a level of water at the dam higher than 203.5 feet (mean sea level datum), and to secure for 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 October 2, 1934, the Commission issued an Order approving the reconstruction of the dam by the Canadians Cottons, Ltd., extending across the St. Croix River from Milltown, New Brunswick, Canada, to Milltown, Maine that contained the following conditions: (a) the 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 being replaced; (b) during floods the sluiceways of the dam shall be sufficiently open to insure passage of the river flow; and (c) the operation of the dam, insofar as is necessary to insure the observance of the provisions of the Order, be under the supervision of the Board of Control. On November 19, 1965, the Commission directed the Board, in addition to the duties previously assigned, to carry out the duties contained in the Order of Approval dated October 15, 1965, for the construction of the storage dam at Vanceboro. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Colonel F. P. Bane, Division Engineer, U.S. Army Engineer Division, New England, Waltham, Massachusetts, United States Member, and Mr. J. E. Peters, District Engineer, Water Survey of Canada, Department of the Environment, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canadian Member. Operations during fiscal year. Supervision was maintained and inspection was made by the Canadian and the United States members and their representatives to insure that the Orders of the Commission were followed. On July 20, 1971, and June 14, 1972, the Board of Control inspected the St. Croix River Basin and met with officers of the New Brunswick Electric Power Commission at Milltown, New Brunswick, Canada, and the Georgia-Pacific Corporation in Woodland, Maine. A period of limited rainfall in the summer of 1971 lowered the levels of the upstream reservoir system and complaints from the owners and operators of sporting camps located around Spednic Lake were raised. These complaints were related in the Board's annual report to the Commission. The Commission acting upon these complaints authorized a hydrologic study of Vanceboro Dam, Spednic Lake and the St. Croix River Basin's system regulation orders. This study will be jointly pursued by the United States and Canadian members. In the spring, Georgia Pacific Corporation began extensive rehabilitation work on the Woodland Dam. Routine inspections were made by field staff members to verify the accuracy of the flow and level data submitted by the reporting agencies. 2B. INTERNATIONAL SAINT JOHN RIVER ENGINEERING BOARD Construction and duties. The Board was established September 28, 1950 by the International Joint Commission to determine if the waters of the Saint John River system could be more beneficially conserved and regulated. The Board's interim report was submitted to the Commission in April 1953. It outlined several projects, the development of which would be practical and in the public interest. The Commission submitted its interim report to the two governments in 48-2 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS April 1954. Since then the services of the Board have been retained to advise the Commission, keeping the latter informed at least annually on any resource developments being undertaken or proposed by entities in either country. Members of the Board for fiscal year. The Board consists of four members, two from each country. The Canadian members, Mr. J. D. Mc- Leod, Senior Engineer, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, Ottawa, Ontario, Chairman, Canadian Section and Mr. J. E. Bright, Regional Director, Atlantic Region, Department of Public Works, Halifax, Nova Scotia. The United States members were Mr. E. L. Hendricks, Chief Hydrologist, U.S. Geological Survey, Washington, D. C., Chairman, United States Section and Mr. F. L. Thrall, Engineer, Planning Division, U. S. Army, Office, Chief of Engineers, Washington, D. C.. Operations during fiscal year. The Board did not meet during the year, but it reviewed developments within the basin and reported in October 1971, to the Commission on activities of New Brunswick Power Commission, unchanged status of the Dickey-Lincoln School project, status of sewage treatment facilities in the basin, water quality and uses classification on the river by the State of Maine, status of small boat hydrographic charting, and that collection of basic water supply and quality data and related hydrologic investigation were continued. The Board recommended in their October 1971 report to disband the Board as all annual report information was readily available elsewhere. The Commission disbanded the Board on October 7, 1971. 2C. 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, Conventry, 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, the international board composed of one engineer each from the United and Canada was appointed by the two Governments to consider the matter and submit a joint report to each Government as to the level or levels at which Lake Memphremagog should, so far as possible, be maintained. At the request of local interests consideration of the problem was suspended 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 recommended 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 678.98 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 by Governments on August 12, 1960 as a result of a complaint on July 20, 1959 by a resident of Newport, Vt., concerning high lake levels due to alleged improper operation of the power plant. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. J. D. McLeod, Senior Engineer, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, for Canada and Col. J. W. Barnett, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer, District, New York for the United States. Operations during fiscal year. Supervision of the levels was maintained. The Water Resources Branch of the U.S. Geological Survey records daily readings of the elevation of Lake Memphremagog at Newport, Vermont. Datum of the gage is 673.00 feet above mean sea level, U. S. Geological Survey 1929 adjustment which is 0.30 feet higher than the comparable Geodetic Survey of Canada, 1923 adjustment. The upper limit of the recommended lake level was exceeded for most of the month of May 1972 (mean 0:53 feet above the recommended level) and the first half of June. However, no complaints of flooding were received by the Corps of Engineers or the Vermont Department of Water Resources and it is therefore presumed that no serious damages occurred as a result. A maximum lake level occurred in May which was 1.65 feet above the recommended level. 2D. INTERNATIONAL LAKE CHAMPLAIN BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was organized pursuant to the provisions of the Order of Approval, dated June 10, 1937, of the International Joint Commission, approving construction and operation of certain remedial works in Richelieu River at Fryers Island, Quebec. The Board submitted a report to the Commission dated May 4, 1939 soon after completion of the Fryers Island Dam. 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. N. P. Persoage, Water Planning and Operations Branch, Department of the Environment, for 48-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Canada, and Col. J. W. Barnett, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, New York, for the United States. Operations during fiscal year. The widening of the existing canal immediately downstream of the lock at St. Jean, at Fryers Island and in the vicinity of the auto-route highway crossing over the river between Chambly and Fryers Island dam, has been completed. No work has been done during the past year on the improvement of existing locks. Work commenced on the building of a guard gate at the entrance to the canal above the lock at St. Jean in the winter of 1971-72 and will be continued next winter. An ad hoc committee was appointed by the governments of Canada and the Province of Quebec early in 1972 to study the feasibility for implementing works in the Richelieu River for the improvement of navigation and the reduction of flood problems on the upper Richelieu River and Missisquoi Bay. This committee will also consider opportunities for the improvement of other water resources such as recreational boating and water quality in the study area and will report to the respective governments. If these studies were to result in recommendations for implementing regulation of Lake Champlain, consideration would have to be given to the possible need for changes in the 1937 Order of the Commission. Information and complaints have been received from St. Albans and Isle La Motte, Vermont, and Whitehall, New York, of flood damages caused by high lake levels. An informal investigation was made by representatives of the New York District to determine if the high lake levels were caused by improper operation of structures on the Richelieu River in Canada. It was determined that the gates at the Fryers Island Dam have been left completely open and hence this structure could not possibly have been the cause of the high water in Lake Champlain which presumably was caused by heavy rainfall in the watershed and the natural channel of the Richelieu River for which the Canadian government is in no way responsible. 2E. INTERNATIONAL ST. LAWRENCE RIVER BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was established December 16, 1953 pursuant to the provisions of the Order of Approval dated October 29, 1952, of the International Joint Commission for the construction of certain works for the development of power in the International Rapids Section of the St. Lawrence River. The Commission instructed the Board to perform the duties assigned to it by the Order of Approval. These responsibilities included the following items: (a) The Board 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 on Ontario in order to furnish accurate records relating to water levels and the discharge of water through the works and the regulations 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 Commission's Orders relating to water levels and regulation of the discharge of water from Lake Ontario and the flow of water through the International Rapids Section are complied with, and that Ontario-Hydro and PASNY shallduly observe any direction given them by the Board of Control for the purpose of insuring such compliance. The Board shall report to the Commission at such time sas the Commission may determine; (c) In addition to the reports to be made by the Commission in accordance with the terms of the Orders of Approval, the Board was requested to report to the Commission semi-annually and 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; and (d) 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 Board of Control. Members of the Board for fiscal year. The Canadian members were: Mr. D. M. Ripley, Director, Marine Hydraulics Branch, Ministry of Transport, Chairman, Canadian Section; Mr. J. B. Bryce, Hydraulic Engineer, Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario; Mr. Y. DeGuise, Commissioner, Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Quebec; and Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment. The United States members were: The Division Engineer, U.S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, Chairman, U. S. Section; Mr. Frank Thomas, Chief, Division of Licensed Projects, Federal Power Commission, until September 17, 1971 when he was replaced by Mr. Desloge Brown, Head, Section of Inspections, Federal Power Commission; Mr. R. D. Conner, Assistant Resident Manager, Power Authority of the State of New York; and Mr. F. F. Snyder, Hydraulic Engineer, U. S. Army, Office, Chief of Engineers, (Retired). Major General E. Graves was the Division Engineer, U.S. Army Engineer Division, North Central during the year. Operations during fiscal year. The Board met in Ottawa, Ontario on October 4, 1971 and pre- 48-4 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS sented its Thirty-Sixth Progress Report to the Commission on October 5, 1971; met in Alexandria, Virginia on April 11, 1972 and presented its Thirty-Seventh Progress Report to the Commission on April 12, 1972. The Board approved the Thirty-Fourth and Thirty-Fifth reports by its St. Lawrence Committee on River Gaging, a Committee which provides and maintains a comprehensive program for recording river levels and flows. The Power Entities have installed the necessary gages requested to date and the required records are being obtained. The Committee keeps the Board advised regarding the gaging program. It was decided, effective January 1, 1972, that flows diverted to the Massena and Cornwall municipal water supply facilities, as well as flows diverted to the Raisin Region Conservation Authority, will be reported as part of the daily record of Lake Ontario outflow. A river meter measurements standard procedure for comparison with the rating of the Moses- Saunder Generating Station has been approved by the Board. This procedure of discharge measurements was carried out in June 1972. The levels and outflows have continued to be regulated in accordance with the Commission's directive of April 8, 1960 that, commencing on April 20, 1960, the St. Lawrence project be so operated as to conform to the criteria and other requirements of the Commission's Orders of October 1952 and July 2, 1956. Regulation Plan 1958-D is the plan currently approved the the Commission for use by the Board in consulting with the Power Entities and other interests concerned in compliance with the criteria and other requirements of the Orders of Approval. The supplies to the Great Lakes have remained generally above normal during the reporting period. There were no violations of the approved range of stage during the reporting period. At the Board meeting on April 5, 1971, the Regulation Representatives were instructed to prepare an addendum to the "Operational Guides" with respect to positive deviations from Plan 1958-D and refer it to the Working Committee for review and report to the Board. At the October 4, 1971 meeting, the Board accepted the proposed addendum and submitted it to the Commission for approval. The Commission approved this addendum and notified the Board by letters dated January 21 and 24, 1972. Under its discretionary authority, with continuing guidance from the Commission and with advice from the interests involved, the Board 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 minimum flows under the present regulation plan; in other instances water has been taken from storage. Peaking tests were continued throughout the period and ponding was authorized during the non-navigation season. Interim reports from the Power Entities showing effects of the flow variations on water levels upstream and downstream of the Barnhart Island Powerhouse were received regularly by the Board in accordance with one of the conditions permitting the tests. There has been no system emergency requiring additional flow during the winter season. The official closing date for the 1971 navigation season in the Montreal-Lake Ontario Section of the Seaway was December 12. Due to the heavy volume of ocean vessels and unusually mild weather, this section remained open beyond that date on a day-to-day basis. During the week ending December 17, 1971, the Board exercised its discretionary authority by approving a request for an increase in flow of 3,000 cfs-weeks to assist in retardation of ice formation in the Seaway facilities near Montreal, since some ships were still in the system. The last commercial vessel transit through the Eisenhower Lock occurred on December 20. The Power Entities reported that all ice booms in the International Rapids Section were installed, except for the sections left open for commercial navigation, on December 4. Final closure of all sections was completed on December 31 following notification to the Power Entities that all vessels planning to winter at the National Harbor Board Elevator at Prescott, Ontario, had arrived. Winter operations began on December 29, 1971, when the flow was reduced from 242,000 cfs to 230,000 cfs in response to a request from Hydro-Quebec for reduced flows to assist in formation of an ice cover in the Beauharnois Canal. Above normal air temperatures during December and the first two weeks in January were not conducive to good ice cover formation and, as a result, there was only slack water ice in the International Section. A thin cover quickly formed to Ogden Island on January 16, progressed by January 21 to Chrysler Park, and began to extend upstream by January 24. On January 25 winds gusting up to 60 miles per hour produced a severe seiche in the International Rapids Section. As a result, ice below Ogdensburg- Prescott moved downstream and created a rough and thickened cover in the Morrisburg- Waddington channels. Head losses between Cardinal and Long Sault Dam reflected the increased retardation from this rough and broken cover. By the end of January, the head of the cover had extended to just above Ogden Island. 48-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 From there to Ogdesnburg, the main channel remained open except for a small accumulation in the Galop booms. On February 4-5, approximately 18 inches of snow fell on the unusually large areas of open water. Apparently, the resultant slush moved downstream to pack beneath the existing ice cover in the Three Points-Ogden Island .reach. These events were followed by an increase in head losses to a point that, on February 8, low water levels created problems at the municipal water treatment facilities at Ingleside and at a domestic and an industrial water supply intake at Massena. The problems were alleviated be reductions in flow from computed flows to assist in raising the levels in Lake St. Lawrence. It was concluded that the unusually mild weather in January had delayed the normal ice coverage and that the large areas of open water remaining when the large snowfall occurred caused this condition to develop. The ice booms were first opened on March 20, 1972 to permit the upbround transit of an ice breaker and on April 1, the ice breaker moved into Lake St. Lawrence. The navigation channel was cleared of ice booms on April 13 and the navigation season began on April 16. 2F. INTERNATIONAL NIAGARA BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was established August 19, 1953 by the International Joint Commission to supervise the construction, maintenance and operation of the Niagara Remedial Works, recommended by the Commission in its 1953 report on the "Preservation and Enhancement of Niagara Falls." Members of the Board for fiscal year. The United States members were the Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, Chairman, U. S. Section; and Mr. F. Thomas, Chief, Division of Licensed Projects, Federal Power Commission, until September 17, 1971 when he was replaced by Mr. D. Brown, Head, Section of Inspections, Federal Power Commission. Major General E. Graves was Division Engineer during the year. The Canadian members were Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, Chairman, Canadian Section and Mr. G. Millar, Chief Engineer, Harbours and Rivers Engineering Branch, Department of Public Works. Operations during fiscal year. By letter of 20 July 1971, the Board forwarded to the Power Entities the report entitled "Use of Measuring Section above Robert Moses Tailrace for Continuing Measurements of Flow Through the Maid of the Mist Pool", and requested their cooperation in carrying out the proposed program by providing the necessary funds. Various government agencies were advised of the proposed summer of 1972 erection of the cableway and no objections were received. The cableway will furnish a means for the direct measurement of flow past the Ashland Avenue Gage and provide for a more accurate monitoring of the total flow over the Falls. The Board received the Working Committee report entitled "Report Concerning the Effect of Power Operations on the Levels of the Grass Island Pool and Lake Erie" concerning the lowering of the levels at the Slaters Point gage with the commencement of the diversions to the Robert Moses plant in 1961. In the operation of the Control Structure for regulation of the Chippawa- Grass Island Pool, the Power Entities have generally adhered to the Board's instruction. However, as a result of the recent study and the occurrence of a severe storm over the eastern end of Lake Erie resulting in extreme high Niagara River flows on January 25, 1972, the Board is reviewing its present instructions to the Power Entities. The American Falls Channel gage continued to operate but the data was published as provisional data and the Working Committee took necessary measures to develo.p a more reliable stage-discharge relationship for the American Falls Channel. An effort is being made to modify the present gage installation by relocation of the intake pipe. The Westinghouse Leading Edge Flowmeter, located at the Fort Erie Customs Dock, has encountered operating problems and the rating of the meter which will provide a continuous monitoring of the flows out of Lake Erie will soon be completed. Flow measurements were continued to monitor flows in the Niagara River. As part of its continuing investigation of the Lake Erie-Niagara River Ice Boom, the Working Committee forwarded to the Board on February 11, 1972 a report entitled, "Study of Lake Erie Ice Boom, dated January 1972." A program of further ice boom investigations is being prepared. The installation of the Lake Erie-Niagara River Ice Boom began on November 30, 1971 and final closure was completed on December 10. The boom was subject to prolonged severe pounding on a number of occasions, resulting mn some sections of the broom breaking. All sections were repaired as soon as weather conditions permitted. An ice bridge formed in the Maid-of-the-Mist Pool on January 29. On February 23, the bridge extended from the base of the Horseshoe Falls downstream to the Whirlpool Bridge. The Board met on 17 March 1972 with interested agencies that may be affected by the 48-6 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS opening of the ice boom. The Board recommended to the Commission that operations to open the boom commence not earlier than April 10, 1972, the exact date to be determined from a continuing assessment of area weather and ice conditions in Lake Erie and the Niagara River. Navigation opened on Lake Erie at Port Colborne on 1 April with ice breakers assisting, and no navigation problems were encountered. On 18 April the Board recommended to the Commission that boom opening commence on 20 April and the Commission directed the Power Entities to commence removal of the boom with completion of opening as soon, thereafter, as possible. On 25 April 1972, all sections of the boom were opened. Moderate ice runs occurred after the boom was opened but no damage to shore property nor jamming of power plant intakes was reported. The Board reviewed a Working Committee report titled "Study on Effect of Fill Structures and Dikes in the Upper Niagara River." The report concluded that fills made in the upper Niagara River since 1940 have had no measurable accumulative effect, except for the rock-fill weir just above the control structure, and the Squaw Island fill, which have had only minor effects. The study included an examination of the theoretical effect of extensive filling to the six-foot depth contour, using a mathematical model for analysis, and outlines a procedure for monitoring fills. The Board reported to the Commission its conclusions and recommendations on this subject. 2G. INTERNATIONAL NIAGARA COMMITTEE Constitution and duties. The Treaty of 1950 between Canada and the United States concerning the uses of waters of the Niagara River was signed on February 27, 1950. By its provisions, limitations on the diversions of Niagara River water for power ip 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 Treaty, a representative was appointed by each government who, acting jointly, shall ascertain and determine the amounts of water available for the purposes of this treaty, and shall record the same and shall also record the amounts of water used for power diversions. 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 International 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 exception of the 5,000 cubic feet per second authorized October 1940 for diversion by Canada, are to be allocated quality between both countries. Minimum flows over the Falls shall not be less than 100,000 cubic feet per second between 8 am and 10 pm EST from April 1 to September 15, and 8 am to 8 pm from September 16 to October 31. At all other times the flow over the Falls shall not be less than 50,000 cubic feet per second. A brief history regarding the measurement and supervision of diversion of waters from the Niagara River prior to the designation of the representatives appointed under Article VII of the 1950 Treaty is included in the Committee's 1955 Annual Report. Members of the Committee for fiscal year. The Canadian representative was Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, and the U. S. Representative, was the Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central. Major General E. Graves was Division Engineer during the fiscal year. 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 The Committee has computerized its monthly report in the interest of accuracy and efficiency. 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 and to assure compliance with all provisions of the Treaty. Records of water levels in the Niagara River above and below the Falls were obtained by means of self-registering gages. However, the American Falls channel water level gage used for the purpose of determining flows over the American Falls has been providing inconsistent data since the rewattering of the Falls in November 1969. These inconsistencies have been attributed to modifications made to the gage intake at the time the American Falls channel was dewatered. A precise rating curve is not 48-7 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 possible because of the unpredictable variation in the drawdown in the gage stilling well. Efforts are underway to relocate the gage intake .to an upstream location. The U. S. Department of State has been approached by representatives of the Maid-of-the-Mist Corporation, the owner and operator of the tour boats at Niagara Falls, with a request that an attempt be made to negotiate with the Government of Canada, an amendment to Article IV of the Treaty of February 27, 1950. The proposed amendment would not affect the number of hours during which 100,000 cfs flows are required, but would permit an adjustment of the hours during which these higher flows are operative. The matter is still in abeyance. 2H. AMERICAN FALLS INTERNATIONAL BOARD Constitution and duties. In a Reference dated March 31, 1967, the Governments of the United States and Canada, pursuant to Article IV of the Boundary Waters Treaty of 1909, requested the International Joint Commission to investigate and report upon measures necessary to preserve and enhance the beauty of the American Falls at Niagara. The American Falls International Board was established July 24, 1967, by the Commission to carry out the investigations required under the Reference. Members of the Board for fiscal year. The U. S. members of the Board were the Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, Chairman, U. S. Section; and Mr. G. Eckbo, Chairman, Department of Landscape and Architecture, University of California, Berkeley. Major General E. Graves was North Central Division Engineer during the fiscal year. Canadian members were Mr. T. M. Patterson, Special Advisor, Department of the Environmental, Chairman, Canadian Section, until January 1, 1972 when he was succeeded by Mr. J. D. McLeod, Senior Engineer, same Department, and Mr. H. S. M. Carver, Chief Advisory Group, Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation, Ottawa, (Retired). Operations during fiscal year. The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers received study funds of $300,000 for the fiscal year. Departments of the Canadian Government funded operations of their personnel who are involved in Board and Committee activities. The expenses of the representative of the two Park Commissions have been borne by the respective Park Commission. The Board submitted an Interim Report to the Commission in December 1971 containing the results of aesthetic, geologic and engineering studies to date. All reasonable measures for preservation and enhancement, and public safety were assessed. Four alternative plans were formulated, one was recommended as a preferred course of action consisting of: (a) An initial time-phased program of medial measures in the interest of safety and preserving and enhancing the beauty of the American Falls should include: (i) Immediate instrumentation of all unstable areas affecting the safety of the viewing public to detect movement which would foreshadow a dangerous failure; (ii) Stabilization of the flanks to protect selected viewing areas; and (iii) Improvement of lower viewing areas by limited removal of talus and by landscaping. (b) Further measures which could be undertaken successively to improve the appearance to the American Falls, depending on the results of the initial program, are: (i) Structural measures to increase the flow over the American Falls during selected hours of the day; (ii) Raising the level ofthe Maid-of-the-Mist Pool; and (iii) Removal of substantial amounts of talus from the American Falls. (c) The process of natural change of the American Falls should not be arrested by an effort to stabilize the wet walls. The Commission distributed to the public copies of the Interim Report prior to holding a Public Hearing in Niagara Falls, New York on 24 March, 1972. No significant objections were received at the Public Hearing on the former alternative plans proposed. The Commission concurred in the Board's conclusions and recommendations in the Interim Report and directed the Board to report as soon as may be practical on the safety warning system, stabilization of the flanks, and the improvement of lower viewing areas by limited removal of talus and by landscaping. Several rock mechanics instruments were installed in various areas to monitor conditions in selected geologic features of the Falls and flanks. Those instruments include seven piezometers to measure water pressure in the rock, two borehole inclinometers to detect and ipeasure horizontal movement in the rock and two borehole extensometers to detect and record strains in the rock. They have been monitored at intervals of several weeks to quarterly, depending on the type of instrument. No significant movement has been noted. Work on a safety warning system to help protect the visitors viewing the Falls from the flank areas was initiated. The borehole extensometers were installed, one at the Goat Island flank of the Horsehoe Falls, one at the Prospect Point flank of the American Falls. These instruments were connected to a central alarm system. Preparations for core borings and additional instrumentation of the flank areas continued. The aesthetic model of the Falls, completed last year was maintained during the fiscal year. The 48-8 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS model will probably remain intact through the study period to assist in aesthetic evaluations of possible remedial measures. The model was built by Hydro Electric Power Commission of Ontario as part of its contribution to the study. Costs for maintaining the model have been borne by the Power Commission and the Government of Canada. Four appendices to the Interim Report were forwarded to the International Joint Commission in May 1972 and the Commission approved public release of these reports. Studies of ice formation in the Maid-of-the-Mist Pool and data collection continued. The Erie and Niagara Counties (N.Y.) Regional Planning Board published its Technical Report - "International Environmental Study, Environmental Enhancement of the Niagara River" in November 1971. This study was an offspring of the Board's recommendations to the Commission for an environmental study which would analyze the problems of the region and suggest a formal mechanism for their solution. The Technical Report establishes some guidelines for the improved management of activities with environmental consequences along the Niagara River. Proposals are presented in this report for improving the functional and aesthetic quality of the entire 37-mile length of River system from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario. The Board submitted a revised plan of study to the Commission that provided a schedule of work and funding to accomplish the studies required under the original 1967 Reference to the Commission and under the October 1970 Expanded Reference which extended the investigations to the flanks of the American Falls and the Goat Island flank of the Horseshoe Falls. The Commission approved the revised plan of study in October 1971. In response to the Commission's request, the Board plans to submit another Interim Report in January 1974 on the safety warning system, stabilization of the flanks, and the improvement of the lower viewing areas by limited removal of talus and by landscaping and the plan of study will be revised to provide for the additional Interim Report, expanded environmental studies and public involvement programs. 21. INTERNATIONAL GREAT LAKES LEVELS BOARD Constitution and duties. The Governments of Canada and the United States, by Reference dated October 7, 1964, requested the International Joint Commission to determine whether measures within the Great Lakes Basin can be taken in the public interest to regulate further the levels of the Great Lakes or any of them and their connecting waters so as to reduce the extremes of stages which have been experienced, and for the beneficial effects in these waters. At a meeting on December 2, 1964, the International Joint Commission established the Board to undertake the necessary investigations and studies and to advise the Commission on all matters which it must consider in making a report or reports to the Government under the Reference. At the first meeting of the Board on January 6, 1965, a Working Committee was selected. The Working Committee met on July 7, 1965 and set up four Subcommittees to investigate and report on the separate areas of study involved: Shore Property, Navigation, Power and Regulation. A Subcommittee on Regulatory Works was subsequently established by the Working Committee in September 1967 and a Reports Subcommittee in June 1968. Members of the Board for fiscal year. United States members of the Board were Mr. L. G. Feil, Retired, Office, Chief of Engineers, U. S. Army, Chairman, United States Section; Mr. M. Abelson, Regional Coordinator, Northeast Region, Department of the Interior; and Mr. B. T. Jose, Assistant Administrator, St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation, Department of Transportation. Canadian Members of the Board were Mr. T. M. Patterson, Special Advisor to Assistant Deputy Minister (Water), Department of the Environment, Chairman, Canadian Section until December 31, 1971 when he was succeeded by Mr. C. K. Hurst, Chief, Maintenance and Operations, Harbors and Rivers Engineering Branch, Department of Public Works; Mr. R. H. Smith, Acting Director, Marine Hydraulics Branch, Ministry of Transport; and Mr. N. H. James, Water Management Service, Department of the Environment. The Working Committee consists of five members representing the United States and three representing Canada. U. S. members of the Working Committee were the Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, Chairman, U. S. Section; Mr. M. Abelson; Mr. M. V. Simon, Trade Specialist, Chicago Field Office, Department of Commerce until January 1972 when he was succeeded by Mr. F. A. Blust, Lake Survey Center, NOAA, same Department; Mr. J. H. Spellman, Deputy Regional Engineer, New York Regional Office, Federal Power Commission; and Mr. J. D. Officer, St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation, Department of Transportation who was appointed in January 1972. Major General E. Graves was North Central Division Engineer during the fiscal year. Canadian members of the Working Committee were Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director, Inland Waters Branch, Department of 48-9 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 the Environment, Chairman, Canadian Section; Mr. D. W. Quinlan, Manager Construction and Engineering, Department of Public Works; and Mr. C. J. R. Lawrie, Marine Hydraulics Branch, Ministry of Transport. The six subcommittees have been formed with membership drawn from agencies participating in the study and represented on the Board and Working Committee. Operations during fiscal year. Work has been completed on a series of final plans for the coordinated regulation of Lakes Superior and Ontario. The plans were developed to meet a number of alternative sets of regulation objectives. The results of these plans were incorporated in an Interim Report entitled "Regulation of Lakes Superior and Ontario, Plan SO-901." Work is proceeding on plans for the Superior- Erie-Ontario, Superior-Michigan-Huron-Ontario, and Superior- Michigan-Huron-Erie-Ontario combination of lakes. Preliminary results of the plans have been reviewed and a selected plan for each combination of lakes is planned for detailed evaluation. Development of preliminary criteria for regulation continued. The preliminary criteria will be subject to considerable subsequent modification as a result of future economic evaluations and further considerations in regard to the requirements of the various interests concerned with lake regulation. An investigation for increasing the flexibility of Lake Superior regulation is continuing, specifically, to determine the ability to pass winter flows in excess of 85,000 cfs. If the tests prove the feasibility of higher winter flow, regulation plans will be developed with higher maximum winter flows. A comparison will be made between the cost of operating control gates in winter to achieve the higher flows and the economic benefit which would ensue therefrom. A fourth winter of experimental operation of the gates of the Lake Superior Control Works at Sault Ste. Marie was planned. The United States program of navigation season extension on the Great Lakes was continued during the past winter, ending on February 1, 1972. Because of the difficulties of separating the effects of the two programs, and the occurrence and persistence of high water levels in the St. Marys River below the locks, the 1971-72 Board tests were limited to surveillance activities. Regulatory works studies of design and estimates of costs are continuing. Regulatory works design and cost studies for the St. Marys River are being finalized. A contract was let for the design and cost estimates for permanent heating and mechanized operation required for winter operation of the gates of the Lake Superior Control Works. Reports on all subsurface investigations of the possible sites for structures and channels on the St. Clair-Detroit River systen were completed. A contract for the conceptual designs and cost estimates of possible St. Clair-Detroit River structures was let and work completed. The Board is also conducting a concurrent investigation into the engineering and environmental aspects of disposal of the excavated material from possible structure sites and channels in the St. Clair-Detroit and Niagara Rivers. Preliminary design and cost estimates for the possible works in the St. Clair-Detroit Rivers were completed. The design and cost have been completed for regulatory work necessary in the Niagara River. Investigations are underway to define and assess environmental effects of implementing developed regulation plans. The studies are directed toward areas if possible change in the ecological, hygienic, aesthetic, social and economic environmental characteristics. The assessments will be included as an integral part of the appropriate study appendices and will be the basis for a judgment in the main report as to the environmental effect of the recommended plans. As a part of the environmental studies of the Board, a St. Marys River test of low flow through the Control Structure was carried out. A draft report was prepared. Results indicate that extreme low flows affect the fishery in the rapids area. The Board is considering such effects in its development and evaluation of regulation plans. Work is proceeding on the preparation of the Board's Main Report and seven Appendices on the Study. Preparation of the Lakes Superior-Ontario Interim Report has served to focus and sharpen the effort on the Appendices and provide a useful guide for the Main Report. A number of briefing meetings were conducted by the various sub-committees which were attended by Federal, Provincial and State representatives with a broader understanding of the problems and alternate solutions to problems of lake regulation and to stimulate State and Provincial input into the controversial areas of structures and criteria for regulation. The Board studies are being coordinated with the Provinces and States which border on the Great Lakes and their outflow rivers. Personnel of the appropriate Provincial and State Agencies are cooperating with those of the participating Federal Agencies. 2J. COORDINATING COMMITTEE ON GREAT LAKES BASIC HYDRAULIC AND HYDROLOGIC DATA Constitution and duties. The Committee was formed on May 7, 1953 for the purpose of establishing a basis for development and acceptance by both countries (United States and Canada) of 48-10 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS identical hydraulic and hydrologic data for the Great Lakes and their outflow channels. The Committee was established advisory to the agencies of the United States and Canada which are charged with the responsibility for collecting and compiling the Great Lakes hydraulic and hydrologic data. Three working subcommittees, designated the River Flow Subcommittee, the Vertical Control Subcommittee and the Lake Level Subcommittee were formed to assist the Coordinating Committee in its work. Subsequently, the Physical Data Subcommittee was formed. The Vertical Control and Lake Level Subcommittees were combined into one subcommittee in 1969. These subcommittees have been conducting the required techinical studies through collaboration of the appropriate agencies of the United States and Canada. Members of the Committee for fiscal year. The United States members were Mr. D. J. Leonard, Hydraulic Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, Chairman, U. S. Section; Mr. B. G.

The River Flow Subcommittee distributed the Lake Superior outflow report for the period 1860-1968. A study of rating of the compensating works in the St. Marys River was continued, and also a study of coordinated St. Clair River flows was continued. A study is underway to coordinate total runoff values for the tributary land areas to each of the Great Lakes. The Vertical Control and Lake Level Subcommittee's final report on Lake Erie and Niagara River water level gage histories was distributed. Work was continued on preparation of gage histories for Lakes Superior, Michigan-Huron, St. Clair and the St. Marys, St. Clair and Detroit Rivers. All of these histories will be placed in one document and called Upper Lakes Gage Histories. Leveling for the updating of IGLD (1955) continued, with both U.S. and Canadian field work to be completed during 1972. Data to study vertical (crustal and other) movement is being collected on a continuous basis. The Physical Data Subcommittee continued work on determining the water volumes of Lakes Huron and Superior. Work was continued on the coordination of shoreline mileages of the Great Lakes. 2K. INTERNATIONAL GREAT LAKES STUDY GROUP Constitution and duties. The International Great Lakes Study Group is an informal organization including representatives of Canadian and U. S. agencies and institutions engaged in basic and applied research, and engineering investigations related to the development and utilization of the Great Lakes water resources. The Group was formed October 1962 as the Lake Erie Study Group and was later renamed the Great Lakes Study Group in recognition of the members interest in all the Great Lakes. Its primary purpose is to facilitate the exchange of information and to provide informal coordination among the various research activities relating to the Lakes. The Group provides a forum for assisting, coordinating and eliminating duplication. It also sponsors a data repository for the cataloging, storage and circulation of basic data. Members of the Group for fiscal year. The Steering Committee of the Study Group consists of up to six members from each country. During the year the United States Chairman was Mr. S. H. Fonda, Jr., Chief, Great Lakes Water Control Center, U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, North Central Division; Dr. D. C. Chandler, Director, Great Lakes Research Division, University of Michigan; Dr. A.P. Pinzak, Lake Survey Center NOAA, Department of Commerce; Dr. Ralph Rumer, State University of New York at Buffalo and Mr. L. A. Cook, Michigan Water Resources Commission. The Canadian members of the Group were Dr. A. D. Misener, Director, Great Lakes Institute, University of Toronto; Mr. T. L. Richards, Meterological Service of Canada, Department of Transport; Mr. J. P. Bruce, Director, Canada Centre for Inland Waters; Dr. A. M. McCombie, Ontario Department of Lands and Forests; and Mr. F. A. Voege, Assistant General Manager, Ontario Water Resources Commission. Operations during the fiscal year. The coordination of research activities has been continued during the year. The Study Group has continued its coordination of research activities in connection with the International Field Year of the Great Lakes and the International Hydrologic Decade. Activities related to Large Lake Research Program, Precipitation Chemistry and Atmospheric Pollution have been coordinated in connection with the activities of the Federal Interagency Committee. The Study Group has continued its efforts to get most or all agencies concerned with the Great Lakes closer and to 48-11 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 coordinate their activities. The activities of several Subcommittees have continued. The Shore Processes Subcommittee has been established to look into research activities related to Great Lakes shoreline problems. During the year the Study Group met in Kingston, Ontario on October 18-19, 1971 and the Steering Committee met in Madison, Wisconsin on April 4, 1972. At the Study Group meetings, the Federal, State and Provincial activities have been reported; also University activities have been reported and discussed for the awareness of all entities. 2L. 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 elevations 600.5 and 602.0 feet above mean water level at Father Point, Quebec (International Great Lakes Datum-1955) and to so control the outflow as to prevent the level of the St. Marys River below the locks from exceeding elevation 582.9 feet. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Advisor to the Director, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment was the member for Canada. The Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central was the United States member. Major General E. Graves was Division Engineer during the fiscal year. Operations during fiscal year. The Board kept in touch during the year with conditions pertaining to the regulation of Lake Superior through representatives of Canada and the United States in the area 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 Ste. Marie Locks, and on Lake Huron. Records of discharge 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. On October 26, 1971 the Board approved a proposal of the International Great Lakes Levels Board for further winter tests operations to be carried out during the 1971-72 winter season provided that the test flow of 95,000 cfs would not commence until after the 1971 navigation season had ended and a stable ice cover and normal winter slope were present in the St. Marys River. Detailed arrangements were made for continuous monitoring of the water levels in the lower St. Marys River so that at the first sign of any impending ice build-up, immediate preventive action would be taken by closing the necessary number of gates. Approval from the Great Lakes Power Corporation, which owns the Canadian portion of the control structure, was obtained for the operation of these gates for the test program. This year, because of the high supply situation and the severe ice condition on the river, the tests were limited to ice surveillance and river monitoring. Commencing about mid-January 1972, water levels in the St. Marys River below the Rapids began rising as an ice cover started to form. Large amounts of snow from a record storm created slush and thickened the ice cover, causing a reduction in the discharge capacity of the river. The on-site representatives kept in touch with the Board and were authorized to take emergency action by closing necessary gates if the lower river level continued to rise to a critical elevation. On January 26 the Board reduced the outflow from 85,000 cfs to about 75,000 cfs by closing two of the five gates open. The navigation season on the St. Marys River ended on February 1, 1972. During the ensuing weeks, continuing hydraulic monitoring and visual inspections of the river showed that the critical ice situation in the Little Rapids section did not warrant a change in the three-gate open setting until the end of March 1972. As a result of the test program over the previous three years and the reduction in flow to about 75,000 cfs this past winter, there were about 49,000 cfs - months of water stored in Lake Superior. The Levels Board has transferred to the Lake Superior Board the gate heating equipment for making possible gate changes as may be required during the winter. About 5 percent of the total discharge capacity from Lake Superior was lost when the hydraulic turbines of the Abitibi Pulp and Paper Company were closed in April 1970. Since April 20, 1972, the discharge capacity of the Abitibi Company has been restored in order to alleviate the high water supply conditions that have been experienced on Lake Superior. A low flow test at Sault Ste. Marie was carried out during August, 1971 in cooperation with the Shore Property Subcommittee of the Levels Board's Working Committee to observe the effects of low-flow conditions through the St. Marys Rapids, in particular the effect of different 48-12 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS patterns of gate openings under these low-flow conditions on the river-bottoms feeding organisms which form the food supply for the fishery in the rapids. Various Federal, State, and university experts participated in the tests. Based upon the effect of low-flows on the St. Marys River Rapids fishery as reported to the International Great Lakes Levels Board, the Lake Superior Board plans to undertake an investigation of the feasibility and desirability of changes in operating procedures and minor remedial works in the interest of the fishery. In April 1972 the Great Lakes Fisher Commission requested the IJC to modify the gate setting during mid-August 1972 to reduce flow through the rapids in order to further their lamprey control by application of lampricide in the rapids. The Lake Superior Board, with approval of the IJC, is cooperating with the Fishery Commission to provide for the necessary reduction in flow for a short period of time. The Board carried out its annual inspection of the Compensating Works on August 3, 1971. On the United States portion of the structure, there was no repair work performed during the year. Some minor maintenance work is needed on the submerged portion of gate Nos. 14, 15 and 16, when these gates are closed. Due to the high levels which prevailed in 1971, these maintenance items were postponed. The working parts of the gatelifting equipment were oiled and greased to maintain all gates in acceptable operating conditions. On the Canadian portion of the structure, a number of planks in the decking were rotted and required replacing for safety; the concrete caps covering the downstream sections of the Canadian piers contained shrub and plant growth in several areas which require removal; the existing joints and cracks in the caps required cleaning and filling to prevent water seepage into the piers; and vertical cracks are observed in the downstream sections of two of the piers, which could be the result of the settlement. An underwater inspection of the noses and piers and the downstream ends of all the Canadian piers took place prior to last winter, to assess the remedial measure required. The Board agreed to close the appropriate gates to provide adequate safety for divers during the inspection. The Great Lakes Power Corporation advised the Canadian Member of the Board that the deck and the concrete caps on the downstream sections of piers 1 to 5 had been repaired, and an underwater inspection had been carried out in October and that there is considerable deterioration in several areas at the base of the structure and that the Company proposed to begin repair work as early as possible in the spring. An additional period for further underwater investigation has been granted the Corporation and is scheduled to take place during the summer of 1972. The foundations of the United States portion of the structure has been determined to be in good condition. On the matter of the Long Lake and Ogoki diversions into the Lake Superior Basin, the U. S. Member of the Board ftirnished information to the U. S. Section of the Commission in response to a request from the U. S. Department of State. The matter had been deferred to the Department of State by the U. S. Section of the Commission, since the diversions are the subject of an exchange of notes between the two governments. A number of letters written on behalf of property owners on the United States side of the lake were received by the U. S. Member of the Board concerning high water conditions on the lake during the year. Appropriate replies were communicated in each case. 2M. INTERNATIONAL PRAIRIE PORTAGE BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The International Prairie Portage Board of Control was formed by the International Joint Commission for purpose of furnishing it with technical advice regarding suitability of a dam structure at Prairie Portage, Lake County, Minn. After approval of plans by Department of the Army and the Commission, the Board was retained to advise the Commission further regarding progress of construction and any other matters which might arise concerning this project. The U. S. Forest Service constructed a cofferdam before World War II but postponed work on the project during the war. On June 12, 1968 after a period of heavy rains the cofferdam was washed out, resulting in lowering the lake levels of Birch, Sucker, Moose, Newfound and Ensign Lakes. This caused considerable difficulty for boating, as shallow water exists at the outlet of the lakes. By November 10, 1968 the U. S. Forest Service completed reconstruction of the Prairie Portage cofferdam which had been functioning satisfactorily at the control dam for the lakes. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. J. D. McLeod Senior Engineer, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, represented Canada, and Col. C. I. McGinnis District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul, represented the United States until July 1971 when he was succeeded by Col. R. E. Cox. Operations during the fiscal year. The U. S. Forest Service did not receive funds to construct the permanent Prairie Portage Dam. They have written to the International Joint Commission, 48-13 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 through the Board, equesting a two-year extension in the completion date (presently August 18, 1973) of the permanent dam. Construction drawings were submitted to the U. S. Board Member, who in turn, sent two copies to the Canadian member for concurrent review. Specifications have not as yet been submitted for review because of questions over period of work, types of equipment and methods of transportation, etc. A question has also arisen on the design runoff factor to be used in determining the spillway size. It is currently being studied by both Board members. 2N. INTERNATIONAL RAINY LAKE BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Convention between the United States and Canada, ratified by U. S. Senate August 30, 1940, provides in part that: "The International 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, 1939, the Commission issued an Order to the owners of dams at outlets of Namakan Lake and Rainy Lake, which provide for a method of regulation as recommended by International Rainy Lake Board of Control. The 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 to October 1967 and again to October 1972, by action of the Commission on October 2, 1962 and April 5, 1967, respectively. On July.29, 1970, the Supplementary Order in the matter of emergency regulation of Rainy Lake and of the Boundary Waters in the Rainy Lake Watershed was approved by the Commission. Since that time, Rainy and Namakan Lakes have been operated in accordance with rule curves prescribed by this Supplementary Order. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. J. D. McLeod, Senior Engineer, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, represented Canada, and Col. C. I. McGinnis, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul, represented the United States until July 9, 1971 when he was succeeded by Col. R. E. Cox. Operations during fiscal year. Inflow to both Rainy and Namakan Lakes was near normal on July 1, 1971, but dropped to below normal by the end of August. Outflows from Rainy and Namakan were reduced to near the prescribed minimum in September. Rainy Lake dropped 0.2 foot below the minimum rule curve near the end of September. Heavy rains beginning on September 30 and continuing through mid November caused both lakes to rise above the maximum rule curve by the end of October and remain there until late December. The outlet of Nam'akan Lake was wide open from November 2, 1971 through May 31, 1972. The outlet of Rainy Lake was wide open (approximately 32,000 cfs) during November and reduced in steps to 12,000 cfs by mid January, where it remained until April 10, 1972. On April 6, 1972, Colonel Cox with two staff engineers and the Canadian member of the Board met with local residents in the vicinity of International Falls to arrive at the best solutions to operating problems. Although inflows and outflows of both Namakan and Rainy Reservoirs were heavy and both lakes were above their respective maximum rule curves during the fall of 1971, little difficulty was encountered as a result of the winter operation. During the spring snowmelt and the ensuing filling of Rainy Lake and Namakan Chain of Lakes, a problem was encountered in both lakes, especially the Namakan Chain of Lakes, because of a slower than normal rate of filling. The problem was most noticeable on Lake Kabetogama, one of the Namakan Chain of Lakes. On May 15, 1972, opening day of the Minnesota fishing season, Lake Kabetogama was approximately two feet lower than was customary since the 1957 Supplementary Order was implemented. Several complaints were registered by resort owners from Kabetogama, Crane and Namakan Lakes. Three factors were instrumental in the lake levels being as they were during the spring of 1972; first was the climate with a late breakup and a general deficiency of precipitation during the breakup period, second was the rule curve changed by the 1970 Supplementary Order and third was a change in operating policy by the Boise Cascade Company (owners and operators of the Kettle Falls Dams at the outlet of Namakan Lake) because of a lawsuit resulting from high water in June 1968. Also during the fiscal year, the Boise Cascade Company initiated efforts to sell the Kettle Falls Dams to the U. S. Park Service since the Park Service has purchased the surrounding lands for the Voyagers National Park. Other agencies mentioned as possibly interested parties were the U. S. Forest Service, Ontario Department of Lakes and Forests and recently the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers. 20. INTERNATIONAL LAKE OF THE WOODS CONTROL BOARD Constitution and duties. The Convention between the United States and Great Britain pro- 48-14 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS claimed 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 Government of Canada to establish and maintain a Canadian Lake of the Wood 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 water level rises above elevation 1061 feet or falls below elevation 1056 feet, sea level datum. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. J.D. McLeod, Senior Engineer, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, represented Canada and Col. C.I. McGinnis, District Engineer, U.S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul, represented the United States until July 9, 1971 when he was succeeded by Col. R.E. Cox. Operations during fiscal year. The Control Board maintained supervision to insure that every effort was being made to comply with the provisions of the Convention. On July 1, 1971, the level of Lake of the Woods was 1060.0 and fairly steady. Inflow to Lake of the Woods was below normal in July and fell to considerably below normal in September. However, October and November were months of heavy, general rains. The outlet of Lake of the Woods was wide open between November 23, and December 9, discharging over 45,000 cfs. The lake reached a peak of 1060.8 feet on November 21, 1971. By mid December, the outflow was reduced to 30,000 cfs, except for a two week reduction to 20,000 cfs at the end of February, remained at 30,000 cfs until May 4, 1972. Average outflows from Lake of the Woods for months of November through February, were the highest on record. The winter snowpack was average to slightly below average and with an absence of spring rains, Lake of the Woods had been refilled only one foot to 1059.0 feet by the end of June. On April 5, 1972, Colonel Cox and two staff engineers together with their Canadian counterparts attended an open meeting with local interests at Warroad, sponsored by the Control Board to discuss levels on Lake of the Woods. This was a cooperative effort of both the Canadian and American members of the Board to arrive at the best solutions for the operating problems. There was considerable discussion over the previous winter's operation, but those in attendance were fairly well satisfied (but not happy) that the operation was reasonable considering extremes of runoff that were experienced. 2P. INTERNATIONAL PEMBINA RIVER ENGINEERING BOARD Constitution and duties. The Board was established April 3, 1962 by the International Joint Commission to investigate and report upon the measures which could be taken to develop the water resources of the Pembina River, Manitoba and North Dakota, and to reduce recurring flood losses in the basin. Members of the Board for fiscal year. The Board consists normally of six members. The Canadian representatives were Mr. J. G. Watson, Chief Engineer, Department of Regional Economic Expansion, Department of Agriculture, Regina, Saskatchewan, Chairman, Canadian Section; Mr. R. H. Clark, Chief, Engineering Division, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, Ottawa, Ontario; and Mr. N. H. James, Hydraulic Engineer, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, Ottawa, Ontario. The United States representatives were Chairman, U. S. Section (vacant); Mr. E. L. Hendricks, Chief Hydrologist, Water Resources Division, U. S. Geological Survey, Department of the Interior; and Col. C. I. McGinnis, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul, Minnesota until July 9, 1971 when he was succeeded by Col. R. E. Cox. Operations during fiscal year. The Board reports annually to the Commission. With regard to its assignment, the Board submitted its report, dated December 31, 1964, to the Commission. During June 1965 the Commission, with the Board in attendance, held public hearings in Manitou, Manitoba and Walhalla, North Dakota, where the views of concerned interests were presented relative to the information and conclusions in the Board's report. Subsequently, the Commission prepared a separate report, dated 1967, which was furnished to the Governments of Canada and the United States. To date no action has been taken by either Government and the Board is in an inactive status. 2Q. INTERNATIONAL SOURIS-RED RIVERS ENGINEERING BOARD Construction and duties. The Board was established April 3, 1948 by the International Joint Commission to investigate and report on the water resources of a board area along the international boundary extending from the Milk River drainage basin in the west up to and including the drainage basin at the Red River of the North on the east. The Board reported in 1959 to the 48-15 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Commission that with the possible exception of the Pembina River there were no significant problems on international streams within the terms of the January 12, 1948 Reference and assignment. It has been retained to investigate and report on the water and related problems of material concern to the two countries arising out of the operation of existing dams and other work or proposed water related improvements, proposals for further uses of water by either of the two countries, recommendations concerning the apportionment between the two countries of those waters which cross the international boundary, and to investigate and review plans of mutual advantage to the two countries for the conservation, control, and use of the waters within the area of reference. The Board reports annually to the Commission. Members of the Board for fiscal year. The Board consists of six members. The Canadian representatives were Mr. J. G. Watson, Chief Engineer, Department of Regional Economic Expansion, Department of Agriculture, Regina, Saskatchewan, Chairman, Canadian Section; Mr. R. H. Clark, Chief Engineering Division, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, Ottawa, Ontario; and Mr. N. H.

Geological Survey, Department of the Interior; and Col. C. I. McGinnis, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul, Minnesota until July 9, 1971 when he was succeeded by Col. R. E. Cox. Operations during the fiscal year. In accordance with the August 20, 1969 instructions from the Commission, the Engineering Board has been considering the survey report for flood control prepared by the Corps of Engineers on the Souris River, North Dakota. The Engineering Board has been requested to report to the Commission on the effects of the Corps of Engineers authorized Burlington Reservoir on the Souris River near Minot, North Dakota, upstream in Saskatchewan and downstream during periods of reservoir drawdown on flows in Manitoba. An ad hoc Engineering Committee, including representatives of the Corps of Engineers and the U. S. Geological Survey, is conducting the necessary United States studies and working with Canadian members in preparation of the required reports. Necessary supplemental field survey data have been obtained and this study is underway with completion scheduled for June 1973. 2R. INTERNATIONAL ROSEAU RIVER ENGINEERING BOARD Constitution and duties. The Board was re-established by the International Joint Commission on August 26, 1971 to undertake, through appropriate agencies in Canada and the United States, the necessary investigations and studies and to advise the Commission on all matters which it must consider in making a final and complete report on the questions referred to it by the two Governments in the December 14, 1928 Reference: (a) Should there be coordinated projects for the control of Roseau River waters on both sides of the boundary? (b) will the protective words proposed by Canada have any effect on the United States side of the boundary? and (c) what are the effects, if any, of flood control works and resultant flood flows on the Roseau and Red Rivers? The Board will complete the investigation assigned in the terms of the Reference that was partially reported in the Commission's Interim Report of June 8, 1929 and the December 5, 1949 report with respect to the diversion of Pine Creek, a tributary of the Roseau River. Members for fiscal year. The Board consists of four members. For Canada: Mr. W. B. Thomson Chief Engineer, PFRA, Department of Regional Economic Expansion, Canadian Section Chairman; and Mr. T. E.

Army Engineer District, St. Paul, U. S. Section Chairman; and Mr. E. R.Geve, Director, Division of Waters, Soils and Minerals, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. Col. E. E. Cox was the St. Paul District Engineer during the year. The Board formed a Task Force on October 21, 1971 to prepare a program of studies and to coordinate and conduct studies assigned by the Board. The Task Force consisted of Mr. N. Mudry, Chief of Planning, Water Resources Branch, Manitoba Department of Mines, Resources and Environmental Management; Mr. F. Quinn, Water Planning and Operations Branch, Department of the Environment; Mr. D. G. Retka, Hydrologist, Division of Water Soils and Minerals, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources; and Mr. P. A. Fischer, Chief Hydraulics Branch, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul. Operations during fiscal year. The Board met on October 21, 1971, March 7, 1972, April 12, 1972 and on April 17, 1972. The Board appeared before the Commission on April 12, 1972. The Task Force met on December 7, 1971, January 11, 1972, February 3, 1972, March 7, 48-16 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS 1972, April 17, 1972 and May 4, 1972. These meetings were held primarily to prepare and initiate a plan of study titled "Plan of Study, Coordinated Water Use and Control, Roseau River Basin, Manitoba, Minnesota" which the Board approved on March 7, 1972 and the Commission approved on April 12, 1972 at which time the Commission directed the Board to first undertake studies and investigations to resolve questions associated with providing flood protection to the Minnesota residents living along the Roseau River. The Board and Task Force coordinated studies to be undertaken by the various agencies in both countries and hydrology studies as part of the review on the proposed flood control works in Minnesota which would serve as a basis for the design of mitigation works in Canada and in preparing alternative plans for mitigating works in Canada which would be required due to the Corps of Engineers authorized flood control project on the Roseau River. 2S. INTERNATIONAL KOOTENAY LAKE BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was established November 11, 1938 to secure compliance with the provisions of the Orders of Approval of the International Joint Commission dated November 11, 1938, and August 5, 1949, relating to the construction and operation of control works by the Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company, of Canada, Ltd. (Cominco Ltd), through the West Kootenay Power and Light Co., Ltd., in and adjacent to the channel of the Kootenay River regulation of the levels of Kootenay Lake in the Province of British Columbia and the operation of the Duck Lake outlet control works by the Creston Valley Wildlife Management Authority, in accordance with the Orders of the Commission dated October 12, 1950, April 3, 1956, and March 31, 1970. Members of the Board for fiscal year. For Canada: Mr. H. T. Ramsden, District Engineer, Water Survey of Canada, Department of the Environment, Vancouver, British Columbia, Chairman, Canadian Section until October 15, 1971 when he was succeeded by Mr. G.

Paget, Deputy Minister of Water Resources, Department of Lands, Forest and Water Resources, Victoria, British Columbia, and for the United States: Colonel H. L. Sargent, Jr., District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, Seattle, Wash., Chairman, U. S. Section and Mr. W. L. Burnham, District Chief, Water Resources Division, U. S. Geological Survey, Boise, Idaho until July 1971 when he was succeeded by Mr. H. K. Hall, same title and office. Operations during fiscal year. Although no formal meetings of the Board were held during the fiscal year all Board members made one or more inspection visits to the area. An annual report was submitted to the Commission. The Board reported that Cominco Ltd., operated the control works at Corra Linn Dam under the provisions of the Order of the Commission dated November 11, 1938. With the buildup of storage for winter use, the lake rose to a maximum of 3.9 feet above the computed natural level on 28 November and was 2.9 feet above computed natural level on 31 December. Storage at Duncan Dam affected the inflow to Kootenay Lake. The levels of Kootenay Lake under 1929 outlet conditions (called natural conditions) were computed without including the storage changes in Duncan Lake. Streamflow measurements have been made regularly throughout the year by the U. S. Geological Survey and by the Water Survey of Canada. The WestKootenay Power and Light Company has continued to supply the Board and other agencies involved with complete records of the regulation of Kootenay Lake as affected by the operation of the Corra Linn Dam and power plant. 2T. INTERNATIONAL OSOYOOS LAKE BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. A special board of engineers was constituted to insure compliance with the provisions of the Order of Approval of the International Joint Commission dated July 12, 1943, directing investigation of high-water conditions on the Okanogan River and studies of the relationships between certain obstructions, complained of in an application of the State of Washington, and the levels of Osoyoos Lake. The Board was enlarged from two to four members by an Order of Approval of the Commission dated September 12, 1946, to carry out the provisions of the Order relative to the alternation and operation of the Zosel Dam. Members of the Board for fiscal year. For Canada: Mr. H. T.

Laird, District Chief, Water Resources Division, U. S. Geological Survey, Tacoma, Wash., Chairman, U. S. Section and the District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, Seattle, Washington. Colonel H. L. Sargent, Jr. was District Engineer during the fiscal year. 48-17 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1972 Operations during fiscal year. The Board did not meet during the year. The range in stage of Osoyoos Lake was within the normal limits. No reports or complaints of flood damage in the vicinity of Osoyoos Lake were received by the Board during the year. An annual report was submitted to the Commission. The U. S. Geological Survey and Water Survey of Canada made surveys of the network of cross profiles and radials on the gravel bar at the mouth of Tonasket Creek during October 1971. It was determined from these surveys that during the proceeding year the Okanogan River scoured approximately 250 cubic yards of material from a 200 foot reach immediately below the mouth of Tonasket Creek. On August 11, 1971 Mr. Ralph Zosel applied to the Board for approval to remove material from a bar in the Okanogan River channel above Zosel Dam, and fill in a small section of channel on his property along the right bank of the river. In reviewing this request the Board members found that the requested changes would probably increase the conveyance of the channel slightly and should not have any detrimental influence relative to either high or low flows. On October 29, 1971, the Board's approval was transmitted to Mr. Zosel. 2U. INTERNATIONAL SKAGIT RIVER BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The International Joint Commission approved on January 27, 1942 an application by the City of Seattle, Wash., to raise Ross Dam to impound Skagit River water to a maximum elevation 1725 feet above mean sea level at the international boundary, subject to a binding agreement being entered into between the City of Seattle and the Government of British Columbia providing for indemnifying British Columbia for any injury that may be sustained by reason of the city's operations on the Skagit River. The Order of approval provided for the appointment of the International Skagit River Board of Control, to consist of two members, one from the engineering services of Canada and the other from the engineering services of the United States, but the Commission did not establish the Board at that time. On January 10, 1967, the Province of British Columbia and the City of Seattle entered into a 99-year agreement permitting flooding of the lands of the Skagit River watershed in British Columbia up to elevation 1725 feet, North American Datum (1927) as established by the Geodetic Survey of Canada. In a July 31, 1967 directive to the designated Board members the Commission stated that the Board was established on April 4, 1967. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. H. T.
