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 if 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. During fiscal year 1974, heavy rains during the summer and autumn months resulted in two significant flood events in June-July 1973 and December 1973. The system of reservoirs and local protection projects in New England prevented flood losses estimated at $54.5 million. During the December flood, for the first time, floodwaters were stored simultanously in all 35 reservoirs. Blackstone River Basin. The West Hill reservoir was regulated in December 1973 and March 1974 resulting in 5 and 8 percent of storage being utilized. Connecticut River Basin. During the month of July 1973, all reservoirs in the basin were utilized for storing flood waters. Ball Mountain, Townshend, Union Village, North Hartland and North Springfield were regulated with storages averaging 50 percent. Lesser amounts ranging from 10 to 20 percent were stored at the remaining projects. In December 1973, all reservoirs in the Connecticut River Basin were re- 1-44 NEW ENGLAND DIVISION gulated for flood control with storage ranging from 8 to 43 percent. In April 1974, North Springfield, Ball Mountain, Townshend and Knightville reservoirs were regulated with 10 to 15 percent of flood control storage utilized. In addition, releases for white water canoeing occurred at Ball Mountain during October 1973 and May 1974, and at Knightville during March and April 1974. Water supply and fishing releases were discharged from Colebrook River Lake. Housatonic River Basin. In July 1973, Thomaston, Hall Meadow, East Branch, Northfield, Black Rock, Hancock Brook and Hop Brook utilized storage ranging from 9 to 30 percent. In December, all seven reservoirs stored record or near record amounts ranging from 12 to 42 percent. Merrimack River Basin. In July 1973, Franklin Falls reservoir levels rose to 66 percent of capacity, the second highest in 30 years of operation. Throughout the flood event, a release rate of 14,000 cfs was maintained to minimize downstream agricultural damage. Blackwater, Hopkinton-Everett and Edward MacDowell stored 10 to 20 percent of capacity during this period. In December 1973, all four reservoirs stored floodwaters ranging from 10 to 37 percent of capacity. Thames River Basin. Hodges Village, Buffumville, East Brimfield, Westville, West Thompson, and Mansfield Hollow were operated in December 1973 utilizing from 12 to 23 percent of their storages. West Thompson Lake level was raised several feet for the AKC retriever trials in September 1973. East Brimfield released water in August and September 1973 to augment downstream flows. 57. 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 12 occasions, all due to coastal storms. The maximum ocean tide rose to 7.8 feet msl. New Bedford-Fairhaven Barrier. The barrier gates were closed on 5 occasions, all due to coastal storms. The maximum ocean tide rose to 4.8 feet msl. Fox Point and Pawcatuck Barriers.

SUPERVISOR OF NEW YORK HARBOR (Prevention of Obstructive and Injurious Deposits) The District Engineer, New York District, was designated Supervisor of New York Harbor under the provisions of the River and Harbor Act of 29 June 1888 (33 U.S.C. 441-451), as amended 12 July 1952. Under this Act, the Supervisor of New York Harbor is charged with the mission of preventing the deposit of obstructive 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 the River and Harbor Act of 18 August 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. The River and Harbor Act of 3 March 1899 (33 U.S.C. 403, 407, 409), commonly known as the Refuse Act, applies to all navigable waters in 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 tributaries to the Federal Lock and Dam at Troy, New York, the East River and its tributaries, Harlem River and Long Island Sound. Enforcement of the Act of 1888 in Long 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 anti-pollution laws under authority of the Act of 3 March 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 the New York District boundary line at the Canadian border are under the jurisdiction of the Disctrict Engineer. The mission includes surveillance and inspection by Patrol Boat, to the 3-mile limit of tows eriroute to dumping grounds in the Atlantic Ocean to ensure that material is not illegally deposited in the waters of New York Harbor; patrol of inland waters i.e. Long Island Sound and the Hudson River to prevent illegal deposits that would have an adverse effect on navigation or anchorage; and prevention of interference with safe navigation in New York Harbor entrance channels and other waters under the jurisdiction of this office. Inspections of shorefront facilities and property are conducted by Inspectors utilizing government vehicles equipped with two-way radios. These Inspectors operate out of field offices located at Belle Meade and Jersey City, New Jersey, Fort Tilden, Fort Totten, Kingston and Troy, New York. The Troy Field Office covers the area of the upper Hudson River and Lake Champlain to the International Boundary at the Canadian Border. Inspections of shorefront facilities are conducted on an 8-hour a day, five days a week schedule. The activities include inspection of construction work, fill or excavation in waterways, including wetland areas, to determine if the individual or company concerned has a Department of the Army permit for such work, and if so, if the work is being performed in accordance with the provisions of the permit; investigation of illegal deposits of refuse into navigable waters or their tributaries, or on the shoreline where the material is subject to being washed into the waterways and adversely affect navigation; obstruction, by vessels, to navigation; inspections of placement and operation of fish pounds and fish nets in the waters of the bays and estuaries tributary to the Atlantic Ocean between Montauk Point, New York and Manasquan,New Jersey, the bays and estuaries in the State of New York tributary to Long Island Sound, and in the Hudson River.

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 Suvey Charts 70, 369, 542, 579, 1000, 1108, and 1215.) Existing project. The project provides for approximately 8.7 million cubic yards of sand fill including the advanced placement of a two year supply of beach nourishment, and Federal participation in the cost of periodic beach nourishment of the shore protection works for 10 years after completion of the initial beach fill. Federal participation (50 percent) includes $13,600,000 first cost and $740,000 annually for 10 years for beach nourishment a total of $21,000,000. Local cooperation. Local interests must provide lands and rights-of-way, including borrow areas; bear 50.0 percent of total first cost presently estimated at $13,600,000 consisting of a cash contribution of $13,600,000 the final apportionment of cost to be made after actual costs and values have been determined and $740,000 annually for periodic nourishment for 10 years, total non-Federal cost $21,000,000; 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, control water pollution to the extent necessary to safeguard the health of bathers; local cooperation agreement was executed by the state May 17, 1974 and approved for Sec/Army 5/31/74. On May 22, 1974 sent to state on approved (OCE) Escrow Agreement. Operations and results during fiscal year. Advance engineering and design completed. Bids for Contract I opened 20 June 1974. Condition at end of fiscal year. Advance engineering and design is complete. 30. FIRE ISLAND INLET, TO JONES INLET, N.Y. Location. Atlantic Coast of Long Island, N.Y., between Fire Island Inlet and Jones Inlet, about 15 miles. Fire Island Inlet is on south shore of Long Island, about 50 miles by water south and east of the Battery, New York City, and connects Great South Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. Jones Inlet is on south shore of Long Island, about 37 miles by water south and east of the Battery, New York City, and connects Hempstead Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 578 and 579.) Existing project. Provides for Federal participation in restoration and protection of shore from Fire Island to Jones Inlets by dredging inlet shoal in Fire Island Inlet and construction of a sand dike to relieve pressure of tidal currents against Oak Beach, to provide a deposition area for littoral drift, and to obtain fill material for a feeder beach and Oak Beach. 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. 2-21 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 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 60.5 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 $26,506,767 (July 1974), of which $2,646,767 is for work authorized by 1958 River and Harbor Act, and $23,860,000 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-ways; 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 cooperaton. 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 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 39.5 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 $17,852,335 (July 1974) for new work, of which $2,272,335 (cash contribution) is for work authorized by the 1958 act; and $15,580,- 000 the 1962 act, of which $15,560,000 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. Assurances executed with State 4/27/73 approved by Sec of Army 5/24/73. Operations and results during fiscal year. Contract #1 was awarded on June 8, 1973 and physically completed May 22, 1974.

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.) Existingproject. 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 of new work is $665,000 (July 1973), 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 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.

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, utilities, and other structures made necessary by construction; (c) bear 30 percent of total first cost estimated at $32,670,000 to consist of items listed in (a) and (b) above and a cash contribution estimated at $28,440,000 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 $35,000 annually; (f) maintain 2-25 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 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 miles 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 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 Gerogica 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 groin 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 2-26 NEW YORK, N.Y., DISTRICT (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.

The diversion dam and raw water supply intakes at Great Falls, the two collecting conduits, part of Dalecarlia receiving reservoir, the booster pumping station, and the Little Falls raw water pumping station are located in Maryland. All other structures of the water supply system including parts of the raw water collecting system, two purification plants, pumping stations, storage reservoirs, and transmission mains are in the District of Columbia. Federally-owned water mains are maintained in Virginia and Maryland. Existing project. Control of the water supply system is vested in Chief of Engineers (See acts of March 3, 1859, and March 2, 1867, and Sec. 1800 of Revised Statutes). The project includes administration, operation, maintenance, and protection of water supply system; including operation and maintenance of collection, purification, pumping, transmission, and storage facilities as well as fiscal management, 4-24 BALTIMORE, MD., DISTRICT planning, engineering, and construction of major water system additions and improvements. Authority to supply water to adjacent Maryland areas and to Arlington County, the City of Falls Church, and other jurisdictions in Virginia is contained in the following Public Laws: Public Law 378, 64th Congress, of March 3, 1917; Public Law 119, 69th Congress, approved April 14, 1926; and Public Law 118, 80th Congress, June 26, 1947. 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 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, 1916 to date, all expenses of operation and maintenance have been paid from the Water Fund of the District of Columbia which was established by Congress to receive the water revenues from water consumed by the Federal Government, the District of Columbia, Arlington County, Va., and Falls Church, Va., as well as loans from the U.S. Treasury for Capital Improvements. From July 1, 1927 to date, all expenses for construction have been paid from loans and revenues deposited in the Water Fund. Public Law 533, 81st Congress, 2nd Session, 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 Congress, 2nd Session, to $35,000,000 and again by Public Law 650, 91st Congress, 2nd Session to $51,000,000. From April 1953 to June 30, 1974, $39,390,000 was borrowed from the United States Treasury, in installments, to finance expansion and improvement of the water system as authorized by the above laws. Fiscal year 1948 through fiscal year 1954, pursuant to Public Law 195, 80th Congress, 1st Session, $1,000,000 was authorized each year for water consumed by the Federal Government. Public Law 364, 83rd Congress, 2nd Session, 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 within the District of Columbia at the rates applicable to other consumers in the District of Columbia. For water used outside the District, the rates applicable are those charged to the respective local jurisdictions within which the Federal facilities are situated. Operations 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, Virginia; and to Federal establishments in the District of Columbia, Arlington County, Virginia and Montgomery and Prince Georges counties in Maryland. Total consumption for the year was 74,583 million gallons; the maximum daily consumption was 279.5 million gallons and average daily consumption was 204.3 million gallons. Average per capita consumption was 191.3 gallons per day. The average amount furnished Arlington County and Falls Church, Virginia was 40.0 million gallons per day. The D.C. Water Fund was reimbursed in the amount of $1,762,064 for water furnished to the Virginia communities. Maryland communities were supplied an average of 46,575 gallons per day during fiscal year 1974 by the District of Columbia through connections to the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission system. On June 23, 1952, fluoridation equipment was placed 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 44 Jackson Units and the average Most Probable Number of coliform bacteria was 8,961. After treatment, the average turbidity of the filtered water was 0.11 and the average Most Probable Number of coliform bacteria per 100 milliliters was 0.15. The average calcium carbonate alkalinity of the filtered water was 69 P.P.M. and the average pH value was 7.8. Average hardness was 122 P.P.M. Analyses were made for coliform bacteria on 119,996 tubes of Lactose broth inoculated with water taken from 208 sampling points in the collection, purification, and distribution systems. Approximately 98,800 physical and chemical tests were made on 10,457 water samples from the supply and distribution system. Fluoride content of 4,095 water samples was determined. During fiscal year 1974, direct operating cost of water treated and delivered to system per million gallons was $69.79. Similar costs during fiscal year 1973 were $65.23 per million gallons. Visitors: During the year, 591 persons toured the water supply facilities, including 46 from foreign countries. Control: All funds were expended in conformity with legislative provision contained in the annual appropriation act which is as follows: 4-25 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 "Nothing herein shall be construed as affecting the superintendence and control of the Secretary of the Army over the Washington Aqueduct, its rights, appurtenances, and fixtures connected with the same, and over appropriations and expenditures therefor as now provided by law." Condition at end of fiscal year. The intakes, conduits, reservoirs, filter plants, pumping stations, mechanical equipment, and structures were generally in good condition. During maximum demand periods, the Little Falls raw water pumping station was operated to augment the raw water supply provided by the gravity-flow conduits. Construction work authorized with "no year" funds not previously reported as completed was as follows: New shops and storehouses, Dalecarlia, 26 percent; Great Falls intake structure, 99 percent; flood and water quality protection, Dalecarlia, 99 percent; emergency pumping from Potomac River estuary, 9 percent. Funds have been authorized in the FY 1975 budget for planning of water treatment plant extensions and improvements at Dalecarlia and McMillan and for Plant Major Replacements and Rehabilitation. 4-26 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.

Aberdeen Creek is a tidal estuary entering the northeast side of York River about 10 miles upstream.from Yorktown, Va., and 17 miles downstream from West Point, Va. The Creek lies in the center of and entirely within Gloucester County. (See U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 78 and 498.) Previous projects. For details, see page 356 of Annual Report for 1962. Existing project. This provides for a channel 6 feet deep at mean low water and 80 feet wide from that depth in York River into Aberdeen Creek for a distance of about 0.9 mile with a turning basin of the same depth, 400 feet wide and 450 feet long at the upper end. The channel and turning basin were dredged in 1962, from 5 September to 20 October, when 200,290 cubic yards of spoil were removed. The channel has filled to the point that the controlling depth in the center of the channel is 1.9 feet m.l.w., based on a survey made in August 1973. The mean range of tide is about 2.4 feet with estimated variations, induced by storms, of from 2.5 feet below to 7 feet above mean low water. (See Table 5-8 for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. For details, see page 356 of Annual Report for 1962. Terminal facilities. There are several small privately owned docks of wooden construction located on Aberdeen Creek and an oyster shucking house with a dock at the upper end of the turning basin. Limited transfer facilities are available at this dock. A marine railway is also located on the creek. With the construction of the public dock required by local cooperation, these facilities are considered adequate for present and reasonably prospective commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance engineering and design were accomplished in preparation for award of a contract for maintenance dredging of the project. Maintenance engineering and design and supervision and administration amounted to $13,690. Condition at end of fiscal year. The existing project was completed 20 October 1962. A maintenance dredging contract was awarded on 28 June 1974, with work to start in October. 2. ATLANTIC INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY BETWEEN NORFOLK, VA., AND ST. JOHNS RIVER, FLA. [NORFOLK DISTRICT] Location. Two inland water routes approximately paralleling Atlantic coast south of Norfolk, Va., between a point in Southern Branch of Elizabeth River, Va., 2,500 feet upstream of Norfolk & Western Railway bridge and Virginia-North Carolina State line in North Landing River, a distance of 27.2 miles; and 64.6 miles between mouth of Deep Creek, Va., and mouth of Pasquotank River, N.C. These routes are shown on Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 452, 1227, 829, and 830. Previous projects. For details, see page 476 of Annual Report for 1938. Existing project. A channel 12 feet deep at mean low water and 90 to 250 feet wide following Southern Branch of Elizabeth River, 5.2 miles, Virginia Land Cut, 8.3 miles, and North Landing River, 13.7 miles; and construction of a tidal guard lock at Great Bridge, Va. It also provides channels 10 feet deep at mean low water and 80 to 100 feet wide in Deep Creek, 3.1 miles, Turners Cut, 4.3 miles, and Pasquotank River, 35.1 miles; maintaining Dismal Swamp Canal, 22.1 miles, to about 9 feet deep mean canal level over a width of 50 feet; protection of banks in Turners Cut with sheet piling, and cutting certain sharp points in Pasquotank River tO shorten its course. (See Table 5-C at end of chapter on Data Relative to Completed Locks included in Project.) Project includes operating and care of completed locks, dams, and bridges, under maintenance. Southern Branch of Elizabeth River and Deep Creek sections of the two routes are tidal, mean range being about 3 feet with extremes of minus 3.5 and plus 9.6 feet. Remaining sections are nontidal with fluctuations of 1 to 2 feet in level due to winds. Cost for new work for completed project was $3,396,276. Protection to canal property at Great Bridge portion is considered inactive and excluded from foregoing cost. Estimated cost of this portion (1954) is $265,000. (See Table 5-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. None required. Terminal facilities. Existing facilities are considered adequate. See Annual Report for 1970. Operations and results during fiscal year. Operation and ordinary maintenance of the project, consisting of real estate management services, condition and operation studies operation and care of the locks, bridges, 5-2 NORFOLK, VA., DISTRICT spillways, wharves, canal plant, grounds, roads, buildings, etc., with Government plant and hired labor, were carried on during the year at a cost of $904,173. An emergency contract for repairs to the North Landing Bridge was issued on 17 April 1974, after the bridge was struck by tug pushing barge while bridge was still in closed and locked position on 16 April 1974. The contract was completed 7 May 1974 at a cost of $30,131. A contract awarded in fiscal year 1972 to rehabilitate the north back wall at Great Bridge Lock was completed 3 February 1974 at a cost of $182,493. A contract awarded in fiscal year 1972, to modernize vehicle traffic control system on the North Landing Bridge was completed, 7 December 1973, at a cost of $15,921. A contract for the lock area lighting at Great Bridge Reservation was awarded 1 May 1974 with work to commence 14 June 1974. A contract for water distribution and service lines at Great Bridge Reservation was awarded 12 June 1974 with work to commence 26 July 1974. Permanent operating equipment to be used on both routes, was purchased at a direct cost of $6,883. 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 $15,706. Maintenance repairs to bulkheads on both routes, with Government plant and hired labor, were accomplished at a direct cost of $1,068. 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 $74,292. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is complete. For construction details, see Annual Report for 1966. 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 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. The Norfolk District allocated $2,500 for support of a sea lettuce study which was conducted by the Virginia Institute of Marine Science. Optimum growth conditions for light, salinity, and temperature have been established with unialgal cultures under laboratory conditions. On the Walker Dam Impoundment, Chickahominy River, Virginia during the week of July 9-13th, 1973, approximately 300 acres of the Reservoir were treated with a 50:50 mixture of diquat and potassium endothall at a rate of approximately 1.5 gal/surface one. In order to evaluate the effects of the herbicide application, two aquatic plant research projects have been initiated. The first project, entitled "Aquatic plant control using herbicides in a large potable water supply reservoir" is being conducted by the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife Sciences of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University with a funding level of $15,000 per year for a period of three years. The second research effort, entitled "A determination of the effects on phytoplankton and other selected parameters induced by an herbicide application to Chickahominy Reservoir," is being conducted by the Virginia Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries on a cost-sharing basis for a period of three years. The total Federal share of this project is $30,000. Condition at end of fiscal year. Additional sea lettuce sutdies are being conducted in an attempt to verify the results obtained by using sewage effluents taken from different treatment plants and to determine the stimulating effects of a 5-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 hypothetical effluent which will be derived from a "pilot" treatment plant under consideration by the Hampton Roads Sanitation District Commission. The first year of each of the two projects referenced above has been completed. On a continuing basis, the physical, chemical and biological characteristics of the reservoir after herbicide application are being monitored. It is anticipated that the research efforts underway will evaluate the ecological and physiological changes associated with the herbicide application. The information derived from these studies will provide much needed data regarding the applicability of treatment methods to other similarly affected waters, as well as providing substantial information regarding the employment of diquat and potassium endothall in potable waters. 4. BALTIMORE HARBOR AND CHANNELS [NORFOLK DISTRICT] Existing project provides for deep water approach channels in Chesapeake Bay and branch channels in Baltimore Harbor. Northern portion including Baltimore Harbor is under jurisdiction of Baltimore District. Portion under jurisdiction of Norfolk District is more fully described below. 4A. CAPE HENRY CHANNEL, VA. Location. At mouth of Chesapeake Bay opposite Cape Henry. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 1222.) Existing project. A channel about 2.3 miles long, 1,000 feet wide, and 50 feet deep at mean low water through shoal at mouth of Chesapeake Bay opposite Cape Henry. Under ordinary conditions mean range of tide is 2.5 feet and extreme 3 feet. Extremes of irregular fluctuation due to combined effect of wind and tides, referred to mean low water, are minus 2 feet and plus 9.5 feet. (See Table 5-B for Authorizing Legislation.) 4B. RAPPAHANNOCK SHOAL CHANNEL, VA. Location. In lower Chesapeake Bay opposite mouth of Rappahannock River and about 50 miles northerly from Atlantic Ocean at entrance of Chesapeake Bay. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 1222.) Existing project. A channel about 9.9 miles long, 1,000 feet wide, and 50 feet deep at mean low water between contours of that depth in Chesapeake Bay, opposite Rappahannock River. Under ordinary conditions mean tidal range is 2.5 feet and extreme 3 feet. Extremes of irregular fluctuation, due to combined effect of wind and tides, referred to mean low water, are minus 2 feet and plus 9.5 feet. (See Table 5-B for Authorizing Legislation.) 4C. YORK SPIT CHANNEL, VA. Location. In lower Chesapeake Bay opposite mouth of York River and about 20 miles northerly from Atlantic Ocean at entrance of Chesapeake Bay. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 1222.) Previous project. For details, see Annual Report for 1932. Existing project. A channel about 18.2 miles long, 1,000 feet wide, and 50 feet deep at mean low water between contours of that depth in Chesapeake Bay opposite York Spit. Under ordinary conditions mean tidal range is 2.5 feet and extreme 3 feet. Extremes of irregular fluctuation, due to combined effect of wind and tides, referred to mean low water, are minus 2 feet and plus 9.5 feet. (See Table 5-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. None required. Terminal facilities. These three channels form the access between lower and upper Chesapeake Bay. Operations and results during fiscal year. Operation of the project including condition surveys and inspections and reports amounted to $12,858. Maintenance dredging with the U.S. Hopper Dredge. Essayons of Cape Henry Channel commenced December 8, 1973 and was completed December 13, 1973. The channel was again dredged March 20 and 21. There were removed 105,346 cubic yards of credited material, place measurement, at a direct cost of $87,291. Maintenance engineering and design and supervision and administration cost amounted to $17,599. 5. BLACKWATER RIVER, VA. Location. The river rises in Prince George County, near Petersburg, Va., and flows in a general southeasterly direction for 80 miles where it unites with the Nottoway River to form the Chowan River, which empties into Albemarle Sound. The portion under improvement extends from its mouth to Franklin, Va., a distance of 14.5 miles. (See U.S. Geological Survey, Holland 5-4 NORFOLK, VA., DISTRICT quadrangle, Va.) Previous projects. For details, see page 215 of Annual Report for 1969. Existing project. Provides for clearing the river between Franklin, Va., and the mouth, a distance of about 14.5 miles, of obstructions so as to afford a condition of easy navigation for boats of 7-foot draft and cut-off channels 80 feet wide and 11 feet deep at Cherry Grove and Georges Bend. The stream is non-tidal. The portion of the river under improvement is subject to freshets of short duration, causing rises 3 to 4 feet, but the general stage of the river remains for the greater part of the time at the elevation of Albemarle Sound, with which it connects. Estimated Federal cost (1972) for new work is $333,000. The 12-foot channel portion of the project is considered to be inactive and is excluded from the foregoing cost estimate. The cost of this portion was last revised in 1969 and was estimated to be $253,000. (See Table 5-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. Local interests are required to furnish all lands, easements, and rights-of-way and spoil-disposal areas, for initial construction and subsequent maintenance. Terminal facilities. There are about 1,300 feet of wooden bulkhead at Franklin, Va., and a marine railway that will accommodate vessels up to 100 feet in length, all privately owned. These facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Engineering and Design cost amounted to $3,534 with Supervision and Administration amounting to $691. A contract for the cut-off channels at Georges Bend and Cherry Grove was awarded 28 June 1974 with an estimated contract cost at $281,019. Condition at end of fiscal year. Snagging and clearing to provide a usable channel for 7-foot draft traffic is completed. Dredging the cut-off channels 80 feet wide to a depth of 11 feet, was to begin in October 1974. 6. CHINCOTEAGUE HARBOR OF REFUGE, VA. Location. Chincoteague is located on Chincoteague Island in Accomack County on the Atlantic Coast of Virginia, approximately midway between the entrance to Delaware Bay and the Virginia Capes. Chincoteague Island is separated from the mainland on the west by Chincoteague Channel and from the barrier island known as Assateague Island, on the east by Assateague Channel and Assateague Bay. The harbor of refuge is at the lower end of Chincoteague Island. (See U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart No. 1220.) Existing project. This provides for a channel 8 feet deep at mean low water and 60 feet wide from that depth in the canal at the lower end of Chincoteague Island into an anchorage basin of the same depth 235 feet wide and 650 feet long. The mean range of tide is about 2.6 feet. Greater fluctuations in water level are caused by high wind and storms. The cost for new work for the completed project was $49,239.

Beach Erosion Control 24. VIRGINIA BEACH, VA. Location. On Atlantic seaboard, 22 miles north of Virginia-North Carolina State line, 3.5 miles south of Cape Henry, and 19 miles east of Norfolk, Va. (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 (1973) is $2,499,600. Estimated cost to local interests is $2,755,700. 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 5-14 NORFOLK, VA., DISTRICT interests. (See Table 5-B for Authorized 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 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. An amendment to the original agreement, covering periodic nourishment, was entered into on November 1, 1963. Operations and results during fiscal year.

SCHEDULING FLOOD CONTROL RESERVOIR OPERATIONS John H. Kerr Dam and Reservoir and Philpott Lake projects, Roanoke River Basin Va. and N. C., began the fiscal year with both reservoirs above rule curve. At the beginning of the fiscal year, Kerr Reservoir was at elevation 302.26 or about 2.8 feet above curve. The reservoir rose to elevation 301.5 on July 2, 1973 and then fell until July 10, when rainfall caused a rise from 300.7 to 302.5 by July 17. The reservoir then began a gradual fall to reach 299.9 on July 27. In August, above normal rainfall caused the reservoir to fluctuate well above the rule curve with elevations between 299.9 and 302.3 to August 22. The reservoir level dropped, with some minor rises, from August 22 until October 4 with the elevation being 2.5 feet below rule curve on that date. The reservoir gradually filled to rule curve by October 26, then it fluctuated to near and above rule curve until December 19, 1973, at which time the low elevation for the year of 295.25 was reached. January and February were wet months causing the lake elevations to stay well above normal for most of that period. The reservoir peak for the year was at elevation 306.32 feet which occurred on April 10, 1974. The reservoir was near rule curve at elevation 299.76 on June 30, 1974. Philpott remained near or above rule curve for most of the fiscal year. The reservoir was about 0.5 foot above the rule curve at the beginning of the year and fluctuated near (above and below) rule curve until December 4. The lake began to rise until it reached an elevation of 975.46 on January 1, which was 4 feet above rule curve. The reservoir was virtually above rule curve for the remainder of the year. The peak elevation for the year was reached on April 7 at elevation 976.40. A low elevation for the year occurred on October 26 at elevation 970.87. The lake was at elevation 974.27 on June 30, 1974, or about 0.8 foot above rule curve. A minimum stage of 13 feet was provided at Weldon, N. C., during the entire striped bass spawning season. All inflows to Kerr Reservoir and Philpott Lake were controlled without having to spill over the spillways or sluices. A small amount of dump energy was sold at Kerr in April. Gross generation amounts for the year at Kerr and Philpott projects, respectively, were 476,727,400 kilowatt-hours and 28,443,890 kilowatt-hours of electrical energy. Total cost of functional operation for the fiscal year was $75,149 for John H. Kerr and $17,920 for Philpott. General Investigations 45. SURVEYS Fiscal year cost was $218,802, of which $45,384 was for navigation studies; $153,218 was for flood control studies; $17,588 for beach erosion studies; and $2,612 for National shoreline study and soil conservation service. 46. COLLECTION AND STUDY OF BASIC DATA Flood plain information studies, as authorized by Section 206,1960 Flood Control Act, as amended, comprise compilation and dissemination, upon the request of a State or a political subdivision thereof, of information on floods and flood damages, including indentification of areas subject to inundation by floods of various magnitudes and frequencies, and general criteria for guidance of Federal and non-Federal interests and agencies in the use of flood-plain areas; and provide advice to other Federal agencies and local interests for their use in planning to ameliorate the flood hazard. Total costs for the fiscal year were $194,036. Total costs to June 30, 1974, were $1;156,807.

The project is located in Charleston County, on the southeastern end of Wadmalaw Island near the village of Rockville. The estuarial creek flows generally southward into Bohicket Creek and from there into the North Edisto River and then into the Atlantic Ocean. * All costs 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 I REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 Existing project. The project provides for a stable all-tide channel 10-feet deep and 80-feet wide extending from that depth in Bohicket Creek to a turning basin in the vicinity of the uppermost dock at Rockville, a distance of 1.45 miles. The channel was dredged to a 2-foot overdepth and follows the general alignment of the natural channel. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. There are two marinas located on Adams Creek with docking and fueling facilities. There is also a ship repair yard which has docking and fueling facilities as well as a marine railway. All these facilities are privately owned but are open to all on an equal basis. Existing facilities are considered adequate for pre, sent and near future commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. None. Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project was completed in February 1973. Federal costs to date have been $125,697, including $17,700 for Detailed Project Report. 2. AQUATIC PLANT CONTROL, N. C. and S. C. Location. The project areas include 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 waterhyacinth, 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 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 duringfiscal year. New Work: The spraying operations began on 6 June 1973 and were stopped on 13 June 1973 because of flooding on all project streams. Spraying was resumed on 9 July and terminated for the season on 3 October 1973. During this period, approximately 30 miles of the Black River, 10 miles of Black Mingo Creek, and 15 miles of the Little Pee Dee River were treated. Spraying of the North Fork Edisto River which was postponed during early summer because of high water was made unnecessary because of feeding by alligatorweed flea beetles and/or the destruction of weed mats by flood water. Costs incurred were $15,372 for engineering and $7,719 for operations. Condition at end of fiscal year. Chemical spraying operations have brought approximately 400 acres of alligatorweed under effective control in the three basins cited above. Adaption of biological agents to local climatic conditions should result in additional acreage being brought under control. 3. 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.

Surveys and supervision costs were $239,201. An ongoing estaurine values study will be used to aid in evaluating the effects of considered waterway modifications and disposal of dredged material on fish and wildlife resources. Further, the study as developed by the committee, addresses three primary areas, namely, physical/chemical, biological and marshlands inventory/evaluation. Contracts have been awarded to various State and Federal agencies to accomplish the required studies. Upon completion, the results of the separate studies will be furnished to the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife for evaluation. The conclusions and recommendations of the Bureau will be furnished to the Corps for inclusion in the review of reports on Charleston Harbor. A claim against previous FY contract for construction of Daniel Island Dike was settled during FY 1974. Final payment and Government costs during FY 1974 were $996,084. 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 $40,298,- 702 for maintenance, a total of $43,627,051. 7-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 5. 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. Estimated cost of the project (1974) is $79,000,000, all Federal. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. None needed. 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 74. Engineering and design costs were $530,825; supervision and administration costs were $38,098. A public meeting was held in April 1974 to solicit public views on the project. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning was completed at the end of FY 74. The General Design Memorandum was completed in January 1972 and work is proceeding on schedule on other phases of the project. 6. 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. (See U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart No. 787.) Previous projects. For further details see page 1806 of Annual Report for 1915; page 549 of Annual Report for 1938; and page 442 of Annual Report for 1944. Existing project. The authorizations provide for a channel 27 feet deep with varying widths of 600 feet to 400 feet from the Atlantic Ocean to and including a turning basin at the U. S. Highway No. 17 bridge over Sampit River, a total of 17.9 miles. The project also provides for the continued maintenance to a depth of 18 feet and a width of 400 feet for the bypassed portion of Sampit River opposite the City of Georgetown. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Terminal facilities at the port of Georgetown, suitable for oceangoing vessels, consist of one marginal concrete pier and one of creosoted-timber construction. For intracoastal waterway traffic there are a number of smaller wharves and landings along the Georgetown waterfront on the old channel. For further details see Port Series No. 13,1970, Corps of Engineers. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: The pipeline dredge Hampton Roads performed maintenance dredging and experimental marsh construction in Sampit River and Upper Winyah Bay by contract during April-June 1974, removing 994,265 cubic yards of material for $727,113 and $74,350 for the marsh construction. Surveys and supervision costs were $291,767, which includes $171,007 for a model study. Condition at end of fiscal year. The existing project was completed in 1951. The jetties were completed in 1903-04. Federal costs for the existing project to date have been $4,615,903 for new work and $15,257,895 for maintenance, a total of $19,873,798. 7-4 CHARLESTON, S.C., DISTRICT 7. LITTLE RIVER INLET, N. C. AND S. C. Location. The project is located near the North Carolina-South Carolina state line. Little River enters the Atlantic Ocean at Little River Inlet at the state line and affords the only connection between the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway and the ocean along 68 miles of coastline between Shallotte, N.C., to Georgetown, S.C. Existing project. The project provides for an entrance channel 12 by 300 feet across the ocean bar; thence a 10 by 90-foot inner channel to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. The entrance channel would be stabilized by jetties extending seaward 3,200 feet and 3,000 feet long on the north and south sides of the inlet, respectively. Estimated costs of the project (1974) is $9,550,000 Federal cost and $1,890,000 non- Federal cost ($850,000 contributed funds and $1,040,000 for lands.) Local cooperation. In a letter dated 26 April 1971, the Horry County (South Carolina) Planning and Promotion Commission gave assurances of cooperation. Since certain lands to be furnished by non-Federal interests lie in North Carolina, a letter dated 4 August 1971 has been supplied by the Brunswick County (North Carolina) Commissioners, agreeing to provide to the United States the necessary project lands lying in North Carolina. Terminal facilities. There are seven marinas, numerous private docks, and several public boat ramps located in or near Little River. It is expected that existing facilities will expand and new ones will be added as demands for services exceed current capacity. Operations and results during fiscal year. Funds for FY 74 were $131,000. Of this amount, $75,000 was in the FY 74 budget and an additional $56,000 was made available during the year. 8. MURRELLS INLET, S.C. Location. The project is located on the coast of South Carolina in Georgetown County, about 13 miles southwest of the City of Myrtle Beach.

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 a similar percentage of the costs of the first periodic nourishment which was done between May 1971 and August 1971. Funds were appropriated for a second renourishment in FY 74 and matching funds were received to cover the State's share of the total cost. The contract for the work was not let in FY 74 since all bid amounts exceeded the Government estimate by an unacceptable amount. Operations and results during the fiscal year. New Work: Construction related studies of past performance of the completed portion of the project with consideration of possible future project modification was completed during the fiscal year. Plans and specifications were prepared for the second renourishment operation. FY 74 expenditures were $21,884. 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. Total Federal cost for the project through 30 June 1974 was $822,672 (excluding $377,778 contributed funds.) 17. BEACH EROSION CONTROL UNDER SPECIAL AUTHORIZATION Activities Pursuant to Section 108, Public Law 87-874 (Preauthorization). Work continued on detailed project reports on Garden City Beach (Horry and Georgetown Counties, S.C.) and on Powleys Island Beach (Georgetown County, S.C.). Costs incurred during FY 74 were $18,500 on Garden City Beach and $29,338 on Pawleys Island Beach. Work was completed on two reconnaissance reports, Isle of Palms and Edisto Beach (both projects in Charleston County, S.C.). $5,000 was spent on Isle of Palms and $5,125 was spent on Edisto Beach during the fiscal year. Flood Control 18. YADKIN RIVER, N. C. Location. The river rises on the eastern slope of the Blue Ridge Mountains in western North Carolina, flows generally easterly about 100 miles to the vicinity of Donnaha, North Carolina, thence southeasterly 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 floodcontrol 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 tworeservoir 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. 18A. W. KERR SCOTT DAM AND RESERVOIR, YADKIN RIVER, N. C. Location. W. Kerr Scott Dam and Reservoir is on Yadkin River, North Carolina, about 6 miles upstream from Wilkesboro. At full flood-control pool elevation (1,075 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 1,107.5 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 1,075; 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 acre-feet 7-7 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 are reserved for flood control, 33,000 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: Real Estate Cost (Code 711) of $6,138. Maintenance: Operation and maintenance cost $391,713. During the fiscal year the project had a visitation of 805,893. 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. O two occasions during FY 74, rainfall over the watershed above the dam was sufficient to produce streamflows that had to be controlled in order to reduce downstream flood damages to the maximum possible extent. The flood producing the maximum storage occurred in April 1974 when the pool elevation reached 1,041.4. This is a rise of 11.4 feet above the normal pool of 1,030.0. The other storm occurred in December 1973 and produced a pool elevation of 1,036.3. Estimated flood damages prevented for these two floods is $2,307,300. 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. 18B. 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 680 acres and the flood control pool about 1,335 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 August 1974. The Site Selection Design Memorandum was completed in May 1972 while the Hydrology and Hydraulic Analysis Design Memorandum was completed in March 1973. A public meeting was held in October 1972 to solicit the public's views on this project. Phase II General Design Memorandum is scheduled for completion in January 1976. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Estimated cost of the project (1973) is $13,900,000 of which $2,600,000 is reimbursable for water supply under the Water Supply Act of 1958, and $570,000 for recreation. Local cooperation. The State of North Carolina was requested to reaffirm their earlier letters of intent to fulfill the local cooperation requirements necessary for water supply and development of recreation facilities. The state replied favorably in June 1973 concerning local cooperation for recreation and in September 1973 concerning water supply. Operations and results during fiscal year. New Work: Preliminary planning for advanced engineering and design is continuing. Engineering and design costs were $124,621; supervision and administration costs were $24,968. Condition at end of fiscal year. Advanced planning studies are underway. 19. SUGAR AND BRIAR CREEKS, N. C. Location.

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. * All costs and financial statements for projects are listed at the end of this chapter. Other tables referenced in the text also appear at the end of this chapter. 8-1 Page 8-8 8-8 8-8 8-8 8-9 8-9 8-9 8-10 8-10 8-10 8-10 8-10 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 Previous projects. Prior projects for the Altamaha River have 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. 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. Published maps of these rivers are in the following documents: Altamaha River, House Executive ocument 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: Hired labor snagging work was performed by crane barge No. 2 with towboat Tomkins and during period February 11, 1974 to April 26, 1974 removed 2,444 snags at a cost of $29,346 including inspection and overhead. Other cost incurred, including condition and operation studies, hydrographic surveys, and water pollution and environmental studies, amounted to $16,935. (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, 1974, costs under the existing project were $60,847 for new work and $1,649,434 for maintenance, of which $13,533 were contributed funds, a total of $1,710,281. (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 waterhyacinth, 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. Georgia Game and Fish Commission, who maintain surveillance of potential aquatic plant problem areas, reported 20-30 acres of water 8-2 SAVANNAH, GA., DISTRICT hyacinth infestation in the Satilla River. The Board of County Commissioners, Camden County, Woodbine, Georgia, indicated that the lower reaches of the Satilla River have in recent years become so infested with water hyacinth that it is becomming a hazard to boating traffic. Cost during the fiscal year was $418. (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 Cumberland 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 land cuts 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 for maintenance dredging was awarded May 16, 1973 and during the period August 9, 1973 to November 19, 1973, contract pipeline dredge Arlington removed 1,364,262 cubic yards of shoal material from the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, at a cost of $626,410, including inspection, overhead and other government costs. A combined contract for dredging of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway and Brunswick and Darien Harbors was awarded March 18, 1974 and during the period of April 3, 1974 to June 1, 1974, the dredge removed 505,775 cubic yards of shoal material at a cost of $257,581, including inspection and other government costs. The government cost for condition and operation studies, water pollution and environmental studies amounted to $37,330. Survey of waterway and inspection reports amounted to $4,580. District overhead, negotiations and closings, and other miscellaneous costs amounted to $6,933. Distribution of Engineering Yard cost amounted to $6,959. Total cost for the year amounted to $939,- 793. (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, 1974, were $763,599 for new work and $9,017,- 569 for maintenance, a total of $9,781,168. (See Table 8-A for Cost and Financial Statement.) 4.

Flood Control 41. 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 authorized 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, 9-23 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 Hillsboro, and West Palm Beach 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 tirotection 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 933 miles of levees, 971 miles of canals, 34 pumping plants, 195 floodway control and diversion structures, 60 railroad bridge relocations, and 2 highway bridge relocations. 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-M. See also Table 9-N for principal features of locks and dams. Estimate of cost for new work (1974) is $497,000,000 Federal funds and $117,000,000 contributed funds, exclusive of river and harbor funds expended on previous projects. Local interests' costs in reviewing plans and specifications are expected to be $440,000. In addition, estimated cost to local interests of lands, rightsof- way, and relocations is $106,078,000. (See Table 9-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. (See Table 9-0 for local cash contribution.) Local interests must also: provide lands, rights-of-way, and spoil disposal areas; hold the United States free from damages; bear the cost of maintenance and operation of all works except those having to do with regulation of Lake Okeechobee and the main control structures of conservation areas; construct and maintain lateral drainage facilities; prohibit encroachment on flood-carrying capacity of the improved channels; and assume cost of construction of all new highway bridges, relocations of existing bridges, and alterations to utilities incident to construction of the project. In addition, for small boat navigation channels, local interests must provide, maintain, and operate adequate public landings, sanitary and access facilities, and establish regulations prohibiting discharge of pollutants into the waters of the locks and channels by users thereof. Assurances of local cooperation have been accepted by the District Engineer for all items of work authorized to date except those for the Small Boat Navigation feature added in 1970 under Section 201 of the Flood Control Act of 1965. Total estimated contributed funds amount to $117,000,000. Operations and results during fiscal year. (See Table 9-P for work accomplished.) Operating and care. a. Features completed under previous navigation project for Okeechobee Waterway and being maintained under this project are: a levee about 70 miles long following in general the south shore of Lake Okeechobee and a north shore levee 15.8 miles long; spillways at Ortona and St. Lucie locks; 5 hurricane gates; 20 gated" drainage culverts through the levee; and 16 spillways along St. Lucie Canal. b.

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 9-24 JACKSONVILLE, FLA., DISTRICT storage of water in Conservation Areas 1, 2, and 3. Regulation. a. General. For a 9-month period, September through May, south Florida again experienced a rather severe drought. The severity of this drought varied somewhat from one area to another as rainfall deficiencies varied from about 10 inches in some areas to 16 inches in others during the period. Within the Central and Southern Florida Project area, the Kissimmee River Basin's upper lakes as well as Water Conservation Area No. 1 were not severely affected by the drought. However, below normal runoff from the Kissimmee River Basin did have an effect on Lake Okeechobee water levels. By the end of May, high evaporation, below normal rainfall and inflows combined with above normal demands, had reduced the Lake Okeechobee water level to 10.98 feet m.s.l., 2 feet below normal, and within 0.86 foot of its all time low. The interiors of Water Conservation Areas 2A and 3A were completely dry by mid-April. Flows to the Everglades National Park across Tamiami Trail from the Big Cypress Swamp dropped to zero during portions of April and May. Water levels in the Everglades National Park also suffered although the Park continued to receive the full minimum deliveries it had requested from the Central and Southern Florida Project. Deliveries to the Park during the fiscal year totaled 261,500 acre-feet. The U. S. Geological Survey reported ground water wells in south Dade County during April and May were at or near all time lows. At the end of June water levels were reported still 1.8 feet below normal. Outside the project area, the area most affected by the drought was an area along the west coast of Florida comprising in part, Lee, Collier, Pinellas and portions of Hillsborough Counties. In these counties the cities of Ft. Myers, St. Petersburg, and Tampa experienced problems with severely depleted municipal water supplies. By the end of June, however, there was an almost complete turnaround, as a number of areas were experiencing flood conditions. For the first 24 days of June near normal rainfall brought little improvement in overall water conditions throughout south Florida. Then during the last week in June a low pressure disturbance developed in the Gulf of Mexico and tied into another low pressure wave moving down the state. Within a 3 to 5 day period the Pinellas County area received approximately 18 to 24 inches of rainfall with other counties along Florida's west coast receiving 8 to 12 inches. Some local flooding resulted along with major damage to roads and some bridges. Within the Central and Southern Florida Project area, rainfall amounts of 8 to 12 inches were recorded over much of the project area, raising lakes and streams from 1 to 3 feet within a week's time. The effects of this storm vwould have been greater had the area not been so dry prior to the storm. The only major flooding within the project area was in Hendry County west of Levees 1 and 2. Flood Control works for this area are now being designed following previous survey report authorization. Some emergency actions have been taken by the Corps of Engineers and the Flood Control District to try to help alleviate this flooding. In the Four River Basin area, rainfall ranging from 7 to 9 inches caused lakes in the Oklawaha River Basin to rise about 1 foot and sharply increased the runoff from this area. This runoff, combined with approximately 5.6 inches of rain over the Lake Oklawaha area, increased the Lake Oklawaha stage from 18.0 feet, m.s.l., on 24 June to 20.5 feet on 30 June. Rainfall in the area of Lake Tarpon totaled 19.3 inches 23 through 30 June, with 10.3 inches recorded on the 24th and 5.1 inches on the 26th. Stages on Lake Tarpon, controlled by project works Canal 531 and Structure 551, rose from 1.0 foot, m.s.l, on 23 June to around 3.0 feet, m.s.l., on 27 June. No major flooding was reported around the lake. b. Corps of Engineers (1) Lake Okeechobee. Lake Okeechobee water levels were below the seasonal regulation schedule throughout the entire 1974 Fiscal Year, thus requiring no regulatory releases for water control by the Corps of Engineers. At the beginning of the fiscal year, the lake was at elevation 12.25 feet, m.s.l., about 1 foot below normal. It rose from this point to a yearly high of 15.15 feet, m.s.l., on 24 October. This was 0.35 foot below the regulation scheduled stage for this date, but was about 0.5 foot above the normal stage. From this point through January the lake generally held near its normal levels. From February through May it dropped below normal, reaching its yearly low of 10.98 feet, m.s.l., on 31 May. This elevation was 2 feet below normal and 3 feet below the regulation schedule. From 1 through 24 June, the lake held at about 11.0 feet, m.s.l., and then during the last week of June rose to an elevation of 12.20 feet, m.s.1, on 30 June. Rainfall on the lake was below normal August through May. The departure from normal for this period totaled 16.05 inches below normal. During April and May, Lake Okeechobee again became the major source of water supply for portions of the lower east coast and the Everglades National Park. See Table 9-Q for more statistical information on Lake Okeechobee water supply and water use data. 9-25 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 (2) Water Conservation Area No. 1. Regulatory releases totaling 174,000 acre feet were made from this area to Water Conservation Area 2A, mainly from July through September. Water levels never rose more than a foot above schedule or fell more than 0.6 foot below schedule during the fiscal year. Rainfall was 9.18 inches below normal for the 9-month period September through May. Rainfall for the Fiscal Year totaled 51.03 inches which is 7.33 inches below normal. See Table 9-R for more statistical information on this area's water supply and water use data. (3) Water Conservation Area No. 2A. The C&SF Flood Control District again this year for the second year in a row requested permission from the Corps of Engineers for the complete draining of the interior of this area for the purpose of compacting and oxidizing bottom sediments and arresting plant succession, which was believed heading toward pond ecology. Permission for the drawdown was granted by the Office of Chief of Engineers on 7 November. At the beginning of the fiscal year, the area was totally dry except for local ponding and canal storage. It rose from an elevation of 8.05 ft., m.s.l., on 1 July to a yearly high of 13.25 ft., m.s.l., on 18 August. Regulatory releases totaling 100,000 acre-feet were made from the area during August and September. By the end of September the water level was about 0.5 foot below schedule. From this point, water levels held about normal through December, when the approved drawdown of the area began. During the drawdown period, from 26 December to 6 March, the Corps of Engineers discharged 88,100 acre-feet through Structure 11 into Water Conservation Area 3A. During this period the Flood Control District released approximately 14,100 acre-feet from Area 2A to the east coast for water supply. Rainfall for the area September through May was 16.54 inches below normal. See Table 9-R for more statistical information on this area's water supply and water use data. (4) Water Conservation Area No. 3A. This area was below its seasonal regulation schedule all of Fiscal Year 1974. At the beginning of the Fiscal Year the stage read 8.05 feet, m.s.l., 1.5 feet'below schedule. It rose from this point to a high of 10.15 feet, m.s.l., on 25 September and fell to a low of 6.15 feet, m.s.l., on 5 May. It ended the Fiscal Year at 8.55 feet, m.s.1. No regulatory releases were made from this area by the Corps of Engineers for water control purposes. A total of 261,500 acre-feet was released from the pool through S-12 to the Everglades National Park to meet the minimum deliveries to that area under PL 91-282. Rainfall for the area, September through May, was 16.12 inches below normal. See Table 9-R for more statistical information on this area's water supply and water use data. During April and May fires in Water Conservation Area No. 3A, the Big Cypress Swamp and in the extreme northern portion of the Everglades National Park burned thousands of acres of sawgrass and other vegetation. The greatest damage from the fires was from the loss of trees in the Big Cypress Swamp. An on-site inspection of Area 3A revealed little damage to this area from the fires, along with a minimal loss of wildlife. The fires did create a great deal of air pollution over most of south Florida. 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 847,100 acre-feet of water were pumped by the Flood Control District as follows: 239,700 acre-feet to Lake Okeechobee; 335,900 acre-feet to Water Conservation Area No. 1; 105,300 acre-feet to Water Conservation No. 2A; 166,200 acre-feet to Water Conservation Area 3A. In addition 361,200 acre-feet were discharged by gravity flow to Water Conservation Areas 2A and 3A, via pumping station gravity spillways. During the drought from October through May the Flood Control District released 507,880 acre-feet of water from Lake Okeechobee via the agricultural canals for irrigation and to hold optimum levels in the agricultural canals. During the Water Conservation Area 2A drawdown, 26 December through 6 March, 88,100 acre feet of nonregulatory water were transferred to Area 3A. This prevented any need for supplemental water to meet Everglades National Park or east coast demands until April. From April through June, however, a 'total of 92,420 acre-feet of water were transferred from Lake Okeechobee to Water Conservation Area 2A and 3A to maintain flood levels in the Conservation Areas canals and for release to the east coast and the Everglades National Park. Condition at end of fiscal year. The project was about 41 percent complete. Planning for the entire project began in November 1948 and has been continued. For construction completed prior to Fiscal Year 1973, see Annual Reports for 1960-1973. Construction completed under existing project during the fiscal year is set forth in Table 9-S. All Federally maintained features 9-26 JACKSONVILLE, FLA., DISTRICT of the project were generally in good condition at the end of the fiscal year. (For status of work under contract at end of fiscal year see Table 9-T.) Total Federal costs under the existing project through June 30, 1974, were $203,368,656 for new work, $8,867,614 for maintenance, and $1,684,115 for operation and care, a total of $213,920,385.

The authorized project provides for: (a) A channel 10 feet deep and 100 feet wide from the 10-foot depth in Apalachicola Bay, across St. George Island, to within 300 feet of the gulf shore, thence increasing uniformly in width to 200 feet at the shore and continuing with that width to the 10-foot depth in the Gulf of Mexico, with twin jetties extending from the dune line to the outer end of the channel; (b) an inner bar channel, 10 feet deep and 100 feet wide, in Apalachicola Bay; (c) a boat basin 200 feet by 880 feet and 9 feet deep at Apalachicola, Florida, with a connecting channel 9 feet deep and 80 feet wide through Scipio Creek to Apalachicola River; (d) a channel known as Link Channel, 10 feet deep and 150 feet wide, in Apalachicola Bay; (e) a channel generally parallel to the shore at Eastpoint, Florida, 6 feet deep, 100 feet wide, and about 6,000 feet long, with a connecting channel 6 feet deep and 100 feet wide to water at the same depth in St. George Sound; (f) a channel 9 feet deep and 100 feet wide through Bulkhead Shoals, connecting Apalachicola Bay with St. George Sound; and (g) a 6-foot by 100-foot channel about 1 mile long, generally parallel to the shore at Two Mile, Florida, with a 6-foot by 100-foot connecting channel to water of the same depth in Apalachicola Bay. Mean range of tide throughout this harbor is 1.6 feet. Extreme range, except during storms, is about 3 feet. Plane of reference is mean low water. (See Table 10-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Requirements have been fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Facilities consist of pileand- timber wharves which are considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: The U. S. Pipeline Dredge Guthrie, operating in the St. George Island Channel February 5-15, 1974, removed 23,129 cubic yards of material, and operating in the Two Mile Entrance Channel and main channels along the shore during the period 15 February to 5 March 1974 removed 308,591 cubic yards of material, all at a cost of $84,502. Channel condition surveys cost $2,320. Water quality studies cost $11,356. Engineering, design, supervision and administration cost $6,323. Condition at end of fiscal year. The existing project, authorized by the 1954 River and Harbor Act, was completed in 1959, including reimbursement to local interests for approved work, as authorized by the 1958 River and Harbor Act. Improvements at Two Mile were completed in September 1964. Total Federal costs under existing project as of June 30, 1974 were $910,683 for new work and $1,221,951 for maintenance, a total of $2,132,634. 2. AQUATIC PLANT CONTROL (RIVER AND HARBOR ACT OF 1965) Location. Navigable water, tributary streams, 10-2 MOBILE, ALA., DISTRICT connecting channels and other allied waters in Mobile District. Existing project. The authorized project provides for control and progressive eradication of water hyacinth, alligatorweed, Eurasian watermilfoil and other obnoxious aquatic plant growths from navigable water, 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 economical 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. Research and planning cost prior to construction shall be borne fully by the United States. (See Table 10-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Local interests shall agree to hold and save the United States free from claims that may occur from control operations and to participate to the extent of 30 percent of such operations. Requirements are being met in Florida, Louisiana, and Georgia. Operations and results during fiscal year. No field operations were performed during the fiscal year. Planning, environmental studies, engineering, design, supervision and administration cost $23,- 024. Condition at end of fiscal year. Surveys and investigations prerequisite to actual field operations and General Design Memorandum for the State of Alabama have been completed. Total Federal costs under the existing project as of June 30, 1974 were $198,146. Contributed funds for maintenance amount to $21,225. 3. BAYOU CODEN, ALA. Location. The project is located in a small tidal stream on the southern coast of Mobile County, Alabama, emptying into Mississippi Sound about 7.6 miles northwest of Cedar Point, the southern tip of western mainland shore of Mobile Bay. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 1266.) Previous project. For details see Annual Report for 1945, page 843. Existing project. The project provides for a channel 8 feet deep by 60 feet wide extending from La Belle Avenue bridge south for about 3,000 feet through the bayou to Portersville Bay, thence 8 feet deep by 100 feet wide extending about 2.3 miles westward across Portersville Bay to connect with the Bayou La Batre channel, and a turning basin 8 feet deep by 60 feet wide by 100 feet long on the west side of the bayou channel about 500 feet south of the La Belle Avenue bridge. Mean tidal range is 1.75 feet, and extreme, except during storms, is 3.5 feet. Plane of reference is mean low water. Estimated (1974) Federal cost for construction is $158,000 exclusive of $7,000 for non-Federal costs. (See Table 10-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Requirements of local cooperation have been fully complied with for all work authorized prior to 1969. For work authorized in 1969, local interests must furnish suitable lands for spoil-disposal and aids to navigation; provide adequate public terminals; provide adequate depths in berthing areas; regulate the discharge of pollutants into the water of the harbor; alter any utility facilities within the project area; hold the United States free from damages; and assume responsibility for all project cost in excess of $500,000. Local interests have indicated their willingness to comply. Small privately-owned pile-and-timber piers used in connection with fishing industry in this locality are adequate for existing commerce. A marina which will accommodate about 12 small recreational craft, and a slip with facilities for loading oyster shells are located near the mouth of the bayou, and are maintained by the Alabama Department of Conservation. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Engineering, design, supervision, and administration cost $13,902. Maintenance: Project condition surveys cost $80. Condition at end of fiscal year. That portion of the project authorized prior to the 1969 modification was completed in 1956. Construction authorized in 1969 has not been initiated.

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, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, 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 Apr. 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 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 water-hyacinth persists as the most serious aquatic pest. Control maintenance by the Corps of cleared areas continued in the Mermentau River, Bayou Lacassine, Bayou Queue de Tortue, 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 Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, and in the feeder areas to the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway in Coastal Louisiana. Louisiana Wild Life and Fisheries Commission crews continued maintenance efforts in the major 11-2 Page 11-31 11-32 11-32 11-33 11-33 11-34 11-34 11-34 11-34 11-34 11-35 NEW ORLEANS, LA., DISTRICT lakes and streams of north Louisiana, in the Atchafalaya Floodway, in the Louisiana portion of the Toledo Bend Reservoir, and the Pearl River Basin within Louisiana. During the fiscal year, 30,100 acres of water-hyacinths and alligatorweed were destroyed. State of Louisiana crews destroyed 18,800 acres of water-hyacinths and alligatorweed by chemical treatment. Corps of Engineers crews destroyed 11,300 acres of water-hyacinths and alligatorweed by chemical and mechanical methods. The alligatorweed flea beetle (agasicles) overwintered in large numbers in the southern part of the State and they have effectively reduced the total area of alligatorweed. The submersed aquatic weed, Hydrilla verticillati, was located and positively identified in Louisiana and chemical treatments were begun to prevent additional spread within the state. 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.

S. Highway 90 to Bayou Chene via Bayou Black and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. Estimated cost for new work (July 1974) is $18,900,000 Federal and $2,100,000 non-Federal. In addition, Coast Guard is to provide navigation aids at an estimated cost of $42,000. Local cooperation. The local agency must provide all lands, easements, and rights-of-way for construction and subsequent maintenance of the project and for aids to navigation upon the request of the Chief of Engineers, 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 and save the United States free from damages due to construction and maintenance of the project. In addition, the provisions of Public Law 91-646 and Public Law 91-611 are applicable. Assuring Agency: Morgan City Harbor and Terminal District. The Water Resources Act of 1974 modified the project to provide (a) 25 percent local contribution of the cost of spoil disposal retaining dikes, bulkheads, and embankments and (b) waiver of requirement (a) if political subdivisions are participating in and are in compliance with approved plan in area of dredging activity for construction, modification, expansion, or rehabilitation of waste treatment facilities, and if applicable water quality standards are not being violated. Basic assurance was approved on behalf of United States on Dec. 10, 1973, and amended assurance containing the applicable provisions of Public Law 91-646 and Public Law 91-611 was approved on behalf of United States on Feb. 25, 1974. Terminal facilities. Two large and three small public wharves at Morgan City are open for use by all without charge. In addition, there are numerous privately owned facilities 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 Boeuf and Black. Adequate acreage is available for expansion of existing terminals and construction of new terminals along Bayous 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 duringfiscal year. Plans and specifications were completed for the first two inland reaches. A contract for initial dredging in the Atchafalaya Bay and Bar Channel, La., was awarded this fiscal year.

Prior to 1902, Bayou Lafourche was an outlet of Mississippi River, its head being at Donaldsonville, La., 80 miles above New Orleans. It flows southerly 107 miles to Gulf of Mexico. (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 Larose to Gulf of Mexico with ajettied entrance at Belle Pass, and the closure of Pass Fourchon. These improvements are about 50.5 miles long, and the modification of Jul. 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- by 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 at Leeville from point where auxiliary channel connects with 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 1974) is $10,300,000 Federal and $4,340,000 non- Federal. In addition, Coast Guard is to provide navigation aids at an estimated cost of $34,000. 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 1974) is $733,000. Local cooperation. Original assurances received and accepted on all items of work in the project. Provisions of Public Law 91-611 are not applicable; however provisions of Public Law 91- 646 are applicable. Supplemental assurances covering Public Law 91-646 have been executed by the Jefferson Parish Council and Lafourche Parish Police Jury; however the Louisiana Department of Public Works has not executed supplemental assurances. 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 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. 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 11-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 production of Leeville oil fields to barges. Facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work by hired labor consisted of general engineering and planning. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of existing project was initiated in Fiscal Year 1939 and is 10 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 Jul. 14, 1960, was initiated in February 1963 and is 10 percent complete, with 12- by 125-foot channel completed in September 1963 from Leeville to 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 Jun. 30, 1974, was $2,095,789 of which $1,281,478 was for new work and $814,311 for maintenance.

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 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. Louisiana Department of Public Works has furnished assurances for maintenance and improvement. 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 the 11 local agencies involved has furnished assurances requested. Main objection to participation is requirement that local interests be responsible for alteration of utilities. Replacement of Vermilion Lock: The Vermilion Parish Police Jury was requested to execute an Agreement of Local Cooperation on Oct. 26, 1972, agreeing 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 and save 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 and comply with the provisions of Public Law 91-646 and Sec. 221 of Public Law 91-611. The Police Jury, by letter dated Dec. 6, 1972, stated that they could not execute the assurances because of lack of sufficient funds with which to comply. The Louisiana Department of Public Works has been 11-12 NEW ORLEANS, LA., DISTRICT requested to furnish assurance and should furnish same during Fiscal Year 1975. The Department is now coordinating efforts to obtain local sponsorship. 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, Apr. 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 small wharves open to all without charge. Otherwise facilities are confined to privately owned piers, wharves, or oil docks. Facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work by hired labor: Work on the Vermilion Lock GDM is scheduled for submission to LMVD early in Fiscal Year 1975. The GDM is essentially 80 percent complete and work is being prosecuted on the basis of a new lock 110 feet wide by 1200 feet long with a sill at -15.0, mean low gulf. Maintenance by hired labor: Real estate activities, condition and operation studies, condition surveys, and channel patrol continued. Locks, bridges, and waterways were operated and maintained. Replacement of bulkhead at Connely Property, Houma, La., commenced Jun. 10, 1974, and is 15 percent complete. Restoration of the south bank, East Bayou Lafourche, was accomplished during May with a total of 2,457 tons of quarry stone placed on bank. (a) Calcasieu Lock: Hired labor work during the fiscal year consisted of fair wear and tear damage repairs to the southwest and northeast guide walls. (b) Harvey Lock: Hired labor work consisted of maintenance work on fender system, replacement of drainage pipe, and repairs to the chain link fence.

Maintenance by contract: Dredging under one contract included removing 430,267 cubic yards of shoal material intermittently from the following locations: Wax Lake Crossover, Berwick Lock forebay, intersection Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (mile 98.3) and vicinity of Bayou Shaffer during the period Jul. 14 through Oct. 6, 1973. The contract dredge Lewis James removed 185,135 cubic yards of material from the Port Allen Lock forebay for the period Jul. 9 through Aug. 24, 1973. The dredges Pontchartrain and Congaree removed a total of 1,236,862 cubic yards of material from mile 94.0 to 125.0 from Aug. 4 through Oct. 3, 1973. The contract dredge Manchac removed 170,390 cubic yards of material at the Inner Harbor Navigation Canal and Harvey and Algiers Locks during the period Apr. 20 through Jun. 30, 1974. Two contracts were awarded and completed this fiscal year at the Inner Harbor Navigation Canal: One for installation of a chain link fence with four access gates and a second for installation of aluminum grating over the canal lock gates. A contract for repairs to the Florida Avenue Bridge commenced Jun. 1, 1974, and is 20 percent complete. Maintenance repairs under contract at the Harvey Lock were initiated Oct. 24,1973, and the work is 79 percent complete. A contract for dredging Atchafalaya River-Vermilion River Section, mile 145.9 to 174.9 (not continuous) was awarded in June but work has not commenced. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction was initiated July 1929 and project, as modified, is 50 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 Jun. 30, 1974, was $126,947,603, of which $58,544,075 was for new work, $31,934,621 for maintenance, and $36,468,907 for operation and care of locks and bridges. In addition, $340,159 for new work and $7,005 for maintenance has been expended from contributed funds. 14. HOUMA NAVIGATION CANAL, LA. Location.

(See Coast 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 flood flows; construction of a sectorgated control structure at Catfish Point, mile 24 above mouth of Mermentau River, for discharge of flood flows and control of tidal flows and saltwater 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 flood flows; construction of a sector-gated control structure in enlarged channel immediately north of abandoned Schooner Bayou Lock reservation for discharge of flood flows and control of tidal flows and saltwater intrusion; channel enlargement of North Prong of Schooner Bayou and Schooner Bayou Cutoff, 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, Apr. 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 petroleum and its products. A public wharf is located at Lake Arthur, La., 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. 11-15 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S.

None required, except for modification of project in connection with Mississippi River-Gulf Outlet, which is reported separately. Terminal facilities. Piers, wharves, or docks serve the Port of New Orleans. Most wharves on east or left bank parallel riverbank forming nearly a continuous covered quay about 10 miles long. Public wharves controlled by Board of Commissioners, Port of New Orleans (the Dock Board), cover 62 percent of improved waterfront. These facilities include a shipside grain elevator, general cargo and cotton wharves, fruit landings, bunkering facilities, terminal warehouses, railroad terminals, marine railways, and drydocks. (For further details see Port Series No. 20, "The Port of New Orleans, La." revised 1970.) A foreign trade zone is located in Port of New Orleans. City of Baton Rouge has a reinforced concrete dock for deep-sea vessels with mechanical-handling facility. Attached to downstream end of wharf is a floating wharf boat 231 by 40.5 feet, of 2,000-ton capacity. Facilities are served by a transfer boat and municipal terminal having a capacity of 40 cars per day. Private terminals for handling oil, grain, bauxite ore, and other products are at points on both sides of river between New Orleans and Baton Rouge. Facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. (For further details, see "Port Facilities" included in "Flood Control and 'Navigation Maps of the Mississippi River, Cairo, Ill., to the Gulf of Mexico, La.," published annually by Mississippi River Commission, and Port Series No. 19, vol. 1, "Port St. Joe, Fla., Pensacola, Fla., Baton Rouge, La., Panama City, Fla., Pascagoula, Miss., Lake Charles, La., Gulfport, Miss.," revised 1957.)

Assuring Agencies: Louisiana: Red River Waterway Commission has executed all required assurances. Texas: The Texas Water Development Board has stated that it does not possess the necessary authority with which to apply funds to this project. The Development Board suggested that the Cypress Valley Navigation District, the Northeast Texas Municipal Water District, and the Titus County Fresh Water Supply District No. 1 be contacted concerning the required assurances. Arrangements are being made for a meeting between representatives of the above three districts, the Water Development Board, and the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, to discuss sponsorship of this project, in Texas. Terminal facilities. Adequate facilities are to be provided and maintained by local interests. Operations and results during fiscal year. Economic reanalysis of project is being made by hired labor forces. Condition at end offiscal year. Construction has not been initiated. 26. REMOVING WATERHYACINTH, 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. Preventive 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 9,400 acres of water-hyacinth were treated by chemical and mechanical methods in Bayou Black, Lake Cataouatche and feeder streams, Lake des Allemands area, the Port Allen-Morgan City Route and Alternate Route of the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, 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. The vegetation was removed by hand crews, and vegetation movement was controlled by 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 chemical spraying supplemented by mechanical rotary saw-type destroyers for opening access paths through solidly jammed hyacinth mats. 27. WATERWAY FROM EMPIRE, LA., TO GULF OF MEXICO Location. Waterway from Empire, La., to Gulf of Mexico via Bayous Long and Fontanelle. (See Geological Survey, Empire quadrangle.) Existing project. Improvement provides for 11-23 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 construction and maintenance of a waterway, 10 miles long, from State-owned canal and lock at Empire, La., to Gulf of Mexico, to provide a channel 9 by 80 feet, and for initial construction of rubblestone jetties inshore of 6-foot-depth contour, with landward extensions thereof as required to prevent flanking, and for seaward extensions to 9-foot-depth contour if and when it becomes apparent that such extensions will be more economical than maintenance dredging of entrance channel. Normal range of tide is from 16 to 40 inches; hurricane tides may exceed 6 feet. Construction was completed at a cost of $1,068,142; except for an estimated $1,573,000 for extension of jetties to 9-foot-depth contour to be constructed if necessary. Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Operations and results during fiscal year. Hired labor forces conducted engineering studies and reconnaissance surveys. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is physically complete, unless at a later date it is found necessary to extend jetties to 9-foot-depth contour. Project construction was initiated in July 1948 and completed in June 1950, during which period the 9- by 80-foot channel from Empire, La., to Gulf of Mexico, 10 miles, was excavated by contract. A total of 4,061 linear feet of jetties was constructed by contract to 6-footdepth contour, 1,818 linear feet on east jetty and 2,243 linear feet on west jetty, from Jun. 23, 1949, to Feb. 18, 1950, and Feb. 2 to Mar. 1, 1971. 28. RECONNAISSANCE AND CONDITION SURVEYS Reconnaissance and condition surveys were conducted in April and May 1974 on the Amite River, Bayou Manchac, and Tangipahoa River; and in April 1974 on Bayou La Loutre and Bayou Yscloskey, La. Reconnaissance of other inactive projects was conducted throughout the year. Costs for the fiscal year were $4,800. 29. OTHER AUTHORIZED NAVIGATION PROJECTS See Table 11-F. 30.

Franklin and vicinity: Enlargement of about 11-31 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 21.6 miles of back levee and construction of about 3.1 miles of new levees to effect a complete closure of area to be protected, construction of one floodgate and five gravity drainage structures, and alteration of existing drainage facilities where necessary. Normal range of tide is 1.6 feet. Storm and hurricane tide have produced elevations up to 10 feet while northerly storms during winter depress the gulf level as much as 3 feet below mean sea level. During low water periods on Atchafalaya River, generally September through November, the effect of tide extends about 35 miles above Morgan City. Estimated cost for new work (July 1974) is $7,090,000 Federal and $3,110,000 non-Federal, including $620,000 cash contributions. Local cooperation. Local interests must furnish lands, easements, and rights-of-way for construction and future maintenance, provide relocations and alterations required for project; provide all interior drainage and pumping plants required for reclamation and development of protected areas; maintain and operate all project works after completion, provide assurances that encroachment on existing ponding areas will be prevented unless substitute storage capacity or equivalent pumping capacity is provided promptly, without cost to the United States; contribute in cash or equivalent work not less than 30 percent of project cost, the final determination to be made after construction is complete; and hold and save the United States free from damages due to construction works. Assuring Agency: St. Mary Parish Police Jury. Basic assurances for the project have been furnished. Assuring agency has not executed required amended assurance containing the provisions of Public Law 91-646 and Sec. 221 of Public Law 91-611 because of lack of funds with which to comply.

RED RIVER BELOW DENISON DAM (NEW ORLEANS DIST.) Location. On Red River and its tributaries below Denison Dam, in Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas, and Louisiana. (See Geological Survey State maps and folio "Maps of Red River"-1958 edition.) Existing project. Flood Control Act of 1946 approved general plan for flood control on Red River below Denison Dam, Tex. and Okla., which provides for construction of six flood control reservoirs in combination with existing or authorized Federal and non-Federal levee improvements, modified as required, and channel stabilization at locations where levee setbacks are impossible or uneconomical. This act further authorized incorporation of several separate existing projects for flood control along Red River below Denison, above jurisdiction of Mississippi River Commission, into this project. By Public Law 780, 83d Cong., 2d sess., as amended by Public Law 218, 84th Cong., lst sess., and Public Law 645, 86th Cong., 1st sess., plan of improvement was amended to include additional projects as indicated in following lists of reservoirs and local protection works considered in general flood control plan for the Red River below Denison Dam, and existing flood control projects incorporated into project in New Orleans District. (See Table 11-H for new projects and Table 11-I for incorporated projects.) Local cooperation. See individual reports herein. 46. RED RIVER BELOW DENISON DAM, LEVEES AND BANK STABILIZATION (NEW ORLEANS DIST.) Location.

Maintenance of a channel 4.5 feet deep by 100 feet wide between mouth of river and Batesville, 296 miles, by snagging, dredging, and contraction works. Maintenance discontinued after Fiscal Year 1951 due to negligible traffic; dredging and snagging resumed in 1962. White River channel from mouth to mile 10 has been improved and is being maintained as part of the Arkansas River Project. The existing project was modified by OCE, Mar. 11, 1968, under authority of Sec. 107 of the 1960 River and Harbor Act, as amended, to provide a 125-foot-wide channel with minimum depth of 5 feet and a depth of 8 feet at a stage of 12 feet on the Clarendon gage. This modification was completed in October 1969 at a cost of $169,994, including $20,245 for preauthorization studies. Increased dimensions extend from the mouth to Augusta, at mile 199. Resumption of maintenance authorized by OCE, Apr. 15, 1971, for a 4.5- by 100-foot channel. During Fiscal Year 1974, maintenance was performed in this reach, and the channel was increased to authorized dimensions. Local cooperation. Local interests are required to furnish lands, easements, rights-of-way, and excavated material disposal areas; hold and save the United States free from damages due to construction and subsequent maintenance; relocate utilities as required; provide terminal facilities for all on equal terms; and construct necessary access roads and shore facilities. They have given assurances that they will comply with all requirements of local cooperation. Terminal facilities. Consist of terminals for handling riprap stone, sand and gravel, logs, soybeans, wheat, and rice at Augusta (mile 198); logs, soybeans, wheat, and rice at Des Arc (mile 143); logs, lumber, soybeans, and rice at Clarendon (mile 99); soybeans at Crocketts Bluff (mile 68); soybeans, rice, sand, gravel, and crushed stone at St. Charles (mile 57); riprap stone at Benzal (mile 7.5), and public launching ramp at I-40 bridge. Operations and results during fiscal year.

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 RIVER BETWEEN OHIO AND MISSOURI RIVERS, MO. AND ILL. 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. The existing project 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 total Federal cost (1974) of $142,000,000; (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 total Federal project cost (1974) of $57,700,000; 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 total Federal project cost (1974) is $204,053,000. 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 H. Doc. 669 (76th Cong., 3d sess.) for report of Chief of Engineers dated Feb. 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. Terminal facilities. Existing facilities are 14-2 ST. IOUIS, MO., DISTRICT considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Regulating Works: Contract work was continued on stone dike construction as was engineering and design and supervision and administration. Chain of Rocks: Construction of guidewalls and tie down of upper sill is under way. Maintenance. Work consisted of 25,070 feet of dike repair and 39,360 feet of revetment repair. U. S. plant and hired labor performed channel dredging at 24 locations, removing 2,056,400 cubic yards of material from main channel. Channels dredged had a combined length of 9.9 miles, an average width of 290 feet, and an average gain in depth of 3.7 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 inception. Project on Dam 27 is complete. Work on the project is about 48 percent complete. Work required to complete the project includes construction of 190,000 linear feet of dikes; 203,150 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 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 is generally closed by ice the 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 the latter part of August, during which time project channel depths generally prevail without dredging. Mean stage of river, St. Louis gage, was 20.43 feet for Fiscal Year 1973 and 17.58 feet for Fiscal Year 1974. A study has been completed which determined that a substantial increase in work is necessary to assure a dependable 9-foot project depth. This has caused the cost estimate for regulating works to be raised from $81,000,000 to $142,000,000. 5. OTHER AUTHORIZED NAVIGATION PROJECTS See Table 14-C. 6. ALTERATION OF BRIDGES See Table 14-D. Flood Control 7. COLUMBIA DRAINAGE AND LEVEE DISTRICT NO. 3, ILL. Location. In Monroe County, Ill., on left bank of the Mississippi River between river miles 156 and 166 above mouth of the Ohio River. (See St. Louis, Mo., map published by Army Map Service, scale 1:250,000.) Previous project. For details, see page 653 of Annual Report for 1959. Existing project. Project area contains about 13,600 acres protected from major floods of the Mississippi River, Columbia Creek, and Fountain Creek by levees. However, when Mississippi River stage exceeds 20 feet on the St. Louis, Mo., gage, substantial damage results from impoundment of precipitation which falls on the area, runoff from adjacent hill land, and Mississippi River seepage. The 1962 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 543, 87th Cong., 2d sess.) provides for construction of two pumping stations to reduce interior flooding. Estimated cost (1974) is $1,860,000. Local cooperation. Local interests must provide lands, easements, and rights-of-way for construction; hold and save the United States free from damages; maintain and operate project after completion; prevent encroachment on improved channels and ponding areas and, if ponding area and capacities are impaired, provide substitute storage capacity or equivalent pumping capacity promptly without cost to the United States and comply with applicable provisions of Public Law 91-611 and Public Law 91-646. The proposed sponsors, the Commissioners of the Columbia Drainage and Levee District No. 3, have furnished a letter of intent to furnish the required assurances. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is complete. Condition at end of fiscal year. General design memorandum is being revised in accordance with recommendations of higher authority. 8. EAST ST. LOUIS AND VICINITY, ILL. Location. Project is 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 bottomlands 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.) 14-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 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 (1974) of work under this authorization is $22,551,000. 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 total Federal project cost of work under this authorization is $28,100,000 (1974), $16,600,000 for Cahokia Creek Dam, and $11,500,000 for Interior Flood Control. Non-Federal cost is $10,400,000. Local cooperation. Local interests have fully complied with the requirements of local cooperation for work under the 1936 authorization. For work authorized by Flood Control Act of 1965, local interests must provide lands, easements, and rights-of-way for construction; hold and save 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 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 partial protection from the larger floods. The State of Illinois has agreed to sponsor the interior drainage project and the low water dam. In addition to requirements listed above, the sponsor would have to comply with the applicable provisions of Public Law 91-611 and Public Law 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. Planning was continued on project modifications authorized by Flood Control Act of 1965. Condition at end of fiscal year. Work authorized by Flood Control Act of 1936 is essentially complete. 9. HARRISONVILLE AND IVY LANDING DRAINAGE AND LEVEE DISTRICT NO. 2, ILL. Location. The district is in Monroe County, Ill., on the left bank of the Mississippi River between river miles 141 and 156 above the mouth of Ohio River. (See St. Louis, Mo., map published by Army Map Service, scale 1:250,000.) Previous project. For details, see page 676 of Annual Report for 1957. Existing project. Project area contains about 27,800 acres protected from floods of the Mississippi River and Fountain Creek by levees. However, when Mississippi River stage exceeds 15 feet on the St. Louis, Mo., gage, substantial damage results from impoundment of precipitation which falls on the area, runoff from adjacent hill land, and Mississippi River seepage. The Flood Control Act of 1962 provides for construction of two pumping stations to reduce interior flooding. Estimated total Federal project cost (1974) is $3,250,000. Local cooperation. Local interests must provide lands, easements, and rights-of-way for construction; hold and save the United States free from damages; maintain and operate project after completion; prevent encroachment on improved channel and ponding areas and, if ponding areas and capacity are impaired, provide substitute storage capacity or equivalent pumping capacity promptly without cost to the United States and comply with the provisions of Public Law 91-611 and Public Law 91-646. Local interests have indicated their willingness to provide necessary cooperation. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preconstruction planning was continued to completion. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project constructed under authority of Flood Control Act of 1936 is complete. On modifications authorized by Flood Control Act of 1962, a contract was advertised for levee raising. 14-4 ST. LOUIS, MO., DISTRICT 10. KASKASKIA RIVER, ILL. Location. The river rises in Champaign County, Ill., about 5 miles northwest of Urbana, in eastcentral 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. The 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 levee 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 multiplepurpose 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 between Carlyle and New Athens in recommended 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 Athens. 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 complete on New Athens. Preliminary planning is essentially complete on Vandalia Drainage and Levee District No. 21. Proposed work on Dively Drainage and Levee District No. 23 was advertised. Maintenance. Continued on Carlyle and Shelbyville. Condition at end of fiscal year.

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 ,rowths, 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 $3,174 and $1,567. Reimbursement to State for Government's share of cost of $65,545 for eradication was made. In addition, the State performed $23,177 of eradication for which credit as work-in-kind was given. Condition at end of fiscal year. Aquatic plant control work continued in the Nueces River Basin, North Coastal Area, Guadalupe River Basin, Sabine River Basin, Trinity River Basin, Cypress Creek Basin, and the Neches River Basin. 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. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 1288). Previous project. For details see page 1017 of Annual Report for 1932. Existing project.

Under ordinary conditions, mean tidal range is about 1.5 feet, and extreme range is about 2 feet. All depths refer to mean low tide. To some extent, height of tides is dependent on the wind, and during strong "northers" in winter season, water surface in southern end of Laguna Madre may be raised 4 feet or more above mean low tide in the gulf. Estimated cost for new work is $21,564,000 Federal (Corps), excluding expenditures on previous projects, and non-Federal $2,077,000 including $1,683,258 contributed and $393,742 lands. (See Table 15-B for authorizing legislation). Local cooperation. Complied with except as required by section 101, 1960 River and Harbor Act. Non-Federal contributions, $1,683,258. Terminal facilities. Numerous terminal facilities for bulk and liquid cargo are available. (See Port Series No. 26, revised 1969). Facilities are adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Engineering and design and supervision and administration cost $7,695 and $31,879. Condition and operation studies, inspections and reports, and project condition surveys including real estate activities cost $33,916. (See Table 15-H for dredging operations.) Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project is about 50 percent complete. Work remaining consists of widening Brownsville Channel from Goose Island to Brownsville turning basin, deepening southeast corner of Brownsville turning basin to 36 feet, and extending north jetty 1,000 feet. (See Table 15-E for total cost of existing project to June 30, 1974.) 3. CEDAR BAYOU, TEX. Location. The bayou is about 30 miles long. It flows to the south and empties into northwest corner of upper Galveston Bay, about 1.5 miles below mouth of San Jacinto River and about 28.5 miles north of Galveston, Tex. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 1282.) Previous project. For details see Annual Report for 1938. Existing project. (See Table 15-F for existing project dimensions provided for in this waterway.) Project also includes jetties at mouth of bayou provided for under previous project. Under ordinary conditions mean tidal range is about 0.6 foot and extreme range 1.2 feet. Height of tides is dependent largely on the wind, and during strong "northers" in winter season, water surface may be depressed 2 feet below mean low tide. Channel 15-2 GALVESTON, TEX., DIST. from Mile 3.0 to Mile 11.0 is in inactive category. Channel from the inner end of the previously completed work to Mile 3.0, a point just above the U.S. Steel Company dock, has been reclassified to active. Estimated cost for new work $692,000 Federal (Corps) and $135,000 non-Federal, consisting of $25,000 cash contribution and $110,000 lands and damages. (See Table 15-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with except for the inactive portion. Non-Federal contribution estimated at $25,000. Terminal facilities. U.S. Steel Company has a barge dock at bayou mile 2.8, and there are a few small wharves, privately owned, for local use at various places along Cedar Bayou. Facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. Operation and results during fiscal year. New Work: Engineering and design and supervision and administration for dredging Cedar Bayou Mile -0.1 to Mile 3.0 cost $19,365 and $4,007. Maintenance: Engineering and design and supervision and administration totaled $379 and $71. Condition and operation studies, and inspections and reports, cost $210. Condition at end of fiscal year. Work remaining to complete existing project exclusive of inactive portion is dredging channel from Mile -0.1 to Mile 3.0. A contract for dredging from Mile -0.1 to Mile 3.0 was awarded June 25, 1974. Channel was complete to project dimensions from Houston Ship Channel to first bend in Cedar Bayou above the mouth in 1931. (See Table 15-E total cost of existing project to June 30, 1974.) 4. CHANNEL TO PORT BOLIVAR, TEX. Location. Port Bolivar is at end of Bolivar Peninsula and 4 miles north of city of Galveston. Channel connects the port with channel in Galveston Harbor. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 520). Previous project. For details see page 1856 of Appendix to Annual Report for 1915. Existing project. Existing project dimensions for channel are shown in Table 15-F. (Also see Table 15-B for authorizing legislation). Under ordinary conditions mean tidal range is about 1.3 feet and extreme range about 2 feet. Height of tides is dependent largely on the wind, and during strong "northers" in the winter season water surface may be depressed as much as 2 feet below mean low tide. Enlargement of turning basin from 1,000 to 1,600 feet is inactive. A channel 14 feet deep, 200 feet wide, and approximately 950 feet long is maintained across the east end of the turning basin to accommodate the Galveston- Port Bolivar ferry. Local cooperation.

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-F 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) $45,468,000, exclusive of amount expended on previous projects; and non-Federal $11,265,300, including $3,118,072 contributed funds and value of useful work performed, $1,514,228 lands, $4,648,000 relocations and $1,985,000 other costs. In addition, non-Federal cost to levee disposal areas on the 45-foot project is estimated at $232,000. (See Table 15-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with except for provisions of Sec. 101 of 1968 River and Harbor Act. Non-Federal contributions estimated at $3,118,072, excluding the $232,000 for construction of leveed disposal areas on the 45-foot project. Terminal facilities. Terminal facilities on Harbor Island at head of Aransas Pass, Ingleside, Corpus Christi, La Quinta, Avery Point, and Viola, are considered adequate for existing commerce. (See Port Series,No. 25, revised 1968, Corps of Engineers.) Operations and results during fiscal year. New Work: Engineering and design and supervision and administration for the 45-foot project cost $107,147 and $249,203. Cost for a modification to a dredging contract completed in FY 1973 was $7,442. (See Table 15-H for dredging operations.) Maintenance: Engineering and design and supervision and administration cost $32,804 and $97,368. Condition and operation studies, and inspections and reports, including real estate activities cost $48,529. Miscellaneous maintenance including repair of directional signs, and channel reference lines by hired labor totaled $393. (See Table 15-H for dredging operations.) Condition at end of fiscal year. The project is about 56 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 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, dredging of La Quinta Channel to 40 feet was completed in June 73, entrance and jetty channels have been dredged to half width at project depth, and dredging of channel from Harbor Island to mile 8.5 at 45-foot depth has been completed. Completion of La Quinta Channel to 45 feet will be by separate contract. (See Table 15-E for total cost of existing project to June 30, 1974.) 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 consists of two overlapping sections. The 15-4 GALVESTON, TEX., DIST. one on the east side of the realigned entrance channel has a length of 830 feet and the second, located on the west side of the entrance channel, has a length of 1,290 feet.

ALBUQUERQUE DIVERSION CHANNELS PROJECT, N. 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 over river to an elevation of 10,692 feet above mean sea level. (See Geological Survey Map, Albuquerque, N. Mex., quadrangle, scale 1:62,500.) *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 __ REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 Existing project. For description of completed improvement and authorizing legislation see Annual Report for 1973. Federal cost is $17,300,000. Non-Federal cost, including required cash contribution of $530,000 is $11,060,000. Local cooperation. For details of local cooperation requirements see Annual Report for 1973. Operations and results during fiscal year. Correction of design deficiencies in North Diversion Outlet Works were completed. Ordinary maintenance and operation continued. The North and South Diversion Channels prevented an estimated $1,120,000 annual flood damgages during FY 1973. The estimated total accumulated flood damages prevented through FY 1973 amount to $4,451,000. Peak floodflows recorded during FY 1974 were: North Diversion Channel near Alameda, 1,650 c.f.s. (190-acre feet) on 14 July 1973 and 1,860 c.f.s. (206 acre-feet) on 16 July 1973. Peak flows in the South Diversion Channel were 325 c.f.s. on 13 July 1973 and 630 c.f.s. on 16 July 1973. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of the north and south diversion channels began in March 1965, and was completed in March 1972. 2. ALPINE, TEX. Location. At Alpine, Paisano and West Moss Creeks in the vicinity of Alpine, Texas. (See Geological Survey Map, Alpine, Tex., quadrangle, scale (1:24,000. ) Existing project. The plan of improvement is an earthfill dam 6,300 feet long and 77 feet high on Alpine Creek for flood control, industrial and municipal water supply and recreation. A storage capacity of 12,710 acre-feet at spillway crest would include 4,530 acre-feet for flood control 5,100 acre-feet for water supply, 1,000 acre-feet for recreation and 2,080 acre-feet for sediment retention. West Moss Creek flows to the reservoir would be controlled by a saddle dam 2,100 feet long and 42 feet high. A diversion channel would intercept flows up to 4,000 c.f.s. from Paisano Creek, carry them about three miles, and empty into Alpine Lake. A diversion channel would also intercept West Moss Creek flows and diver them into the saddle dam area. A conveyance channel 3,900 feet long between the West Moss and Alpine Creeks would prevent permanent pooling behind the saddle dam on Moss Creek. Estimated Federal cost is $4,910,000.

Improvements are on Arkansas River and tributaries in Colorado. More definite locations and descriptions of individual projects are in following paragraphs and individual reports by projects. Existing project. The Water Resources Development Act of 1974 authorized flood control phase of comprehensive plan of development of water resources of Arkansas River basin above John Martin Dam in Colorado. (PL 93-251, 93rd Congress, H.R. 10203 March 7, 1974) The plan of improvement consists of channel and levee improvements on the main stem of the Arkansas River from Brewster to Florence (a distance of 6 miles) and from Pueblo to Las Animas (a distance of 76 miles); Fountain Dam and Lake; and local protection projects at Florence, Portland, Pueblo (Dry Creek), and La Junta (Anderson and King Arroyos). It was recommended that along with the construction of the local protection project of La Junta the proposed channelization project include a reach, designated as reach 2-urban, to provide complete flood protection for the city and urban area of La Junta. In addition, further studies will be made taking into consideration all structural and non-structural alternatives for flood-control and allied purposes to determine the environmental impact of the proposed improvements on the main stem of the Arkansas River from Pueblo to Las 17-2 ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT Animas. These studies would be conducted prior to detailed design and construction of the improvements, and a report would be submitted to Congress dealing with the environmental effects of the improvements and alternatives. Also authorized was the construction of a short reach of the channel project to be used as a part of the study to evaluate the environmental impact of the channel improvement. The reach selected as most appropriate for the study was the 7-mile reach upstream from the local protection project at La Junta. This project is designated as Arkansas River Channelization Test Reach. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Prior to construction, local interests furnish assurances satisfactory to the 'Secretary of the Army, fOr the local protection projects at Florence, Portland, Pueblo (Dry Creek), La Junta (Anderson and King Arroyos), La Junta (reach 2-urban, Arkansas River), and Arkansas River Floodway, Brewster to Florence, meet the following requirements: (1) acquire easements and rights-of-way necessary for construction of the project, including easements required for flood zoning purposes in ponding areas; (2) hold and save the United States free from damages due to the construction works and free from claims as a result of flooding from residual interior drainage during operation of the project; (3) maintain and operate the works after completion in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Army; (4) make any alteration to existing improvements, other than railroad bridges and approaches connected therewith; (5) periodically inform all concerned that some flooding will continue to occur due to flows greater than design magnitude; (6) prohibit encroachment on the capacities of the interior drains and ponding areas and the flood-carrying capacities of the improved channels, and if ponding areas and capacities are impaired, provide substitute storage or equivalent pumping capacity; (7) take steps to prevent encroachment upon existing defined waterways tributary to the project, by zoning or other means, such as enlargement or other modification of the existing waterway facilities, to prevent minor flood problems on these tributary waterways from developing into problems of serious proportions; (8) provide guidance and leadership in preventing unwise and uneconomical future development of the flood plain areas by encouraging prudent use of floodproofing, land regulation planning, or other flood plain management techniques to reduce flood losses; and (9) hold and save the United States free from water right claims due to construction and operation of the project. For additional requirements see individual projects on following pages. All operations and costs for projects in authorized plan are in individual reports following. 3A.

(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. For description of completed improvement and authorizing legislation see Annual Report for 1973. Federal cost was $15,811,171, including $2,279,326 for initiating construction of project under authority of Emergency Relief Appropriation Act of 1935. 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. No flood damages were prevented during fiscal year 1973; however, $374,100 sediment damages were prevented. Estimated total accumulated flood and sediment damages prevented by project through fiscal year 1973 were $963,100. Estimated irrigation benefits for fiscal year 1973 were $185,000. Estimated total accumulated irrigation benefits through fiscal year 1973 were $5,964,700. Pool evaluation at start of fiscal year was 4,198.35 feet with corresponding storage of 305,247 acre-feet. Total releases for fiscal year were 134,643 acre-feet. Releases of 127,982 acre-feet were made to Arch Hurley Conservancy District and 3,143 acre-feet to Bell Ranch. Pool elevation on June 30, 1974, was 4,180.58 feet with corresponding storage of 177,134 acre-feet. Sediment deposition during the year was 570 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. 5. DODGE CITY, KANS. Location. At Dodge City, Ford County, Kans., on Arkansas River about 130 miles downstream from Colorado-Kansas State line. (See Geological Survery 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 which will convey a flow of 40,000 cubic feet per second through city. Levees will be protected by flexible-type steel jetties. Four reaches of 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 $4,900,000. 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. Local interests executed an agreement on 21 May 1973 in compliance with Section 221, 1970 Flood Control Act and PL 91-646 Uniform Relocations 17-6 ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT Assistance Act of 1970. Estimated non-Federal cost is $920,000. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preconstruction planning was completed. The construction plans and specifications for the channels, canals, levees and floodwalls were approved in November 1973. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is complete. The award of construction contract dependent on acquisition of rights-of-way by local interests. 6. 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. A post-authorization change for the Northwest Area was submitted on 5 June 1973. The changed plan satisfies the 1.933 U.S. and Mexico agreement on limited tributary discharge into the Rio Grande in El Paso, Texas. Deferred elements now include five reservoirs, outlet conduit, and diversion channels 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 $32,100,000. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) 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 $12,100,000. Operations and results during fiscal year. Construction was continued in the Central Area. Construction of the Northgate and Range Dams and their associated channels and canals was completed in February, 1973. Construction began on Sunrise and Mountain Park System in September 1973. Feature design memoranda for the Pershing System and Mckelligon-Fillmore System of the Central Area was approved in August 1973. Phase I General Design Memorandum for the Northwest Area was approved in January 1974. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is complete. Planning for the Northwest Area is continuing. 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 construction for the Central Area portion of the project is about 26 percent complete.

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 $14,000,000. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. In addition to usual requirements, local interests must comply with the requirements of Section 221, 1970 Flood Control Act and PL 91-646 Uniform Relocation Assistance Act of 1970; 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; 17-7 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 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 10 August 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 on how 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 $3,000,000. Operation and results during fiscal year. Project planning continued during the fiscal year. The Hydrology Design Memorandum was approved in June 1973 and work is continuing on the Plan Formulation Memorandum, Phase I of the GDM. Condition at end of fiscal year.

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. For description of completed improvement and authorizing legislation see Annual Report for 1973. Federal cost is $15,182,389. Local cooperation. Section 2 Flood Control Act of June 28, 1938, applies. Operations and results during fiscal year. Routine 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 1973; however, $175,800 sediment damages were prevented. Estimated total flood and sediment damages prevented by project through fiscal year 1973 were $72,962,000. Estimated irrigation benefits for fiscal year 1973 were $233,000. Estimated total accumulative irrigation benefits through fiscal year 1973 were $18,897,000. Maximum pool elevation of 3,802.61 feet with corresponding storage of 31,274 acre-feet occurred on 31 March 1974. Total releases for fiscal year were 76,926 acre-feet. Releases attributed to irrigation benefits amounted to 36,134 acre-feet. Reservoir was empty July 1, 1973 until November 1, 1973 when winter storage began. Sediment deposition was 1,550 acre-feet. 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. The construction of additional recreation facilities was initiated during the fiscal year at a cost of $7,188 (710 funds). 9. 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 drainage 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 $2,620,000. (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. Local interests will also be required to comply with Section 221, 1970 Flood Control Act and PL 91-646 Uniform Relocation Assistance Act of 1970. In addition, construction will begin concurrent with or 17-8 ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT subsequent to replacement of United States Highway 50 bridge across Arkansas River. 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 $220,000. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preconstruction planning was completed. Plans and specifications completed. Land acquisition continued during the year. Condition at end of fiscal year. Plans and specifications are complete. Award of channel clearing, levee and floodwall contract dependent on completion of land acquistion. 10. 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 15,570 feet long and 67 feet high with both slopes protected. Discharges from dam will be conveyed downstream in channel of Alameda Arroyo to the Dona Ana Drain. Reservoir capacity is 13,200 acre-feet at maximum water surface and 8,203 acre-feet at spillway crest. Controlled drainage area is 28.9 square miles. Estimated Federal cost is $5,840,000. (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 the outlet channel from Las Cruces Dam to Dona Ana Drain to maintain a 290 cubic feet per second channel capacity; design construct and maintain a minimum 290 cubic feet per second multi-purpose outlet channel from the Corps' outlet channel along the existing Dona Ana, Mesilla and Del Rio Drains to the Rio Grande; inform citizens that residual flooding may occur downstream of the dam; and prevent encroachment on the reservoir area that would reduce its storage. The estimated non-federal cost is $1,710,000. Local interests signed on agreement satisfying all requirements on 15 December 1972. All lands have been acquired. 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. Operations and results during fiscal year. Major accomplishments during the fiscal year were the embankment contract and outlet channel work being continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction on the project was initiated in June 1973 and is about 40 percent complete. 11. 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 1,900 feet long and 210 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. Storage capacity at the spillway crest is 449,000 acre-feet which includes 82,000 storage, 200,000 acre-feet irrigation storage and 167,000 acre-feet flood control storage. Surface area of the reservoir at the spillway crest is 10,740 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 Estero's 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 17-9 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 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 $20,200,000. (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 stprage 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 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 submitted a formal protest of the agreement between U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and Carlsbad Irrigation District. The State Enginner approved the transfer or irrigation storage and was upheld by the Guadalupe County District Court on June 4, 1973. The opposing parties filed an appeal of the District Court decision on 15 October 1973. The Supreme Court of New Mexico heard oral arguments on 6 May 1974 and have not acted. The New Mexico State Attorney General opinion on 2 November 1973 stated the water rights transfer was not the dominant factor in the appeal but the size of the last call pool in Alamogordo Reservoir was in dispute. Operations and results during fiscal year. Construction of the project was initiated by the award of contract for access road Phase I in January 1974. The feature design memorandum for the outlet works, embankment, spillway and project buildings was approved on 20 November 1973. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is complete. Construction of the access road (Phase I) was initiated and is about 40 percent complete. No further real estate activities or construction awards will be made until Supreme Court has acted on the appeal by Fort Sumner Irrigation District. 12. PECOS, TEX. Location. At Pecos, Reeves County, Texas on the Pecos River streams and tributaries at mile 312. (Geological Survey Maps, Pecos East and Pecos West, quadrangles, scale 1:24,000.) Existing project. The authorized project consisted of a combination of diversions, floodways, and levees to protect the city and agricultural lands from floods originating on Hurd's Well Draw, Cottonwood Creek, Nine Mile Draw and Salt Draw, together with a levee to protect the city from Pecos River overflows. Cost of Salt Draw Floodway rights-of-way exceeded the city's financial capability so a modified plan was proposed and accepted by the city, which eliminated the Salt Draw Floodway and the Nine Mile Draw wing levees that protected only the agricultural lands. The modified plan diverts Cottonwood Creek and Hurd's Well Draw into Sand Lake and then to the Pecos River north of the city. Levees on the north and east sides protects the city from Pecos River overflows. Estimated Federal cost is $4,950,000. Local cooperation. Prior to construction responsible local agencies give satisfactory assurances to the Secretary of the Army that they will: (1) provide all lands, easements, and rights-of-way necessary for construction of the project; (2) hold and save the United States free from damages due to the construction works including any damage which may result from temporary ponding of interior runoff and effects on sewage systems; (3) maintain and operate the works after completion in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Army; and (4) make any alterations to existing improvements, other than railroads, which may be required because of the construction works. Estimated non-Federal cost is $754,000. 17-10 ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT Operations and conditions at the end of the fiscal year. Preconstruction planning continued. The hydrology design memorandum is about 75 percent complete. 13. 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.

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., 2nd 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 drainage 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. 13A. ABIQUIU DAM, 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 improvments 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 17-12 ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT 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. Local interests will also be required to comply with requirements of Section 221, 1970 Flood Control Act and PL 91-646 Uniform Relocation Assistance Act of 1970. 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. Projectwas reclassified to active category, and funds were appropriated for initiation of preconstruction planning in fiscal year 1966. Right-of-entry was obtained on May 15, 1967, from the Indian Pueblo of Santa Clara, the principal landowner affected by the project. The negotiations between the city and Santa Clara Pueblo to obtain formal assurances failed to materialize. The city was notified that the five-year period in which to comply with their requirements had begun on August 2, 1973. The city has not given indication they plan positive action to resolve the problem. Operations and results during the fiscal year. Preconstruction planning for the Espanola Valley unit of the floodway was completed. The failure to obtain formal assurances resulted in the District reporting on 2 November 1972 funds available for construction to be excess. Flood damages prevented by the completed floodway project for fiscal year 1973 were $358,000. Estimated total accumulated flood damages prevented by the floodway project through fiscal year 1973 amounted to $1,218,000. The peak flow of the Rio Grande through the middle valley was 7,440 c.f.s. at Albuquerque on 26 July 1973 and 3,000 c.f.s. at San Acacia on 1 July 1973. 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 unit is deferred for restudy. The Truth or Consequences (Hot Springs) Unit was reclassified to the active category on 18 July 1973 based on a letter of intent to cooperate from the city of Truth or Consequences dated May 31, 1973 and Sierra County, dated June 4, 1973. Hydrology and general design memoranda for Espanola Valley unit have been approved. Preconstruction planning was completed and five-year notice issued on August 2, 1972. 13F. TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES (HOT SPRINGS) UNIT, N. MEX. Location. Vicinity City of Truth or Consequences (Hot Springs), New Mexico. Existing project. Plan of improvement will include 4 miles of 20 foot high levees with positive seepage control, an interior drainage system, and 5 miles of diversion channels. The diversion channels would be required for control of floods on tributary arroyos at and in the vicinity of Truth or Consequences. Estimated Federal cost is $10,000,000. (See table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Prior to construction local interests must furnish assurances satisfactory to the Secretary of the Army that they will: (1) acquire all lands, easements, and rights-of-way necessary for construction and operation of the project; (2) hold and save the United States free from damages due to the construction works and free from claims as a result of flooding from residual interior drainage during operation of the project; (3) maintain and operate the works after completion; (4) make any alteration to existing improvements, other than railroad bridges and approaches connected therewith, which may be required because of the construction works; (5) Provide guidance and leadership by encouraging prudent use of flood proofing, land regulation planning, or other flood plain management techniques to reduce the flood losses. Letters of intent have been received from the City of Truth or Consequences (dated 31 May 1973) and the County of Sierra (dated 4 June 1973). Estimated non-Federal cost is $2,370,000. Operations and condition at the end of fiscal year. Capability for initiation of preconstruction planning has been reflected for next fiscal year. 14. 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 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 17-13 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 miles and will be operated for flood and sediment control, irrigation, and recreation purposes. Estimated Federal cost is $38,500,000 (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 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. Non-Federal cost is $6,686,000. 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 and engineering studies on master plan continued. The contract for embankment, spillway, relocated railroad and water supply line continued. Condition at end of year. Land acquisition and master plan for the project is essentially complete. The completed work consists of outlet works, Jansen reservoir, cemetery relocation, relocation of county road site preparation contract and some utility contracts. The progress on the embankment, spillway and other facilities contract is continuing and is about 70 percent complete. The contract for the relocation of Colorado State Highway # 12 started June 4, 1973 and is about 85 percent complete. 15. TWO RIVERS DAM, N. MEX. Location. About 14 miles southwest of Roswell, 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.) Existing project. For description of completed improvement and authorizing legislation see Annual Report for 1973. Federal cost was $4,790,838. 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. Routine maintenance and operation continued. The reservoir was empty on 1 July 1973. There was no flood regulation during the year. Flows occurred on 24, 25, and 26 July, and 30 and 31 August 1973. There was no flow during the rest of the year. Flows were of insufficient magnitude to induce storage or cause damages without the project. Sediment deposition for the year was 15 acre-feet. The reservoir was empty on June 30, 1974. There were no flood damages prevented by the project during fiscal year 1973, however, sediment damages prevented were $133,300. Estimated total accumulated flood and sediment damages 17-14 ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT prevented through fiscal year 1973 were $2,345,300. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is complete and was placed in operation July 1963. 16. INSPECTION OF COMPLETED FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS Included under this heading is inspection of completed flood control projects transferred to local interests for operation andmaintenance. Projects in Colorado and New Mexico were inspected. Fiscal year cost was $19,802 and total cost to June 30, 1974, was $79,632. 17. SCHEDULING FLOOD CONTROL RESERVOIR OPERATIONS Pursuant to section 7, Flood Control Act of 1944, expenditures were made for preparation of regulation manual for Pueblo reservoir, located on the Arkansas River above Pueblo and scheduling flood control reservoir operations 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. On 1 July 1973 the pool elevation was 10,002.5 feet with a corresponding storage of 33,200 acre-feet. The maximum elevation of the year was 10,007.8 feet on 6 July 1973 with a storage of 37,100 acre-feet. The reservoir was held at that approximate elevation until 17 May 1974. The release of stored water was begun on 17 May 1974 by request of the Colorado Representative as provided by resolution of the Rio Grande Compact Commission. The release of stored water ended on 29 May 1974 and by 30 June 1974 the pool elevation had been lowered to 9,983.5 feet with the storage decreased to 20,605 acre-feet. Flood damages prevented by the project during fiscal year 1973 were $510,000. Total accumulated flood damages prevented were $1,473,000 through FY 1973. Fiscal year costs were $5,156 and total costs to June 30, 1974, were $54,911. 18. OTHER AUTHORIZED FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS See Table 17-E 19.

Nearest towns are Glasgow, 17. miles northwest, and Nashua, 9 miles north. Existing project. A hydraulic earthfill dam with a maximum height of 250.5 feet and a reservoir for flood control, irrigation, navigation, hydroelectric power, and other purposes, with a gross storage capacity of 18,900,000 acre-feet at maximum operating pool. See page 818 of 1965 Annual Report and page 905 of 1958 Annual Report for project details. Estimated cost of overall project (July 1974) is $157,238,420 including $687,000 Code 710 funds. Local cooperation. None required. Terminal facilities. None. Operation and results during fiscal year. Regular funds, new work: None. Regular funds, maintenance: Design studies continued for powerhouse improvements and spillway repair. Powerhouse slope repair 75 percent complete. Fort Peck Lake was operated in conjunction with the other Missouri River reservoirs for flood control, navigation, power production, and other multi-purpose uses. Generating facilities produced 855,019,000 net kilowatt-hours of electricity. Total cost of Operation and Maintenance during the Fiscal Year was $3,017,900; however, reimbursement from the Bureau of Reclamation for the prorata share cost of Operation and Maintenance of the powerplant, reimbursement for furnishing operators' village facilities, and property disposals reduced net cost to $1,681,000.

Construction of locks and dams on Ohio River..................................... Page 22-4 Navigation (Cont'd) 2. Open channel work, Ohio River.... 1 CONSTRUCTION OF LOCKS AND DAMS ON OHIO RIVER Location. 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, 110 by 1,200 foot temporary locks in addition to the existing locks at locks and dams 52 and 53, 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 *Tributary navigation projects and all flood control projects in Ohio River Basin are in reports of districts included in Ohio River Division. 22-1 Page 22-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 26, 1934. Estimated Federal cost of new work (existing project) (1974), exclusive of Gallipolis locks and dam reported under Kanawha River project is $1,465,661,607, estimated non-Federal cost is $9,996,000. 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 foregoing cost estimate. See page 693, Annual Report, 1968 for items and estimated cost. Under authority of 1910 River and Harbor Act, Louisville and Portland Canal was widened to 200 feet; locks and dams 40 and 42 eliminated; locks and dams 1 and 2 replaced by Emsworth locks and dam; lock and dam 3 replaced by Dashields locks and dam; and locks and dams 4, 5, and 6 replaced by Montgomery locks and dam. Locks and dams 24, 25, and 26 were replaced by Gallipolis locks and dam authorized by August 30, 1935 Act, and constructed under project for improving lower Kanawha River. Locks and dams 7, 8, and 9 were replaced by New Cumberland locks and dam, locks and dams 10 and 11 were replaced by Pike Island locks and dam, locks and dams 18, 19 and 20 were replaced by Belleville locks and dam, locks and dams 21, 22 and 23 were replaced by Racine locks and dam, locks and dams 27, 28, 29, and 30 were replaced by Greenup locks and dam, locks and dams 31, 32, 33, and 34 were replaced by Captain Anthony Meldahl locks and dam, locks and dams 35, 36, 37, 38, and 39 were replaced by Markland locks and dam, the Louisville and Portland Canal widened to 500 feet, and locks and dams 43, 44 and 45 were replaced by Cannelton locks and dam, presently under construction, as modifications to existing project under purview of section 6, March 3, 1909 Act, reducing total number of structures to 27. Table 22-D contains data relative to various features of locks and dams included in existing project. For list of principal towns and cities along Ohio River with their mileage below Pittsburgh, Pa., see page 1060 Annual Report, 1962. See Table 22-C for licenses. Terminal facilities. Modern public terminals, with warehouses, equipped with operating machinery for transferring materials, have been constructed by private interests at some of the larger cities and towns. A list of terminals on Ohio River is revised annually as of June 30, and can be obtained from Division Engineer, U.S. Army Engineer Division, Ohio River, Cincinnati, Ohio.

One contract for recreation facilities was advanced to 99 percent completion and a second contract was awarded in May 1974; cost was $56,664 for recreation facilities under the completed projects program. In connection with the Markland Locks and Dam, the Congress has authorized the appropriation of funds for the design and construction of a public highway bridge across the navigation structure by the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1970 (Public Law 91-605) and the State of Indiana and the Commonwealth of Kentucky have agreed to construct necessary approach roads, within their respective States, to connect the bridge with 22-2 OHIO RIVER existing public highways. The said bridge and approach roads design and later construction is being accomplished by the Louisville District under the terms of a four-party contract with the Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration, the State of Indiana, and the Commonwealth of Kentucky that requires the latter three parties to be jointly responsible for the entire cost of the bridge and approach roads. A contract for design of the bridge and roads is substantially complete. McAlpine locks and dam: Project is complete except for alteration of lift section of railroad bridge that spans the upper end of the Louisville and Portland canal which work is presently deferred, and remote control system for dam gates.

Lock and Dam No. 53 (Tepiporary lock): Project is 6 percent complete. Five supply contracts for used and new steel sheet piling were awarded and advanced to 9 percent completion. Detailed design of the temporary lock was completed and the work was advertised for construction bids in May 1974; $1,202,371. 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 $3,425,458 for Pittsburgh District, $4,110,206 for Huntington District and $5,497,- 740 for Louisville District. Condition at end of fiscal year. Navigation system of 27 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, McAlpine, and Cannelton replacement locks and dams are in operation, replacing 27 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; Willow Island locks and dam to replace locks and dams 15, 16 and 17 was initiated in fiscal year 1967; 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 and Smithland locks and dam to replace locks and dams 50 and 51 was initiated in fiscal year 1971. For total cost of existing project, see Table 22-B. 22-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 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 sater 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 $602,560. Dredging by hired labor: Huntington District 612,536 cubic yards at $625,480 and Louisville District, 1,503,- 879 cubic yards at $810,428, and dredging by contract: Pittsburgh District 37,489 cubic yards at $87,429; and Louisville District 1,739,937 cubic yards at $1,093,727. Contract repair of the revetment at Kentucky Peninsula was accomplished in the fiscal year at a cost of $9,247 and hired labor maintenance thereon was accomplished at a cost of $1,750. Condition at end offiscal 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 Cost to in Text Project Funding FY 71 FY 72 FY 73 FY 74 June 30, 1974 1.

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 for construction of hydroelectric power-generating facilities at Cheatham Dam, river 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 multiplepurpose 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 affords 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 $176,852,400 (July 1973). (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 $129,641,700 (July 1973). 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 project authorization for river sections below and above Nashville are shown on Table 23-B. 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 35 terminals on the Cumberland River (1 municipally owned and open for public use; 2 government owned facilities and 32 privately owned facilities). A total of 20 terminals have railroad connections. Principal commodities handled are petroleum products, sand, gravel, coal, coke, iron and steel. Nine terminals are set up to handle various types of commodities. Facilities considered adequate for existing commerce. For further 23-2 NASHVILLE, TENN., DISTRICT information see page 695 of Annual Report for 1969. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Below Nashville: Contract for construction of public use facilities at Hurricane Creek, Site 24, Lake Barkley was completed during FY 1974. Costs for new work under code 711 was $155,875. Above Nashville: A/E contract for plans and specifications for recreation facilities at Shutes Branch Site, Old Hickory Project was completed and contract awarded during latter part of FY 1974 for construction of family camping area, restroom, washhouse and related utilities. Work being accomplished under code 712 program. Contracts completed at Cordell Hull Project during FY 1974 include the Hydroelectric Powerplant, dredging below Carthage, Tenn., development of recreation facilities at one site including roads, ramps, parking areas and fish barrier dam. Construction of recreation facilities at three sites was continued. Contract for construction of project overlook, right bank access road completion and additional recreation facilities was awarded during latter part of FY 1974. Miscellaneous items of work under various features were accomplished by hired labor. Acquisition activities continue on one remaining tract of land, (the three power units were placed in operation on 9 August 1973, 19 October 1973, and 25 February 1974), and action was completed on 18 acres. Costs for new work were $3,792,900. Operation and maintenance: Barkley, Cheatham, Cordell Hull, and Old Hickory locks and dams were operated as required. Maintenance and improvement operations at Barkley includes installation of tow haulage unit, erect equipment storage shed, cleaning and applying rust preventive compound to spillway gate chains, and painting upstream side of spillway gates. Cavitation repairs to turbines numbers 2 and 4 was cause for outage time of 34 days during FY 1974. Contract for channel maintenance dredging for Cumberland City bypass was awarded during early part of fourth quarter and scheduled for completion in FY 1975. Work at Cheatham includes replacing broken blade operating rod on number 2 turbine. This machine is now operating as a variable pitch (kaplan type) turbine.

For details see pages 1902- 1906, Annual Report for 1915; pages 1190-1194, 1196-1216, and 1220-1222, Annual Report for 1929; and page 1216, Annual Report for 1938. Existing project. Originally provided for permanent improvement of river for a navigable depth of 9 feet at low water from mouth about 650 miles to Knoxville, Tenn. Only work performed by the Corps was construction of lock at General Joe Wheeler Dam and miscellaneous appurtenant improvements at a new work cost of $2,244,236. Tennessee Valley Authority program provided for obtaining authorized 9-foot project by construction of high dams and locks and utilization of certain locks and dams previously constructed under jurisdiction of the Corps. (See Table 23-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Subsequent construction by that agency of Melton Hill Dam extends navigable channel of Tennessee River system up the Clinch River about 38 miles above damsite (mile 23.1) to vicinity of Clinton, Tenn. (See table 23-D on Tennessee River.) In accordance with general navigation laws placing control and supervision over navigable waters under direction of Secretary of the Army, Corps of Engineers operates and maintains all locks, and maintains navigation channels and safety harbors by performing all necessary maintenance dredging and snagging operations. For information concerning other functions of the Corps under division of responsibilities for Tennessee River since adoption of Tennessee Valley Authority Act of 1933, see page 1084 of Annual Report for 1962. Local cooperation. Authorization requires no local cooperation in construction of alternate system of low dams. It does, however, provide that if high dams are built before the United States builds projected locks and low dams which are to be replaced, the United States shall contribute to cost of substituted structures an amount equal to estimated cost of works of navigation for which substitution is made. Terminal facilities. There are 142 terminals on the Tennessee River (9 municipally owned, 20 government owned facilities and 113 privately owned facilities). A total of 69 terminals 23-4 NASHVILLE, TENN., DISTRICT have railroad connections. Principal commodities handled are petroleum products, sand, gravel, coal, coke, grain, chemicals, iron, and steel.

OTHER AUTHORIZED NAVIGATION PROJECTS See Table 23-F. 23-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 Alteration of Bridges 6. AUTHORIZED ALTERATION OF BRIDGES Work on Woodland Street bridge, under Truman-Hobbs Act, was initiated in 1965 and completed in 1966. Costs were $987,632. For details see page 922 of Annual Report for 1967. Flood Control 7. MARTINS FORK LAKE, KY. Location. Dam planned at mile 15.6 on Martins Fork of Clover Fork, Cumberland River, about 10 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 seasonable 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 criticallow- flow periods. Project will prevent major 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 $12,300,000 (July 1973). 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. Contract for phase I road relocations was continued and contract for phase II portion of road relocations was awarded during latter part of FY 1974. Work under contract for subsurface investigations was initiated late in the fiscal year. Design memoranda covering structure design, concrete aggregate and riprap, and Smith, Kentucky, Elementary School were completed. Work on the master plan design memo was continued and plans and specifications for the dam were commenced. Acquisition action was completed on 939 acres during the year.

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 for authorizing legislation and locks and 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-torail 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 $943,861; maintenance repairs at locks and dams were accomplished at cost of $640,961.

CONSTRUCTION OF LOCKS AND DAMS, OHIO RIVER See this heading under Ohio River portion. 3. 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 10 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 dams 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 and 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. Recently authorized Grays Landing lock and dam and Point Marion replacement lock will replace existing obsolete lock and dam 7 and lock 8, respectively. 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 (1974), exclusive of amounts expended on previous projects is $202,500,000. (See tables 26- B, 26-D, and 26-E for authorizing legislation and 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 26-2 PITTSBURGH, PA., DISTRICT 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: Reconstruction of dam 4: Costs incurred in connection with concluding land acquisition were $1,214. Total cost for reconstruction of dam 4 was $1,371. Operation and maintenance, general: Locks were operated as required and necessary repairs were made to maintain them in a serviceable condition at cost of $2,046,522; maintenance repairs to locks and dams cost $486,- 277. Study for replacement of locks and dams for lower reach of river remains suspended pending accomplishment of a systems analysis approach for navigation planning. 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 Grays Landing lock and dam and construction of new lock at Point Marion lock and dam (lock and dam 8). 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. 4.

The State on November 3, 1965 provided assurances that it will exercise, to the full extent of its legal capability, control against removal of streamflow made available for water quality control; and contribute to the control of pollution of streams subject to low-flow augmentation by fully enforcing its laws which require adequate treatment or other methods of controlling wastes at their sources. The State of West Virginia reaffirmed the preceding assurances by letter dated July 7, 1970. Formal assurances from State of West Virginia together with certification from State Attorney General that the State has legal and financial ability to furnish such Assurances, were requested by letter dated August 3, 1971. Revised assurances, which deleted the requirement that the State of West Virginia "hold and save the United States free from damages resulting from water-rights claims due to construction and operation of the project" in conformance with PL 92-222, were requested from the State of West Virginia by letter dated January 13, 1972. The Governor of West Virginia signed the assurances on May 29, 1973. The assurances are ready for execution by the Government. TThe State of West Virginia on July 1, 1969 furnished a letter of intent that it desires to participate in the recreational development of the project in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Water Project Recreation Act of 1965. Draft of contract was given to State of West Virginia representatives on February 3, 1971. State law required approval of contract by the Attorney General. State submitted contract to Attorney General on March 1, 1971 for review. A 26-14 PITTSBURGH, PA., DISTRICT revised draft of the recreation agreement between the Government and the State of West Virginia was forwarded to Director, Department of Natural Resources and the Deputy Attorney General, State of West Virginia on May 12, 1971. The State considered the planned initial recreation too costly and suggested a revised plan to provide for a less costly and more concentrated initial recreation development. A revised draft contract for cost sharing under PL 89-72 was submitted to the Director of Natural Resources for execution on March 10, 1972. To date, there has been no further action by the State of West Virginia. The City of Weston has executed the contract between the City and the United States covering the water supply aspects of the project as it affects the City of Weston which was forwarded to them on March 8, 1972.

Estimated cost (1974) to the United States for new work is $1,264,000. 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 land side of the north levee at non-Federal cost. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: A contract for construction of channel improvements was brought to 99-percent completion at a cost of $530,562. Engineering and design and supervision and administration cost $34,936. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of the improvement by contract awarded in June 1972 is substantially complete. 55.

OTHER AUTHORIZED NAVIGATION PROJECTS See table 28-B. 5. NAVIGATION WORK UNDER SPECIAL AUTHORIZATION During the fiscal year, a navigation study for a small-boat harbor (preauthorization) at Rock Island, Ill., was conducted at cost of $11,784, pursuant to Section 107 of the River and Harbor Act of 1960. Flood Control 6. AMES LAKE, IOWA Location. Site is in Story County, Iowa. Damsite is at mile 220.6 on Skunk River, and about 5 river miles upstream from city of Ames, Iowa. Existing project. Dam would consist of an earth embankment about 85 feet high and about 1,450 feet long. Outlet works would consist of 12-foot diameter tunnel, 500 feet in length with gate tower on upstream end, terminating in a stilling basin. The principal spillway would be located in a saddle in left abutment. Overflow section would consist of a single tainter gate mounted on a low ogee crest. An emergency spillway would be provided in the right abutment. At full flood pool elevation 976, the lake would be about 9 miles long and would extend about 13 river miles upstream from the dam. At conservation pool elevation 950, the lake would be about 6 miles long and would extend about 8 river miles upstream from the dam. Project would be operated for flood control, water quality control, recreation, and fish and wildlife enhancement. Total estimated Federal cost is $21,900,000, 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. Local cooperation. Local interests would be required to furnish assurances that they would (1) Administer project land and water areas for recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement; (2) Pay, contribute in kind, or repay (which may be through user fees), with interest, one-half of the separable costs of the Ames Lake project allocated to recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement, provided that greater participation under the same terms is permissible as may be agreed upon; (3) Bear all costs of operation, maintenance, and replacement of recreation and fish and wildlife lands and facilities. (4) Hold and save the United States free from damages due to water-rights claims resulting from construction and operation of the project; and (5) Exercise, to the full extent of their legal capability, control 28-2 ROCK ISLAND, ILL., DISTRICT against removal of streamflow made available for water quality control. No action toward fulfilling the local cooperation requirements has been taken. The State of Iowa has expressed general opposition to the project at this time. Operations and results during fiscal year. By contract, the University of Iowa and the Iowa State University made a joint study to evaluate the environmental impact of the project. A public meeting to consider the Environmental Impact Statement was held in Des Moines, Iowa, on December 20, 1973. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning was initiated in 1966. No construction has been performed. Because of opposition, the project was placed in the "Inactive" category in June 1974. 7. BETTENDORF, IOWA Location. On right bank of Mississippi River, 485.7 miles above mouth of Ohio River, in Scott County, Iowa. Existing project.

FLOOD CONTROL WORK UNDER SPECIAL AUTHORIZATION Emergency Flood Control Activities; Repair, Flood Fighting, and Rescue Work (Public Law 99, 84th Cong., and Antecedent Legislation). In November 1972, North Central Division of the Corps of Engineers requested authorization to undertake a "Foresight" type of operation to provide temporary flood protection on the Great Lakes. In December 1972, North Central Division was officially notified to proceed with Operation Foresight. Also in December 1972, Detroit District was issued a directive to proceed by the North Central Division. The emergency program pertained specifically to flooding and was not applicable to prevention or mitigation of shore erosion. The program required that each plan of temporary flood protection be feasible from an engineering and economic standpoint and that it be feasible of timely completion. Three plans of assistance were made available to a community; namely, Corps of Engineers constructed dikes, self-help projects where the Corps furnished the material and the local citizens provided the labor, and a combination self-help and contractor constructed project. All contract projects were completed during FY 74. Costs during FY 74 were 7.2 million dollars. This, combined with FY 73 cost, brought the total for Operation Foresight on the Great Lakes within the Detroit District to 20 million dollars. Protection was provided to 113 communities within the Detroit District. One hundred and nine miles of diking were constructed during the program. Benefits to be derived from the program were estimated at 70 million dollars. It was also estimated that 30.4 thousand people were being protected by the dikes. At the end of June 1974, total estimated accumulated prevented damages was 59.2 million dollars. Flood protection assistance was also provided to Grandview Beach, Monroe County, Michigan. Under Public Law 99, 84th Cong. at a cost of $39,- 000. Protection consisted primarily of clay diking. Accumulated prevented damages are estimated at 24.8 thousand dollars. A Rehabilitation Project was authorized in June 1973 for Point Place, Toledo, Ohio. Under PL 99, 84th Congress. The project was completed in November 1973. Cost of the project was $878,- 000. 57. SURVEY OR NORTH CENTRAL LAKES Field Operations. The following reports on the results of field discharge measurements were completed: 1973, St. Marys River Winter discharge and flow distribution around Sugar Island: 1973-74, Soo Harbor Current flow pattern and velocity measurements during both open water and ice cover conditions: 1972-73, Niagara River Discharge Measurements- Upper River: 1974, Niagara River Discharge Measurements - Lower River: 1973, St. Clair River Discharge Measurements. Reports were started on the following measurements: 1974, May-Niagara River measurements in both the Upper and Lower River: 1974, June-Lake Superior Control Structure Measurements. Approximately one-half of the aforementioned field work was conducted cooperatively with the Water Survey of Canada and was required for the International Joint Commission Boards and Committees. The remaining work was carried out in support of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Seaway Navigation Season Extension Demonstration Program in an effort to determine the effects of ice and late-season shipping on flows in the connecting Great Lakes rivers and in support of this District's mission. New techniques employed in field operations include: An experimental method of determining flow patterns and velocities within a river system was developed utilizing large float markers and aerial photography. This method was employed on the entire length of the Detroit River. Initial results appear favorable, and this method will be expanded and utilized on other 31-29 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 river systems: Measuring discharge in the lower Niagara River from a cable car suspended across the gorge, upstream of the U.S. and Canadian power houses: Development of a digitaltape instrument package by the Waterways Experiment Station to collect all pertinent data during a river measurement. The data is transferred to magnetic tape and allows for immediate data reduction by computer. Advances in computer application include the computation of sediment transport by a digital computer. Input data includes wave energy, shoreline reach length and shoreline orientation. International Activities. The following activities were conducted specifically for the International Joint Commission boards and committees: Members of the Detroit District staff attended the appearances of the Great Lakes Boards before the Commission. International Lake Superior Board of Control. Periodic reports of water levels and recommendations regarding regulation of Lake Superior we furnished to the Board. In conjunction with the periodic reports, the Board is being provided with a forecast of lake conditions based on various probable water supplies. The technique for making this forecast was developed jointly by the Detroit District and the Department of Environment, Canada. Computation of the effects of Lake Superior regulation and deviation from the currently approved operating plan on the lower lakes is being kept current for the Board's use and information. An "Operational Guide" for a new operating plan is being prepared. International Niagara Board of Control and International Niagara Working Committee. A member of the Detroit District Staff, acting as hydraulic consultant to the Buffalo District and to the U.S. section of the Working Committee, attended meetings of the Board and the Working Committee. During the period an evaluation and report was made on varying the Grass Island pool elevations and its effect on Lake Erie. The Branch participated in a joint discharge measurement program in the Upper Niagara River for the purpose of calibrating a sonic flowmeter. In addition, measurements were made from a newly established cableway to calibrate the section. International St. Lawrence River Board of Control and St. Lawrence Committee on River Gaging. A member of the Detroit District staff, acting as hydraulic consultant, attended meetings of the Board and River Gaging Committee. For the Working Committee of the Board a series of regulation plans were developed and evaluated. These plans were tested and analyzed over the 1900-1972 historical supply period. International Great Lakes Levels Board and Working Committee. Members of the Detroit District Staff attended numerous meetings of the Board, its Working Committee and Subcommittees, and these staff members served as Chairmen of the Regulation Subcommittee and Regulatory Works Subcommittee, and as members of the Power and Report Subcommittees. In addition, technical and consulting support was given to the Shore Property and Navigation Subcommittees. The final report of the Power Subcommittee, Appendix "F," and the Regulatory Works Subcommittee's report, Appendix "G," for the International Great Lakes Levels Board Report on Regulation was completed. Members of the Detroit District on the Subcommittee attended many meetings during the year. In connection with its chairmanship of the Regulation Subcommittee, the Detroit District continued development and testing of regulation plans for all the Great Lakes and various combinations of lakes. Work was completed on the final report Appendix "A," "Hydraulics and Hydrology of the Great Lakes," to the Board's report and on Appendix "B," "Regulation of the Great Lakes." Development of partial regulation plans for Lake Erie which was not part of the original assignment were continued. These plans use the Black Rock Canal as a means of obtaining required additional discharge capacity. All plans developed to date in this study have been developed so as not to require any modification in the St. Lawrence River channels or works. In addition to the Lake Erie partial regulation plans developed for the Board, the Detroit District was requested by the IJC to refine certain plans developed in the Board's report. Work was started and a preliminary report prepared on the findings. The lake regulation plan SO-901, developed as part of this study for the regulation of Lake Superior, was presented to the International Joint Commission by the International Great Lakes Levels Board. The Detroit District assisted in the public hearings held by the IJC regarding the plan. Development of additional plans in this series increasing the range of levels on Lake Superior were completed during the year. The Detroit District staff provided the other Subcommittees (Shore Property and Navigation) with the necessary support to analyze and evaluate all regulation plans presented for detailed evaluation. Coordinating Committee on Great Lakes Basin Hydraulics and Hydrologic Data. The Great Lakes Hydraulic and Hydrology Branch of the District provided ex-officio membership on this 31-30 DETROIT, MICH., DISTRICT committee and its subcommittees. Operations pertaining to the coordinating of basic hydraulic and hydrologic data with Canada continued. Work continued on the coordination of historical St. Clair-Detroit River flows and on a report entitled, "History of Water Level Gages, Upper Great Lakes." Work also continued on determination of the feasibility of coordination of such hydraulic and hydrologic parameters as runoff, precipitation, etc., and on coordination of Great Lakes levels forecasts and coordination of the definition of various datum plans employed on the Great Lakes system. Hydraulics and Hydrology of the Great Lakes. The following studies relative to the hydrology of the Great Lakes were continued by Great Lakes Hydraulics and Hydrology Branch staff members: Studies to improve the existing Great Lakes levels forecasting system; and on the factors affecting the Great Lakes water balance relationship (i.e., runoff, precipitation over water, evaporation, etc.) In connection with these activities, consulting engineering services were provided to the Great Lakes Basin Commission (Comprehensive Basin Framework Study); to the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Lake Survey Center, in connection with Great Lakes forecast; and to the International Field Year on the Great Lakes in connection with the Terrestrial Water Balance Panel (Principal investigations are provided by this District for the studies being conducted by the Panel.) As part of its work, the Great Lakes Hydraulics and Hydrology Branch was also involved in the following: Extension of Navigation Season, Ice Information Work Group. The major activity involving personnel of the Detroit District during FY 73 consisted of the ice surveillance program on the St. Clair, Detroit and St. Marys Rivers in response to the Extension of the Navigation Season Program. The program included field observations of ice effects on shore structures, floe patterns in Soo Harbor, water surface profiles and aerial surveillance, including photographs and movies. Also, real time information from telemetry water level gages and helicopter flights to critical ice areas was provided to the District Engineer during critical ice conditions. A report on these activities was completed and plans for the 1973-74 winter activities were started. High Levels on the Great Lakes. The Great Lakes Hydraulics and Hydrology Branch provided technical information regarding high lake levels and long-range still water forecasts to many interested parties such as: Congressmen, State and local officials, news media and concerned property owners. Information explaining the reasons for the high levels and information regarding projected levels was supplied to the public in the form of direct answers to numerous inquiries, addresses to various civic groups and interviews with news media. As part of its routine work, the Branch continued to provide monthly St. Clair and Detroit River flows and update the data contained in the Lake Erie Outflow report. The Branch also routinely made an assessment of the hydraulic effects on Great Lakes levels permit applications for all Districts of NCD. Coastal Engineering. The Great Lakes Hydraulics and Hydrology Branch provided techinical support relating to coastal engineering problems within the District boundaries. a. Harbor Studies. Harbor design studies were completed for Tawas Bay, Sterling State Park, Lexington, and Grand Marais. The purpose of these studies was to determine breakwater configurations and crest elevations to limit wave heights in anchorage areas. Harbor modification studies and model tests were started for Ludington Harbor. The present Ludington Harbor entrance requires widening and deepening to facilitate the movement of shipping into the harbor. b. Dredged Spoil Containment Areas. Spoil areas are being provided for disposal of polluted spoil. Many of these sites are located off the Great Lakes shoreline. Accordingly, dikes are needed to contain dredged spoil. It is necessary that these dikes be designed so storm wave action will not breach them and release contaminated spoil into the Great Lakes. This requires a complete wind and wave analysis to determine dike heights, amount of armor stone needed, and where damaging currents may be expected. Analyses have been completed for Bolles Harbor and Pte. Mouillee and are in progress for Saginaw River, Port Austin, South Haven, and Frankfort. c. Studies under Section 111 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1968. Detailed project report studies were completed for South Haven and Holland Harbors. Studies are in progress for Port Sanilac, Muskegon, Ludington, Grand Haven and White Lake Harbors. Field data collection programs have been completed for Muskegon, Hammond Bay and Frankfort Harbors. d. Littoral Environment Observation Program (LEO). The District is conducting this program in cooperation with CERC and the Michigan DNR. This program is providing data for meteorological and oceanographic data bank pertaining to natural forces which affect the Great Lakes shorelines. Included in the LEO 31-31 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 Program are 11 observation sites on Lake Michigan, 6 on Lake Superior, 6 on Lake Huron, 1 on Lake Erie, and 1 site on Lake St. Clair. The Branch maintains the LEO sites, trains observers, and monitors data obtained prior to its transmittal to CERC for reduction, compilation and analysis. e. Evaluation of permit applications. There were 160 permits processed during the year. These permits were for harbor, shore protection, and similar structures to be constructed along the Great Lakes shoreline. f. Branch personnel derived the 100-year flood level for each of the Great Lakes. These data were furnished to other agencies and local interests for use in delineating the flood plain and developing zoning ordinances to insure wise use of the flood plain. g. Support to Local Interests. The Great Lakes Hydraulics and Hydrology Branch provided technical advice to the Ohio DNR, Toledo Metro Area Council of Government, and the West Michigan Shoreline Regional Development Commission in a series of meetings and workshops on shore damage, protection, and coastal zone management. h. Environmental Studies. Technical support and review was provided in the assessment of environmental effects of Corps projects on the coastal zone. Navigation and diked disposal projects were evaluated with a view to possible adverse effect on nearby property due to interruption of movement of littoral materials. Appropriate design changes are made concerning mitigation measures or design changes to eliminate adverse environmental impacts. Study results are incorporated into environmental impact statements. Environmental Impact Statements were prepared for harbors and dredged disposal sites referred to above. GENERAL INVESTIGATIONS 58. SURVEYS Fiscal year costs were $2,234,132 for navigation studies, $376,340 for flood control studies and $38,416 for comprehensive basin studies. Special studies continued during fiscal year on Great Lakes water levels, soil conservation coordination studies and National Wild and Scenic Rivers System cost $51,213. 59. COLLECTION AND STUDY OF BASIC DATA Flood Plain Management Services Branch The Flood Plain Management Services Branch within the Detroit District provides direct support as well as renders advice and guidance on matters pertaining to non-structural alternatives to flood plain management. This includes (1) the preparation of flood plain information reports, (2) completion of technical services investigations for Federal agencies in compliance with Executive Order 11296 as well as for municipal governments and private organizations, (3) formulation of comprehensive flood damage prevention planning, (4) initiation of flood hazard information reports, and (5) dissemination of information pertaining to HUD's flood insurance studies program and the preparation of such studies. During the Fiscal Year 1974, continuing liaison was maintained with governmental agencies and private and professional organizations emphasizing the importance of flood plain management activities and the techniques of their application, particularly with respect to the concept of environmental preservation. Special technical services were provided in response to 260 requests for evaluation of localized problem conditions. This represents a 20 percent increase in such actions over FY 73. Support was given to a number of Federal agencies in accordance with the provisions of Executive Order 11296. Routine conferences and discussions were conducted with the coordinating agencies of the Departments of Natural Resources, for the States of Ohio, Indiana and Michigan as well as with local units of government. Private and municipal consultants, engineers and planners, as well as land developers and housing specialists sought expertise on special problems and land-use regulations. With the distribution of flood plain information reports, adoption of flood plain zoning ordinances were encouraged. With the culmination of some three years of effort, a formal presentation was conducted in cooperation with the Indiana Department of Natural Resource for the Allen County Indiana Report. Some 100 miles were studied at a total cost of $190,000. Continuing FPI Report studies include Grand River, Taiilmadge and Georgetown Townships, Ottawa County, Michigan, Grand and Thornapple Rivers, Ada Township, Michigan and Allen County Indiana. Contracts were negotiated with the A-E firm of Burgess and Niple, Columbus, Ohio, for the preparation of the Ottawa River-Ten Mile Creek, Sylvania, Ohio, FPI Report at a total Federal cost of $47,500 and the FIA-HUD Flood Insurance Study at $25,- 000. Type 15 HUD-FIA Flood Insurance studies were completed for Southfield, Redford Township and Birmingham, Michigan. This District acknowledged interest in undertaking some 20 additional flood insurance studies. 31-32 DETROIT, MICH., DISTRICT In the area of local assistance communities as well as residents continue to be advised as to the preparation of much needed flood plain ordinances and flood hazard studies. The forecast of future demands for service will require continuing support of the same magnitude. International Water Studies. Fiscal year cost was $44,461 for collection and study of basic data in connection with international water studies. 31-33 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 TABLE 31-A COST AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT See Section Total Cost to in Text Project Funding FY 71 FY 72 FY 73 FY 74 June 30, 1974 1.

On coast of southern California about a mile northwest of existing harbor of Port Hueneme, 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 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 longprotected 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. Plane 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 completed 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. The U.S. Navy is to bear 19 percent of the cost of maintenance dredging. (See table 33-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities.

MARINA DEL REY, LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIF. Location. On coast of southern California, Santa Monica Bay in Los Angeles County, 20 miles northwest of Los Angeles Harbor and 390 miles southeast of San Francisco Bay. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 5101 and 5144.) Existing project. A harbor for light-draft vessels at Marina del Rey. The harbor as modified, which provides for protected berthing facilities for about 6,500 small craft and facilities for parking 2,500 trailer-mounted craft, includes an entrance channel, with north and south side revetments, a main channel, north and south entrance jetties, 8 side basins, with 6 intervening moles, and an offshore breakwater. Plane of reference is mean lower low water. Range of tide between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 5.6 feet. Extreme range is about 10.5 feet. First cost of new work for completed project Was $8,477,504 ($4,238,752 Federal (excluding $42,000 for U.S. Coast Guard costs) and $4,238,752 non-Federal). Map of modified plan is in addendum 1 to "Design Memorandum No. 1, General Design for Playa Del Rey Inlet and Harbor, Venice, Calif.," prepared by Los Angeles District in November 1956. This modified plan was further modified to conform to the 1959 master plan of local interests and to provide an offshore breakwater as an additional protective structure for the harbor. For further project description, see page 1353 of Annual Report for 1966. (See table 33-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. About 5,600 boats are presently berthed in 20 operating anchorages, which afford 5,800 berths.

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 offiscal year. Existing project initiated and completed in 1937. Total cost for existing project was $93,494, of which $6,754 was for new work and $92,704 for maintenance. 2. MOKELUMNE RIVER, CALIF. Location. Rises near crest of the Sierra Nevada on western slope about elevation 10,000 feet and flows 140 miles via North Fork, or 145 miles via South Fork, to empty into San Joaquin River 20 miles above mouth. River flows southwesterly 119 miles to town of Woodbridge; thence northerly about 9 miles to Galt-New Hope Bridge; thence westerly 8 miles to New Hope Landing, separates, flowing southerly, afterwards reuniting at point 9 miles downstream via North Fork and 14 miles via South Fork; thence westerly 4 miles to its mouth in San Joaquin River. (See Geological Survey topographic map of Sacramento Valley, Calif.) Existing project. For description of completed improvement and authorizing act, see Annual Report for 1967. Total Federal cost of new work for project was $8,500. Local cooperation. None required. For non- Federal cost, see Annual Report for 1967. Terminal facilities. Commodities are handled on small wharves or landings or on banks at various places. Facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Condition studies and miscellaneous inspections and reports were accomplished by hired labor. Condition at end offiscal year. Existing project was initiated in November 1884 and completed in December 1885. 3. SACRAMENTO RIVER, CALIF. Location. Rises in Trinity Mountains in northcentral California, flows generally southerly about 374 miles and empties into Suisun Bay, an arm of San Francisco Bay, at Collinsville, Calif. (See Geological Survey topographic map of Sacramento Valley, Calif.) Previous projects. For details see page 1985 of Annual Report for 1915, and page 1708, Annual Report for 1938. Existing project. For description of Sacramento Deep Water Ship Channel, see Annual Report for 1969. Total first cost for completed portion was $43,932,558 ($39,560,558 Federal (Corps), $300,000 (Coast Guard), and $4,072,000 non-Federal for lands and damages, including relocations) and excludes local interests cost $10,741,000 (June 196) for 30-foot deep water ship channel and 13-foot deep connecting canal basic terminal facilities required under terms of project authorization. Project also provides for a shallow-draft channel 10 feet deep at mean lower low water 150 to 200 feet bottom width, from Suisun Bay to Sacramento, Calif., 60 miles; a depth of 6 feet at low water between Sacramento and Colusa, 85 miles; a depth of 5 feet at low water between Colusa and Chico Landing, 50 miles; and such depths as practicable between Chico Landing and Red Bluff, 53 miles, a total distance of 248 miles. Estimated Federal cost (July 1973) of new work for shallowdraft river channel is $1,360,000 (includes 35-2 SACRAMENTO, CALIF., DISTRICT $1,163,000 for deferred portion between Colusa and Chico Landing). (See table 35-B for authorizing legislation.) (See table 35-C on tidal and flood conditions prevailing.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with for deep water ship channel project. None required on shallow-draft feature. Terminal facilities. Piers, wharves, and docks at Port of Sacramento for shallow-draft navigation are open-pile structures with timber decks, some of which are designed to meet extreme high waters at flood stages. All main wharves at Sacramento have rail connections. Three of above facilities are owned by city of Sacramento and remainder by private interests; all are privately operated. For full description see "Port and Terminal Facilities at the Ports of Stockton and Sacramento, Calif., 1962." Deep water terminal facilities comprise wharves and piers, administratioi, and storage buildings, and belt railroad facilities. Majority of these facilities are owned and operated by Sacramento-Yolo Port District; remainder are privately owned and operated. Facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work, Deep Water Ship Channel: None. (See table 35-D for major items of work included in maintenance.) Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of 7-foot shallow-draft channel below Sacramento was initiated in September 1899 and completed in 1904. Modified 10-foot shallow-draft channel up to Sacramento was initiated in fiscal year 1928 and completed in 1931. Shallow-draft channel above Sacramento began in April 1946 and new work is about 48 percent complete. In February 1974, remaining work for shallow-draft portion of project, provision of a 5-foot depth between Colusa and Chico Landing (50 miles), was reclassified as "deferred." Channel is navigable all year; however, there is no regular navigation above Colusa, 145 miles above river mouth. Construction of 30-foot deep water ship channel was initiated in July 1949; improvement dredging by continuing contracts resulted in provision of an operational facility for oceangoing vessels during June 1963. Bascule bridge was completed in April 1960, barge lock in August 1961, barge canal in November 1961, and entire deep water ship channel in June 1970. 4. SAN FRANCISCQ BAY TO STOCKTON, CALIF. (JOHN F.

Local interests for Terminus Dam are represented by Kaweah Delta Water Conservation District. Local interests for Success Lake are considered to be represented by the Vandalia, Porterville, and Lower Tule River Irrigation Districts, the Tulare Lake Basin Water Storage District, and Pioneer Water Co., which represent over 90 percent of irrigated land and water-right holders along Tule River below damsite. Local interests must reimburse the Federal Government the portion of first cost and annual operation and maintenance costs allocated to irrigation functions of projects. These costs are estimated at 14.1 percent of first and annual costs for Terminus and 9.5 percent of first and annual costs for Success. Local interests for Terminus also stated they will continue to operate and maintain spreading works and downstream channel systems to provide required capacity for disposal of floodwaters. Local interests for Success also stated they will continue to maintain downstream channel systems to provide required capacity for disposal of floodwaters. Repayment contracts between Bureau of Reclamation and local water users for irrigation supply from Terminus and Success reservoirs were executed January 11, 1965, and April 30, 1965, respectively. Reservoirs are being operated for irrigation storage as well as flood control and incidental recreation use. Tulare County acquired water for recreation pools at the projects. Local interests paid the following total amounts for irrigation services from the reservoirs through December 31, 1973: Terminus, $836,705 and Success, $353,794. Tulare County was granted a 25-year license for planning, development, and management of public recreation areas at Success, July 10,1960, and at Terminus, June 5, 1961. Basic public-use facilities constructed by Corps at the Success reservoir were transferred to jurisdiction of Tulare County on January 18, 1962; facilities at Terminus were transferred June 20, 1962. In March 1967, an amendment to the license agreements was approved by the Assistant Secretary of the Army. Under these amended licenses, Tulare County retained administration of only specified land areas and operation and maintenance of recreation facilities in these areas. In addition, they continued their program of water safety, boat inspection, and law enforcement at both reservoirs. The Corps took over the administration of the remainder of the project land areas and the operation and maintenance of recreation facilities in these areas. California Department of Fish and Game expended funds to improve fishery resources of the Terminus reservoir. As of April 1, 1972, Tulare County relinquished all planning, development, and management of public recreation areas at Terminus Dam.

Reservoirs and channel improvements are on Bear, Burns, Mariposa, and Owens Creeks, in foothills of Sierra Nevada about 15 to 20 miles east of city of Merced, Calif. (See Geological Survey Haystack Mountain quadrangle for Burns and Indian Gulch quadrangle for Bear, Owens, and Mariposa areas.) Existing project. For description of completed improvements and authorizing act, see Annual Report for 1962. Improvements consist of reservoirs at Mariposa, Owens, Burns and Bear Creeks and diversions from Black Rascal Creek to Bear Creek and from Owens Creek to Mariposa Creek. Total first cost for project was $3,899,259, of which $2,751,259 was Federal and $1,148,000 non-Federal for lands including relocations and channel improvement. Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Ordinary maintenance and operation of the four completed reservoirs continued at costs as follows: Mariposa $9,649; Owens $8,877; Bear $10,420; and Burns $9,648. Structures were maintained in a serviceable condition. Runoff from drainage areas above Merced County stream group reservoirs was above normal for the year. (See table 35-H for maximum inflow storage and outflow for projects.) Outflows were less than channel capacity rates in the project streams. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction was initiated March 1948, with construction of Mariposa project, which was completed in November 1948. Construction of Owens project, initiated in March, was completed in October 1949; Burns project, initiated in July 1949, was completed in January 1950; and Bear project, initiated in April, was completed in December 1954. Black Rascal and Owens Creek diversion channels and stream-gaging stations were completed in April 1956. Local interests completed channel enlargement and restoration of channel capacities of Miles, Burns, Owens, and Mariposa Creeks in 1956 at their expense. Improvement of Bear Creek and Black Rascal Slough, below their confluence, was deferred pending possible improvements downstream, outside limits project. 25. MERCED COUNTY STREAMS, CALIF. Location. In vicinity of city of Merced, Calif., on streams draining from Mariposa County foothills of the Sierra Nevada into Merced County. Streams lie easterly of and drain into the San Joaquin River between Chowchilla River on the south and Merced River on the north. Drainage area represents about 1,000 square miles; nearly 700 square miles of foothills and mountains in Mariposa County and about 300 square miles of flood plain in Merced County. (See Geological Survey quadrangles for area.) Existing project. Project is a modification of Merced County Stream Group, Calif., Improvement No. 24, authorized by 1944 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 473, 78th Cong., 2d sess.) and completed fiscal year 1957. Existing project provides for construction of three new reservoirs-Castle, Haystack Mountain, and Marguerite on Canal, Black Rascal, and Deadman-Dutchman Creeks, respectively, and enlargement of four existing reservoirs-Burns, Bear, Owens, and Mariposa, providing a total capacity of 126,700 acre-feet for multipurpose storage; and about 52 miles of levee and channel improvements in lower reaches of Bear, Black Rascal, Mariposa, and Deadman Creeks, thereby tying the existing project channels into the Eastside Bypass of San Joaquin River flood control system. Haystack Mountain, Bear, and Owens projects would provide flood control only; Castle and Burns projects, flood control and recreation; Marguerite project, flood control and irrigation; and Mariposa project, all three purposes. Approved cost estimate (July 1974) for existing project is $50,500,000, of which $47,100,000 is Federal, including $2,970,000 for basic recreation facilities, and $3,400,000 is non-Federal. For future non-Federal reimbursement, see Local cooperation paragraph. Existing project was adopted by 1970 Flood Control Act (Document not yet printed.) Local cooperation. Based on cost allocation studies contained in Merced County Streams Review Report, about 26.5 percent of cost of Marguerite project and 17.7 percent of the cost of the Mariposa project (estimated at $3,800,000) is allocated to irrigation. Amount would be added to Central Valley Project and repaid through the sale of water from CVP by the U. S. Bureau of Reclamation. In addition, one-half the separable cost of recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement (estimated at $6,480,000) will be repaid over a period of years by local interests. If the Secretary of the Interior is unable to make necessary repayment arrangements for irrigation services to be provided at either of two reservoirs, Mariposa or Marguerite, within three years after request by the Secretary of the Army, such reservoir, or reservoirs, may be constructed without irrigation function and reservoir capacity reduced accordingly. 35-17 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 Regarding levees and channels, local interests must provide all lands, easements, and rights-ofway: hold and save the United States free from damages due to construction of works; maintain and operate works after completion; accomplish all relocations and alterations to existing improvements, including highway facilities, which may be required for construction of projects; plus prevent encroachment on channels and preserve, at 1968 capacities, the flood channels within project area which are not improved by proposed project. Merced County must provide guidance in preventing unwise future development of flood plain by use of appropriate flood plain management techniques, and must at least annually inform affected interests of degree of protection provided by project. Merced County Board of Supervisors by resolution November 1, 1966, and reaffirmed by letter August 18, 1967, and resolution of July 22, 1969, indicated willingness to meet requirements of local cooperation. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preconstruction engineering studies and design memoranda were initiated. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning was initiated. 26.

Location. Reservoir is on Kings River, about 25 miles east of Fresno, Calif., and channel improvements are on Kings River downstream from Lemoore weir, about 25 miles south of Fresno. (See Geological Survey quadrangles of area.) Existing project. Improvement is a unit in comprehensive plan for flood control and other related purposes for Sacramento-San Joaquin Basins. Project consists of a 429-foot high concrete gravity dam, including a gated overflow section with a maximum discharge capacity of 391,000 cubic feet per second, creating a reservoir with gross storage capacity of 1 million acrefeet, for flood control, irrigation, and related purposes. Outlet provisions for future power development are included in dam, but Federal construction of power-gefierating facilities is not authorized. Improvement also includes a limited amount of channel improvement on Kings River and its distributaries on valley floor about 25 miles south of Fresno. Channel improvement work will enlarge channel capacities and regulate flows in lower branches of the Kings River. There are nine public-use and recreation areas: One maintained by the Corps, four by the Forest Service, three jointly by the Corps and concession, and one by Fresno County. Also, five boat access-only areas are maintained by the Corps on the south side of reservoir. Approved cost estimate (July 1974) is $42,480,000, of which $41,700,000 is Federal (including $13,700 for basic recreation facilities) and $780,000 non- Federal for rights-of-way for downstream channel improvements. For future non-Federal reimbursement, see Local cooperation paragraph. Estimated Federal cost of recreation facilities for Pine Flat Lake, to be funded from Code 710 appropriations is $500,100 (July 1974) 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). 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 $11,731,563 for irrigation services through December 31, 1973. 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 arer at sites along reservoir perimeter. Total cost of development of these sites is about $37,500. Licenses. License No. 1988, effective April 1, 1955, was issued by Federal Power Commission to Pacific Gas and Electric Co. for hydroelectric power development of North Fork Kings River by the company upstream from the Pine Flat reservoir. Under interim Contract No. DA-04- 35-19 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 167-eng-1182 with the Department of the Army, Pacific Gas and Electric Co. paid for storage of power water in the Pine Flat reservoir May 15, 1954, through March 31, 1955. Current Contract No. DA-04-167-eng-1328 with the Department of the Army provides for storage of power water at the rate of 0.1375 per acre-foot; the contract covers April 1, 1955, through March 31, 2005. Total payment under these contracts through June 30, 1974 amounts to $2,478,798; these funds are paid to Sacramento District and deposited for return to the Treasury. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work, regular funds: Engineering and design continued. Code 710 funds: None. Maintenance: Maintenance and operation activities continued with condition and operation studies at a cost of $96,887 and major maintenance costs as follows: Dam and reservoir $74,145; service facilities $87,354; and recreation facilities $100,224. Structures were maintained in serviceable condition. Runoff of Kings River above Pine Flat Dam was above normal for the year. Maximum storage of 1,008,900 acre-feet occurred on June 8, 1974. Maximum daily inflow to reservoir was 12,320 cubic feet per second on June 7, 1974. Maximum outflow of 11,169 cubic feet per second occurred on June 9, 1974. Release of water for irrigation and spreading totaled 1,213,500 acre-feet. Water released for flood control amounted to 811,200 acre-feet. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction began in April 1947 and project is about 99 percent complete. Main dam was initiated in January 1950, completed in June 1954, and has been operating since February 1954 to provide flood protection for which it was designed. Total of 29.6 miles of channel improvement has been transferred to the Kings River Conservation District for maintenance. Recreation facilities for various recreation areas under Code 710 appropriation initiated in fiscal year 1960 are 100 percent complete. Work remaining consists of completion of minor channel improvements and recreation facilities in connection with overall development of reservoir area. 30.

Mean lower low water is plane of reference. Tidal range between higher high water and plane of reference and extreme tidal ranges under ordinary conditions at mouth of Coos River are 7.3 and 11 feet, respectively, and there is a tidal range of about 1 foot at head of navigation in both forks. Freshet stages usually reach a height of from 10 to 15 feet at Allegany, head of navigation on Millicoma River. Existing project was authorized by River and Harbor Acts of June 3, 1896 (H. Doc. 237, 53d Cong., 3d Sess.) and modified June 30, 1948 (S. Doc. 124, 80th Cong., 2d Sess.). Latest published maps are in these documents. Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Several small privately owned docks and landing places on the river are used by towboats and pleasure craft. There are no publicly owned docks. Present facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. Project modification provides for construction of terminal facilities open to all on equal terms. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: A total of 66,000 cubic yards of material was dredged. Condition at end of fiscal year. Originally authorized project providing for a channel from mouth of Coos River to head of navigation in both forks, to provide a depth of 3 feet generally and 1 foot near head of navigation, was completed in 1899. In March 1966 construction of project as modified by 1948 River and Harbor Act was completed except for removal of rock encountered, which was accomplished in August 1966. Since scour that had been anticipated in Coos River has not developed, it has been recommended that construction of stabilization work to be held in abeyance until need has been established. 9.

INSPECTION OF COMPLETED FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS Funds appropriated for inspection of completed local flood protection works are used to determine condition of completed works and to ascertain whether those works are being properly maintained by local interests. A total of 48 leveed areas and 209 bank protection works were inspected at various locations along both banks of Lower Columbia River below Bonneville Dam, along Oregon Coast and in Willamette River Basin. Of this total, 30 leveed areas in Oregon and 14 leveed areas in Washington along Lower Columbia River; and 12 leveed areas and 3 revetments along Oregon Coast were inspected July 1973 through June 1974. Also during May 1974, 208 revetments along Willamette River and tributaries were inspected. A representative of sponsoring districts accompanied the Portland District representatives performing the levee inspections. Aerial inspections of revetments in Willamette River Basin was supplemented by an on-site inspection at locations requiring maintenance. Deficiencies in maintenance and need for repairs were discussed with sponsoring districts' representatives and a report was made to each sponsor with recommendations for improving maintenance. The campaign to improve maintenance of completed Federal projects initiated by House Appropriations Committee on Civil Functions was continued. Periodic contact was maintained with uncooperative areas reported in fiscal year 1974 to ascertain any change in attitude and to provide technical assistance, if requested. Flood control and bank protection projects in the John Day and Umatilla River Basin areas were transferred to the Portland District in Fiscal 1974. Of the 110 sponsors of local flood protection projects inspected in Portland District, 15 were reported deficient in maintenance. Fiscal year costs were $34,964 and costs to June 30, 1974 were $406,201. 50. SCHEDULING FLOOD CONTROL RESERVOIR OPERATIONS Corps of Engineers monitored flood control operations at three Bureau of Reclamation sponsored projects (Prineville, Ochoco, and Emigrant Lake) and (Mossyrock) a municipally operated power project by the Tacoma City Light. The Bureau of Reclamation projects were partially constructed with flood control funds and thereby this phase of the project operation is subject to monitoring by the Corps of Engineers under Section 7, Flood Control Act of 1944. Monitoring of Mossyrock flood control operation is assigned to the Corps by the Federal Power Commission as 37-26 PORTLAND, OREG., DISTRICT the Mossyrock license calls for specific flood control regulation. The Bureau sponsored projects during Fiscal Year 1974 were operated satisfactorily for flood control. At Mossyrock, only one significant winter highwater occurred and a higher than normal spring runoff occurred from snowmelt. Regulation during the 15 January highwater stored 348,100 acre-feet at Mossyrock and the outflow was controlled to a peak of 60,900 cfs at Castle Rock, as compared to the goal of 70,- 000 cfs established for that station. All reservoirs filled to their maximum conservation levels following the flood season. Total cost in Fiscal Year 1974 of monitoring the four projects during Fiscal Year 1974 was $1,996. 51.

Project is on Columbia River, 42 miles east of Portland, Oreg., about 146 miles above mouth of river. For description of Columbia River see Improvement No. 5. Existing project. A dam, powerplant, and lock for power and navigation. Spillway dam extends across main channel from Washington shore to Bradford Island, which divides the river at this point. Overflow crest at 24 feet above mean sea level is surmounted by 18 vertical-lift steel gates placed between piers which extend to elevation 99 feet where a service roadway permits operation of two 350-ton gantry cranes for regulating gates. Powerhouse extending across Bradford Slough to Oregon shore has an installation of 10 units, consisting of two units of 43,200 kilowatts each and eight units of 54,000 kilowatts each, totaling 518,- 400 kilowatts. Ordinary and extreme fluctuations of river at lower lock gate are about 21 and 47 feet respectively. Project includes fish ladders and locks to serve both main channel and Bradford Slough channel. Navigation lock and powerhouse are founded on andesite, and main dam rests upon solidified sedimentary rock of volcanic origin. Pool created by dam provides a navigable channel with a depth of 30 feet and over between Bonneville and The Dalles Dams, a distance of 47 miles. Principal data concerning navigation lock spillway dam, and powerplant are set forth in Table 37-P. Dam, navigation lock, 10-unit power generating installation, fishways, and attendant buildings and grounds cost $83,239,395, of which $6,072,480 is for navigation facilities, $39,350,824 for power facilities and $37,816,091 for joint facilities, consisting of dam, fishways, buildings, and grounds, and headwall section of power units 0 to 6, cost of which $2,106,000 is allocated to dam and lake facilities. Recreation facilities may be provided pursuant to Flood Control Acts of 1944, 1946 and 1954. Estimated total Federal cost of completed project (1974) is $83,560,395 which includes $321,000 for construction of recreation facilities at completed project. (See Table 37-B for authorizing legislation.) A modification for peaking is required as a corrective measure to provided features for operation of the spillway, powerhouse and fish ladders to minimize adverse environmental effects under rapidly-changing flow conditions expected from The Dalles and John Day peaking plants. The project modification also provides for increased power installation by building a second powerhouse located on the Washington shore adjacent to the north end of the existing spillway. The new powerhouse would contain eight units of 67,600 kw each for a capacity of 540,800 kw to bring the total Bonneville capacity to 1,059,200 kw. Additional facilities would be included for fish passage, visitors and public recreation. Under authority of the Bonneville Project Act (August 26, 1937), a letter from Bonneville Power Administration to North Pacific Division dated January 21, 1965, requested construction of a second powerhouse. Estimated cost (1974) is $360,- 500,000 which includes $36,500,000 for modification for peaking and $324,000,000 for construction of second powerhouse. Local cooperation. None required.

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. 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. The Corps Waterways Experiment Station has developed a computer program for the Portland District that will predict the turbidity that can be expected at future storage projects. This program was utilized in the study of Rogue River 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. 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. Water surface profiles, crosssections and photographs were obtained from 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. 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 74) has been delayed. Expected installation will be sometime in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 1975. Total research and development costs were $3,- 941. 37-34 PORTLAND, OREG., DISTRICT TABLE 37-A See Section in Text Project 1. Alsea Bay and River, Oreg. 2. Chetco River, Oreg. 3.

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 S REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 Blackfoot. (See Geological Survey quadrangle sheets Paradise Valley, Cranes Flat, Portneuf, and Henrys Fork location and surroundings in immediate vicinity of project.) Existing project. See Table 39-B for authorizing legislation. 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. Construction to be accomplished by the Corps, with continued operation of project by Bureau of Indian Affairs. Estimated Federal cost of proposed modifications (July 1974) is $3,790,000. Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. A public meeting was held 1 May 1974 as part of the review procedure for the environmental impact statement. A draft statement was filed with the Council on Environmental Quality. 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 postauthorization changes. The Real Estate Design Memorandum was submitted December 1971 and approved 8 April 1972. The postauthorization report was approved by Office of Management and Budget 9 January 1973. 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. 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. See Table 39-B for authorizing legislation. 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. Estimated costs (July 1974) are $26,400,000 Federal and $151,000 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 $109,300 for construction and $1,161 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 $141,000 for construction and $11,700 annually for operation, maintenance, and replacement. In accordance with recjamation 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 $4,423,000 and $41,100, 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 Administration. Irrigation districts are to contract for repayment of cost allocated to irrigation. 39-2 WALLA WALLA, WASH., DISTRICT Local interests will be required to pay onefourth of the separable costs allocated to fish and wildlife enhancement, presently estimated at $10,000, and will be responsible for average annual costs of $2,300. Operations and results during fiscal year. Design plans and specifications were prepared for an abutment stripping contract. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction funds have been appropriated, but construction has not started. The Indians in the area object strongly to the project, and to date have been unsatisfied with settlements offered by the Government. A draft Environmental Impact Statement has been filed with the Council on Environmental Quality. 4. COLUMBIA RIVER BASIN, LOCAL FLOOD PROTECTION PROJECTS Location. Improvements included in this project are along Columbia River and its tributaries. Existing project.

Lake filling behind the dam scheduled for February 1975 and the first power generating unit is scheduled to go on the line April 1975. An Environmental Impact Statement was filed with the Council on Environmental Quality November 1971. Construction completion percentages are: relocations 68; lake area 43; dam 81; navigation lock 93; fish facilities 62; powerplant 88; recreation facilities 3; and backwater levees 69. Suit was filed in U.S. District Court on March 11, 1970 by the Association of Northwest 39-9 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1974 Steelheaders and other sport and conservation groups to halt construction on the Lower Granite project. Motion to dismiss the action was presented by the Government, and hearings were held in U.S. District Court in Spokane, Wash., on November 12, 1971. On December 14, 1971, a Memorandum of Opinion was filed concluding that the court lacked jurisdiction, and the action was dismissed. The Plaintiffs appealed that decision to the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The appellate court reversed and ordered the district court to review (a) whether granting plaintiff's claims would constitute such an intolerable burden to governmental functions so as to outweight any alleged private harm, and (b) whether the issues have become moot as an EIS and mitigation plan have, in the meantime, been prepared. On May 20, 1974, an informal agreement resulted from a pre-trial conference. Revised statements of claims will be submitted. 21. LOWER MONUMENTAL LOCK AND DAM, WASH. Location.

SNAKE RIVER DOWNSTREAM FROM JOHNSON BAR LANDING, OREG., WASH., & IDAHO Location. On Snake River downstream from Johnson Bar Landing, river mile 231. Snake River, which is largest tributary of Columbia River, rises in Yellowstone National Park in western part of Wyoming, flows generally westerly for about 1,000 miles, and empties into Columbia River near Pasco, Wash., 324 miles from Pacific Ocean. Previous projects. For details see Annual Reports, page 2246 for 1903; page 1986 for 1906; page 1991 for 1915; and page 1981 for 1962. Existing project. See Table 39-B for authorizing legislation. The River and Harbor Act of 1945 authorized construction of dams as necessary and open channel improvements for purposes of providing slack-water navigation and irrigation between mouth of Snake River and Lewiston, Idaho. That authorization modified previous authorizations only for that portion of improvement below Lewiston, Idaho. Acts of June 13, 1902, and August 30,1935, as they pertain to open river improvement from Lewiston, Idaho, to Johnson Bar Landing, remain part of existing project. Improvements included in existing project are Ice Harbor Lock and Dam-Lake Sacajawea; Little Goose Lock and Dam-Lake Bryan; Lower Granite Lock and Dam; Lower Monumental Lock and Dam; and open-river improvement, Lewiston to Johnson Bar Landing. Each of the four locks and dams is described in an indivdual report, and cost and financial data for the entire project are shown on Tables 39-A and 39-I. Local cooperation. None required. Terminal facilities. On Snake River from the mouth to Johnson Bar Landing there are 11 privately owned barge terminals in use for shipping grain, petroleum products, fertilizers, cement, and other general cargo. There are also 5 marinas and 25 small-boat launching ramps, all open to public use. The facilities serve slackwater navigation to Snake River mile 107, the site of Lower Granite Dam; that slack-water will reach the Lewiston, Idaho-Clarkston, Wash., area when the lake behind Lower Granite Dam is filled February 1975. Operations and results during fiscal year. See individual reports for Ice Harbor, Lower Monumental, Little Goose, and Lower Granite locks and dams. On Snake River from Lewiston, Idaho, to Johnson Bar Landing, reconnaissance and condition surveys were conducted and navigation aids were maintained. Condition at end of fiscal year.

Anchorage is in southcentral Alaska on the southeast shore of Knik Arm, north of Turnagain Arm near its 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 jetties and purchase of a dredge have 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 oceangoing 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. Expansion of the city general cargo wharf is underway. Operations and results during the fiscal year. Regular funds, maintenance: Annual maintenance dredging contract was awarded June 4, 1973 and dredging was completed in September 1973 with 58,817 cubic yards of material removed. 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 Ocean Dock in July 1961; city and Army funds were used. Ocean Dock was destroyed in the March 27, 1964 earthquake. 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. During the design stage, the project basin was modified to match City Dock, including expansion then underway. 2. BETHEL SMALL-BOAT HARBOR, ALASKA Location. The village of Bethel is 65 miles upriver on the north bank of the Kuskokwim River, which flows through southwestern Alaska. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 9302 and USGS Map Bethel D8.) channel by deepening, widening, and straightening of the upper 6,800 feet of Brown's Slough. Estimated cost of the project (1973) is $1,000,000 in Federal funds, plus $34,000 from local interests (See paragraph on local cooperation). Range between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 3.4 feet and extreme tidal range is 4.0 feet, during low summer water flow in Kuskokwim River. Water level also depends on river stage; tidal effects decrease with higher river flows, disappearing only at the 20-yearfrequency flood stage. (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. Provide, without cost to the United States all necessary lands, easements, and rights-of-way required for construction and subsequent maintenance of the project, including suitable soil-disposal areas with necessary retaining dikes, bulkheads, and embankments therefor. Hold and save the United States free from damages that may result from construction and maintenance of the project. Accomplish without cost to the United States alterations and relocations as required in sewer, water supply, drainage, and other utility facilities. Establish regulations concerning discharge of untreated sewage, garbage, and other pollutants in the waters of the anchorage by users thereof, which regulations shall be in accordance with applicable laws or regulations of Federal, State, and local authorities responsible for pollution prevention and control. Assure full responsibility for all project costs in excess of the Federal cost limitation of $1,000,000. City of Bethel signed the local cooperation agreement on June 5, 1973. Terminal facilities. The seawall at Bethel has facilities for loading and unloading barges. Other vessels must be tied to shore or pulled onto the riverbank. Operations and results during fiscal year. Regular funds, new work: Project-owned hydraulic dredge was sandblasted and repainted. Condition at end offiscal year. Construction has not been initiated due to inability of local interest to acquire lands, easements, and rights-of-way. A decision to deauthorize the project is being held in abeyance pending receipt of views of the State of Alaska. 3. CRAIG HARBOR, ALASKA Existing project. Project includes provision of a Location. Craig is on Craig Island adjacent to 7,700-foot-long small-boat harbor and entrance Prince of Wales Island in southeastern Alaska, 40-2 ALASKA DISTRICT about 200 miles south of Juneau.

Phase I of Tanana levee is complete. Design of interior drainage channels B and C is complete. Phase I Moose Creek Dam foundation excavation is 84 percent complete. 21. GOLD CREEK, ALASKA Location. Rises in coastal mountains about 4 miles east of Juneau and flows through western section of city of Juneau and empties into Gastineau Channel. Its total length is about 5 miles and it drains an area of about 10.2 square miles. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 8235.) Previous projects. For details see page 1608 of Annual Report for 1964. Existing project. A reinforced-concrete channel lining 1,717 feet long for portion of Gold Creek passing through city of Juneau together with necessary intake and downstream energy dissipating structures. Project will provide protection to city of Juneau from a project flood of 4,800 cubic feet per second. Project modified in 1962 reinforcing concrete lining of channel, removal of material to form a catch basin, construct concrete weir or check dam and place derrick stone for channel protection at head of channel. Project was authorized by 1954 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 54, 82d Cong., 1st Sess., contains latest map.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. City of Juneau contributed $1,900 for repair of existing channel invert structures. Operations and results during fiscal year. Regular funds, new work: Contract to repair 600 feet existing channel, lining was awarded on April 15, 1974, and work continued throughout the fiscal year. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of 2,080 linear feet of reinforced concrete-lined channel was commenced in April 1957 and completed in March 1958. Establishment of staff gages in the structure for engineering research purposes was accomplished in fiscal year 1960. Rehabilitation of channel lining and construction of a stilling basin was accomplished from March to June 1962. Four test areas in the channel, each 25 feet long, were included to test materials for cohesion and resistance to abrasion. Two of the four test areas installed in 1962 deteriorated and are considered failures. Supplemental design memorandum was completed and approved in February 1967. As a result of this, a repair contract was awarded in April of 1974. Work is 30 percent complete and scheduled to be completed by 29 June 1975. 22. INSPECTION OF COMPLETED FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS Inspections were made of all federally constructed local flood protection projects to insure proper maintenance by local interests. Salmon River was inspected July 1973; Klutina River, August 1973; Gold Creek, December 1973; Fairbanks, Tanana River and Chena Slough, February 1974; Lowell Creek, February 1974; and Skagway River, May 1974. 23. OTHER AUTHORIZED FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS See Table 40-D. 24. FLOOD CONTROL WORK UNDER SPECIAL AUTHORIZATION Emergency flood control activities-repair, flood fighting, and rescue work (Public Law 99, 84th Congress, and antecedent legislation). Federal costs for fiscal year were $34,909 for advance preparation and $82,406 for emergency operations. Multiple-Purpose Projects Including Power 25. 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.) Existing project. Snettisham is a two-stage power project. The initial stage includes tapping Long Lake and Crater Lake, construction of an underground powerhouse, installation of three power units and construction of a transmission line to Juneau, Alaska. The ultimate stage would provide a dam at the head of Lost Lake to increase the energy capability of Lost Lake. The Lost Lake Dam is in a "Deferred" status. Long Lake (elevation 815'), transporting the water through an approximately horizontal tunnel 8,400 feet long and a 1,400-foot penstock dropping at a 46 degree 40-10 ALASKA DISTRICT angle to the underground powerhouse at tidewater to drive two turbines with a generating capacity of 46,700 kilowatts. Power from two generators to be supplied to Juneau by 138 kilovolt overhead transmission lines except for a submarine cable traversing Taku Inlet. Crater Lake phase of initial construction provides for tapping Crater Lake (elevation 1,022') to drive a third turbine to be installed in the underground powerhouse (constructed under the Long Lake phase of initial construction) to provide an additional generating capacity of 27,000 kilowatts. Estimated cost of initial stage construction is $94,300,000 (July 1974). The project will be turned over to the Alaska Power Authority for operation and maintenance. (See Table 40-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. During fiscal year 1974, the Long Lake phase of the project was completed with power being delivered to the Juneau area in December 1973. However, power transmission was short lived due to the collapse of three towers on Salisbury Ridge during the month of February. Prime causes of the failures were high winds, combined with heavy icing. Although the line was designed for loadings in excess of those recommended by the National Electrical Safety Code, the line testifies mutely to its inadequacy. Repairs to the line were started 24 April 1974 with award of a construction contract. All necessary supply contracts for the repairs have been awarded. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction was initiated 11 July 1967. The Long Lake phase of the first stage of the project is essentially complete. Temporary restoration of the damaged transmission over Salisbury Ridge is about 20 percent complete with power-on-line scheduled for October. Permanent replacement or relocation of this section of line is under study with some work scheduled for the summer of 1975. General Investigations 26. 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 million. (See Table 40-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Regular funds, new work: A technical update of the Bradley Lake Project was initiated by AE contract with Sverdrup and Parcel and Associates on 18 June 1974 for a total cost of $49,- 375 consisting of $20,400 from FY 1974 funds and $28,975 from FY 1975 funds. Funds in addition to the contract amount totaling $3,109 were also expended in FY 1974 for contract preparation and administration. Condition at end of fiscal year. Reappraisal of the economic and financial feasibility was initiated in March 1974 because of renewed interest in the project resulting primarily from the nations awareness of energy shortages. The technical update is scheduled for completion in FY 1975. The investigation is being coordinated with the Alaska Power Administration, Department of the Interior, the potential marketing agency. 27. SURVEYS Fiscal year costs of $267,932 for surveys include $167,724 for navigation studies, $55,210 for flood control studies, $5,300 for special studies, $29,698 for coordination studies and $10,000 for a restudy. 28. COLLECTION AND STUDY OF BASIC DATA Technical assistance, information, flood plain management guidance and other flood plain management services have been provided to military and nonmilitary Federal agencies, State, and local government agencies, and others at a fiscal year cost of $149,615. The flood plain information reports for Ketchikan, Carlanna, Whipple, and Hoadley Creeks in the Ketchikan Gateway Borough, and for Peters Creek in the Greater Anchorage Area Borough were completed and presented. Fiscal year cost was $88,- 839. Additional activities included the preparation of Flood Insurance Studies for Housing and Urban Development. Three Type 16 studies were completed at a total fiscal year cost of $3,569. Thirty-four type 7 studies were also completed at a total fiscal year cost of $33,981.

The Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors is a continuing body created by Sec. 3, 1902 River and Harbor Act. The Board comprises seven senior engineer officers: the Chairman, five members who are Division Engineers (rotative basis) from continental U. S. Army Engineer Divisions, 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 Jun. 13, 1902, and subsequent acts and amendments are to: (a) conduct an independent review of survey reports covering projects for river and harbor, flood control, and multiplepurpose 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) 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; and (c) 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 Sec. 3, Public Law 88-172. An additional statutory duty was assigned the Board under the terms of the Merchant Marine Act of Jun. 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, and ex-officio secretary of the American Section, Permanent International Association of Navigation Congresses, a quasiofficial organization. On Jun. 30, 1974, the Board was composed of the following members: MG D. A. Raymond, Chairman; MG Charles C. Noble, Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, Lower Mississippi Valley; MG Richard H. Groves, Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Atlantic; MG Richard E. McConnell, Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Pacific; BG George B. Fink, Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, South Pacific; BG Carroll N. LeTellier, Division Engineer, U. S: Army Engineer Division, South Atlantic; and COL William G. Kratz, Resident Member. In addition to .the foregoing, the following officers were also assigned for a period during the year to membership on the Board: MG A. P. Rollins, Jr., Chairman; MG Harold R. Parfitt, Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, Southwestern; and MG Ernest Graves, Jr., Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central. A summary of investigations authorized by the Congress from establishment of the Board in 1902 to the end of the Fiscal Year 1974, the number of 41-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 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 Jun. 30, 1974, the Board took final action on 8,236 reports, recommending favorably on 3,634 and unfavorably on 4,602. During Fiscal Year 1974 the Board held four meetings of 1 to 2 days' duration in Washington. The Board considered 68 reports, acting favorably on 21, unfavorably on 45, arind returned 2. The Board recommended construction of projects totaling $207,851,200, of which $130,254,000 was the estimated U. S. cost and $77,597,200 the cost to local interests for work and cash contributions. The 45 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 staff also submitted comments on 67 reports as follows: 2 Type II Comprehensive Studies, 9 reviews on small projects prepared under continuing authorities, and 23 reviews of General Design Memorandums. Board staff comments were submitted on 2 Mississippi River Commission Reports and on 31 miscellaneous reports. In addition, the Board staff participated in 24 conferences under the Intensive Management Program. Studies prescribed by various River and Harbor Acts and Sec. 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 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.

Rock Island District: Mississippi River (Sec. 6) levees from upper limits of St. Louis District to Rock Island, Ill. (1,437 miles AHP). Table 42-N shows work accomplished. MISSISSIPPI RIVER AND ALLUVIAL VALLEY BELOW CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO. Location and description. The Mississippi River rises in Lake Itasca, Minn., and flows generally southerly for 2,340 miles through the central portion of United States to empty into the Gulf of Mexico 115 miles below New Orleans. It is improved for barge navigation for 1,832 miles to Minneapolis, Minn. The Mississippi River and its major tributaries, the Missouri, Ohio, St. Francis, White, Arkansas, Yazoo, and Red- Old Rivers, drain 1,245,000 square miles in all or part of 31 states between the Rocky and Appalachian Mountains and part of two Canadian provinces. Below Cape Girardeau, Mo., 53 miles above Ohio River, river bottomlands widen abruptly into an alluvial valley of 35,460 square miles which was originally subject to flood overflow. A major part of the alluvial valley has been protected from floods by levees which confine floodflows within a floodplain 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 Jun. 30, 1974, show approximate all-time 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 50,000 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 all-time ranges in stages recorded at representative gages (roinded to nearest foot) are 60 feet at Cairo, 49 feet at Memphis, 57 feet at Red River Landing, and 21 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 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- 42-2 MISSISSIPPI RIVER COMMISSION by 300-foot navigation channel between Baton Rouge, La., and Cairo, Ill.; for salinity-control structures; and for channel realinement and improvement including bank stabilization and dikes to reduce flood heights, control natural tendency of river to lengthen by meandering, and protect levees from being destroyed by caving banks. Locations of major 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 42-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 project began in 1928 and has continued throughout ensuing years. Based on the estimated cost of $5,044,484,000 (Jul. 1, 1974 price levels) and actual expenditures through Jun. 30, 1974, of $1,884,531,000, the entire project is about 37 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 two-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, 1970, for New Orleans, La.; also folio of Flood Control and Navigation Maps of Mississippi River, Cairo, Ill., to the Gulf of Mexico (41st edition), 1973. Project cost. Total monetary authorizations, including the modifications to Jun. 30, 1974, are $2,159,922,600. Total allotted for flood control, including maintenance charges through Aug. 18, 1941, chargeable under authorizations to Jun. 30, 1974, was $2,039,687,200. (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 289th session was held, Sep. 24-28, 1973, on board the U. S. MV Mississippi en route on the Mississippi River from Cairo, Ill., to Old River, La., thence from Old River to Simmesport, La., and down the Atchafalaya River to Morgan City, La. 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. An inspection was made of Island 63 on Sep. 26, 1973. Public meetings held at Cairo, Ill., Memphis, Tenn., Vicksburg, Miss., and Morgan City, La., were attended by about 160 representatives of local governmental, navigation, levee, commercial, and other interests. About 50 of those in attendance addressed the Commission and presented problems pertaining to flood control and navigation. This session was adjourned at Morgan City, La., at 5:50 p.m., Sep. 28, 1973. The 290th session was held Jan. 13-17, 1974. The Commission assembled in Nashville, Tenn., for the purpose of beginning an inspection trip of adjoining Divisions. The purpose of the trip was for the Commission to receive a general updating on the developments and changes in the tributaries as they affect flood control and navigation on the Lower Mississippi. An inspection was made of the Ohio River, North Central, Missouri River, and Southwestern Divisions. Meetings with the Division Engineers and other interested parties were held at Nashville, Tenn., Jan. 13 and 14; Chicago, Ill., Jan. 15; Omaha, Nebr., Jan. 16; and Dallas, Tex., Jan. 17; after which this session was adjourned. The 291st session was held May 13-17, 1974, on board the U. S. MV Mississippi en route on the Mississippi River from Cairo, Ill., to mile 75. Bank protection works, levees, and channel conditions were observed to the extent permitted by river stages. The Commission visited the Mid- America Exposition in Memphis on May 14, to see the Corps of Engineers' exhibit. On May 15, the Commission visited the Waterways Experiment Station at Vicksburg, Miss., to observe the Island 63 and Old River models. Approximately 200 persons attended public meetings held at Cairo, Ill., Memphis, Tenn., Greenville, Miss., Natchez, Miss., and New Orleans, La. About 45 of the representatives presented various problems pertaining to flood control and navigation. This entire session was adjourned at New Orleans, La., on May 17, 1974. Records of Proceedings of all sessions of the Mississippi River Commission are on file in the office of the President. Alluvial Valley Mapping General. Contoured quadrangles and general maps of the alluvial valley are available for departmental use and public distribution under prescribed regulations. Road-map-type information folders of principal portions of overall project were published along with papers on the subject of flood control and navigation. Preparation and publication of quadrangle maps (scale 1:62,500) continued. The 1973(41st) edition of the folio of flood control and navigation maps, scale 1:62,500, covering Mississippi River from Cairo, Ill., to Gulf of Mexico was compiled and printed. Some 36,174 flight-line miles of blackand- white aerial photography (various scales) and 295 hours of oblique photography were flown along Mississippi River and tributaries in the New Orleans, Vicksburg, and Memphis Districts. In addition, 7 miles in color were flown in the Vicksburg District. Plan of Development 42-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 for Civil Works Map is in progress.

Series conversions of Marvell, Hunter, and Brinkley, Ark., are ready for printing. Color separations of Millington, Jericho, McKenzie, Atwood, and Trimble, Tenn., are under way. Revised White River navigation folio has been printed. Floods The draft of the Post Flood Report covering Mississippi River and tributaries flooding during 1973 was prepared. Target date for distribution of the completed report is November 1974. Observations in the Districts: Memphis District-Mississippi River crest stage of 52.19 feet at Cairo gage on Jan. 31, 1974, and maximum discharge of 1,382,200 cubic feet per second, occurred on Jan. 31, 1974, at Hickman, Ky., and crest stage of 36.35 feet at Memphis on Feb. 6, 1974, with maximum discharge of 1,489,800 cubic feet on Feb. 7, 1974. Vicksburg District-Stages on the Mississippi River were above normal during the year. Maximum stages occurred in February with crest stages 6.5 feet below flood stage at Arkansas City, 2.4 feet above flood stage at Vicksburg, and 2.9 feet above flood starge at Natchez The Ouachita River stages were very high during the year. Crest stages occurred in January and February from L&D No. 6 to Jonesville and in June above L&D No. 6. They were 9.9 feet above flood stage at Arkadelphia and 13.5 feet above flood stage at Camden, Ark. Operation of the flood control works reduced maximum stages by 5.0 feet at Arkadelphia and 2.4 feet at Camden. Major flooding of long duration occurred almost everywhere in the Yazoo Basin. Maximum stages were 4.3 feet above flood stage at Swan Lake, 1.3 feet above flood stage at Greenwood, and 5.4 feet above flood stage at Yazoo City. Operation of the flood control works reduced stages an average of about 3.2 feet on the Coldwater River, 4.1 feet on the Tallahatchie River, 4.9 feet at Greenwood, and 2.6 feet at Yazoo City. The Big Black River crested approximately 10.6 feet above flood stage during January 1974. New Orleans District-On the Mississippi River, the Red River Landing gage (flood stage 45 feet) recorded 50.2 feet on Feb. 17, 1974, and New Orleans (Carrollton, flood stage 17 feet) crested Feb. 16, 1974, at a stage of 17.5 feet. Simmesport gage (flood stage 41 feet) at head of Atchafalaya Basin recorded a maximum of 37.9 feet on Feb. 16, 1974. The Red River at Alexandria (flood stage 32 feet) recorded 28.5 feet on Jan. 28, 1974. Studies and Investigations General investigations. Surveys and reports, authorized by laws and by Senate and House Public Works Committee resolutions, were made as required. Collection and study of basic data continued. The Summary Report on West Texas and Eastern New Mexico Water Import was completed and forwarded to the Chief of Engineers Oct. 19, 1973. By letter dated Jul. 24, 1974, to the Senate and House Committees, the Secretary of the Army concurred in the findings of the Chief of Engineers that while it is engineeringly feasible to divert water from the Mississippi River to the High Plains, the cost would be very high-more than $16 billion at 1972 price levels-excluding the cost of any power generation facilities that may be required. The environmental impacts to the gulf area and along the diversion route could be significantly adverse. Furthermore, considering all quantified primary and secondary benefits-primarily irrigation-the project would not be economically justified under current Federal planning evaluation criteria. He recommended that no further study be undertaken by the Corps of Engineers at this time. The Water Resources Development Act of 1974 (Public Law 93-251) requires the Secretary of the Army, acting through the Chief of Engineers, to perform several new functions: Of special interest is that Sec. 1 establishes a two-phase authorization procedure for recommended projects. This section authorized projects for phase I general design memoranda as listed in Table 42-D "Authorization Legislation." Engineering studies. A research program was continued for development of materials and more effective and economical design of regulation features for placing and stabilizing the Mississippi River in a suitable alinement. Studies were formulated to investigate adverse channel deterioration trends observed during the 1973 and 1974 floods. The 1973 adjustments to the Mississippi River 42-4 MISSISSIPPI RIVER COMMISSION and tributaries project flood flow line were based on analytical and physical model tests that were designed to identify the problem areas and the relative magnitude of the flow-line adjustments. These investigations were limited by the data available and the time frame allotted. Because of the magnitude and cost involved in the levee raises, a study has been initiated to refine the flow-line adjustments. This study will include a reevaluation of the flow lines on the Mississippi River throughout the area covered by the Mississippi River and tributaries project. The study will extend into the tributary areas that are influenced by the Mississippi River flows such as the Red River backwater area, Atchafalaya Basin Floodway, and the backwater areas of the Yazoo River, Arkansas-White Rivers, and the St. Francis River. Mr. Eugene Graves has been placed under contract as a consultant for this study and is available to provide technical advice. During the 1973 flood and the 1974 high water, the hydrological data-gathering activities within the valley were increased in both coverage and frequency in order to develop a current data base for investigating the adequacy of the project flood flow line. An extensive program of channel and overbank surveying was initiated to complete the data base. Mississippi River-Levees Operations and results durjng fiscal year. This feature consists of construction of new, and enlargement of existing, levees to approved grade and section; construction and restoration of levee berms; and construction, repair, and maintenance of roads on levees. Work accomplished was as follows: New Orleans District-Enlargement of 0.1 mile of levee. See Table 42-K. Vicksburg District-Restoration of 3.9 miles of levee berms. See Table 42-L. Memphis District-Construction of 2.4 miles enlargement and roadway embankment; 5.9 miles grade raise; and 26.3 miles of gravel surfacing. See Table 42-M. Condition at end of fiscal year. There are 1,599.3 miles of levee now authorized for the Mississippi River below Cape Girardeau, of which 1,592.5 are in place with 985.2 built to approved grade and section. The Main Stem Levee System consisting of 2,195.7 miles, of which 1,286.6 have been completed to approved grade and section, 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 189.7 essentially completed (174.7 to grade and section and 15.0 to grade only). Graveled or hardsurfaced roads have been constructed on 1,463.7 miles of these levees. See Tables 42-K, -L, and -M. Below Baton Rouge, in New Orleans District, about 133 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 Sec. 6, 1928 Act, is summarized in Table 42-N. Mississippi River-Channel Improvements Operations and results during fiscal year. Bank revetment and dikes: Construction of 15.6 miles of new bank revetment and 3.4 miles of reinforcement of existing revetment along the Mississippi River was completed by Government plant and hired labor, and construction of 4.8 miles of new dikes was 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 48,104,000 cubic yards for channel and harbor maintenance and channel construction and revetment. Minimum channel depth of 9 feet was maintained. Dredging shown in Table 42-G was done with the following plant: New Orleans District, one contract cutterhead dredge 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 two leased cutterhead dredges. (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 interests 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 42-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 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 671.4 miles of operative bank revetment and 142.5 miles of dikes on the Mississippi and lower Ohio Rivers as listed in Tables 42-H, -I, and -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 94 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.

The U. S. Army Coastal Engineering Research Center (CERC) was established under authority of Public Law 172, 88th Cong., 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 CERC. The report review function was transferred to the Board of Engineers for River 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 CERC 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 1974 the following served as members of the Coastal Engineering Research Board: MG John W. Morris, U. S. Army, Director of Civil Works, Office, Chief of Engineers, President; MG Daniel A. Raymond, U. S. Army, Division Engineer, South Atlantic Division; MG Ernest Graves, U. S. Army, Division Engineer, North Central Division; MG Richard E. McConnell, U. S. Army, Division Engineer, North Pacific Division; BG George B. Fink, U. S. Army, Division Engineer, South Pacific Division; BG Carroll N. LeTellier, U. S. Army, Division Engineer, South Atlantic Division; BG Walter O. Bachus, U. S. Army, Division Engineer, North Central 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 (until his death in May 1974); and Dr. Robert G. Dean, Chairman, Department of Coastal and Oceanographic Engineering, University of Florida. COL James L. Trayers was Executive Secretary to the Board and the Director of the Center. CERC is the principal research and development facility of the Corps in the field of coastal engineering. The mission of CERC is to: a. Conceive, plan, and conduct research and data collection in coastal engineering and nearshore oceanography to: (1) Provide a better understanding of the littoral forces (e.g., waves, winds, water levels, tides, currents) and the resultant coastal processes and the interaction of these forces and processes with shores and beaches, coastal and offshore structures, and the materials forming these shores, beaches, and structures; (2) Provide scientific and engineering data and design criteria; and (3) Determine the effects of the coastal activities of the Corps of Engineers on the ecology of the coastal zone. Research is directed toward application to shore and beach erosion control; flood and storm protection; the location, layout, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of harbor and of coastal and offshore structures; navigation improvement; and recreation. b. Publish findings and data resulting from research and other information concerning coastal phenomena which are useful to the Corps of Engineers and the public. c. Provide consulting services to the Corps of Engineers and other public agencies as requested or directed: (1) On the planning and design of coastal and offshore works; (2) On coastal and nearshore phenomena and related engineering and environmental problems; and (3) By reviewing studies and plans and specifications for coastal and offshore engineering works. d. Operate a Coastal Engineering Information and Analysis Center to collect, evaluate, analyze, and disseminate coastal engineering information. 43-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 Operations and results during fiscal year. The staff of CERC reviewed 16 reports for technical adequacy, of which 7 concerned navigation projects, 7 concerned beach erosion control projects, and 2 concerned combined beach erosion-hurricane protection 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. Five Technical Memoranda were issued by CERC and 16 manuscripts in all categories were backlogged for preparation to go to press. Four technical manuscripts were published in the Miscellaneous Papers series. Ten technical papers by CERC staff published elsewhere in the technical press were issued as CERC Reprints. CERC's major new compendium on shore protection, "Shore Protection Manual," was completed and published. It replaces the out-of-print Technical Report No. 4, "Shore Protection Planning and Design." Work was also continued on preparation of a broader scope compendium entitled "Coastal Engineering Manual," with one of the chapter reports completed and one near completion. The staff worked on several major research or engineering projects for various agencies and prepared reports thereon. A training course in coastal engineering was given to a group of trainees from the Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors; a special course in coastal engineering was given at North Central Division for their staff; and a course specifically on the "Shore Protection Manual" and its use was given at the U. S. Army Engineer Division, South Pacific, for Pacific Coast Districts; lectures were given by staff members to universities and to technical and nontechnical 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. Contract research to supplement staff activities was carried out at universities and with institutions and commercial concerns; funds were supplied other Corps offices for data collection; and funds were provided the U. S. Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station to assist in carrying out a laboratory portion of the generalized tidal inlet study. 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 coastal 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, wave direction measurements, 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, wave refraction and effects on design waves, study of effect of offshore islands, evaluation of completed coastal works, and others. 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 Pit River Basin on the north to Tehachapi Mountains on the south. These rivers 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.

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. *All cost and financial statements and authorizing legislation 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 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 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; 1 mine is licensed, but does not 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 1974) that improvements to recreation areas will cost $340,000 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. Estimate 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 through December 28, 1972) and $48,000 per year between December 29, 1972, and December 28, 1992, in return for use of head at Englebright Dam and generation of hydroelectric power. Total payment through June 30, 1974, amounts to $606,393; 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, 1974, amounts to $373,151. These funds are paid to Sacramento District and deposited for return to the Treasury. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance and operation activities continued at North Fork Dam at a cost of $25,311; and at Harry L. Englebright Dam at a cost of $62,912, including recreation facilities ($11,653). 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 debriscontrol structures are in good condition. Public use of these reservoir recreation areas greatly overtaxes present capacities. 3. TREATMENT OF YUBA RIVER DEBRIS SITUATIONRESTRAINING 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 44-2 CALIFORNIA DEBRIS COMMISSION 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 by hired labor. 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 149 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. 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.) 44-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 Estimated (July 1973) 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: Minor levee reconstruction and engineering continued. Project prevented an estimated $90,000,000 in damages from the January 1974 floods. 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. Cutoffs at Collins Eddy and between Wild Irishman and Kinneys Bends were made in 1918 and 1919, respectively. Sacramento weir was completed in 1917, Fremont weir in 1924, Tisdale and Moulton weirs in 1932, and Colusa weir in 1933. Outfall gates at Knights Landing were constructed in 1930 and at mouth of Butte Slough in 1936. Pumping plants on Sutter Bypass were completed in 1944. Work items with reference to clearing, snagging, rectification of channels, and bank protection on Sacramento River and tributaries in Tehama County and from Red Bluff southerly, provided for by 1941 Flood Control Act were accomplished in fiscal years 1947, 1948, 1949, and 1951. Work remaining comprises completion of levee stage construction, Yolo Bypass and Cache Slough. (See table 44-C for total cost of existing project to June 30, 1974.)

Doc. 98 47th Cong., 1st sess.1 (Amendment of sec. 13, Act of Mar. 1, 1893.)1 REGULATION OF HYDRAULIC MINING AND PREPARATION OF PLANS (See Section 1 of Text) Created California Debris Commission and authorized: (a) Hydraulic mining under its regulation in drainage areas of Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers, if possible without injury to navigability of these river systems or to lands adjacent thereto; and (b) preparation of plans by Commission for improvement of navigability of these river systems, and flood and debris-control therein. Authorized California Debris Commission to permit hydraulic mining without construction of impounding works, provided there is no injury to navigability of above river systems or lands adjacent thereto. Amended Act of Mar. 1, 1893, which provides for construction of debris dams or other restraining works by California Debris Commission and collection of a 3-percent tax on gross proceeds of each mine using such facilities, so as to eliminate this tax and substitute an annual tax per cubic yard mined, obtained by dividing total capital cost of each dam, reservoir, and rights-of-way, by total capacity of reservoir for restraint of debris; and authorized revocation of Commission orders permitting such mining, for failure to pay this annual tax within 30 days after its due date; and also authorized receipt of money advances, from mineowners to aid such construction, to be refunded later from annual payments of yardage taxes on material mined. Added at end of Sec. 23 of above Act, a provision that Secretary of the 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, these payments are to be deposited to credit of such reservoir project, reducing its capital cost to be repaid by tax on mining operations.

ARMY ENGINEER WATERWAYS EXPERIMENT STATION Organization and functions. The Waterways Experiment Station is a field operating agency of the Chief of Engineers operating under the staff supervision of the Chief, Research & Development Office, in accordance with General Orders No. 4, 1974. It was originally established as a hydraulic laboratory, June 18, 1929, under the President, Mississippi River Commission, by direction of the Chief of Engineers. Colonel G. H. Hilt, 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 support of the civil and military missions of the Chief of Engineers in the scientific fields of hydraulics, soil mechanics, concrete, expedient construction, nuclear and conventional weapons effects and explosives excavation, protective structures, vehicle mobility, environmental relationships, engineering geology, rock mechanics, and pavements. On a reimbursable basis, the 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 development and scientific and engineering computer services. 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 audiovisual training aids); the Corps of Engineers motion picture lending library and the Corps Guide Specifications service. During Fiscal Year 1974, 172 reports of individual studies conducted at the Waterways Experiment Station, 11 in-house translations, 12 contract translations, 16 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 5,100 miscellaneous assignments for the Waterways Experiment Station and other offices. Operations and results duringfiscal year. Work accomplished at the Waterways Experiment Station is, in general, initially financed by a revolving fund, with direct reimbursement from agencies for whom the work is performed. The Station's program for Fiscal Year 1974 was $36,815,878 of which $33,890,787 was charged to establishments served for research investigations and related services, and $2,925,091 for permanent improvements and equipment. Of the reimbursable work, $15,536,613 was charged to civil funds, $17,902,990 to military funds, and $451,184 to nongovernmental agencies. Work includes $5,399,462 performed by contract. 45-1 PERMANENT INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF NAVIGATION CONGRESSES The United States by act of Jun. 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 properly 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, $3,000 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. 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 exofficio Chairman and Secretary, respectively, of the National Commission. The Secretary handles all administrative matters of the American Section. During Fiscal Year 1974, National Commissioners were: MG J. W. Morris, USA, exofficio Chairman; COL William G. Kratz, CE, USA, ex-officio Secretary; Mr. Kenneth J. Bousquet; COL Carl H. Bronn, USA (Ret); RADM Roderick Y. Edwards, USCG (Ret); Mr. Minard I. Foster; Honorable David W. Oberlin; Mr. J. W. Hershey; Mr. Duane Orr; and Mr. Thorndike Saville. Membership of the American Section on Jun. 30, 1974, totaled 637, consisting of 163 life, 409 individual, and 65 corporate members. A total of 84 new individual members and 26 corporate members were added during the fiscal year, and 50 individual members and 17 corporate members deleted either through resignations, death, or nonpayment of dues. Federal funds from annual appropriations were estimated as follows: $3,000 for annual U. S. contribution to the association, $14,795 for expenses of representative to meetings, and $2,240 for miscellaneous expenditures. INVESTIGATIONS AND SUPERVISION OF PROJECTS UNDER FEDERAL WATER POWER ACT The Federal Water Power Act of Jun. 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 development 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 Jun. 23, 1930, entitled "An Act to Reorganize the Federal Power Commission," Secs. 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 was authorized to appoint such officers and employees as necessary in executing its function. By title II, Public Utility Actof 1935, the original Federal Water Power Act was made Part I of the Federal Power Act, and Parts II and III were 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 jurisdiction of the Federal Power Commission will attach. The following work of an engineering nature was assigned and accomplished during the fiscal year: 11 plans approved by Chief of Engineers and Secretary of the Army in accordance with Sec. 4(e) of the Federal Water Power Act; 46 reports submitted on applications for preliminary permits or licenses or amendments thereto and reports on licensed projects subject to recapture (including environmental statements); and supervision of 7 licensed, projects for the Commission. Necessary expenses in excess of nominal amounts for transportation and subsistence of personnel engaged in investigations and cost of supervision under provisions of the Federal Water 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 TABLE OF CONTENTS Page 1.

MISCELLANEOUS ACTIVITIES In addition to the work of improving rivers and harbors, civil works of a miscellaneous character, as indicated below, have been committed to the Corps of Engineers. Work accomplished. The work of the fiscal year is summarized as follows: 3 danger zone regulations established or modified under provisions of Chapter XIX of the Army Act of Jul. 9, 1918, Sec. 7 of the River and Harbor Act of Aug. 8, 1917; 2 harbor lines established or modified under provisions of Sec. 11 of the River and Harbor Act of Mar. 3, 1899; 5 navigation regulations established or modified under provisions of Sec. 7, River and Harbor Act of Aug. 8, 1917; 9,500 permits issued for work on structures in navigable waters under provisions of Sec. 10, River and Harbor Act of Mar. 3, 1899; Sec. 404 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act and Sec. 103 of the Marine Protection Research Sanctuaries Act of 1972; 26 sunken vessels removed under provisions of Sec. 19 and 20, River and Harbor Act of 1899; and 263 sunken vessels investigated and either removed by owner or removal was not considered necessary. 48-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 Funds with which the above miscellaneous civil activities were prosecuted during the fiscal year totaled $12,505,259. See Table 48-A for breakdown. 2. INTERNATIONAL BOUNDARY WATER BOARDS In order to carry out U. S. obligations under international agreements, the Office of the Chief of Engineers and several Divisions and Districts of the Corps with jurisdiction over areas bordering Canada have representation on numerous international 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 (for 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 IJC, other international boards and committees are created by treaties or other informal arrangement in matters concerned with the water resources of joint interest, and the members report directly to the Government or establishing agency. A listing of these international boards and committees having Corps of Engineers membership during the fiscal year follows: 2A. INTERNATIONAL ST. CROIX RIVER BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was organized pursuant to conditions in the Orders of the IJC 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), 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 Oct. 2, 1934, the IJC 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, which 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. On Nov. 19, 1965, the IJC directed the Board, in addition to the duties previously assigned, to carry out the duties contained in the Order dated Oct. 15, 1965, for the construction of the storage dam at Vanceboro, Maine, and to report to the IJC annually. Members of the Board for fiscal year. COL J. H. Mason, Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, New England, Waltham, Mass., was the U. S. member and Mr. J. E. Peters, District Engineer, Water Survey of Canada, Department of the Environment, Halifax, Nova Scotia, was the Canadian member. Operations during fiscal year. Supervision was maintained and inspection was made by the Board members and their representatives to insure that the Orders of the IJC were followed. The Board performed the annual inspection of the St. Croix River Basin in the period Jun. 11-12, 1974, meeting with officers of the New Brunswick Electric Power Commission at Milltown, New Brunswick, and the Georgia- Pacific Corporation in Woodland, Maine. The Board submitted a Plan of Study in August 1972 for the Water Resources System Operation investigation. The IJC approved a revised Plan of Study, dated November 1972. The study considered re-regulation of the complex of storage reservoirs operated by Georgia-Pacific Corporation with particular attention given to moderating the allowable drawdown levels specified for Spednic Lake and its control structure, Vanceboro Dam. Draft studies have been completed by the Board and the final report is scheduled to be submitted in April 1975. The study of fluctuations in releases from the Vanceboro Dam indicated that during a 5-year period (1967-1971) there were numerous, random occasions when the change in mean daily discharge, for consecutive days, was greater than 25 percent. The Fisheries and Marine Service, Environment Canada, have indicated no problems with flow increases for fish habitat, but recommended decreases should be held to 25 percent or less. The Georgia-Pacific Corp., which operates the dam, has indicated that they would be likely to hold decreases in discharge to within 25 percent over a 24-hour period. 48-2 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS Five alternative plans of regulations for Spednic Lake were developed. For the purposes of comparison, these alternative plans vary from the extremes of operating the lake for power purposes only, to operating for the enhancement of fisheries at the expense of all other interests. The draft final report discussing the advantages and disadvantages of each plan will be presented informally to major concerned interests of the basin during Fiscal Year 1975. After the presentation to the public, the recommendations of the Board will be finalized. Tentatively, the best plan appears to be to maintain the level of Spednic Lake at or above elevation 378.5 feet (mean sea level) on a yearround basis for a 2-year trial period. It is proposed that after this monitoring period the operation order be reviewed and modified, if appropriate, and adopted on a permanent basis. 2B. 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 the city of Newport and towns of Derby, Conventry, and Barton, Vt., alleged they had been harmed by lake levels attributable to construction and operation of power plants on the Magog River. As a result, the Board composed of one engineer each from the United States 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 Board, dated May 14, 1934, was submitted to each Government. This report recommended that the lake levels 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. During flood conditions, the sluiceways of the dam shall be so operated as to reduce the floodwater elevations to the normal regulated level of 682.70 as rapidly as possible. The Board was reactivated by both Governments on Aug. 12, 1960, as a result of a complaint on Jul. 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. For Canada: Mr. W. K. Sharpe, Director, Water Pollution Programs Braneh, Environmental Protection Service, Department of the Environment, until Dec. 17, 1973, and Mr. R. L. Pentland, Chief, Operations Management Division, Water Planning and Management Branch, Inland Waters Directorate, thereafter. For the United States: COL H. W. Lombard, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, New York. 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, Vt. Datum of the gage is 673.00 feet above mean sea level, U. S. Geological Survey, 1929 adjustment, which is 0.30 foot higher than the comparable Geodetic Survey of Canada, 1923 adjustment. The upper limit of the recommended lake level was exceeded for almost the entire month of May and much of April and June. However, investigation of complaints received by the Corps of Engineers and the Vermont Department of Water Resources indicated that damages were confined to shoreline erosion and were not serious. There is a potential threat to three dwellings if the owners take no action to stabilize the shore. The Canadian member of the Board attended a meeting of the International Lake Memphremagog Ad Hoc Water Quality Group, an unofficial organization, and outlined the responsibilities of the Board. The Group indicated an interest in adjusting the recommended lake levels to improve water quality conditions. They were informed that any change in established lake levels would have to show clear and measurable benefits before it could be seriously considered. 2C. INTERNATIONAL LAKE CHAMPLAIN BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was organized pursuant to the provision of the Order of Approval, dated Jun. 10, 1937, of the IJC, approving construction and operation of certain remedial works in the Richelieu River at Fryers Island, Quebec. The Board submitted a report to the IJC dated May 4, 1938, soon after completion of the Fryers Island Dam. The Board is responsible for insuring compliance with provisions of the Order insofar as they relate to the regulation of the levels of Lake Champlain. Members of the Board for fiscal year. For Canada, Mr. J. Bathurst, Chief, Water Planning and Management Branch, Inland Waters Directorate, Department of the Environment, and for the United States, COL H. W. Lombard, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, New York. Operations during fiscal year. No construction or other operations have been performed during 48-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 the fiscal year. In the next fiscal year, it is planned to commence construction of a new lock just below St. Jean Rapids to provide navigational access from the Chambly Canal into the reach of the river upstream of Fryers Island Dam. Construction is scheduled for completion in 1975 and the lock will be ready for navigation in 1976. Information and complaints have been received from numerous communities along Lake Champlain of flood damages caused by high lake levels during fiscal years 1972, 1973, and 1974. Informal investigations indicated that high lake levels were presumably caused by heavy rainfall and the natural barriers in the channel of the Richelieu River for which the Board and IJC concluded that the Canadian government is in no way responsible. However, as a result of these conditions, the Governments of Canada and the United States agreed by letter dated Mar. 29, 1973, to request the IJC to investigate the problem. See "International Richelieu- Champlain Engineering Board," (2D) below. 2D. INTERNATIONAL RICHELIEUCHAMPLAIN ENGINEERING BOARD Constitution and duties. The Governments of Canada and the United States agreed by letter dated Mar. 29, 1973, pursuant to Article IX of the Boundary Waters Treaty of 1909, to request the IJC to investigate and report upon the feasibility and desirability of regulation of Lake Champlain with remedial works in the Richelieu River for the purpose of alleviating extreme water conditions in the Richelieu River and in Lake Champlain, and for other beneficial purposes. Pursuant to the IJC's decision Apr. 6, 1973, the Engineering Board was established on Apr. 24, 1973, to undertake, through appropriate agencies in Canada and the United States, the necessary investigations and studies and to advise the IJC on all matters which it must consider in making its reports to Governments under the Reference of Mar. 29, 1973. Members of the Board for fiscal year. The Canadian members were: Mr. H. B. Rosenberg, Department of the Environment, Chairman; Mr. E. Morin, Parks Canada, Department of Indian and Northern Affairs; Mr. B. Harvey, Department of Natural Resources; and Mr. B. Vallee, Province of Quebec, Planning and Development Office. The U. S. members were: COL H. W. Lombard, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, New York, Chairman; Mr. J. A. Finck, Jr., New York State Department of Environmental Conservation; Mr. F. E. Orr, Vermont Agency for Environmental Conservation, until Nov. 13, 1973, and Mr. W. Albert, same agency, thereafter; and Mr. R. F. Gregg, Chairman, New England River Basins Commission, until Oct. 3, 1973, and Mr. T. K. Klock, same Commission, thereafter. Operations during fiscal year. Local interests along the shores of Lake Champlain and the reach of the Richelieu River upstream of Fryers Island Dam desire relief from high water stages and accompanying damages from inundation and erosion in those areas. Concern was expressed over the amount of damages being sustained by agricultural, recreational, and private interests due to high lake levels, and the possibility of severe environmental damage in the vein of draining wetlands, exposing mud flats, and losses to existing fishery, wildlife, and waterfowl resources, which would accompany lowering normal lake levels a significant degree. Earlier, as a result of severe flooding, the Province of Quebec, assisted by the Canadian Government, examined the possibility of flood control measures. Their report, published in 1972, summarizes these preliminary studies and indicates that works could be built in the vicinity of St. Jean, Quebec, that could alleviate flood damages by lowering extreme flood levels. The works envisaged include a gated control structure and an excavated channel through the natural control section of St. Jean rapids for a distance of approximately 2 miles. This report was made available to the IJC, and later to the Board. In order to respond in a timely manner to the IJC's directive, the Engineering Board undertook several aspects of the investigation simultaneously. The Board in no way presupposed that human regulation of Lake Champlain is either necessary or desirable. Therefore, great emphasis was placed on the early resolution of the question of the desirability of such regulation. At the same time, the very possibility that such regulation may prove to be desirable meant that the study of engineering alternatives to achieve such regulation was also needed. Eight meetings were held by the Board during the fiscal year: at Burlington, Vt., on Aug. 23-24, 1973; at Hull, Quebec, on Oct. 2, 1973; at Montreal, Quebec, on Nov. 19-20, 1973; at New York, N. Y., on Dec. 20, 1973, and at Montreal on Jan. 15, Feb. 11, Feb. 25-26, and Jun. 20, 1974. At these meetings, reports of the Hydraulic Committee, the Economic Committee, and the Environmental Committee were reviewed and discussed, and a draft report was completed in March 1974. There were conflicting views between the advocates of flood control and those concerned about the environmental consequence 48-4 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS of such control. Studies will be continued during the next fiscal year. 2E. INTERNATIONAL ST. LAWRENCE RIVER BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was established Dec. 16, 1953, pursuant to the provisions of the Order of Approval dated Oct. 29, 1952, of the IJC for the construction of certain works for the development of power in the International Rapids Section of the St. Lawrence River. The IJC instructed the Board to perform the duties assigned to it by the Order of Approval. These responsibilities include 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 (PASNY) and the Hydro-Electric Power Commission of 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 IJC'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 shall duly observe any direction given them by the Board for the purpose of insuring such compliance. The Board shall report to the IJC at such times as the IJC may determine; (c) In addition to the reports to be made to the IJC in accordance with the terms of the Order of Approval, the Board was requested to report to the IJC semiannually and to keep the IJC 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 IJC in Toronto on Jan. 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 until May 1, 1974, when he was succeeded by Mr. R. H. Smith, Chief, Waterways Development, same Ministry; 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 Directorate, Department of the Environment. The U. S. members were: The Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, Chairman; Mr. D. Brown, Head, Section of Inspections, Federal Power Commission; Mr. R. D. Conner, Resident Manager, Power Authority of the State of New York; and Mr. F. F. Snyder, Hydraulic Engineer (Retired), U. S. Army, Office, Chief of Engineers, until May 21, 1974, when he resigned. MG E. Graves was the Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, until Dec. 14, 1973, and was succeeded by BG W. O. Bachus as Chairman. Operations during fiscal year. The Board met on Sep. 6, 1973, Oct. 2, 1973, Feb. 6, 1974, and Apr. 2-3, 1974. In addition to its normal functions, the Board undertook studies to consider the unprecedented high supplies of 1972-73 and determine possible improvements to the regulation procedures for Lake Ontario within the framework of existing criteria set forth by the IJC in its Orders of Approval. To provide the public with a better understanding of Board decisions relative to the regulation of Lake Ontario, the issuance of monthly public information bulletins was initiated by the Board in October 1973. During the past 2 years the conflict of interest regarding the operation of ice booms by the Power Entities in the International Rapids Section has been brought more sharply into focus. The Board established an ad hoc ice boom committee to review the question and delineate pertinent technical problems and jurisdictional issues. The ad hoc committee reported to the Board on Mar. 18, 1974. The Board's Operations Advisory Group, which represents navigation and power interests, provided weekly summaries of its activities to the Board and to the Board's Regulation Representatives. Under its discretionary authority, with continuing guidance from the IJC and with advice from the interests involved, the Board regulated during the year the Lake Ontario outflow to best meet the requirements set forth in the Orders of Approval dated Oct. 29, 1952, and Jul. 2, 1956, using Regulation Plan 1958-D. The Board, through its Working Committee, continually reviewed the 1973-74 high water situation on Lake Ontario and in the St. Lawrence River downstream in response to numerous complaints of flooding and shore damage. With the exception of Lake Superior, net basin supplies to the Great Lakes remained above normal during the year. Total supplies to Lake Ontario during 1973 averaged 304,000 cfs, 48-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 ?stablishing a new record maximum. correspondingly, outflows from Lake Ontario, averaging 308,000 cfs, also established a new record maximum. Near record total supplies to Lake Ontario in April and May caused the level to rise rapidly. The Lake Erie outflow for April set the maximum of record. The approved range of stage was exceeded during the period April through July 1973, when the monthly mean level of Lake Ontario exceeded elevation 246.77 IGLD (1955), the maximum specified under criterion (h). Again in 1974 the level of Lake Ontario exceeded 246.77 feet on Apr. 26 and peaked at an elevation of 247.55 from May 31 through Jun. 2. Throughout 1973 the Board continued to approve, whenever feasible, flows greater than those specified by Plan 1958-D, with consideration for all interests. As a result, Lake Ontario receded to a 1973 minimum elevation of 244.27 feet on Nov. 26, resulting in a total stage reduction of about 45 inches from July to December 1973. Throughout the current period of high lake levels the Board consistently sought to provide the maximum relief possible to both upstream and downstream shoreline interests. In late May and early June the Ottawa River, which joins the St. Lawrence River just upstream of Montreal and downstream of the Project, was in flood stage. During this period releases made from Lake Ontario were essentially equal to preproject outflows. The Power Entities continued their operation and maintenance of the gages required by the Board for recording river levels and flows. Peaking operations were conducted only during the period Dec. 17, 1973-Jan. 11, 1974, and Jan. 26-30, 1974. No ponding operations were conducted. Interim reports from the Power Entities, showing effects of the flow variations on water levels upstream and downstream from the Barnhart Island Powerhouses, were received regularly by the Board in accordance with the conditions of the authorization permitting the tests. The Board forwarded to the IJC copies of the interim reports covering the period Aug. 9, 1973-Feb. 6, 1974. The Power Entities, by letters dated Mar. 6, 1974, applied to the Board for authority to continue peaking operations on a test basis and to be given increased flexibility of operation during the nonnavigation season for the period Apr. 16, 1974-Apr. 15, 1975, under the same limitations as have governed these operations since Apr. 16, 1970. Since the Board has under consideration a request from the navigation interest to change the conditions under which peaking is carried out, the Board will provide its recommendation to the IJC on this matter. During the winter period, mid-December to early February, the operation of forming adequate ice cover in the forebay areas was most difficult due to moderate weather at first, a late January storm that broke the main Galop ice boom, and numerous running ice flows that passed over the booms. The official closing date for the 1973 navigation season in the Montreal-Lake Ontario section of the Seaway was Dec. 20, 1973. Because of ice conditions downstream from the International Rapids Section, the last commercial vessel cleared the locks on Dec. 22, 1973. Prior to the winter season the St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation reinstalled a "gate-boom" in the Power Entities' ice boom between Ogdensburg, N. Y., and Prescott, Ontario. The gate section is designed to be opened for ship transit and then reclosed to restore boom integrity. By virtue of its location, the gate boom can accommodate commercial vessels of maximum draft. This gate boom was installed and operationally tested with commercial traffic on Nov. 29-30. Since no ice existed in the area at that time, this only tested, to a limited extent, the mechanics of the system and the queuing of ships. Also the Power Entities attached the Canadian end of this same ice boom to a special anchor provided by the Ministry of Transport which permits the shore gate section to be opened and reclosed from the dock. The final week of navigation, as in the winter of 1972-73, was marked by severe ice problems in the Beauharnois Section of the St. Lawrence River, resulting in difficulty to navigation, reduction in power production, and damage to riparian interests. The experiences of the last 2 years have emphasized both the technical and jurisdictional problems that must be resolved regarding the conflict of interest between the regulation and navigations' use of the river during this critical period of the year. For the first time since regulation of Lake Ontario began, the St. Lawrence flow exceeded the capacity of the Saunders-Moses power plants, with the result that water was spilled over Long Sault Dam commencing Apr. 14, 1973, and continuing to September 1973. Long Sault Dam was operated for a total of 154 days during the period April-September 1973. The total volume of water passed through the dam was equivalent to 1.04 feet of storage on Lake Ontario. The largest amount of water spilled during this period was in July, at about 28,000 cfs. Again, in June 1974, higher outflows required spillage at Long Sault Dam which was continuing at the close of the fiscal year. 2F. INTERNATIONAL NIAGARA BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was 48-6 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS established Aug. 19, 1953, by the IJC to supervise the construction, maintenance, and operation of the Niagara remedial works, recommended by the IJC 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; and Mr. D. Brown, Head, Section of Inspections, Federal Power Commission. MG E. Graves was Division Engineer until Dec. 14, 1973, when he was succeeded by BG W. O. Bachus. The Canadian members were Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director General, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, Chairman, until Dec. 18, 1973, when he was succeeded by Mr. D. M. Foulds, Regional Head, Water Planning and Management, Department of the Environment, and Mr. C. K. Hurst, Chief Engineer, Department of Public Works. Operations during fiscal year. The St. Lawrence Seaway Authority officially opened the new 8-mile section of the Welland Canal to bypass Welland, Ontario, on Jul. 14, 1973. In addition to providing improvements to navigation, this new bypass replaces a section which had long been an obstacle to rail and street traffic within the city. As reported last year, the flow diversions through the Welland Canal to the DeCew Falls plant were increased to compensate for the time that the canal was closed to facilitate construction. On Oct. 27, 1973, the flow through the Welland Canal to the DeCew Falls plant was returned to normal. The Power Entities have complied with the Board's directive of Feb. 27, 1973, in the operation of the pool. The accumulated deviation for March 1973 through February 1974, the first full year of pool operation under this directive, was only 2.01 foot-months above the long-term mean level in spite of continuing record high flows. Tolerances were suspended on Oct. 7 due to emergency rescue operations after a boating accident which necessitated a rescue attempt and a deliberate violation of flow requirements of the treaty of 1950. While this event was taking place the operator at the control structure lowered the water level in the rescue area by opening the inshore gates and reducing the flow around the end of control structure allowing for a successful rescue. Tolerances were also suspended on Oct. 13, Nov. 1, Dec. 5, 6, and 28, 1973, Jan. 7, 27, and 31, 1974, and Feb. 23, 1974, due to river flows in excess of 270,000 cfs for a period of 4 or more consecutive hours, and on Jan. 14 and 15, 1974, and on Feb. 24, 1974, due to ice conditions. The Board, in response to an April 1974 request from the International Great Lakes Levels Board, requested its Working Committee to outline a plan of study which would endeavor to answer the following questions: (1) can the outflow from Lake Erie be increased or decreased by manipulating the levels of the Chippawa Grass Island Pool, and (2) if so, can the technique be used as a means to partially regulate the outflows of Lake Erie? The Board's Working Committee proposed a field measurement program in which the Lake Erie outflow is to be measured under a near-constant Lake Erie level and different levels of the Grass Island Pool during two periods, the first of which took place during May 6-17, 1974. The tests will provide a continuous field measurement of Lake Erie outflows using the leading edge flowmeter (LEF) which will be fully supported by discharge measurements using standard current meters to calibrate the LEF. The data collected during the field test program May 6-17 are being analyzed to determine the effects of fluctuation of Grass Island Pool levels on the levels of the Upper Niagara River. A report on this subject is being prepared. During most of the nontourist hours in the reporting period, there were flows over the falls in excess of treaty requirements. These excess flows were caused by high river discharges, limited diversion capability of the power plants, and the requirement to meet the Board's tolerance on pool levels. Construction was completed in September 1973 of the aerial metering cableway that provides a means for direct measurement of the total flow past the Ashland Avenue gage and that will serve as a means to determine the reliability of the existing gage rating curve. Discharge measurements were taken afterwards. Measurements in September and October 1973 at the new cableway lay to the left of the curve when plotted on the gage rating curve. Subsequent measurements did not show the same discrepancy, raising the possibility of flow retardation effects by weeds at the gage. A series of measurements is scheduled for August 1974 and the coming winter to determine if there is any backwater effect from weeds in the summer and ice in the winter at the Ashland Avenue gage. All gaging stations were in operation during the reporting period with the exception of the American Falls gage, which was out of operation on 30 and 31 Oct. The leading edge flowmeter at Fort Erie, Ontario, was temporarily out of operation from Jul. 4 to Oct. 23, 1973, due to mechanical malfunction. Additional discharge measurements at the site will be made this year to calibrate this meter for the purpose of measuring the discharge from Lake Erie. The Corps of Engineers plans a replacement gage installation in the American Falls Channel approximately 48-7 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 400 feet upstream of the present location. The Board has requested that the Powei Entities accept the site and provide the construction funds. Construction is expected in 1974. Above normal precipitation in recent years has produced record high monthly mean Lake Erie levels and Niagara River flows making more water available for power production. Record high monthly mean levels were set from July through October 1973, and near record levels occurred in the last 5 months of this period. The Toronto Power Generating Plant ceased operations on Feb. 11, 1974, after 68 years of service. It had a capability of 15,300 cfs, through 11 units with a total capacity of 91,800 kilowatts under an operating head of 137 feet. Rock squeeze in the wheel pit and general deterioration over the years have made it uneconomical to continue operation. Final disposition of this installation is presently under consideration. Installation of the Lake Erie-Niagara River Ice Boom began on Dec. 19, 1973, and was completed on Jan. 9, 1974. Due to moderate weather at first, storms, and numerous occasions where ice passed over the boom, the boom was not fully effective until late February, when nearly 100 percent ice cover from the boom west to Port Maitland occurred with perhaps 60 percent ice cover west to Long Point. Along the U. S. side sizeable open leads existed as far east as Dunkirk. Coverage immediately upstream of the boom was 12 to 24 inches thick and stationary ice overhung twothirds of the boom. Ice thickness west of Windmill Point decreased substantially to perhaps 2 inches or less west of Long Point. At the peak about 1,000 square miles of ice covered Lake Erie. The Board recommended that the ice boom be opened commencing 25 Mar., with complete removal as soon thereafter as possible. Removal of the ice boom commenced on Mar. 26 and was completed by Apr. 1, 1974. By Apr. 5, except for remnants along the shore, the lake was ice free. This massive run of ice passed through the Niagara River safely. In February, the Board forwarded to the IJC a report titled "Lake Erie-Niagara River Ice Boom Study." The objectives of the ice boom study were: a. To determine to what extent, if any, the ice boom affects the thickness or extent of the ice field or changes the rate of dissipation of ice in Lake Erie and, hence, has any effect on navigation, recreation, weather, or other environmental consideration. b. To determine criteria which could be used annually to establish a date for removal of the boom, which would minimize the impact of ice flows on intakes for power plants and shore property along the entire Niagara River without appreciable adverse effects on other interests. The report notes the inadequacy of existing field data and that the study group has not been able to determine quantitatively for any specific season the extent, if any, to which the ice boom affects the ice field or changes the rate of dissipation of the ice in Lake Erie. Likewise, it has not been possible to quantify any effect the boom may have had during the years examined on the nearshore air quality of eastern Lake Erie. The report offers the following tentative criteria which it is planning to use for judging when the ice dissipation period is under way and to recommend removal to the IJC: (i) When the post-Mar. 1, 5-day average air temperature exceeds 35�F; (ii) When weather forecasts indicate that mean daily air temperatures will stay above 35�F; and (iii) When inspection of the ice cover shows that the dissipation period has begun. The report also recommends the collection of additional climatic, ice, and hydrologic data to provide adequate background for any further studies and to further develop and refine the simplified ice dissipation simulation model developed by the study group. As reported last year, the Board's Working Committee is engaged in a study to determine the effect of the fill placed by Niagara Hardware and Lumber Limited and Agrette Limited along the Canadian shore in Fort Erie on the water levels in the Niagara River and Lake Erie. Further field data are being collected for use in this study. 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 Feb. 27, 1950. By its provisions, limitations on the diversions of Niagara River water for power in accordance with article V of the treaty of 1909 are terminated and temporary international agreements for the allocating 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 Oct. 10, 1950. 48-8 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS 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 cfs authorized October 1940 for the Long Lac-Ogoki diversion by Canada, are to be allocated equally between both countries. Minimum flows over the falls shall not be less than 100,000 cfs between 8 am and 10 pm EST from Apr. 1 to Sep. 15, and 8 am to 8 pm from Sep. 16 to Oct. 31. At all other times the flow over the falls shall not be less than 50,000 cfs. 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. In 1973, the two Governments agreed to use Eastern Daylight Saving Time (EDST) when officially in effect in either country at Niagara Falls, rather than Eastern Standard Time (EST) as stipulated in the 1950 treaty. Members of the Committee for fiscal year. The Canadian representative was Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director General, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, until Jan. 1, 1974, and Mr. D. M. Foulds, Director, Ontario Region, Water Planning and Management Branch, same Department, and the U. S. representative, was the Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central. MG E. Graves was Division Engineer until Dec. 14, 1973, and was succeeded by BG W. O. Bachus. Operations during the fiscal year. The Committee received daily reports of operation of the hydroelectric 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. During the year there was one violation which occurred on Oct. 7, 1973. This violation was a consequence of the deliberate action taken by the River Control Superintendent in attempting to reduce the risk to the lives of 10 people stranded in the Niagara River below the International Control Structure and to assist in subsequent rescue attempts. Without this emergency action, this incident could very well have been a tragedy. A complete explanation of the conditions of this incident is included with the summary for the month of October. Biweekly 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 dewatering of the falls in November 1969. This has been attributed to modifications made at the gage intake during the dewatering period. Efforts to establish a reliable stage-discharge relationship reflecting current conditions have not been successful. The International Niagara Board of Control has investigated the gage and the data it produces and determined that the gage inlet pipe is located in an area of turbulent streamflow. A decision has been made to relocate the American Falls gage upstream of the existing location. Until a rating is established for the new gage location, the monthly report, columns 12 and 13-Horseshoe and American Falls flows, are labeled "Division of Flow Subject to Re-Rating of the American Falls Gage." As reported in the 1973 Report, the Welland Canal flow was curtailed from mid-December 1972 to late February 1973 to allow the St. Lawrence Seaway Authority to complete final construction on the new canal bypass around the city of Welland. During this period the flow averaged less than 300 cfs compared with normal winter flow of about 6,400 cfs. Such action caused the level of Lake Erie to be temporarily 1 inch higher. The Welland Canal discharged greater than normal flows from April to October 1973, to compensate for the earlier reduced flow. On Oct. 27, 1973, the flow through the Welland Canal to the DeCew Falls Plant was returned to normal. 2H. AMERICAN FALLS INTERNATIONAL BOARD Constitution and duties. In a reference dated Mar. 31, 1967, the Governments of the United States and Canada, pursuant to article IV of the Boundary Waters Treaty of 1909, requested the IJC to investigate and report upon measures necessary to preserve and enhance the beauty of the American Falls at Niagara. The Board was established Jul. 24, 1967, by the IJC 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 48-9 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, Chairman, and Mr. G. Eckbo, Department of Landscape Architecture, University of California, Berkeley. MG E. Graves was North Central Division Engineer until Dec. 14, 1973, and BG W. O. Bachus thereafter.. Canadian members were Mr. N. H. James, Director, Water Planning and Management Branch, Department of the Environment, Chairman, and Mr. H. S. M. Carver, Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation, Ottawa (Retired). Operations during fiscal year. The Corps of Engineers received study funds of $248,000 for the fiscal year. Departments of the Canadian Government funded operations of their personnel who are involved in Board and its Committee activities. The expenses of the representative of the two Park Commissions have been borne by the respective Park Commission. The core borings for installation of instruments and for geologic analysis were completed. The installation of the major components of the safety warning system was completed in December 1973. This included the instrumenting of five boreholes for monitoring rock movement. In an endeavor to obtain greater public expression of reaction to its proposals, the Board undertook a comprehensive program of public involvement, commencing in the summer of 1973, and prepared a public information brochure with a pictorial and descriptive presentation of the aesthetic alternatives: removing talus, raising the Maid-of-the-Mist Pool, increasing the flow over the American Falls, or allowing the falls to remain as they are now. The implementation of the proposals contained in the Board's Interim Report would involve very substantial costs; therefore, the Board felt it should obtain informed expressions of opinion on the desirability of these proposals. In each country, 100,000 brochures were distributed. In addition, 20,000 brochures in French were distributed in Canada. These brochures were passed out in Canada by the Niagara Parks Commission, Ontario Hydro, Ontario Department of Tourism, and the Niagara Resort and Tourist Association. In the United States, approximately 70,000 copies were distributed to tourists through the Niagara Frontier State Park and Recreation Commission, local restaurants, tourist agencies, hotels, and motels. The balance were distributed nationally through the Corps of Engineers Public Affairs Offices to the 50 States. Public response to the brochure "The American Falls-Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow" was also tabulated. By letter dated Feb. 1, 1974, the Board advised the IJC that the final report would be submitted to the IJC in June 1974. With IJC approval, a news release was made on Feb. 12, 1974, announcing the submission date. The Board's final report to the IJC, Preservation and Enhancement of the American Falls at Niagara, dated June 1974, was transmitted by letter dated Jun. 30, 1974. The Board and its Working Committee are now completing the final drafts of seven appendices which furnish the technical support to the Board's report. 21. INTERNATIONAL GREAT LAKES LEVELS BOARD Constitution and duties. The Governments of Canada and the United States, by reference dated Oct. 7, 1964, requested the IJC 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 Dec. 2, 1964, the IJC established the Board to undertake the necessary investigations and studies and to advise the IJC 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 Jan. 6, 1965, a Working Committee was selected. The Working Committee met on Jul. 7, 1965, and set up four subcommittees to investigate and report on 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. U. S. members of the 'Board were the Division Engineer, U. S. Army, North Central Division, Chairman; (MG E. Graves, was Division Engineer and U. S. Board Chairman until Feb. 26, 1974, and BG W. O. Bachus thereafter); Mr. M. Abelson, Special Assistant to the Secretary, Department of the Interior; and Mr. B. T. Jose, formerly Assistant Administrator (retired), St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation, Department of Transportation. Canadian members of the Board were Mr. C. K. Hurst, Chief Engineer, Department of Public Works, Chairman; Mr. R. H. Smith, Director, Marine Hydraulics Branch, Ministry of Transport; and Mr. N. H. James, Water Planning and Management Branch, Department of the Environment. The Working Committee consists of five members representing the United States and three members representing Canada. U. S. members of the Working Committee were Dr. L. H. Blakey, Chief, Engineering Division, U. S. 48-10 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS Army Engineer Division, North Central, Chairman; Mr. M. Abelson; Mr. F. A. Blust, Lake Survey Center, NOA.A, Department of Commerce; Mr. J. H. Spellman, Regional Engineer, New York Regional Office, Federal Power Commission; and Mr. J. D. Officer, St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation, Department of Transportation until July 1973 and Mr. D. N. Robb, same agency, thereafter. Canadian members of the Working Committee were Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director General, Inland Waters Directorate, Department of the Environment, Chairman; Mr. D. W. Quinlan, Program Management Evaluation, 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. The activities of the Board, it's Working Committee, and Subcommittees during the year focused on completion of the main report with seven appendices. The Board finalized and signed on Dec. 7, 1973, its final report to the IJC on the assignment given to it under the reference of Oct. 7, 1964. A limited number of copies were printed and forwarded to the IJC on Dec. 14, 1973. Copies of the final report were also furnished at that time to members of the International Lake Superior Board of Control, International Niagara Board of Control, and the International St. Lawrence River Board of Control. The Board stated that the final report would be reproduced in quantity once the IJC indicated its satisfaction. On Dec. 27, 1973, the IJC informed the Board to proceed with the reproduction of 4,000 copies of the final report and provide the additional copies at the earliest date possible. The copies were printed and shipped to each Section of the IJC by Feb. 5, 1974. The U. S. Section of the Board assisted the U. S. Section of the IJC in preparing distribution lists and in mailing copies of the final report in the United States upon its release to the public on Feb. 26, 1974, in Ottawa and Washington. A summary report that presented a brief explanation of the Board's report was made available to the IJC in late June 1974. The Board and its Working Committee completed its review of drafts of all seven appendices to the main report in June 1974. Final copies of the appendices were then submitted for printing. The Board held six meetings during the fiscal year, mainly to review drafts of the main report and appendices. 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 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 technical studies through collaboration of the appropriate agencies of the United States and Canada. Members of the Committee for fiscal year. The U. S. members were Mr. D. J. Leonard, Chief, Water Control Center, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, Chairman; Mr. B. G. DeCooke, Assistant Chief, Engineering Division, U. S. Army Engineer District, Detroit; and Mr. F. A. Blust, Chief, Marine Mapping Division, U. S. Lake Survey Center, National Ocean Survey, NOAA, Department of Commerce. Members for Canada were Mr. D. F. Witherspoon, Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Study Office, Department of the Environment, Chairman; and Mr. R. H. Smith, Director, Marine Hydraulics Branch, Ministry of Transport. Operations during fiscal year. The River Flow Subcommittee continued its study of coordinated St. Clair River and Detroit River flows. A program to recalibrate the Lake Superior control works was carried out in June 1974 in coordination with the International Lake Superior Board of Control. The Vertical Control and Lake Level Subcommittee continued preparation of gage histories for Lakes Michigan-Huron and St. Clair and Detroit Rivers. Re-evaluation of International Great Lakes Datum (IGLD 1955) has shown no requirement to make a change at this time. It was indicated that updating be reconsidered in 1980. Vertical (crustal and other) movement assessments are being determined and 48-11 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 coordinated. The Subcommittee has prepared an outline for a report on vertical movement in the Great Lakes area. The Physical Data Subcommittee is continuing work on the preparation of the Great Lakes Physical Data Report. 2K. INTERNATIONAL GREAT LAKES STUDY GROUP Constitution and duties. The 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 International 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 for the Study Group consists of up to six members from each country. During the year the U. S. Chairman was Mr. L. T. Crook, Planning Director, Great Lakes Basin Commission. Members were Mr. D. J. Leonard, Chief, 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. R. 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, Institute for Environmental Studies, University of Toronto; Mr. T. L. Richards, Atmospheric Environment Service, Department of the Environment; 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 Ministry of the Environment. Operations during the fiscal 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 together and to coordinate their activities. During the year the Study Group held no formal meetings. 2L. INTERNATIONAL LAKE SUPERIOR BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board, established in pursuance of Orders issued by the IJC May 26 and 27, 1974, 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 General, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, was the member for Canada, until Feb. 5, 1974, and Mr. D. M. Foulds, Director, Ontario Region, Inland Waters Directorate, same Department, thereafter. The Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, was the U. S. member. MG E. Graves was Division Engineer until Dec. 14, 1973, and BG W. 0. Bachus was Division Engineer thereafter. Operations during fiscal year. During the year the board kept in touch 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 was directed by IJC by letter, dated Jun. 29, 1973, to regulate Lake Superior in such a way so as to provide all possible relief from critical high water levels on the downstream lakes without causing undue detriment to Lake Superior interests. For this purpose, the Board was requested to use as a guide, the Plan SO-901 regulation objective as described in the "Interim Report on Lakes Superior and Ontario Regulation to the International Joint Commission 48-12 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS by the International Great Lakes Levels Board," dated Mar. 15, 1973. As Lake Superior continued its natural seasonal rise through the summer of 1973, the outflow was increased to 80,000 cfs commencing Jul. 1 and to 120,000 cfs (all 16 gates open) on Aug. 17. Both increases were made to ensure that Lake Superior did not rise above the maximum level of 602.0 feet prescribed in the IJC's 1914 Orders. The lake reached a seasonal high level of about 601.9 feet near the end of August, and its monthly mean level for August was 601.8 feet. In September, the level began its seasonal decline. The maximum 1973 seasonal level on Lakes Michigan-Huron was about 581.0, which prevailed through most of July and August. This, combined with high Lake Superior outflows, resulted in levels close to the specified maximum of 582.9 feet in the lower St. Marys River. Using Regulation Plan SO-901 as a guide, and on the basis of the existing levels on Lakes Superior and Michigan-Huron near the end of September, the Board reduced the Lake Superior outflow to 90,000 cfs commencing Oct. 1, 1973. This flow was continued, with the exception during the time of the St. Marys Rapids field survey, until Dec. 21, when the initial winter outflow for the 1973-74 winter season was commenced at 79,000 cfs. The 3-gate-open setting remained in effect throughout the winter and early spring when on May 2, 1974, the setting was reduced to 2 gates open as a result of the favorable conditions on Lake Superior as compared with those on downstream lakes. The 2-gate-open setting in May resulted in a flow of 73,000 cfs. Because of the flow measurements obtained through the Compensating Works during a portion of June, the June outflow averaged 86,000 cfs. By letters dated Jun. 29 and Jul 7, 1973, the IJC requested the Board to undertake a feasibility study of remedial works or other measures to ensure that the crucial areas of the St. Marys Rapids are not dried up under low flow releases. A study team of Federal, provincial, and State agency representatives from both countries was appointed to carry out the 1-year study. To provide an adequate basis for designing remedial measures in the rapids, it was necessary to obtain topographical mapping of the rapids area. From Nov. 3 to 12, 1973, gate changes were made to dewater as much as possible the rapids area during the daylight hours. However, standing pools in the channel bottom and leakage through the control gates and dikes prevented total dewatering of the rapids area. The temporary closure to facilitate the field survey in the St. Marys Rapids was more than fully compensated for by delaying the winter setting from Dec. 1 to Dec. 20, 1973. The preparation of the resulting topographic map was completed along with the design work and related studies for possible remedial measures. The Board plans to submit its special report to the IJC in September 1974. During June 1974, the Board completed its hydraulic rating measurement check of the gate settings of the Compensating Works. Gate changes and resulting conditions in the Compensating Works at the head of the St. Marys Rapids were measured from 1 gate open to 10 gates open. As a result of hydraulic rating test of the gates, the outflow from Lake Superior for June averaged about 86,000 cfs. Consistent with the IJC directive to provide relief downstream without exceeding the upper level of 602.0, the Board directed a return to a 2-gate open setting for July 1974. The Board carried out its annual inspection of the Compensating Works on Sep. 25, 1973. By letter dated Dec. 14, 1973, the Board Member for Canada requested the Great Lakes Power Corporation to submit proposals for carrying out additional remedial work. In order to determine the rate of erosion of the bedrock in the vicinity of Pier 8, the Board suggested that dye tests should be conducted at 3-year intervals, together with underwater photography at the upstream and downstream sides for comparison with existing photography now available. No repair work was accomplished on the U. S. portion of the structure during the year. A safety improvement was made by constructing a new stairway for access to the structure at the U. S. end. Some minor maintenance work is required on the submerged portions of Piers 14, 15, and 16 and could be done at some future date when gate settings will permit. During FY 1974, diversion of water from the Albany River watershed into Lake Superior basin continued. However, in the exercise of its normal operating discretion with regard to the regulation of Lake Nipigon outflows, Ontario Hydro has essentially contained the Ogoki water in Lake Nipigon since Dec. 1, 1972. In late May 1973, record high water supplies in the Lake Nipigon basin made it necessary to depart from the regulation schedule for controlling the Lake Nipigon and Ogoki waters. Lake Nipigon outflow was increased from about 9,800 cfs to 14,000 cfs on May 23 and to 20,000 cfs on May 26, and the diversion of Ogoki waters to Lake Nipigon was discontinued. This arrangement was continued throughout the remainder of the reporting period. The Board continued its surveillance of water level and ice conditions in the lower St. Marys River during the winter of 1973-74 to ensure that appropriate remedial action could be taken in the event of severe ice jamming in the river. This 48-13 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 surveillance has included the maintenance of standby facilities for providing steam heat which could be used readily to assist in de-icing the gates of the control structure in the event of an emergency. The emergency action directed by the IJC on Jan. 26, 1973, reduced power generation at the Edison Sault Electric Company, thereby requiring the company to purchase power from another source during the period of flow reduction, Feb. 1-Jun. 30, 1973. Water usage at the Edison Sault Plant averaged about 15,000 cfs for the 5-month period, as compared with 29,000 cfs for the remainder of 1973. The Edison Sault Electric Company has filed a suit in the amount of $296,954 against the U. S. Government because of the alleged denied flow. A number of letters written on behalf of U. S. property owners were received by the U. S. Member of the Board concerning high water conditions on Lake Superior and as the result of the emergency action by the IJC to reduce the outflow. Appropriate replies were communicated in each case. Further, news releases were prepared and distributed when any action was taken regarding gate changes for the Lake Superior Compensating Works. 2M. INTERNATIONAL PRAIRIE PORTAGE BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board of Control was formed by the IJC for the purpose of furnishing it with technical advice regarding suitability of a dam structure at Prairie Portage, Lake County, Minnesota. After approval of plans by the Department of the Army and the IJC, the Board was retained to advise the IJC 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 Jun. 12, 1968, after a period of heavy rains, the cofferdam was washed out, resulting in lowering the lake levels of Birch, Sucker, Moose, Nevwfound, and Ensign Lakes. This caused considerable difficulty for boating, as shallow water resulted at the outlet of the lakes. By Nov. 10, 1968, the U. S. Forest Service completed reconstruction of the Prairie Portage cofferdam which had been functioning satisfactorily as the control dam for the lakes. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director General, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, represented Canada. COL R. E. Cox, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul, represented the United States. Operations during the fiscal year. The Forest Service did not receive funds to construct the permanent Prairie Portage Dam. At the urging of the IJC, the Forest Service has placed top priority on obtaining Congressional funding of the permanent dam project. In view of this, the Forest Service undertook an Environmental Analysis in August 1973 and later, a full Environmental Impact Statement. Their draft Environmental Impact Statement was sent to their Washington headquarters on 1 Jun. for review. It was not made available for out-ofagency review. 2N. INTERNATIONAL RAINY LAKE BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The convention between the United States and Canada, ratified by U. S. Senate Aug. 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 Jun. 8, 1939, the IJC 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 the Board of Control. The Order provides for certain levels during the various seasons of the year as well as control of outflows, with a view to securing most advantageous use of water in total to the various interests. A Supplementary Order dated Oct. 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 IJC on Oct. 2, 1962, and Apr. 5, 1967, respectively. On Jul. 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 IJC. 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. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director General, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, represented Canada, and COL R. E. Cox, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul, represented the United States. Operations during fiscal year. Both Rainy and Namakan began the year within their respective rule curves but with below normal discharges- 4,000 and 5,000 cfs, respectively. Conditions improved throughout the remainder of 1973 with 48-14 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS increased flows and, except for late October when Namakan rose slightly above the maximum rule curve, both lake levels remained within the rule curves through December. On Dec. 31, Rainy Lake outflow was 11,500 cfs and the Namakan outflow was 6,500 cfs. Because of good base flow conditions, Namakan Lake levels were allowed to drop slightly (0.1 foot) below the minimum rule curve during late January. Rainy Lake outflow was maintained at 11,000 cfs until Mar. 24 when it was reduced to 7,500 cfs as the lake level neared the minimum rule curve. During the first three months of 1974, Namakan outflows dropped naturally from 6,500 to 3,500 cfs. Rainy Lake reached a minimum level of 1104.6 on Apr. 11 and Namakan reached a level of 1109.2 on Apr. 13. Above normal rains from mid-May to mid-June caused both Rainy and Namakan Lakes to rise faster than expected. On May 11, both lakes rose above their respective maximum rule curves and, even with the dams wide open from that date on, Rainy crested at 1109.6 feet on Jun. 20 (1 foot above flood level and 1.5 feet above the maximum rule curve) and Namakan crested at 1118.8 feet (0.3 foot below flood level but 0.2 foot above the maximum rule curve). Maximum outflows from Rainy and Namakan Lakes were 35,000 and 18,800 cfs, respectively. By the end of June, Rainy Lake levels had subsided to 1109.2 feet with an outflow of 33,500 cfs and Namakan Lake levels had returned to within the rule curves (1118.4 feet). The outflow had been reduced to 16,800 cfs. On Apr. 16, 1974, the Board of Control met in Fort Frances, Ontario, with local residents to discuss the operation of the lake levels. The meeting was very well attended, primarily by residents of Crane and Kabetogama Lakes voicing their objections to the low water levels on the Namakan Chain of Lakes during the period May 15 to Jun. 1. This year's levels were more satisfactory throughout the Namakan Chain of Lakes, but were nearly excessive by mid-June as a result of the heavy spring rains. 20. INTERNATIONAL LAKE OF THE WOODS CONTROL BOARD Constitution and duties. The convention between the United States and Great Britain proclaimed Jul. 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 Woods Control Board to regulate and control outflow of waters of that 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. The dam which regulates the lake was constructed by Canadian interests in 1887 primarily to improve navigation. In 1898 it was replaced by the present structure to permit regulation of both waterpower and navigation and is presently owned by the Ontario-Minnesota Pulp and Paper Company, Limited. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director General, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, represented Canada and COL R. E. Cox District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul, represented the United States. 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 Jul. 1, 1973, Lake of the Woods was at the fairly low level of 1058.0 and steady. Discharge was reduced from 6,000 cfs to 4,500 cfs on Jul. 9, the lowest release from Lake of the Woods since the drought years of the 1930's. Above normal rains from mid-August to mid- October caused Lake of the Woods to crest at 1060.3 on Nov. 1, 1973, even though the outflow had been increased to 20,000 cfs. Winter releases were maintained at approximately 20,000 cfs, and Lake of the Woods was drawn down to 1058.1 by Apr. 11, 1974, just prior to the spring snowmelt runoff. The basin snow cover was approximately normal and with normal spring precipitation, Lake of the Woods was expected to crest at 1060.5 on Jul. 1, which is nearly ideal for all interests. During the period from mid-May to mid-June, approximately twice the normal amount of rain fell over the basin and even with the Norman Dam nearly wide open since May 20, Lake of the Woods crested at elevation 1061.5 on Jun. 25. The lake was above the upper treaty limit of 1061.25 from Jun 10 to 29. On Jun. 30, Lake of the Woods was at elevation 1061.23 with a full discharge capacity of 46,900 cfs, still being maintained. On Apr. 16 and 17, 1974, the Control Board met with local interests in Warroad and Kenora, respectively, to discuss levels on Lake of the Woods. These meetings are a cooperative effort of both Board members to arrive at the best solutions for the operating problems. Attendance at both meetings was substantially less than at similar meetings during the previous 2 years, primarily because of the more satisfactory outlook for summer water levels. 48-15 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 2P. INTERNATIONAL PEMBINA RIVER ENGINEERING BOARD Constitution and duties.

In accordance with the Aug. 20, 1969, instructions from the IJC, the Board has been considering the survey report for flood control prepared by the Corps of Engineers on the Souris River, North Dakota. The Board has been requested to report to the IJC 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 period 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 U. S. studies and working with Canadian members in preparation of the required reports. The study is under way, but completion has been delayed pending approval of the damsite location, the amount of storage to be provided, and the method of operation. Completion of the Board's report is dependent 48-16 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS upon resolution of several problems relating to the Corps authorized project and is not expected until Fiscal Year 1976. 2R. INTERNATIONAL ROSEAU RIVER ENGINEERING BOARD Constitution and duties. The Board was reestablished by the IJC on Aug. 26, 1971, to undertake, through appropriate agencies in Canada and the United States, the necessary investigations and studies and to advise the IJC 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 Dec. 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 works proposed by Canada have any effect on the U. S. 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 IJC's Interim Report of Jun. 8, 1929, and the Dec. 5, 1949, report with respect to the diversion of Pine Creek, a tributary of the Roseau River. Members of the Board for fiscal year. The Board consists of four members. For Canada: Mr. W. B. Thomson, Director, PFRA, Department of Regional Economic Expansion, Regina, Saskatchewan, Chairman; and Mr. T. E. Weber, Director General, Water Resources Branch, Manitoba Department of Mines, Resources and Environmental Management, Winnipeg, Manitoba. For the United States: the District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul, Minn., Chairman; and Mr. E. R. Gere, Director, Division of Waters, Soils and Minerals, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, St. Paul, Minn. COL R. E. Cox was the St. Paul District Engineer during the year. The Board formed a Task Force on Oct. 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; Dr. F. Quinn, Water Planning and Management 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, Assistant Chief, Engineering Division, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul. Operations during fiscal year. The Board met on Sep. 7, 1973, Oct. 3, 1973, Jan. 8, 1974, and Mar. 12, 1974. The Board appeared before the IJC on Oct. 3, 1973, and Apr. 2, 1974. The Task Force met on Aug. 29, 1973, Nov. 23, 1973, Feb. 19, 1974, May 9, 1974, and Jun. 13, 1974. All of the individual reports of the cooperating agencies in Canada and the United States have been received by the Task Force and are being evaluated. These include reports to update the hydraulic and hydrologic studies for the flood control works in Minnesota and mitigating works in Canada; soil surveys in Manitoba; inventory and analysis of surface water data, groundwater data, and water quality data; inventories of forestry, wildlife, and fishery; recreation assessments in Manitoba; socioeconomic data for Manitoba and Minnesota; attitude and perception surveys in Manitoba; reports on the public meetings held in Manitoba; an environmental assessment report on the Roseau River in Minnesota; single purpose drainage, flood control and recreation development reports for Manitoba; and reports on agriculture and wildlife potentials in Manitoba. These reports plus previously completed reports for the Roseau River in Minnesota will form the basis for the Engineering Board's final report including appendices to the IJC. Report and appendix outlines are being developed. Development of single-purpose and coordinated plans for control and use of waters in the Roseau River in Manitoba and Minnesota are under way but, because of manpower limitations, are falling behind original completion schedules. Thus, completion of the Board's final report to the IJC has been rescheduled from Mar. 31, 1975, to Sep. 30, 1975. On Aug. 7, 1973, the U. S. Department of State, upon urging by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, sent a note to the Canadian Embassy in Washington requesting Canadian consideration of the proposed flood control project on the Roseau River in Minnesota and associated mitigating works downstream in Canada. The note referred to the interim report of the International Roseau River Engineering Board regarding costs of mitigating works in Canada and requested that consultation be undertaken as soon as possible with a view to early acceptance of the projects and the completion of necessary arrangements for the transfer of U. S. funds for the mitigating works in Manitoba. 2S. INTERNATIONAL KOOTENAY LAKE BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was established Nov. 11, 1938, to secure compliance with the provisions of the Orders of Approval of the IJC dated Nov. 11, 1938, and Aug. 5, 1949, 48-17 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U. S. ARMY 1974 relating to the construction and operation of control works by the Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company, of Canada, Ltd. (Cominco), 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. Later the Board was assigned supervision of the operation of the Duck Lake outlet control works by the Creston Valley Wildlife Management Authority, in accordance with the Orders of the IJC dated Oct. 12, 1950, Apr. 3, 1956, and Mar. 31, 1970. Members of the Board for fiscal year. For Canada: Mr. G. Tofte, District Engineer, Water Survey of Canada, Department of the Environment, Vancouver, British Columbia, Chairman, and Mr. A. F. Paget, Consulting Engineer, Victoria, British Columbia, until Jun. 28, 1973, and Mr. H. M. Hunt, Chief of Power and Major Licenses, Water Resources Service, Department of Lands, Forests, and Water Resources; Victoria, after Dec. 18, 1973. For the United States: COL W. O. Bachus until Nov. 22, 1973, and COL R. J. Eineigl, thereafter, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, Seattle, Chairman, and Mr. H. K. Hall, District Chief, Water Resources Division, U. S. Geological Survey, Boise, Idaho. Operations during fiscal year. No meetings of the Board were held during the fiscal year; however, Board members visited the area individually. An annual report was submitted to the IJC. The Board reported that during the year Cominco operated the Kootenay Lake control works at Corra Linn Dam within the prescribed limits of the Order of the IJC dated Nov. 11, 1938. Kootenay Lake rose on May 14, 1973, to a maximum of 3.5 feet above the computed natural level, dimished to zero on 30 Sep., and rose to 3.4 feet on 27-28 Dec. Storage at Duncan and Libby Dams 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 or in Libby Reservoir. Streamflow measurements have been made regularly throughout the year by the U. S. Geological Survey and by the Water Survey of Canada. The West Kootenay Power and Light Company has continued to supply the Board and other agencies involved with the completed records of their regulation of Kootenay Lake as affected by the operation of the Corra Linn Dam and power plant. The control works at the outlet of Duck Lake were operated during the year in accordance with the Orders of IJC. The gates of the Duck Lake outlet works were opened on Sep. 9, 1972, and closed on May 5, 1973. The elevation of Duck Lake was 1,743.20 feet and the elevation of Kootenay Lake at Queens Bay was 1,739.14 feet. The gates were reopened on Nov. 1, 1973, when the elevation of Duck Lake was 1,745.53 and Kootenay Lake was 1,744.92 feet. A staff gage was maintained in Duck Lake and gage readings were obtained by the Creston Valley Wildlife Management Authority during the year in accordance with the Mar. 31, 1970, Order of the IJC. Storage at Libby Dam greatly reduced the inflow to Kootenay Lake during the storage filling period (and reduced the peak flow) and moderately increased the inflow to Kootenay Lake during the storage drawdown periods. Work on the new Kootenay Canal power plant is proceeding on schedule. Waters of the Kootenay River will be fed to this plant via a canal (nearly complete) running from the Corra Linn Forebay. The power plant is about one-half completed. Generation of power is scheduled for September 1975. 2T. INTERNATIONAL OSOYOOS LAKE BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was constituted to insure compliance with the provision of the Order of Approval of the IJC dated Jul. 12, 1943, directing investigation of high water conditions on the Okanogan River and studies of the relationship 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 the IJC dated Sep. 12, 1946, to carry out the provision of the Order relative to the alternation and operation of the Zosel Dam. Members of the Board for fiscal year. For Canada: Mr. G. Tofte, District Engineer, Water Survey of Canada, Department of the Environment, Vancouver, British Columbia, Chairman, and Mr. J. N. Stevens, Manager, Marine and Civil Engineering, Department of Public Works, Vancouver, British Columbia. For the United States: Mr. L. B. Laird, District Chief, Water Resources Division, U. S. Geological Survey, Tacoma, Wash., Chairman, and the District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, Seattle. COL W. O. Bachus was District Engineer until Nov. 22, 1973, and COL R. J. Eineigl was District Engineer thereafter. Operations during fiscal year. The Board did not meet during the year. No reports or complaints of flood damage in the vicinity of Osoyoos Lake were received by the Board during 1973. An annual report was submitted to the IJC. The maximum elevation of Osoyoos Lake was 911.17 feet on Jul. 22-23, 1973, the highest in 44 48-18 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS years of record. The Okanogan River at Oroville peaked at 541 cfs on Mar. 28, 1973. The Similkameen River near Nighthawk peaked at 12,400 cfs on May 18, 1973. Backwater from the Similkameen River affected the Okanogan River below Zosel Dam from May 15 to Jun. 2 and Jun. 7-9, 1973. The daily elevations of Zosel Mill Pond exceeded 911.00 on Jul. 22-23, 1973. During the spring freshet of 1974 the Zosel Dam lost a section of the dam next to the recently built fish ladder. The local county government made the necessary temporary repairs and was reimbursed by the State of Washington. Mr. R. Zosel, the dam owner, desires to abandon maintenance on the structure and is willing to relinquish ownership to others to rebuild and maintain the structure. 2U. INTERNATIONAL SKAGIT RIVER BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The IJC approved on Jan. 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 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 Board of Control to consist of two members, one from the engineering services of Canada and the other from the United States, but the IJC did not establish the Board at that time. On Jan. 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 (1972) as established by the Geodetic Survey of Canada. In a Jul. 31, 1967, directive to the designated Board members the IJC stated that the Board was established on Apr. 4, 1967. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. G. Tofte, District Engineer, Water Survey of Canada, Department of the Environment, Vancouver, British Columbia, for Canada, and the District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, Seattle, for the United States. COL W. O. Bachus was the Seattle District Engineer until Nov. 22, 1973, and COL R. J. Eineigl was District Engineer thereafter. Operations during the fiscal year. The water surface at the international boundary reached a maximum elevation of 1602.83 feet on Aug. 15, 1973, as recorded by the gaging station, Skagit River, at the international boundary near Hope. The Board did not meet formally or visit the area during the year. An annual report was submitted to the IJC. There is known environmental concern over the proposed raising of Ross Dam and Lake, and the IJC accomplished an environmental study of the area independent of the Board. 2V. COLUMBIA RIVER TREATY ENTITIES Constitution and duties. The Columbia River Treaty, which provides for the cooperative development of the water resources of the Columbia River Basin by the United States and Canada, was ratified on Sep. 16, 1964, by the two Governments. Article XIV of the treaty provided that each country should designate entities to carry out the operating arrangements necessary to implement the treaty. The principal recurring duties of the entities include establishment and operation of a hydrometeorological system, preparation of hydroelectric operating plants and flood control operating plans, determination of downstream power benefits, and assisting and cooperating with the Permanent Engineering Board in the discharge of its functions.
