FLOOD CONTROL RESERVOIR OPERATIONS A coordinated system of flood control dams, all of which have flood control as primary storage available with recreation and/or water supply as secondary storages in most of the projects, has been established in five major flood producing basins in New England. During periods of flood flows, regulation of reservoirs is fully coordinated within each basin dependent upon its location in the watershed, its available storage capacity and origin of the flood. In addition to flood control releases, water supply, flow augmentation and hydropower releases were made from selected reservoirs. Winter pools are maintained at many projects to submerge the flood control gates and keep them from freezing. 1-26 NEW ENGLAND DIVISION During FY96 there were two significant flood events. During January record amounts of snowfall produced high water equivalent in the snow pack throughout New England. The last week of January brought thawing temperatures with three rainfall events that produced flooding in most all of the main rivers and tributaries. The second event occurred during the April snowmelt period when 2-3 inches of rain fell over New England watersheds. Damages prevented, due to flood control reservoir operations only, during these events amounted to $83,315,000. CONNECTICUT RIVER BASIN Regulation for canoe or kayak activities occurred during FY96 at Otter Brook in March; Birch Hill, Tully, Littleville and Knightville in April; Ball Mountain and Townshend in April and September. Releases for hydropower from Colebrook Lake during non-flood periods of FY96 were controlled by the Hartford MDC. Releases for hydropower from North Hartland Lake during non-flood periods for most of FY96 were controlled by the Vermont Electric Generation and Transmission Cooperative. MERRIMACK RIVER BASIN Blackwater was regulated for canoe races in April 1996. THAMES RIVER BASIN Mansfield Hollow Lake was regulated for canoe races in June 1996, East Brimfield and Westville Lakes were regulated for a river race in April 1996. The latter two projects also supplied small releases for low flow augmentation to American Optical Co. during the summer months. 59. HURRICANE BARRIER OPERATIONS Five hurricane barriers are situated along the southern coast of New England, protecting coastal communities from tidal flooding associated with hurricanes and severe coastal storms. The Corps operates the navigational elements of the Stamford, CT and New Bedford- Fairhaven, MA barriers. The Fox Point, RI, the Pawcatuck and New London, CT barriers are operated by the local communities. A brief resume of operations for the fiscal year follows: STAMFORD BARRIER. The barrier gates were operated on nine occasions for coastal storms during FY 1996. Total benefits associated with gate operations during FY 1996 totalled $920,000. NEW BEDFORD BARRIER. During FY 1996, the New Bedford Barrier was operated on 38 different occasions resulting in a total of $380,000 in benefits. FOX POINT HURRICANE BARRIER. The Fox Point Hurricane Barrier was not operated during FY 1996. PAWCATUCK HURRICANE BARRIER. The Pawcatuck Hurricane Barrier was not operated during FY 1996. NEW LONDON HURRICANE BARRIER. The New London Hurricane Barrier was not operated during FY 1996. 60. FLOOD CONTROL WORK UNDER SPECIAL AUTHORIZATION Flood control activities pursuant to Section 205.

COLLECTION AND STUDY OF BASIC DATA The Division Engineer is the U.S. member on the Saint Croix River Board of Control. Annual inspections are made of conditions on the Saint Croix River and basic hydrologic information is compiled. A report of operations and development in the basin was prepared in cooperation with Canadian counterparts. Total costs for 1-27 REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE ARMY ON CIVIL WORKS ACTIVITIES FOR FY1996 the FY were $25,134. Total costs to September 30, 1996 are $331,991. Concerns about fluctuating water levels on Spednik and East Grand Lakes and its adverse effects on fisheries and recreation were raised at two public meetings held by the International Joint Commission (IJC) in August 1992. These lakes are currently operated in conjunction with downstream hydropower facilities. The IJC has requested that the Saint Croix River Board of Control reexamine the Orders of Approval for Spednik and East Grand Lakes. A range of lake levels and minimum flow releases will be studied to assist the IJC in developing new operational procedures for these lakes which increase recreational opportunities, enhance the environment and improve water level and flow regulation. Total costs for FY were $48,151. Total costs to September 30, 1996 are $90,526. The Gulf of Maine Council on the Marine Environment was established in 1989 under an agreement signed by the Governors of Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts, and the Premiers of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. The Council was tasked under this agreement to develop consistent policies, initiatives and programs designed to protect and conserve the shared natural resources of the Gulf of Maine. In April 1993, the Council requested the New England Division Engineer to participate in this international program as an "observer" to the Council. In this capacity, the Division Engineer is expected to attend Council meetings and support their initiatives to the extent possible. In addition to the Division Engineer's direct participation, a representative of the Corps is a member of the Working Group to the Council, which implements directives of the Council. The Corps representative on the Working Group is assisting the Habitat Sub-Group to establish policies, set priorities and identify lead agencies for implementing habitat restoration projects in the Gulf of Maine. This effort includes investigating potential habitat restoration sites eligible for Corps participation under Section 1135 and coordination of input from other Federal agencies. Total costs for the FY were $29,454. Total costs to September 30, 1996 are $74,014. Flood plain studies comprise compilation and dissemination, upon responsible local request, of information on floods and potential flood damages, including identification of areas subject to inundation by floods of various magnitudes and frequencies, and general criteria for guidance in use of flood plain area; and engineering advice to local interests for their use in planning to ameliorate flood hazard. Total costs for the FY were $312,577. Total costs to September 30, 1996 are $8,737,190. The April 1987 flood was one of the largest of recent times in New England, resulting in spillway discharge at six Corps flood control reservoirs. A comprehensive hydrologic analysis of this flood event is needed to develop a base of information for use in future planning and design studies, as well as reservoir operation. Fiscal year 1996 funds were used to complete hydrologic analysis of the 1987 flood at Edward MacDowell Lake within the Merrimack River Basin. Total costs for the FY were $12,383. Total costs to September 30, 1996 are $62,569. 63. PLANNING, ENGINEERING AND DESIGN Total costs for Planning, Engineering and Design were $713 for local protection studies for Saugus River and Tributaries, Massachusetts. 64. PRECONSTRUCTION ENGINEERING AND DESIGN Preconstruction Engineering and Design costs were $102,804 for the navigation project at Boston, Massachusetts; $16,042 for the local protection project at Roughans Point, Revere, Massachusetts; $11,540 for the local protection project at Saugus River and Tributaries, Massachusetts; and $876,209 for work on ten stormwater management projects. 1-28 NEW ENGLAND DIVISION TABLE 1-A COST AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT See Total Cost Section to In Text Project Funding FY93 FY94 FY95 FY96 Sep. 30, 1996 Andrews River, MA (Contributed Funds) Aquatic Plant Control Aunt Lydia's Cove Chatham, MA (Contributed Funds) (Contributed Funds - Other) Boston Harbor, MA Bullocks Point Cove, RI (Contributed Funds) Cape Cod Canal, MA (Contributed Funds) Cohasset Harbor, MA New Work Approp.
