Big Sioux flood plan rejected by basin delegates
In Sioux Falls last Friday Big Sioux river basin delegates spurned a Army Engineers flood control plan calling for channel straightening. They preferred water conservation with water kept in the river and supported check dams along tributaries. Officials noted the need to coordinate with soil conservation programs and local committees to pursue a broader water program.
