Amistead Dam Plan Moves to President Eisenhower
A Senate approved bill authorizes a US Mexico pact to build the Amistead Dam and Reservoir on the Rio Grande at Del Rio. The project, costing about 109.6 million dollars, would be operated jointly by the US and Mexico and focus on flood control and water storage with limited power potential. The US would pay most of the cost and water use would be managed by Texas. The Falcon Dam nearby has not fully controlled Rio Grande floods.
