Flood plan eyed to ease McDowell flood risk and build schools
A proposed multi million dollar Army Corps of Engineers Tug Fork Flood Control Project would affect about 900 homes and businesses in McDowell County. If funded it would relocate or raze structures in the flood plain and may include new school construction with flood proofing for Jaeger and several elementary schools. The plan, to be completed on a volunteer basis, awaits final approval and funding decisions by October and would require public education efforts.
