Missouri Ozark dams threaten canoe country and caves
The Army Corps of Engineers plans five dams on Meramec and four other rivers to create lakes for recreation and flood control at an estimated cost around 100 million dollars. Opponents led by the Sierra Club warn of loss of canoe routes and caves including Onondaga Cave, while supporters cite water supply and flood protection. Congress has funded initial work, and a compromise proposal advocates smaller dams instead of the Meramec project.
