Wildlife Service warns Mid-State project harms Platte wildlife
United Press International reports the US Fish and Wildlife Service cautioned that the Mid-State Reclamation project in central Nebraska would severely harm wildlife resources. Area manager Wallenstrom noted the data and warned that future river flows would drop dramatically, destroying sand bars, wet meadows, and reducing crane, duck, and geese presence while cutting hunting and educational opportunities. Opponents cite flood control alternatives offering economic benefits with far less land loss.
