Diversion Plan for Missouri River Irrigation Prompts Debate
At the National Resources Planning Board regional meeting in Bismarck W G Sloan of the Reclamation Bureau outlined a plan to divert Missouri River waters below Fort Peck into the Big Muddy basin then pump into North Dakota to serve the Souris Cheyenne and James rivers. The proposal would reduce Yankton flow to about 6000 cfs part of the season and requires storage reservoirs in South Dakota to maintain navigation. M Q Sharpe of South Dakota urged state compact approval before any major changes.
