Great Lake Behind Fort Peck Dam Reaches High Level
Army engineers report Fort Peck reservoir already extends about 60 miles up the Missouri valley and sits roughly 100 feet above the original river bed. When full it will hold 19,472,000 acre feet of water, with current storage near 1,954,500 acre feet. Seasonal releases aim to keep the river navigable below Sioux City, Iowa, while recreation plans emerge for eastern Montana's drought concerns.
