Aquariums in G F & C Building Drained in Capitol Mall Project
Aquariums housing Arkansas native fish in the Little Rock state Game and Fish Commission basement were drained at the request of architects from Arkansas State Building Services due to below surface water problems near the Capitol Mall construction. The displays will be removed to aid excavation but wildlife viewing areas remain accessible. Federal aid funds for Arkansas totals over 2 million for 1977, part of 62 million nationwide for sport fish and wildlife programs. Arkansas’ share, 109.3 million to states this year, requires state matching funds and adherence to federal requirements.
