Erosion study urged no action by federal engineers
A 1981 four year, one million dollar study on Kansas River erosion urged federal engineers to do nothing to stabilize the problem due to lack of feasible methods and insufficient funds. David Day, chief of project formulation at the district corps in Kansas City, said erosion cannot be stopped and money will not be available for further study or mitigation. The note accompanies a Lawrence crime rate drop, basketball regional plans, and a 1906 retrospective in the Lawrence Daily World.
