Land Owners Discuss Plan of Straightening Nishna River Channel
Mills County landowners weigh a project to straighten the Nishna River through the east end, cutting a 40 mile serpentine course to about 20 miles. Fremont and Pottawattamie counties push ditching to remove river bends, potentially draining swamps, boosting farm land, and aiding towns like Hastings and Henderson. Critics warn of damages, costs, and possible lower rainfall due to reduced evaporation, while some fear flood waters and arid conditions if channels are laid straight. Local farmers discuss impacts on land values, agriculture, and regional growth.
