Corps of Engineers plans drought response for Southeast
The U S Army Corps of Engineers in Atlanta outlines contingency water management plans for the Chattahoochee Flint and Apalachicola basins as the Southeast faces an extended drought. Lakes Lanier West Point and Walter F George are near or below normal levels with navigation and recreation affected. If drought persists into 1987, Lake Lanier could drop toward 1004 feet, prompting water restrictions and reassessment of allocations for cities like Franklin and LaGrange drawing from West Point Dam.

Navy to conduct underwater blast tests in Chesapeake Bay
The Navy plans up to 13 underwater explosives tests this week in Anderson Deep four miles east of the Patuxent River mouth. State officials and commercial fishermen oppose, warning of fish kills and pollution. Navy will monitor for schools of fish before each test and assess ecological impact, with expected per-test charges around 1 to 16.5 pounds of explosives, unlikely to exceed 10 pounds per test.
