Clifty Reservoir Halts Jackson County Levee Plans
The U S Corps of Engineers shelved a $4 597 000 levee effort protecting Cortland Medora and nearby lands as a replacement scheme for flood control shifts toward the Clifty Creek Reservoir at Hartsville in Bartholomew County. The plan would have 27.2 miles of levee along White River and 11.3 miles along White Creek, with costs totaling 4 597 000 and 797 000 respectively. Public support faded after the Clifty Creek project was proposed and listed as deferred due to local opposition and a push for upstream reservoirs to manage floods and conserve soil and water.
