Great Lakes Level Regulating Plan Studied
Army engineers tentatively approve a plan for surveying and possibly regulating Great Lakes lake levels. Col. W. P. Trower urges flood control projects and coordinated shore protection with federal aid under beach erosion laws. He recommends state and local laws to curb construction in high-risk areas as 1951–52 damages around the lakes reach about 61 million dollars. Lake Michigan bears over 30 million, chiefly from waves. The Statue of Liberty idea traces to Edouard de Laboulaye.
