NAVIGATION ,FLOOD control - Abstract
The article discusses the two bills that are being pursued before the U.S. Senate regarding Missouri River's capability of navigation, flood control and irrigation. One is the 1944 version of the rivers and harbor bill and the other is the postwar control bill which embodies the Army Engineer's plan for a chain of twelve flood control reservoirs. But, other group of senators would pursue to amend the rivers and harbors act to prioritize irrigation. The Bureau of Reclamation proposes that Missouri River's remaining water be use for navigation.
