This book was released on 2017-10-05 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Missouri River stretches from western Montana to St. Louis, Missouri. The Corps manages six dams and reservoirs on the river to provide flood control and for other purposes, such as recreation and navigation. The Corps bases reservoir release decisions on the guidance in the Master Manual. In the 2011 flood, the Corps managed the highest runoff volume since 1898, resulting in record reservoir releases. Subsequently, drought occurred in the basin in 2012 and 2013. GAO was asked to review the Corps' release decisions and communication during the flood and drought. This report examines (1) experts' views on the Corps' release decisions; (2) experts' recommendations to improve the Corps' release decisions; and (3) stakeholders' views on the Corps' communication, as well as any suggested improvements. GAO worked with the National Academy of Sciences to convene a meeting of nine experts to discuss the Corps' data, forecasts, and release decisions. GAO also interviewed 45 Missouri River basin stakeholders, including state and local agencies, among others, to discuss their views on the Corps' communication. The views of stakeholders are not generalizable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Army Corps of Engineers' management of the Missouri River reservoir system under drought conditions between 1988 and 1990, focusing on: (1) whether the Corps followed a drought contingency plan; and (2) how the Corps set plan operating priorities. GAO found that: (1) between 1988 and 1990, the Corps followed a drought contingency plan when releasing water from the reservoir system; (2) the plan reduced winter release rates, shortened navigation seasons on the Missouri River, reduced navigation channel water levels, and reduced the amount of water usually released under normal operating conditions by 17 percent; (3) the drought and the Corps' response to it adversely impacted all of the reservoirs' purposes except flood control; (4) the Corps' drought contingency plan did not reflect the Missouri River Basin's current economic condition, because the Corps based the plan on outdated, invalid assumptions regarding the amount of water needed for navigation and irrigation; (5) the Corps is reviewing its operation of the Missouri River reservoir system and updating the Missouri River Division's Master Manual; (6) the Corps believes that it must continue to give recreation a lower operating priority than other authorized purposes, even if this low priority results in decreased system benefits, unless it obtains congressional approval to change existing operating priorities; and (7) three states filed a federal lawsuit questioning whether the Corps' drought contingency plan conserved the reservoir's water and equitably distributed the negative impacts of the drought among all reservoir water users, particularly between the upper basin's recreation industries and the lower basin's navigation industry.

Book excerpt: This report is a tale of a great peaceful constructive undertaking -- freely assumed by the people of this country. It is a tale, briefly told, of our national effort to develop the vast resources of one-sixth the area of our country -- the Missouri River basin, greatest in the United States and one of the greatest in the world. The goal: Transformation -- of a drought-plagued, flood-ridden land, periodically over-grazed and overplowed; a valley rich in resources yet underpopulated, underindustrialized, and economically unstable -- to a land of greater economic security and strength, contributing its full share to the American welfare. In 1944, Congress authorized the Missouri River basin development program. How the plan works, its results to date, and future objectives are related in this booklet.
