- Description:
- The document outlines the land acquisition procedures for the construction of the Broken Bow Dam and Reservoir on the Mountain Fork River in Oklahoma. It explains the process by which the Corps of Engineers acquires land, the rights retained by landowners, and the compensation offered. The amount of land to be acquired is determined after a thorough investigation, and former owners or tenants may retain certain rights. The land will be purchased by April 1964, and appraisals will be conducted to determine fair compensation for the property. Land suitable for farming or grazing may be leased from the government for agricultural purposes.
