- Description:
- The document consists of correspondence regarding the proposed reports on the Water Quality Study, Arkansas-Red River Basins, Hugo Reservoir, and Broken Bow Reservoir in Oklahoma. The reports discuss the advisability of including hydroelectric-power facilities at Broken Bow Reservoir and recommend modifications to the project to include fish and wildlife conservation and general recreation. The total estimated cost of the project is $39,600,000 for construction, with local interests required to bear costs for water supply. The Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors concurs with the recommendations, and the Chief of Engineers supports including hydroelectric-power facilities at Broken Bow Reservoir.
