North Ottawa Impoundment Project, Grant County, Minn.
Location/Description
|
The North Ottawa Section 206 project is located in western Minnesota, approximately 25 miles southeast of Breckenridge, Minn., in North Ottawa Township, Grant County.
The project is part of a larger project of the Bois de Sioux Watershed District. The watershed district is constructing an impoundment for flood damage reduction. The Corps of Engineers is proposing to build structures within the impoundment to restore habitat for migrating waterfowl.
The watershed district is building external dikes to create a 3 square-mile impoundment area. Channels would collect runoff from a contributing area of 71 square miles within the Rabbit River watershed. The Rabbit River is a tributary of the Bois de Sioux River, which drains to the Red River of the North. The project would provide floodwater storage for spring runoff and summer rainfalls.
|
The Corps' project would allow management of the stored water to provide a variety of environmental benefits. Internal dikes and water control structures would divide the impoundment into smaller pools to maximize flexibility for natural resource management. The project would provide wildlife habitat and recreational opportunities, moderate the streamflow hydrograph, control sediment and improve water quality.
|
Status
|
The study was halted in February 2004 and is on hold pending federal funding. The Corps began a feasibility study for the ecosystem restoration features in September 2002. The watershed district began construction activities without Federal assistance in September 2004. Flood damage reduction features will not be cost-shared as part of the Corps' Section 206 project.
|
Authority
|
Section 206 of the Water Resources Development Act of 1996, Public Law 104-303, as amended
|
Fiscal
|
The preliminary restoration plan is prepared at full federal expense. All remaining costs for planning, design and construction will be cost shared at 65-percent federal and 35-percent non-federal if the project is approved and proceeds to construction. Under Section 206 authority, the Corps can share only in the ecosystem restoration portion of the project and only up to a maximum $5 million federal contribution.
Federal cost $5 million
Non-federal cost $2.7 million
Total estimated cost $7.7 million
