Western Flood Control Sites – North Dakota: Lake Ashtabula, Homme Lake Souris River
Location/Project Components
|
Homme Lake is 2 miles west of Park River, N.D., on the South Branch of the Park River. It is comprised of an earthen embankment, intake works, control gate and overflow concrete spillway. Walsh County, North Dakota, operates an overnight camping, day use and boat launching recreation area on leased land.
Lake Ashtabula (Baldhill Dam) is 12 miles northwest of Valley City, N.D, on the Sheyenne River. It is comprised of an embankment, concrete overflow emergency spillway; service spillway with three tainter gates; significant land holdings; and several overnight camping, swimming, boat launching, picnicking and playground facilities. About 2,500 acres are managed for wildlife management.
|
Souris River complex is owned and managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. It encompasses Lake Darling Dam/Upper Souris and J. Clark Salyer National Wildlife Refuges. Lake Darling is approximately 20 miles northwest of Minot, N.D., and J. Clark Salyer is 65 miles northeast of Minot. The Corps has operations, maintenance, rehabilitation and replacement responsibilities as defined in a 1989 memorandum of understanding and subsequent defining documents.
Homme and Ashtabula are multiple-purpose sites with flood risk management, recreation and environmental stewardship business lines.
|
Operation
|
All activities are completed by site staff at Lake Ashtabula and Fargo. Homme Lake is unstaffed. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service staffs Souris River. Lake Ashtabula also provides significant support to readiness (emergency) response activities in the Sheyenne and Red River basins. Water control activities have a direct impact on flood responses in downstream communities.
|
Lake Ashtabula water provides a backup water supply for communities on the Sheyenne and Red Rivers.
|
Status
|
Declining budget allocations will reduce temporary and permanent staff at the sites, reduce services, potentially close or consolidate public use areas and postpone backlog maintenance and repair items.
