The U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers, Omaha District, is fully engaged in a flood fight in
the city of Jamestown, N.D. For the first time since the
Jamestown Dam was constructed in 1954, the spillway has
experienced minor spillover due to high winds and runoff from
rainfall. The Corps is keeping a
close eye on the situation, and adjusting water releases at the
dam as necessary to prevent uncontrolled releases via the
spillway. (Photo by Monique Farmer/Public Affairs Specialist) |

The U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers heralds its beginnings during the founding
of our nation. On June 16, 1775, the Continental Congress
established the Army and provided for a Chief Engineer, Col. Richard
Gridley, to immediately direct fortifications during the Battle of
Bunker Hill.
In 1802,
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers was made permanent.
On Jan. 2,
1934, Capt. James M. Young became the first commander of the newly-
established Omaha District. The immediate mission of the Omaha
District was the creation of the Ft. Peck Dam in Montana.
