This annual report has been prepared in accordance 1·rith paragraph 12-C of ER 1110-2-llrOO to summarize siEnificant tributary rese>rvoir regulation actjvities of the Omaha District. The period covered is August 1976 through July 1977. II. RESERVOIRS IN TEE m.!f\HA DISTRICT. a. Reservoirs vi.th Flood Control Stor~. There are 33 tributary reservoirs with allocated flood control storage covered in this report. The dams are listed belov. Included are 22 Corps of Engineers dams and 11 of the Bureau of Reclamation da.ros. The reservoir locations are shovm on Inclosure l and nertinent data are presented in Inclosure 2. Inclosure 3 tabulates the mmerical buildup of Corps reservoirs in the Or1aha Distr:ict, Pictured on the preceding pages are the Salt Creek Dams Numbers 9, 17 and 18. As summarized in Section IV and V, the low level r-ate at Dam No. lil was opened to make relcaS(:.>S for dovmstrea.m irrigation wn.ter rip,-hts, As summarized in Section VI, Dams 9 and 17 were the ob,j ect of ease­ ment inquiries.

Reservoirs Without Flood Control Storaee. There are two Corps of Engineers tributary lakes without allocated flood control storage included in this report. They are both subim~oundments of the Hissouri River Hain Stem Projects and were formed by the construction of relocations for transportation facilities and utilities. Lake Audubon, a subimpoundment of Lake Sakakawea, is located just northeast of Riverdale, North Dakota. The lake is a key feature of the Bureau of Reclamation's Garrison Diversion Unit. Lake Pocasse, a subimpoundment of Lake Oahe, is located near Pollock, South Dakota. The Bureau of Reclamation is planning to use the lake as a regulating reservoir for the proposed Pollock-Herreid Irrigation Unit. Both lakes are used for fish and wildlife and recreational purposes. Their locations are shown on Inclosure l and pertinent data are presented in Inclosure 2. III. WATER SUPPLY. Water supply in the Omaha District was generally much below average. There was little or no accumulative wl.nter snow­ pack and spring runoff in the plains area. Drought conditions prevailed much of the time in the mountains of Montana, 1-.'yorlinr, and Colorado and in the plains of Hontana, North Dakota and northern South Dakota. The high elevation snowmelt runoff was much below average. Inclosure 4 gives the percent of normal runoff at pertinent locations in the Omaha District. IV. RESERVOIR ACCOMPLIRHMFNTS. a. Corps of Eneineers Dams. None of the Corps of Engineers tributary dams were credited with flood control benefits during the period.

Operations the Past Year. Individual project operation summaries are Inclosure 5. Significant reservoir operations during the period are summarized below. 1. Corps of Engineers. At Lake Audubon, during April, water was pumped from Lake Sak~tkawea to raise the Lake Audubon .;pool to elevation 1848, which is two feet below the future normal operating level. At Bear Creek, the dam emb~tnkment WitS closed on 19 July. Special measures were taken by the Corps so that this operation would not interfere with State water rights. The Corps obtained the use of a Veterans Administration water right to be able to fill the dead storap;e pool. During closure the contractor pumped streamflow (3 c.f.s.) through the outlet works while the dead storage was filling. This plan of action was decided upon following consultations with various State offices, Veterans Administration officials and local Denver interests. At Chatfield, the State of Colorado, through their Hater Commissioner, began to charge the lake an evaporation loss in Hay. I.' 2. Bureau of Reclamation. The lack of runoff prevented the joint use zones from filling in Boysen, Canyon Ferry, Jamestown and ¥ello,~ail reservoirs. Of the eleven Bureau projects, only Clark Canyon and Heart Butte filled their conservation pools. b. Operating Plans for August 1977 throup:h July 1978. 4 • l. Corps of Enp;ineers. Hi th the exception of Bear Creek, Cherry Creek, Chatfield and Pipestem, all Corps of Enp:ineers tributary druns have ungated outlets and no special plans are required. Evacua­ tion of stored flood water in these pro,jects will he scheduled as soon as practicable after each flood event. Flood releases from Pinestem Drun are coordinated with those from the Bureau's Jnmestown Dam. At Salt Creek Drun Ho. 18, releases to satisfy downstream water rir:hts for irrigation v.rere terminated on 5 August 1977. Next summer, releases again are expected to equ~tl the inflo;r up to 3 c.

Since that time, the Service's Fisheries Program, including the National Fish Hatchery System (NFHS), has been involved in, among other things, mitigating the losses of fish habitats, fish populations, and fishing opportunities. The U.S. Congress and the Courts have provided laws, appropriations, and orders which have authorized the construction and operation of dams, and other water diversion projects. The construction and operation of these Federal water resource development projects have had impacts on many water systems and their respective fish populations. The construction and operation of these projects have resulted in the need to build and operate fish hatcheries to provide direct mitigation (e.g., provide disease-free fish eggs or fish for stocking) for waters impaired by Federal water resource development projects.

The program was developed at the annual conference of the Bureau of Reclamation which ended August 1 at Santa Fe, New Mexico, The program is based on the Public Works appropriation bill as passed by the Rouse of Representatives and on such items as the Senate bas concurred in. The appropriation bill is now in conference and the Bureau program is subject t o such changes as the House and Senate conferees may agree on and the Congress approves and as finally signed by the President into law. In the meantime, the Bureau of Reclamation has been functioning since July 1 by authority of a concurrent resolution. Commissioner of Recl amation W. A. Dexheimer said that construction contem­ pl ated by the Bureau this fiscal year ending June 30, 1959, will result in a water supply for 181,500 acres of land not presently irrigated and a supplemental supply for 61,000 acres now receiving an insufficient supply. An additional 61 7 200 kilowatts of hydroelectric generating capacity will be placed in operation this year at multipurpose projects built by the Bureau of Reclamation in the 17 Western states. Details of the programmed construction, by regions, as first announced in Santa Fe, August 1, follow: REGION ONE Little Wood River Project, Idaho.

    FISCAL YEAR 2020 Civil Works Budget of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers March 2019

    FISCAL YEAR 2020 Civil Works Budget of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Department of the Army Office, Assistant Secretary of the Army (Civil Works) March 2019 DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY OFFICE OF THE ASSISTANT SECRETARY FOR CIVIL WORKS WASHINGTON, D.C. 20310-0108 OVERVIEW OF FISCAL YEAR 2020 CIVIL WORKS BUDGET The President's Budget for Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 for the Army Corps of Engineers Civil Works program funds the development, management, restoration, and protection of the Nation's water, wetlands, and related resources, through studies, the construction, operation and maintenance of projects, the Corps regulatory program, and emergency response preparedness. These investments will enable communities to reduce their flood risks, facilitate waterborne transportation, restore significant aquatic ecosystems, and generate low-cost renewable hydropower. The Budget focuses on the highest performing work within the three main missions of the Corps: commercial navigation, flood and storm damage reduction, and aquatic ecosystem restoration. The Budget provides $4.827 billion in discretionary funding for the Civil Works program, including $2.308 billion for commercial navigation, $1.011 billion for flood and storm damage reduction, and $187 million for aquatic ecosystem restoration. The Budget funds capital investments in the inland waterways, and proposes establishing an annual fee to support infrastructure investment and economic growth by helping finance the users’ share of future capital investments on inland waterways, as well as 10 percent of the operation and maintenance cost, in these waterways. The Budget also proposes to divest the Washington Aqueduct, which is the wholesale water supply system for Washington, D.C.; Arlington County, Virginia; the City of Falls Church, Virginia; and parts of Fairfax County, Virginia and is the only local water supply system in the Nation owned and operated by the Corps.
