Recent flooding has triggered renewed interest in a flood damage reduction project for New Hartford. This report documents a multi-disciplinary investigation into potential solutions to reduce flood damages. Some of the alternatives investigated include levees, channelization, flood-proofing, floodplain evacuation, flood-warning system, and reservoirs. None of the alternatives were found to be economically feasible, and the study has been terminated.

This report presents the results of a preliminary evaluation of possible solutions to reduce flood damages from Willow Creek to Mason City, Iowa. The purpose of the Reconnaissance phase is to make a determination whether the planning should proceed further based on a preliminary appraisal of the Federal interest, and if potential solutions are in concert with current policies and budgetary priorities. The city of Mason City is located in Cerro Gordo County in north-central Iowa. Willow Creek flows generally easterly through Mason City and joins the Winnebago River just upstream from Kentucky Avenue (see plate 1). This study evaluates possible solutions to reduce flood damages to the Mason City community. This study was initiated in June 1988 when representatives from Mason City and the Rock Island District met and reviewed the flood problems associated with Willow Creek. The Rock Island District received funding for the reconnaissance study in August 1988. This report presents the results of engineering, economic, and environmental investigations. These investigations are in sufficient detail to determine if any potential solutions will likely have Federal interest. (sdw).

Two study areas are involved for this reconnaissance level investigation of Mississippi River flooding. The first area is the village of Hull. The second area is bounded by the upper reach of the Sny Island Levee Drainage District (SILDD) levee from its upstream tie-off near Fall Creek, Illinois, through the Hadley-McCraney Diversion Channel levee. This levee was constructed to provide protection to the 50-year event level. Hull lies within this reach of SILDD. This reconnaissance report presents the results of analyses of possible solutions to reduce damages from Mississippi River flooding in Hull. Plans considered include ring levee alignments around Hull, raising the upper reach SILDD main stem levee, and nonstructural flood damage reduction measures. This reconnaissance study concludes that additional flood damage reduction measures for Hull are not economically feasible and that further Federal participation is not warranted.

Sny Basin: This federally constructed flood control project was completed under the authority of the Flood Control Act of 1946 to reduce interior drainage flood damages within the SILDD. The Sny Channel is the primary drainageway for the 110, 000 acres of agricultural bottomland, as well as runoff from adjacent upland areas. Project features include two retarding and desilting reservoirs for Pigeon Creek and Horton-Dutch Creeks; three diversion channels for Hadley-McCraney Creeks, Kiser Creek, and Six Mile-Bay Creeks to pass runoff from the uplands drainage area directly to the Mississippi River; improvement of certain reaches of the Sny Channel; construction of three pumping stations; construction of a downstream closing levee to block backwater from the Mississippi River; and other remedial works necessitated by the improvement. Construction began in August 1959 and was completed in September 1971.

This report presents the results of an investigation of the flooding problems along the East Branch of the South Branch of the Kishwaukee River within De Kalb County, Illinois. The area specifically addressed is a mobile home park outside the village of Sycamore, Illinois. The purpose of the reconnaissance study is to define the flooding problem, identify potential solutions, and determine whether there is a Federal interest in a flood damage reduction plan, based on preliminary appraisal of costs, benefits, and environmental impacts. The reconnaissance study phase is also the appropriate time to assess the level of interest and support in the potential solution by non-Federal interests. Based on the findings of this reconnaissance report, it is recommended that the Section 205 study of flood damage reduction measures for the Evergreen Village Mobile Home Park in De Kalb County, Illinois, be terminated.

This report presents the results of an investigation of the flooding problems along the Illinois and Michigan Canal within La Salle and Grundy Counties, Illinois. The canal is owned and managed by the Illinois Department of Conservation (IDOC). In a letter dated August 19, 1983, the IDOC requested that the Section 205 study authority be enacted to examine the flooding problem. An initial appraisal was completed in 1988 and a reconnaissance study was initiated in February 1988. The purpose of the reconnaissance study is to define the flooding problem, identify potential solutions, and determine whether there is a Federal interest in a flood damage reduction plan, based on a preliminary appraisal of costs, benefits, and environmental impacts. The reconnaissance study phase is also the appropriate time to assess the level of interest and support in the potential solution by non-Federal interests. (sdw).
