Mark Twain Lake, built in 1984, is a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers project authorized for flood risk management in the Salt River Basin, hydroelectric power generation, water supply, fish and wildlife conservation, recreation, and incidental navigation support to the Mississippi River system. At normal pool, the reservoir provides 18,600... Read More
Lake Red Rock is the largest lake in Iowa with a surface area of 15,250 acres at conservation pool. The lake lacks adequate littoral structure. The project will increase structural habitat, improve angler opportunities and enhance the quality of the fishery in Lake Red Rock. The project will provide quality... Read More
Develop a hypolimnetic oxygenation design plan to oxygenate the Island Park Reservoir hypolimnion to 6 mg/L. Project goal is to permanently eliminate the drawdown-driven oxythermal habitat squeeze by designing, evaluating, and installing a hypolimnetic oxygenation system. A shovel-ready plan allows leveraging up to $3 million in USBR WaterSmart grants available... Read More
Rend Lake has a surface area of 20,633 acres, a maximum depth of 35 feet, and a mean depth of 10 feet. The lake is thirteen miles long and three miles wide and has 162 miles of shoreline. It is the second largest impoundment in Illinoi This project is proposed... Read More
The City of Cherryvale planned on restoring and enhancing Lake Tanko starting in 2020. Major renovations at Lake Tanko were meant to help improve the water quality and fish habitat. We will be increasing the depth of the lake up to 15 feet in some areas. Read More

In addition to a public water supply source, the lake offers many... Read More
The objectives of this project are: Stabilize eroding shoreline Reduce nutrients and silt entering the lake Improve angler access Increase rock type fish habitat Increase wood type fish habitat Improve riparian buffer Read More
This project is proposed to create biological habitat, inhibit shoreline erosion on highly eroded areas, inhibit mobilization of sediment and nutrients, and reintroduce native plants to an area invaded by common reed. The benefits expected include: increased complexity and diversity of habitat for fish and other wildlife, decreased turbidity, siltation,... Read More
The goals of this project are to introduce long-lasting structural and biological habitat, inhibit shoreline erosion on highly eroded areas, inhibit mobilization of sediment and nutrients, and maintain connectivity of coves to the main lake. The benefits expected include; increased complexity and diversity of habitat for fish and other wildlife,... Read More
