The Missouri Department of Natural Resources and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Kansas City District, will hold a public meeting to provide information and solicit input from the public on a feasibility study to address problems on the Osage River on March 14, 2023, from 4-7 p.m. at the Tuscumbia High School gymnasium, 526 School Rd., Tuscumbia, MO 65082. Over time, stream bank erosion and other issues along the Osage River have led to sedimentation of important aquatic habitat, including threatened and endangered mussel beds. Impacts also include loss of stream bank vegetation and valuable farmland, threats to private and commercial infrastructure and lost habitat connectivity. Public safety concerns associated with decreased river channel stability are also an issue.
