Once-in-a-generation Missouri River study seeks public input

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Kansas City District and Omaha District, announced today it will host a series of public meetings to provide updates and gather public input on the Lower Missouri River Basin Flood Risk and Resiliency Study. The study is a comprehensive effort to analyze and recommend improvements for flood risk management and other water resource-related issues along the 498 miles of the Lower Missouri River. This initiative was prompted by the historic and devastating flooding of 2019. That event resulted in record runoff and billions of dollars in damage across the region.
