9. GRAND TOWER DRAINAGE AND LEVEE DISTRICT, ILLINOIS

Location. This project, in Jackson County, Ill., is on the left bank of the Mississippi River between river miles 75 and 84 above the Ohio River, and is bounded by Tower Island Chute and the Mississippi River on the west, Big Muddy River on the south and southeast, a line parallel to and including the Missouri Pacific railroad on the east and Fountain Bluff on the north.

Existing project. This provides for raising and enlarging the existing levee system by reconstruction of about 7.1 miles of riverfront levee, 4 miles of hack and flank levees and construction of 6.7 miles of new levees, together with necessary drainage structures. The project when completed will afford protection to the district against a flood of about 50-year frequency. The construction cost, revised in 1944, is $880,000. The project was authorized by the Flood Control Act approved June 28, 1938.

Local cooperation.-See page 5. Forms of assurance of local cooperation have not as yet been requested.

Operations and results during fiscal year.-No work was done on the project.

Condition at end of fiscal year.-No work has been done on the project.

Proposed operations.-The balance unexpended at the end of the fiscal year will be applied as follows:

New work:

By contract, raising and enlarging existing levees, and con-
structing new levees, June 1, 1946, to June 30, 1946
Preparation of construction plans and specifications for raising
and enlarging existing levees, and for constructing new
levees, by hired labor

Total for all work

$70,000

30,000

100, 000

The additional sum of $780,000 can be profitably expended during fiscal year 1947 for raising and enlarging existing levees, and constructing new levees. It is expected that, with the proposed expenditures, the project will be completed, except for raising railroad grades at levee crossings, for which no estimates have been submitted.

The project, when completed, will afford protection to the district against a flood of about 50-year frequency. The construction cost, revised in 1944, is $3,561,000. The project was authorized by the Flood Control Act approved June 22, 1936.

Local cooperation.-See page 5.

Right-of-way data for the entire back levee, and the riverfront levee of district No. 3, were approved December 14, 1937, and June 3, 1938. Assurances of local cooperation for the proposed reconstruction to grade revised in 1944 have not been requested. Collection of right-ofway data for the riverfront levees of district Nos. 1 and 2 will be undertaken as needed.

Operations and results during fiscal year.-Plans and specifications were prepared for river-front levees of districts Nos. 1 and 2 by hired labor at cost of $115.03 from regular funds for new work. The expenditures were $89.63.

Condition at end of fiscal year.-Work under the existing project is about 16 percent complete. The total costs to June 30, 1945, were $542,735.96 from regular funds and $38,275.34 from Emergency Relief funds, all for new work, and total expenditures were $580,985.90.

Proposed operations.-The balance unexpended at the end of the fiscal year will be applied as follows:
