OSCEOLA RESERVOIR, MISSOURI RIVER BASIN, MO. Location. The proposed dam site for the Osceola Reservoir is located on the Osage River in Missouri, 233 miles above the mouth of the stream, in St. Clair County. The site is about 1 mile southwest of Osceola, Mo., and 90 miles southeast of Kansas City, Mo. Existing project.-Preliminary project plans provide for the construction of a dam rising approximately 119 feet above the stream bed and having a total length of about 3,000 feet. These preliminary plans provide for a reservoir storage capacity of about 6,000,000 acre-feet, of which 4,100,000 acre-feet would he for flood control, 173,000 acre-feet for silting allowance, and 1,727,000 acre-feet primarily for conservation storage. This project is one unit of the general comprehensive plan for flood control and other purposes in the Missouri River Basin authorized by the Flood Control Act approved June 28, 1938 (Flood Control Committee Document No. 1, 75th Cong., 1st sess.) as modified hv the Flood Control Act of August 18, 1941 (H. Doc. No. 842, 76th Cong., 3d sess.) and expanded by the Flood Control Act approved December 22, 1944 (H. Doc. No. 475, and S. Docs. Nos. 191 and 247, 78th Cong., 2d sess.). The estimated cost, as contained in House Document No. 475, Seventy-eighth Congress, second session, is $28,500,000. Local cooperation.-Section 2 of the Flood Control Act approved June 28, 1938, applies. Operations and results during fiscal year.-Preliminary project plans were completed during the fiscal year by hired labor at a cost of $48,153.33. Work in connection with the preparation of detailed construction plans was initiated under contract at a cost of $75,969, together with work by hired labor at a cost of $61,231.71. The total cost during the fiscal year was $185,354.04, and the total expenditures were $181,291.48, all from regular funds. Condition at end of fiscal year.-Preliminary project plans have been completed and work on the preparation of detailed plans for construction of the project was in progress under contracts for architect-engineer services and by hired labor at a total cost of $299,612.13 and expenditures of $288,411.74, all from regular funds. Proposed operations.-The unexpended balance of $241,588.26 will be applied during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1946, as follows: The additional sum of $3,000,000 can be profitably expended during the fiscal years 1946 and 1947 ($1,000,000 of this amount in 1946) for the initiation of construction of the dam and relocations.

CHARITON RIVER, MO. 3, 000, 000.00 Location. The Chariton River rises near Osceola in southcentral Iowa and flows in easterly and southeasterly directions. approximately 140 miles to the Iowa-Missouri State line, thence south approximately 138 miles to its confluence with the Missouri River about 7 miles above Glasgow, Mo. The drainage basin of the Chariton River is approximately 150 miles long and 25 miles wide. Existing project. The plan of improvement in general contemplates drainage and protection works consisting principally of the construction of levees, clearing and enlarging of the river channel and the construction of cut-offs and drainage ditches for three project units, which are designated as follows: Chariton County unit, Macon-Adair Counties unit, and Reinhart Ranch Channel Cut-off unit. The Flood Control Act approved December 22, 1944 (H. Doc. No. 628, 78th Cong., 2d sess.) authorized the existing project at an estimated construction cost of $1,610,300. The estimated cost of lands and damages to be borne by local interests is $159,205. The units involve construction approximately as follows: Chariton County unit.-Preliminary plans provide for levees. cut-offs, clearing and enlarging the existing channel of the Chariton River, and construction of a pumping plant for removal of excessive interior drainage during high stages of the Missouri River. Macon-Adair Counties unit.-Preliminary plans for the work contemplated under this unit provide for construction of cutoffs and improving sections of the existing channel and the construction of necessary bridges across the new channel. Reinhart Ranch Channel Cut-off unit.-Under preliminary plans, the proposed works consist principally of the construction of a cut-off channel through the Reinhart Ranch and the construction of a bridge to provide access from one part of the ranch to another, as the new channel will divide the ranch into two parts. Local cooperation.-See page 5 for requirements, which have not as yet been requested. Local interests, however, have indicated an interest in the initiation of the project. Operations and results during fiscal year. The preparation of project plans for the Macon-Adair Counties and Reinhart Ranch Channel Cut-off units and that part of the Chariton County unit relating to channel improvement was initiated by hired labor during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1945, at a total cost of $639.80. Condition at end of fiscal year.-Project plans for the MaconAdair Counties and Reinhart Ranch Channel Cut-off units and the channel improvement features of the Chariton County unit were in process of preparation. The total cost of the existing project, all new work, at the end of the fiscal year was $639.80. No expenditures were made. Proposed operations.-The unexpended balance of $20,000 of regular funds will be applied during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1946, as follows: Accounts payable New work (July 1, 1945 to June 30, 1946): By hired labor, completion of project plans___.
