6. MIDDLESBORO, CUMBERLAND RIVER BASIN, KY.

Location. This project is located at Middlesboro, Ky., on Yellow Creek, a tributary entering the Cumberland River about 660 miles above its mouth.

Existing project. The plan of improvement provides for the construction of a system of canals and levees around one side of the town, arranged so as to divert most of the headwaters of Yellow Creek away from the present channel through the heart of the city The series of canals and levees are about 4 miles in length, begir ning on Bennetts Fork at the western edge of the town and ending at Yellow Creek near the United States Leather Co. tannery at the northern edge of the town. The cuts involved excavation of ap proximately 695,000 cubic yards of material, of which about 410.000 cubic yards were utilized in the levee system. Besides con struction of the diversion channel, there was other incidental work which included the installation of culverts and the relocation and rebuilding of roadways and bridges. The construction of this project will divert from the business district and from a large part of the residential section the flood waters which originate in that part of the basin lying north and west of the city, thus affording protection, in a large measure, to life and property from these headwater floods which cause the greatest damage. The project was authorized by the Flood Control Act approved June 22, 1936 The estimated cost of new work, revised in 1940, is $811,500.

Local cooperation.-Section 2 of the Flood Control Act approved June 28, 1938, applies.

Operations and results during fiscal year.-No new work was ccomplished. Final settlement was made with the city of Midlesboro in connection with the acquisition and transfer to the nited States of remaining flowage easements. The costs for new ork were $8,886.24.

Maintenance.-Levees, canals and appurtenances were mainained by hired labor. The project was operated successfully roughout the year without appreciable flood damage to any of he structures. The costs of maintenance were $6,383.80.

The expenditures were $15,597.87, all from regular funds. Condition at end of fiscal year.-All construction work has been ompleted and substantially all rights-of-way and easements have een acquired by the city of Middlesboro and transferred to the United States. The flood control capacity of the project has not een appreciably taxed since completion of the project.

The total costs to June 30, 1945, were $827,140.80, of which 817,829.98, including $38,876.31 Emergency Relief Funds, was or new work and $9,310.82 for maintenance. The total expendiures were $827,124.37, including $38,876.31 from Emergency elief funds.
