South Branch Kishwaukee River Near: DeKalb County, Illinois

Abstract

Significant flooding problems exist along the East Branch of the South Branch of the Kishwaukee River. This study identified three alternative, nonstructural plans which warrant further study to alleviate the flood problems. However, the DeKalb County Board of Supervisors rescinded their local cooperation agreement because of the high non-Federal costs. Further Federal action has been terminated. (Author)
