St. Regis Indian Reservation, Beaver Meadow Creek, Improved Drainage Study

Abstract

This report presents the Corps' assessment of flooding of Beaver Meadow Road on the St. Regis Indian Reservation near Hogansburg, N.Y. In addition, the report provides the Corps' preliminary design of five possible plans of improvement which were based on the needs expressed by the St. Regis Mohawk Tribe and designed using available approximate topographic and survey data. The primary need of the tribe is for the reduced frequency of flooding of Beaver Meadow Road. A secondary concern is for improved drainage upstream of Beaver Meadow Road to facilitate agricultural or residential development. Therefore, of the five plans of improvement presented, three plans (1,2, and 3) would provide for reduced road flooding only, while two plans (4 and 5) would provide both road protection and improved upstream land drainage.
