Abstract:

In the fall of 1977, the St. Paul District of the Corps of Engineers planned to put some rock fill along the northern edge of Homme Dam and Reservoir to stabilize the bank. Since this construction was in proximity of the reunion site 32WA400, and intensive examination of the site was undertaken. the shore in the area of the site is presently protected by a rock wall. Erosion should not be a problem in the area of the site. Even if such unlikely erosion were to take place, the site is not worthy of protection. Damage to the site has been the result of farm related activities, and not from the Corps of Engineer projects. Author
