Bid Awarded for Further Levee Repairs Along Missouri River
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) - The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has awarded
a $2 million contract for levee repair work along the Missouri
River in southwest Iowa and northwest Missouri.
The project includes placing large boulders, known as rip rap,
on the river side of new setback levees built near Hamburg, Iowa,
and Watson, Missouri following last summer's historic flooding. The
contract also includes installing a filter fabric to help reduce
the potential of erosion.
The work should be done by the end of July.
The contract was awarded to Western Contracting Corporation in
Sioux City, Iowa.
