Chikaskia Project, Kansas and Oklahoma - (See Map 1) The investigation evaluates the feasibility of a multiple-purpose reservoir of the Corbin site on the Chikaskia River to provide high-quality water primarily for municipal and industrial water requirements but consideration will be given to other potential needs of the area including irrigation, recreationt fish and wildlife and flood control. The studies made under the Arkansas- White-Red River Basin investigations indicated potential develop- ment of the water in the Chikaskia River. Further reconnaissance investigations were made and a report completed in 1955. In Fiscal Year 1966 feasbility-grade investigations were begun and a draft report was completed and distributed for informal review in Fiscal Year 1967.
