dc.descriptionThe Devils Lake Basin is a 3,814 square mile area in north central North Dakota. The drainage pattern of the basin, which is a closed basin, includes numerous streams, some of which interconnect shallow lakes along their lower reaches. The flowage finally empties into Devils Lake in the southern part of the drainage area. This drainage damages crops and land in the Devils Lake Basin. As the results of several substantial floods in the decades around this article's writing, the need to develop a comprehensive plan for water and land use management for the basin that would take into account everyone's interests was cited. A study to analyze the economy of the Devils Lake Basin and to access the economic dimensions are being collected to provide an overview of the region and sub-region economics and trends that were occurring. These dimensions were employment, income, land use, transportation networks, agricultural production patterns, recreational activities, the location of the centers of trade and federal expenditures. The study was to include both past and present perspectives.
