    Supplemental Environmental Assessment
    (United States. Army Corps of Engineers. St. Paul District (U.S.), 2013-09) United States. Army Corps of Engineers. St. Paul District (U.S.)
    The Red River basin in eastern North Dakota and along the western Minnesota border has a long history of flooding due to the unique hydrology of the area. Three large rivers, the Red River of the North, the Wild Rice River (ND), and the Sheyenne River, converge in the Fargo-Moorhead metropolitan area and contribute to extensive flooding. The Federally Recommended Plan (FRP) for the flood risk management project consists of a 36-mile diversion channel (six miles of which is a connecting channel) around the west side of the city of Fargo, a staging area, and approximately 12 miles of tie-back levees. The FRP is described as the Locally Preferred Plan (LPP) in the Final Feasibility Report and Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) dated July 2011; a Record of Decision was signed on April 3, 2012.

    Wild Rice Dam Removal Mitigation Project
    (United States. Army Corps of Engineers. St. Paul District (U.S.), 10/1/2014) United States. Army Corps of Engineers. St. Paul District (U.S.)
    The St. Paul District, Corps of Engineers, has prepared this assessment of the environmental effects that may result from the proposed dam removal at the Wild Rice Dam on the Wild Rice River, Cass County, North Dakota. This assessment of the Corps of Engineers proposal is required by the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), the Council on Environmental Quality Regulations (40 CFR 1500-1508), and the Corps of Engineers Procedures for Implementing NEPA (33 CFR Part 230).

    Final Feasibility Report and Environmental Impact Statement
    (United States. Army Corps of Engineers. St. Paul District (U.S.), 2011-07) United States. Army Corps of Engineers. St. Paul District (U.S.)
    This Final Feasibility Report and Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) documents the analysis of alternatives developed to reduce flood risk in the entire Fargo-Moorhead Metropolitan area. The Selected Plan is the Locally Preferred Plan (LPP) and includes a North Dakota diversion channel (20,000 cfs), upstream storage and staging, associated structures, non-structural features, recreation features and environmental mitigation.

    Through Flood Damage Reduction Area
    (United States. Army Corps of Engineers. St. Paul District (U.S.), 7/16/2012) Houston-Moore Group
    The purpose of this study is to evaluate options for increasing the flow and resultant residual Red River of the North flood stage through the flood damage reduction area as an alternative environmental mitigation project to the proposed fish passages on the Red and Wild Rice River control structures. This study evaluates River Stages (RS) beyond the approximately RS 31 feet planned for in the Integrated Final Feasibility Report and the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FR/FEIS) dated July 2011. This plan is now known as the Federally Recommended Plan (FRP).

    Oxbow Hickson Bakke Ring Levee, Technical Memorandum
    (Flood Diversion Authority, 3/12/2013) Houston-Moore Group
    Operation of the Fargo Moorhead Diversion results in the staging of flood water upstream of the Cities of Fargo and Moorhead, including the City of Oxbow, the Village of Hickson, and Bakke Subdivision. The feasibility study and subsequent cost estimate related to a value engineering proposal include costs to purchase all structure in the staging area resulting in a total buyout of the Oxbow, Hickson, and Bakke (OHB) area.

    Final Supplemental Environmental Assessment #2
    (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, 2019-02) United States. Army Corps of Engineers. St. Paul District (U.S.)
    2019 revision of the Supplemental Environmental Assessment. The Red River basin in eastern North Dakota and western Minnesota has a long history of flooding due to the unique hydrology and topography of the area. The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) completed the Final Feasibility Report and Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for the Fargo-Moorhead Metropolitan Area Flood Risk Management Project (Project) in July 2011. This document focuses primarily on the modifications to the alignment of the Southern Embankment and the passage of more flow through town during project operation.

    Final Technical Memorandum; Diversion inlet gate analysis
    (Flood Diversion Authority, 10/1/2013) Houston-Moore Group
    The proposed FM Diversion begins approximately 4 miles south (upstream) of the confluence of the Red and Wild Rice Rivers and extends west around the cities of Horace, Fargo, West Fargo, and Harwood. The 36 mile long diversion channel crosses several rivers. The project includes gated control structures at the Red and Wild Rice Rivers. It has aqueducts at the Sheyenne and Maple Rivers that allow low tributary flows to enter the interior of the project area while larger flows would be passed into the diversion. The diversion channel also crosses the Rush and Lower Rush Rivers as well as several drains. The diversion channel ultimately discharges into the Red River downstream from the Red River’s confluence with the Sheyenne River near the city of Georgetown, MN
