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.en-USFlood control.Flood damage protection -- North Dakota -- Fargo.Water diversion.Red River of the North.Flood damage prevention -- Minnesota -- Moorhead.Technical Report
