A Fish and Wildlife Survey of the Minnesota River Near New Ulm

This survey report examines an area proposed for dam and reservoir development by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. It describes the project area (physiography, hydrography, climatology, hydrology, land use, and commercial features), its fish and wildlife resources, and the probable effect of the project on fish and wildlife. The recommendation is made to explore alternatives because of the potential for damage to habitat and increase in erosion. Maps depicting marsh types are appended.
