THURSDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1953 THE WINONA REPUBLICAN-HERALD, W1NONA, MINNESOTA Page 3 Engineers Board OKs Crooked Slough Project $223,000 Would Be Spent Developing Commercial Harbor The Board of Engineers for Riv ers and Harbors today favorably recommended a $223,000 project for the commercial development of I Crooked Slough at Winona. Principal document considered at a hearing this morning in Washington was the survey report of the St. Paul District and St. Louis Division recommending the project to Congress, with a contribution of $83,500 by local interests. Filed, too, was a letter from City Engineer W.

0. Cribbs on behalf of the City Council. The letter asked the board to consider that in the dredging of the Crooked Slough flood dike a year ago. the hydraulic fill was taken from channel, thereby reducing the scope of the harbor development project. Cribbs points out that 260,412 cubic yards of fill were taken from the channel, which was not always the most conveniently located fill.

Cost of the flood dike fill was .424 cents a yard, or $110,414. The survey report itself indicates that the city is in favor of the project, and' Cribbs' letter is intended to reduce the amount of the local contribution. Congressman August H. Andresen, who has been pressing the matter for the city of Winona, called The Republican-Herald at 1:30 this afternoon from Washington with the announcement that the Board of Engineers, in favorably recommending the project, support- Lester R.
