The Gavins Point Dam
Gavins Point Dam is located west of Yankton, South Dakota. The Gavins Point Dam is owned by the army corp of engineers. Last summer the dam released a lot of water and flooded us. Now it is in controversy because of that event. People are wondering if Gavins Point dam will be shut down. Their decision to release more water will greatly effect South Dakota. The Missouri river was flooding down town Omaha earlier this summer. The water was so high that it covered over half of the statue of Lewis and Clark at the Lewis and Clark Landing.
