Abstract
Effective improvement of economic and social conditions of Indians living on Crow Creek and Lower Brule Reservations has been hampered by lack of adequate and reliable information about the quantity and quality of water supplies available for development. Compounding the problem, and making especially pressing the need for discovery and development of new water supplies, is the recent filling of Fort Randall and Big Bend Reservoirs on the Missouri River, and the consequent relocation of may residents. Much of the best land and known water supplies are inundated beneath the reservoirs. This report summarized the results of a water-resources study made at the request of the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs.
