On The Cover: The Dover Dam
The Dover Dam, one of a series of 16 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers flood control dams in the Muskingum River basin. The only concrete dam in the system recently underwent a $60 million safety-assurance project to stabilize the 80-year-old flood-control structure. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers operates the dam; the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District provided the local cost share for the project; and Brayman Construction Corp. of Pennsylvania, was in charge of the project. Much of the funding for the project was due to royalties from the gas/oil industry. OhioGas&Oil
