[QUOTE="riverrunner5891, post: 247482, member: 7889"] I have to disagree here (especially on this instance). While the land is beautiful and so is the river, there are PLENTY of local rivers here within a short drive, plus the river that would be below the dam. Also, the local river that would have been affected by this project is so shallow at times in certain places that even a canoe has to be picked up and walked distances late in the summer. A lake would have provided a normal flow of water, plus hydroelectricity and large tourism dollars. It was all about the money already invested in other venues close by that kept it from happening. Now you ask me the same thing about the Gasconade, Osage, Current, or Black rivers and I will agree 100% that they are too perfect to be dammed up. The Meramec though needs a good dredge or pool it up! [/QUOTE]
