downstream power stations resulting
from the regulated flow from the Beaver
Lake project.
2. Study Location: The Beaver Lake
Civil Works project on the White River
is situated in northwest Arkansas
(Benton, Carroll, Madison, and
Washington counties). The total area
contained in the Beaver project,
including both land and water surface,
consists of 38,138 acres, including 1,432
acres in flowage easement. The region is
characterized by plateaus, ridges, and
valleys featuring oak-hickory forests
with scattered shortleaf pine. When the
lake is at the top of the conservation
pool, the water area comprises 28,252
acres and 473 miles of shoreline within
fee. The shoreline is irregular with
topography ranging from steep bluffs to
gentle slopes.
3. Study History: The Beaver Lake
Master Plan was originally approved
December 13, 1963. An updated Master
Plan was approved in October 1969.
There have been 23 supplements to this
plan, all of which are incorporated into
the current Master Plan, approved in
April 1976. The Beaver Lake Shoreline
Management Plan was first approved in
October 1975 and revised to the
currently approved plan in April 2008.
Updates to these plans are necessary
due to several factors, including updates
in Corps policies/regulations, current
and projected future demands on fixed
resources, and increases in
environmental and management issues
that have created sustainability
concerns.
