Description
Summary of the damage from a flood in the Moapa Valley on March 3-5, 1938
Transcribed Notes: Transcribed from handwritten text on pg. 3: "West of the Flood Channel and on west side of Highway except for a few acres west of Highway and East of Channel in Logandale above point where Highway bridge crosses Channel. # 10 acres early vegetables were silted over lightly making them unfit for shipment. About 5-10 acres will need re-leveling. One of the most important aspects of the entire experience, that of the supervisory personnel getting this lesson which could not be learned without just such an object lesson."
