Description

This letter, dated October 2, 1952, from Laura Page Knudson on behalf of United States (US) Representative Usher Burdick to Selma H. Stenerson of the Hunt Oil Company in Dallas, Texas, refers to a request dated September 26 received from Stenerson. Knudsen writes that she is sending a copy of Burdick's brief, "Concerning the Legal Authority for the Building of the Garrison Dam at Garrison, North Dakota," but that Burdick's office has no maps of the area to be flooded, and recommends Stenerson request a July, 1950 booklet titled "The Corps of Engineers in North Dakota," which has maps and pictures of the Garrison Dam project, from the US Army Corps of Engineers.
