U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Louisville District personnel view debris and damage left behind in Squabble Creek, a tributary adjacent to the Buckhorn Dam tailwater in Buckhorn, Kentucky, Aug. 17, 2022. Southeast Kentucky received six to eight inches of rain during the evening of July 28, 2022, that resulted in the most catastrophic flooding event in the region’s recorded history. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Louisville District is playing a vital role in recovery efforts, providing support to the Commonwealth, and simultaneously cleaning up two of its own lake projects that withstood the flood and prevented millions of dollars in additional downstream damage.
