individuals.
The Missouri River
Basin Project reports were transferred to the Archive by Van D. Kelley,
Director of the Water Resources Research Institute in 2008.

BACKGROUND NOTE
The Water Resources
Research Institute was conceptualized in 1964 through the Water
Resources Act and began services on October 8, 1954, as an
administrative unit of South Dakota State University. In September,
1990, the Institute was placed under the administrative authority of the
College of Agriculture and Biological Sciences. The mission of the
Institute is to provide the leadership in coordinating the research and
training at the University and other affiliated educational institutions
and agencies across the state in the broad area of water resources. It
administers funds received from the U.S. Department of Interior, as made
available through the Water Resources Research Act of 1984 and from the
state of South Dakota. Funds received through these sources targeted
for research are directed toward solving state, regional, and national
water problems. Graduate research training, technology transfer, and
information transfer are services, which are provided through the
Institute.
The Water Resources
Research Institute also houses the Water Quality Laboratory. This
laboratory serves the needs of the people of the state by providing
analytical services for determination of inorganic constituents (and
some pesticides) in water.
SCOPE AND CONTENTS
NOTE
This collection is
composed
of departmental records of the Institute, as well as collected reports
dealing with the Missouri River Basin Project.
ARRANGEMENT of the
RECORDS
This collection is
arranged into two series: Departmental records and Missouri River Basin
Project collected reports.
SERIES I:
Departmental records, 1954, circa 1967, 1973, 1976
This series is
composed of material dealing with irrigation research conducted by the
institute in collaboration with the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment
Station. Included is a scrapbook detailing how research is conducted at
the Irrigation Research Farm near Redfield, South Dakota and an annual
report on research in soil management and irrigation in South Dakota.
Also included is a general information sheet requesting an operating
budget for the Water Resources Research Institute during the 1973 fiscal
year and a pamphlet detailing analytical services available through the
Institute. Folders are arranged in alphabetical order.
