Grayson Lake To Hold Open House

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers

The US Army Corps of Engineers is holding an open house Saturday at Grayson Lake to give people a chance to see how the lake helps reduce flooding in the region. Michelle Mirus is a senior park ranger with the Corps…

"We are offering the public an opportunity to look inside the Grayson Lake dam intake structure…so that you can learn about how the Corp of Engineers helps to reduce negative impacts of flood damage. To go inside the intake structure of a dam…those opportunities aren’t usually there." -  Michelle Mirus

Mirus says there’s probably a lot of interest in flood control right now because of all the rain that has fallen in eastern Kentucky this spring and summer. She says the open house begins at noon and will also include information on water safety.
