The purpose of a reconnaissance study is to provide an overview of the water and related land resource problems and needs within a particular geographic area, to identify planning objectives, to assess potential solutions and problems, to determine problems, to determine priorities for immediate and longrange action, and to identify the capabilities of various governmental units for implementing the actions. The information developed in this report has been combined with information developed in the other subbasin reports to produce a main report covering the basin as a whole. The various flood control measures discussed in this and in other subbasin reports are combined in the main report to develop the outline of an integrated flood control plan for the basin within the context of a comprehensive plan. The Main Stem Subbasin is an irregular-shaped area that occupies 2,477 square miles of Minnesota and North Dakota. The subbasin includes all of the land which drains directly into the Red River main stem. Drainage areas at the confluence of the Main Stem and its tributaries are undifferentiated; hence, the Main Stem boundaries as defined are arbitrary delineations in the sense that part of the land in most of the other subbasins could be included in the main Stem Subbasin.

The Rush River Subbasin is the smallest of the subbasins, occupying 304 square miles in the southern North Dakota portion of the Red River Basin. Actually, the Rush River Subbasin is not a subbasin to the Red River, since the Rush River empties into the Sheyenne River about six miles before the latter's confluence with the Red River. The subbasin is located entirely within Cass County and is bordered on the north by the Elm and Main Stem subbasins and on the east, west, and south by the Maple River Subbasin. Although various water resource agencies have authority in the area, the subbasin does not itself have a legal status.

It is bordered on the north by the Pembina River Subbasin, on the south by the Forest River subbasin, on the east by the Main Stem Subbasin, and on the west by the Devils Lake Subbasin.

The Sand Hill River Subbasin is a thin rectangle about eight miles wide and 55 miles long that encompasses 484 square miles of the central Minnesota portion of the Red River Basin, including parts of Polk, Norman, and Mahnomen counties. It is one of the smallest subbasins and is sandwiched between the Red River Subbasin on the north and east, the Wild Rice-Marsh River Subbasin on the south, and the Main Stem Subbasin on the west. The subbasin has attained a legal status through the formation of the Sand Hill River Watershed District in 1975.

The Wild Rice River Subbasin occupies 2,233 square miles of the extreme southwest portion of the Red River Basin. The subbasin is comprised of portions of four counties in North Dakota, including Ramsom, Sargent, Richland and Cass counties. In addition, portions of Marshall and Roberts County in South Dakota are included in the study area. The subbasin is bordered on the north by the Sheyenne River Subbasin and to the east and south by the Main Stem and Bois de Sioux-Mustinka River Subbasin, respectively.

The Snake River Subbasin occupies 464 square miles of the northern Minnesota portion of the Red River Basin. It is one of the smaller subbasins, but occupies portions of three counties: Marshall, Polk, and Pennington. It is bordered on the north by the Middle River Subbasin, on the east by the Red River Subbasin, and on the south and west by the Main Stem Subbasin. Since the Middle River to the north is a tributary to the Snake, a small portion of the Snake River Subbasin curves above the Middle River Subbasin. The area has achieved a legal status through the formation of the Middle River-Snake River Watershed District; but, as the name of the District indicates, the Snake River Subbasin is not a separable legal entity.

The Two Rivers Subbasin occupies 1,112 squares miles of the northern Minnesota portion of the Red River Basin and includes portions of Kittson and Roseau counties. It is bordered on the north and easy by the Roseau River Subbassin (which extends into Canada), on the southeast by the Tamarac River Subbasin, and on the west, northwest, and southwest by the Main Stem Subbasin. The northern edge is generally within 2.5 miles of the U.S.-Canadian boundary for 20 miles in the north-central part of Kittson County. The subbasin has achieved a legal status as a water resource planning unit through the formation of the Two Rivers Watershed District in 1957.

The Elm River Subbasin is an irregularly shaped piece of land occupying 510 square miles of the central North Dakota portion of the Red River Basin. It is one of the smallest of the subbasins, occupying portions of three counties: Cass, Traill, and Steele. Most of the area is a featureless lake plain broken by wavelike swells or beachlines wth intervening sloughs and depressions. It has a claim to distinction in that it is almost totally under cultivation (94%).

The purpose of a reconnaissance study is to provide an overview of the water and related land resource problem sand needs within a particular geographic area, to identify /planning objectives, to assess potential solutions and problems, to determine priorities for immediate and longrange action, and to identify the capabilities of various governmental units for implementing the actions. The information developed in this report has been combined with information developed in the other subbasin reports to produce a main report covering the basin as a whole. The various flood control measures discussed in this and in other subbasin reports are combined in the main report to develop the outline of an integrated flood control plan for the basin within the context of a comprehensive plan. The Pembina River Subbasin lies in the south-central portion of Manitoba Province in Canada and in the northeastern part of North Dakota in the United States. The subbasin length (east to west) is about 130 miles, and its width (north to south) varies from a maximum of about 35 miles in the western portion to about 18 miles in the eastern portion. The total area is approximately 3,950 square miles, of which about 50.3 percent is in Canada and 49.7 percent is in the United States. The United States portion includes parts of Rolette, Towner, Cavalier, and Pembina counties. It is bordered on the south by the Devils Lake and Park subbasins and on the east by the Main Stem Subbasin.
