Minutes of Meetings No. 14 and 15 were read and approved. <br />2. A report received from Lonnie F. Thompson, State Watershed Leader, <br />concerning a reconnaissance survey of Coddle Creek, was read and <br />discussed. The report is as follows: <br />CODDLE CREEK WATERSHED <br />Iredell, Rowan and Cabarrus Counties, North Carolina <br />A reconnaissance survey of Coddle Creek was made on June 17, 1964 to <br />determine the probable feasibility as a PL 566 project. The following <br />information was obtained: <br />1. The headwaters of the watershed are in Iredell and Rowan Counties, <br />with about 12,000 acres in these two counties. There is about 31,000 <br />acres in Cabarrus County. <br />2. There is a rather wide flood plain above Public Road No. 1394. <br />Below this point the flood plain is very narrow. <br />3. It appears that two and at the most three floodwater retarding <br />structures could be justified. These structures would be in Cabarrus <br />County, near the county line. <br />4. Stream channels are almost completely filled with sediment. They <br />were dredged about 1913. The alignment is fairly good and channels <br />are reasonably clear of debris. <br />
