This report describes the results of a pilot study of damages in 11 Great Lakes counties for the high water period 1972-1974. The program's purpose of the pilot program was to develop a reliable and inexpensive reconnaissance data collection method, to initiate coordination between the Corps of Engineers and responsible state and local agencies, and to gather the damage data for the 11 counties. The pilot program helped demonstrate how to streamline some of the data collection methods and pointed out ways to substitute for or eliminate other activities.
