Abstract

Lakes Huron and Michigan, if mean annual water elevation alone is considered, have been at less than the normal stage since 1888. These lakes were abnormally low in 1895 and in 1896. The Board of Engineers on Deep Waterways, in 1900, called attention to the depressed stage of the lake waters, giving the amount of the depression below what was then thought to be the normal at about 1 ft. for the preceding 15 years. At that time this depressed stage was attributed to certain natural and artificial changes that had been made at the head of St. Clair River, which is the outlet from the lakes.
