What reading level is Reports of the State Engineer to the Board of Directors of Drainage District No book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Mississippi River, with a flood discharge of one million two hundred thousand to one million four hundred thousand cubic feet per second due to it, carries over or in its main bed from Ave sixths to nine tenths of its waters, losing one sixth to one tenth only into the swamps at high flood stage.
The Sacramento River, between Butte Slough and the mouth of Feather River, with a flood discharge of eighty thousand cubic feet per second due to it, carries through only thirty thousand, having lo...st into the back basins on its course nearly two thirds of its waters. There is no considerable obstruction to flood flow from shoals in this part of the river. The channel is narrow, has Arm banks, and is exceedingly crooked.
The floods rise to their maximum height in the upper portion of this division next below Butte Slough, and overtop levees three or four feet in height before the water is bank high at Knight's Landing twenty or thirty miles below.
Defects of the Sacramento River.
As before remarked, these divisions of the Sacramento River — from Butte Slough to the mouth of Feather River — are in need of some- thing more than the sweeping out of shoals.
