1.1. Background: Stockton Lake is a flood control reservoir located on the Sac River in southwest Missouri, tucked into the foothills of the scenic Ozark Mountain range. The lake spans three county boundaries:
Cedar, Dade, and Polk. It is approximately 50 miles northwest of the metropolitan area of Springfield, Missouri, and approximately 130 miles south of Kansas City, MO. A map of Stockton Lake can be found on the Internet at: http://www.nwk.usace.army.mil/st/.
Stockton Lake provides flood protection for downstream areas and is part of a network of Corps of Engineer Lakes that help control flooding in the Missouri and Mississippi River basins.

Stockton Lake encompasses approximately 25,000 acres of surface water. Federal land surrounding Stockton Lake totals 36,047 acres, of which 16,572 acres are leased to the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) for management. Land management practices used by the Corps of Engineers and MDC are engineered to preserve their natural value, providing benefits to the nation in areas of flood damage reduction,
recreation, fish and wildlife management, hydroelectric power, and water quality improvement.

Eight parks around the lake are managed and maintained by the Corps of Engineers. These parks include roads, utility systems, campsites, beaches, boat ramps, picnic grounds, and playground areas. In addition to Corps-managed areas, the Corps also maintains active lease agreements with the Missouri Department of Natural Resources and private entities. The lessees provide a full range of marina services, restaurants,
and camping to the public. Additional services contracted to the private sector include mowing, refuse collection, facility cleaning, and park attendant. The Corps manages the contracts and conducts inspections to insure that the services are provided for visitors to the lake.
