Description: The Glovers Point Bend site located along the Missouri River, on the Winnebago Reservation in Woodbury County, Iowa; however, the land is located on the Nebraska side of the river.
- Original construction at this site consisted of reopening a side channel connecting it at both ends to the Missouri River; however, this is Iowa land on the Nebraska side of the river.
- Backwater areas were also constructed and connected to the downstream end of the side channel. After the 2011 record flood, repairs to Glover's Point consisted of removing flood deposited sediment from the constructed backwater to restore about 55-acres of shallow water habitat and provide overwintering holes for fish.
- Wood habitat structures were placed in the backwater area to increase habitat diversity and quality.
