Attendees at a public hearing on a plan to strengthen the structural integrity of a dam on Lake Lowell in Idaho said the money would be better spent elsewhere, the Idaho Press-Tribune reported.

Opponents said the proposed measures wouldn’t keep determined terrorists from breaching the dam and the estimated $8.4 million cost would be better spent elsewhere.
