∙ 12y agoThe primary body of water in South Dakota is the Missouri River. There are four lakes formed by dams on the Missouri River: Lewis and Clark Lake, Lake Francis Case, Lake Sharpe, and Lake Oahe.
Major rivers are the James River, Vermillion River, and Big Sioux River because most drainage leaves the state of South Dakota through these rivers plus the Missouri. Other prominent rivers in South Dakota include the Cheyenne River and the Grand River.
Lake Thompson is the most substantial natural lake in South Dakota. Other major lakes in South Dakota include Traverse Lake, Big Stone Lake, and Waubay Lake.

∙ 12y agoA list of North Dakota riivers must begin with the Missouri river and be followed by the Red River of the North. All the rest are of secondary importance and are rarely given any notice except at flood season when they are contributing factors to the natural disaster problems of the state. Devils lake is the largest natural lake in the state and Lake Sakakawea is the largest man made lake.
The Souris river became well known in 2011 for the floodiing it caused in Minot. North Dakota received $1.2 biillion in federal funding and Minot received above half of the funds. The Sheyenne river which empties into the Red River of the North has been targeted for fllood mitigation for years but funding is not available and Fargo willl certainly suffer again as a result.
