On the edge of the Nebraska sand hills is Lake McConaughy, a 22-mile-long reservoir that in summer becomes a magnet for Winnebagos, fishermen and kite sailors. But officials here in Keith County, population 8,370, have long imagined a different scenario: an al-Qaida sleeper cell hitching explosives onto a water skiing boat and plowing into the dam at the head of the lake.

The federal Department of Homeland Security a few years ago gave the county $42,000 to buy state-of-the-art dive gear, including full-face masks, underwater lights and radios, and a Zodiac boat with side-scan sonar capable of mapping wide areas of the lake floor. Cherry County, Neb., population 6,148, got thousands of federal dollars for cattle nose leads, halters and electric prods in case terrorists decided to mount biological warfare against cows.

A decade after the Sept. 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, federal and state governments are spending about $75 billion a year on domestic security, setting up sophisticated radio networks, upgrading emergency medical response equipment, installing surveillance cameras and bomb-proof walls and outfitting airport screeners to detect an ever-evolving list of mobile explosives.
