<br />SUMMARY <br /> <br />Summary of Road Relocations <br /> <br />The FES stated a need for 15 miles of relocated rosds. Revised <br />relocations plus construction of the Wasatch County road would require <br />32.9 miles of roads, as shown in the table below. <br /> <br />Changes in road miles <br />Road 1979 1986 <br />U.S. Highway 40 9.0 9.8 <br />U.S. Highway 1891/ 5.5 11.8 <br />County road N~/ 9.8 <br />O&M roads 0.5 1.5 <br />Total 15.0 32.9 <br />1/ Selected northern route C alternative. <br />2/ NA = not applicable. <br /> <br />Outlet works <br /> <br />The spillway, multiple-level outlet, and outlet tunnels would be re- <br />located from the right to the left, or east, abutment of the dam because <br />of greater foundation stability. In order to bypass a potential slide <br />area, the spillway and outlet tunnels would be about 1,000 to 1,200 feet <br />longer than the 2,400- to 2,500-foot-long tunnels in the FES, requiring <br />a manmade channel to convey reservoir releases back to the Provo River. <br /> <br />Reservoir management boundary <br /> <br />Some adjustments to the reservoir boundary are necessary to accom- <br />modate proposed changes in road relocation, the proposed relocation of <br />Jordanelle Dam outlet works, and the role the reservoir management bound- <br />ary will have in the preservation of water quality in Jordanelle Reser- <br />voir. The net effect of these and other minor changes would be to in- <br />crease the management boundary area by about 50 acres over that recom- <br />mended in the FES. Other minor changes in the boundary may result during <br />acquisition negotiations. However, no change will be permitted which <br />would adversely impact water quality protection or result in any signifi- <br />cant adverse impact. <br /> <br />Fishery mitigation/recreation plan <br /> <br />In response to local concerns, the recreation component which in- <br />cludes river floating would be excluded from the fishery mitigation/ <br />recreation plan described in the FES. In order for Reclamation to meet <br />its fishery mitigation requirements, public access to the reach of the <br />Provo River between the Jordanelle Damsite and Deer Creek Reservoir <br />would be modified as follows: <br /> <br />1. Foot access would be provided for anglers only. <br /> <br />2. Access will be acquired for fisherman use through fee <br />title or easement at such time as a managing agency is <br />identified. <br /> <br />S-8 <br />
