<br />New Construction Items: <br /> <br />Northwest Drop Structure <br /> <br />The original design of the new outlet channel included the installation of several culverts through <br />the dike of Bob Creek to convey storm water into the new channel. During staking of the outlet channel it <br />became apparent, however, that a different approach would be required. It was determined that a single <br />discharge point would be the best solution, consisting of a 1,000 cfs design, 45-ft. wide armored drop <br />structure. <br /> <br />Added Cost: $36,000 <br /> <br />Standbv Generators: <br /> <br />The Company is requesting the funding for two standby generators at the new outlet structure to <br />provide security and provide uninterrupted use of the outlets during power failures. The standby generators <br />will be Onan 10 kw units with automatic transfer switches powered by propane. The cost for each <br />generator is $6,000. <br /> <br />Added Cost: $12,000 <br /> <br />Automation of Existing Outlet Structure: <br /> <br />Costs were included in the original feasibility report for equipment to permit remote operation of the <br />new outlet gates. The Reservoir Company is requesting additional funding to provide remote operation of <br />the existing outlet gates south of the reservoir. It is expected that both outlet structures will be used to <br />meter water from the reservoir at different times of the year. The existing outlet structure may be used <br />when the reservoir is filling so that water can be stored in the new channel. At other times, particularly <br />during maintenance activities the new outlet structure will be used to release flows through the dry channel. <br />Automation of both gates will allow the Reservoir Company to provide constant flow at the discharge <br />flume located several miles south of the reservoir. <br /> <br />The proposed equipment includes communication and control equipment, and computer software <br />and hardware. <br /> <br />Added Cost: $47,000 <br /> <br />New Outlet Structure Added Cost <br /> <br />Bids were received from three Contractors for construction of the new outlet structure with the low <br />bid being $433,455. The original cost estimate was $400,000. The additional expense beyond the original <br />budget is due to higher concrete and sluice gate costs and running Y2 mile of power line to the outlet <br />structure by the power company. <br /> <br />Added Cost: $33,455 <br /> <br />Flood Protection.
