The assessments examined <br />the costs for a variety of dam heights and water volumes. We have also developed <br />tables of earthwork quantities and storage capacities for each site. As you will <br />see in the reports at this time the Lost Hunter does not look to be feasible for <br />renovation, but the Sheepsdrive might be. In terms of total cost, cost per acre <br />foot and Forest Service environment concerns, the Sheepsdrive is more feasible <br />than the Lost Hunter. The cost per acre foot for the Sheepsdrive to store about <br />50 acre feet is about $2,000. This is still higher than the Association feels <br />is feasible. We might be able to reduce those costs some depending on the State <br />Engineer's hazard rating for the structure. The Division of Wildlife is <br />researching what funds might be available for assistance if a fishing pool was <br />included in the renovation. We are continuing to work on the regulatory aspects <br />of the Sheepsdrive site and will provide the Association with an update on our <br />findings as we get answers and information back from the Forest Service, State <br />Engineer, and Division of Wildlife. <br /> <br />If you have any questionfJ or need further information please feel free to contact <br />me or Tom Alvey. Thank you for your assistance with this project. <br /> <br />?~e~ <br /> <br />cc: LeRoux Creek Water Users Association <br /> <br />P.O. BOX 738 · DELTA, COLOM-OO 81416 <br />
