• <br />interruption of utilities necessitated by the project would- occur <br />at the Boyer Ranch as a result of constriction of the spillway. <br />3.28 The utilities necessary for operation of the dam, <br />electricity and telephone services, are available as far up the <br />valley as the Boyer Ranch. Thus, extension of these utilities to <br />the project would not be a major consideration. <br />CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE <br />3.29 Special considerations that would affect the work schedule <br />for the proposed Sandstone Dam and its auxiliary structures <br />include the elevation of the project and the expected climatic <br />conditions at that elevation. Considering the scope of work to <br />be performed, it is anticipated that construction work would take <br />three construction seasons to complete ($WEC, 1986a). <br />3.30 Following the spring flows of the first construction <br />season, work would be started on the diversion structures. .First <br />season work would alto include excavation end treatment of <br />abutment foundations. The diversion structures should be <br />completed by the beginning of the second season for immediate <br />access to the valley bottom section of the dam foundation. <br />During the second season, the foundation would be prepared- and <br />grouted, and construction of the embankment would continue until <br />winter weather forces a halt. During the third season, the <br />embankment would be completed, the diversion closed off, and the <br />reservoir would begin to store water. At the same time the <br />outfall structure and spillway with their stilling basins and <br />connecting channels would be completed. <br />• <br />3-10 <br />
