• <br />WORK FORCE REQUIREMENTS <br />3.31 Given the nature of this construction and the climate at <br />this elevation work force requirements would vary during and <br />between construction seasons (figure 3-2). During. the winter <br />months. (December through March), only a minimal force of 5-15 <br />persons would be required. A peak number of 90 workers would be <br />necessary in September and October of the first year of <br />construction. At this time, foundation excavation and treatments <br />would be in progress and cofferdam construction would be nearly <br />complete. Placement of the embankment would begin in April of <br />the second year requiring approximately 95 workers at the <br />beginning of the work season. A peak of 140-150 workers would be <br />necessary for most of the third work season (April through <br />October). The embankment and spillway would be completed at this <br />time and storage of water would commence in September. <br />3.32 It is expected that much of the work force would be drawn <br />from area communities. Any laborers brought in from outside the <br />area would find accommodations available in Baggs and Rawlins, <br />Wyoming, and Craig, Colorado. <br />OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE <br />3.33 The proposed Sandstone Dam and Reservoir would provide <br />municipal, agricultural and industrial water to portions of the <br />Savery Creek and Little Snake River basins located in Carbon <br />County, Wyoming. Approximate annual yields available from the <br />project would be 200 acre-feet, 12,000 acre-feet and 20,000 acre- <br />feet for municipal, agricultural and industrial uses, <br />respectively. <br />3.34 The proposed Sandstone project would be operated with a <br />total storage capacity of 52,000 acre-feet at a normal high water <br />• level (NHWL) of 6,932 feet msl. Dead storage would be 100 acre- <br />3-11 <br />
