The <br />reservoir was originally constructed in 1896 to store water for irrigation. The dam was <br />constructed of a granular material that over the years suffered structural damage due to <br />seepage. In 1983 sand boils appeared along the toe of the dam giving evidence that <br />piping was occurring along the dam embankment. Given the condition of the dam <br />embankment and the potential for failure, the dam was intentionally breached in 1983. <br />The goal of the project is to rehabilitate the existing facility to meet the State of <br />Colorado's "Rules and Regulations for Dam Safety and Dam Construction" therefore <br />permitting the storage of approximately 1,200 acre-feet of water generated from surface <br />runoff from the Upper Owl Creek basin. The project will consist reconstructing the <br />existing dam embankment, construction of a new outlet structure and spillway, and <br />dredge the reservoir to �rovide an additional 400 acre-feet of storage (PRO�ECT) at a total <br />cost of approximately $1,250,000. <br />Description of Feasibility Study: The CWCB assisted in the preparation of a feasibility <br />study report entitled Feasibility Study of Ow! Creek Reservoir dated November 2002, <br />incorp�rated by reference, and has reviewed said report.
