A Approximately six to eight vertical feet below the bottom of the riverbed. <br />Q And how far into each streambank do they go? <br />A They -o a m inimum of 15 feet back into -the--o riginal s- <br />tream bank. <br />Q And how many tons of rock went into building the 15 structures that make <br />[up] Phase One and Phase Two? <br />A Well, there was approximately over 4000 tons of rock [] hauled in. for this <br />project. <br />Q How many tons of grout or cement went into building these structures? <br />A It was over 250 tons of concrete gravel pumped in. <br />Q And is material removed from the streambed as well? <br />A Yes, complete reconfiguration of [the] streambed. We removed and <br />moved approximately 8,000 tons of rock and cobble and sand and gravel. <br />The construction was extensive <br />Jeris Danielson, former Colorado State Engineer, v VIII, p.83 <br />Q When you compare the Breckenridge Course with those in Golden, Fort <br />Collins and Littleton, first with respect to extent of construction - - <br />A Breckenridge with the addition of Phase Two; in my opinion, rises at least <br />to the level of the construction in Golden, very extensive amounts of <br />engineering work done. Breckenridge far exceeds the construction that <br />occurred in the Fort Collins case and is certainly more intensive than the <br />Littleton Course. <br />3.
