(12/18/2012— Draft v3)
10. BOR Update
Barry Longwell reviewed the status of the equipment transfer list and stated progress is being made on that list.
BOR is moving forward on a design to test for the crest gate modification which incorporates air for the bladders
and provides for independent control of each gate. The plan is to get the modification set -up for testing. Aspect
of the modification inside the intake channel will be a permanent installation but the air piping components
outside the intake channel will be temporarily plumbed -in until the design can be tested and approved. The
modification will be set -up for testing and made ready for operation by March 2013. Barry explained the BOR
would like to transfer purchase orders which were issued by Reclamation over the years to provide utilities and
other services (such as T -1 lines, DPP analog phone lines, water, sewer, trash, fiber optic, pest control, propane
service up to the dam, LPEA electrical services at the dam, gas services at the DPP), to the facility into the
Association's name. Fencing was reviewed; the fencing that has been authorized will be completed in December,
the portion from the baseball field north on the west side of the property line has not been authorized and is
subject to discussion about the permanent easement location. The security system installation and maintenance
agreement has been completed. Barry recommends the Association consider how we will maintain that security
system in the future. The 8064 Dam completion contract has been completed; all contracts for the construction
of the dam have been closed -out. The RBIC contracts have been closed out. The only open contracts are the DPP
Stage II construction contract and the CR 211 contract which is a catch -all for all the small modifications on the
boat ramp and the basin downstream of the dam. A report on the flow tests down Basin Creek is due from the
Technical Service Center hydraulic group in January. Regarding the Navajo Nation Pipeline; the BOR is meeting
with the Navajo Nation and the City of Farmington and they are in the process of transferring the pipeline from
construction to O & M status. Tank construction and putting the pipeline in service is estimated to take place in
spring.
