Most of these def ic ienc ies ind icated that str icter maintenance <br /> <br /> <br />procedures were required on the dam and that additional <br /> <br /> <br />monitoring devIces were needed. However, the major deficiency <br /> <br /> <br />I isted in the report was that the outlet chute and stilling basin <br /> <br /> <br />needed to be replaced. <br /> <br />CURRENT STATUS <br /> <br />Since 1979 the Montezuma Valley Irrigation Company has been <br />correctIng the defIciencies on Groundhog Dam. Most of the <br />monitoring devices have been installed and all deficient <br />maintenance items have been corrected. <br /> <br />In May, 1981, the company submitted an application to the <br /> <br /> <br />CWCS for assistance in replacing the outlet chute and stilling <br /> <br /> <br />basin on Groundhog Dam. Subsequently, the Soil Conservation <br /> <br /> <br />ServIce prepared a feasibility report for the company on the <br /> <br /> <br />proposed project. <br /> <br />PROPOSED PROJECT <br /> <br />The project recommended in the feasibility study calls for <br /> <br /> <br />constructing a new outlet channel and stilling basin. A 72-inch <br /> <br /> <br />reinforced concrete pipe approximately 300 feet in length would <br /> <br /> <br />be installed on an alignment essentially parallel to the existing <br /> <br /> <br />outlet chute. Reinforced concrete transitions at either end of <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />-2- <br />
