<br />Water Source: Chicago Creek Project Yield: 230 acre feet <br />Terms of Loan: $955,000 @ 4.75% for 10 yrs. Project Type: Reservoir Rehabilitation <br /> <br />e In 1998 the State Engineer's Office restricted the storage height of the reservoir to be 9-ft. below the crest of the <br />dam, reducing the storage capacity from 230 acre-ft. to 120 acre-ft. The storage restriction was due to excessive seepage <br />and the poor condition of the spillway. Harrison Western Construction, and designlbuild group out of Denver, Colorado, <br />was retained by the Town to design and construct the necessary improvements to restore the dam to its original storage <br />capacity of 230 acre-feet. The proposed improvements inclttde, constructing a compacted earthfillliner on the upstream <br />slope of the reservoir and floor, construct new toe drains, raise the embankment dam crest by 2.5-ft., place rip rap and <br />liner protection material above the earthfillliner, spillway repairs, and fill the old borrow pit within the reservoir. <br />Harrison Western Construction has commenced construction in rehabilitating the dam face and will continue working as <br />weather permits. <br /> <br />8.
