<br />I <br /> <br />completed its work there. The apparent low <br />bid on this work was $272,262 received from <br />Mile High Drilling Company of Wheatridge, <br />Colorado. The engineer's estimate was <br />$253,430. <br /> <br />Repayment contract with the North Fork <br />Water Conservancy District was amended and <br />signed October 23rd to provide for a full <br />lO-year development period on both the Fire <br />Mountain Canal and Leroux Creek irrigation <br />blocks. <br /> <br />Under the Bostwick Park Project, the <br />contractor for Silver Jack Dam has completed <br />placing compacted backfill around the outlet <br />works, except for the dome of the gate cham- <br />ber. Nearly 60 percent of the concrete has <br />been placed for the spillway inlet and 85 <br />percent for the spillway conduit section. <br />Concrete placements were started for the <br />spillway stilling basin during October. <br />The contractor resumed work on the dam em- <br />bankment during August and will continue <br />this work as long as weather will permit <br />this fall. He plans to mobilize a much <br />larger earth moving fleet next spring and <br />to complete the earthfill of the dam during <br />the next summer season. <br /> <br />On the Collbran project, the contractor <br />completed installation of new outlet works <br />and gates on Little Meadows and Lambert <br />Reservoirs on October 24th. TheBe are two <br />of the fifteen existing reservoirs used in <br />regulating Collbran Project power water. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Power marketing of the Colorado River <br />Storage power - the power contracts now in <br />force with 84 customers call for the delivery <br />of 425,000 kilowatts of firm power this com- <br />ing winter and about 800,000 kilowatts during <br />the summer of 1969. Thus next summer the <br />purchasers of Storage project power will be <br />receiving about 80 percent of the capacity <br />
