<br />
<br />The Cedar Mesa Ditch and ReservQir CQmpany Qperates the Cedar Mesa Dam fQr the benefit Qf its 24
<br />sharehQlders, The existing reservQir can stQre 902 acre-feet and is fQrmed by a dam 47-feet high and 1,250 feet IQng,
<br />The dam was cQnstructed priQr to' 1900 and has been repaired a number Qftimes Qver the years. In June Qf2000 the
<br />State Engineer's Office identified a seepage problem alQng th~ dQwnstream slQpe and impQsed a restrictiQn Qn stQrage,
<br />Knight PiesQld, Denver, CQ1QradQ, has cQmpleted the feasibility study and is currently wQrking Qn the design plans,
<br />CQnstructiQn is tentatively scheduled to' Qccur in the fall of 2002.
