<br />has indicated concern about the existing dam facing, The proposed project is to provide a renewed slope protection
<br />along the upstream face of the dam. The existing concrete slabs have deteriorated over time, due to the extreme wave
<br />action and general freeze-thaw. The major component ofthe project is new soil cement facing, approximately 3-4 feet
<br />thick, running along about 70% of the existing dam face (8,100-feet). The new soil cement will be poured directly a
<br />over the existing concrete slabs and will extend several feet below the toe ofthe embankment. W. W. Wheeler of ...
