<br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />.22~ <br /> <br />The concrete gravity section has five 20' x 17' radial gates for controlling <br /> <br /> <br />the flow of water d~ the Big Thompson River. Station 22 127 on the axis <br /> <br /> <br />of Olympus Dam bears S. 55027' E.. a di"tance of 2.660.5 feet from the north- <br /> <br />"' <br /> <br />of the dam. The above-ground surfaoe capaoity of Este" Park Lake is 2,888 <br /> <br />aore feet. <br />"Dead" storage 407 acrs feet <br /> ,"Aotive" atorage 2,4BI aore feet <br />"Bank" storage 300 aore feet <br />Total rrtorage 3,188 aore feet <br /> <br />9. The Estes-Foothills Aqu~duot and "Power Syatem (Sheet 5. Exhibit C) <br /> <br /> <br />is designed to oonvey 550 seoond feet of water diverted from the Western Slopa, <br /> <br />exoess w.ters' of the Big Jt'hompson River, and Big Thompson water to be used for <br /> <br />power from Estes, Park Laks to the Flatiron Reservoir. The Western Slope water <br /> <br />end exoess Big Thompson wster would then be transferred to the Foothills Reser- <br /> <br />voir. Big Thompson flows used only for power would be returned to the Big <br /> <br /> <br />Thompson River et th~ Big Thompson wBsteway. Full utilization of the difference <br /> <br />in elevation between the headworks at Olympus Dam end the disoharge et Flatiron <br /> <br />Reservoir will be used for the produotion of hydro-eleotrio power by the system <br /> <br />generally described as follews and more particularly described by plans, seotions. <br /> <br /> <br />end traverse tables as sho~ on Sheet 5 of Exhibit C (Drawing No. Gen. 115). <br /> <br />Beginning at the headgate entrance to the Estes-Foothills Aqueduct <br /> <br /> <br />and Power System which point is Station la 100.10 on the system, and which <br /> <br /> <br />point coincides with Station 22 127 an the Olympus D~~ axi., and from which <br /> <br /> <br />point the NW cor.
