A construction cost estimate breakdown may be found in Appendix <br /> <br />A. <br /> <br />2.5 ALTERNATIVE D: Dam 1,3 Miles (2.1 km) North of Taylor Draw; <br />Crest EI, 5321 (1622 m) <br /> <br />2,5.1 Location and General Description <br /> <br />2.5.1.1 The Alternative D dam site is located approximately 1.3 miles <br />(2,1 km) North of Taylor Draw. This dam site was examined as an <br />alternative to the appl icants proposed site when the feasibility study <br />for Taylor Draw was written in 1979, <br /> <br />2.5.1,2 The capacity of the reservoir would be 8900 acre-feet <br />(10.9xI06m3) at the normal high water line elevation of 5322 feet MSl <br />(1622 m), The surface area of the reservoir at high water would be <br />approximately 445 acres (180 ha), The crest elevation of the dam <br />would be 5333 feet MSL (1625 m), Recreation and flood control <br />benefits would be essentially the same as Alternative A. <br /> <br />2.5,1.3 <br /> <br />Alternative D would require approximately 3 miles of <br /> <br />telephone line relocation, Approximately 2100 feet (638 m) of <br />Colorado Highway 64 would need to be relocated upstream of the Staley <br />Gordon Mine Bridge, <br /> <br />2,5.2 Construction Methods, Features and Schedules <br /> <br />2.5.2,1 Dam Design The dam height for Alternative D is <br />approximately 58 feet (17,7 m) from the stream bed to the top of the <br />dam, Approximately 173,000 cubic yards (132,267 m3) of material would <br />be used in the dam construction. The outlet works would consist of a <br />6-foot (1.83 m) diameter modified horseshoe tunnel tenminating into a <br />stilling basin similar to Alternative A. The construction schedule <br />would be the same as Alternative A. Figure 2 - 5 depicts the dam <br />concept and features. <br /> <br />25 <br />
