<br />r <br /> <br />f <br />i <br /> <br />I <br />, <br />I <br /> <br />barrier exists or if a man-made barrier could be constructed <br /> <br />between the east abutment of the ponds and the river, the <br /> <br />maximum seepage over a 50 year period would be less than 1,000 <br /> <br />feet. <br /> <br />oil well logs in the evaporation pond area indicate that <br /> <br />no ground water was encountered to depths much deeper than a <br /> <br />1,000 feet. An existing open oil well located at the proposed <br /> <br />site and less than 2,500 feet from the river is totally dry <br /> <br />which provides further evidence that a natural seal from the <br /> <br />river may exist. <br /> <br />A detailed geologic investigation of the area is needed to <br /> <br />determine if such an approach is feasible. Substantial reduc- <br />tion of the project cost can be realized if the barrier is <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />present or by constructing a barrier to prevent water from <br /> <br />seeping to the river. <br /> <br />By allowing the percolation proposed by this alternative, <br /> <br />no additional storage or use of the water would be necessary to <br /> <br />ultimately handle the entire flow from the spring. <br /> <br />RIGHT-OF-WAYS <br /> <br />The LaVerkin Springs are located on land which is owned by <br /> <br />the smith Family.
