<br />water supply lines, Jansen Reservoir (4.5 million gallons) and <br />carpios, Longsdale and Lave Plot Cemeteries (630 graves). <br />E. Trinidad Dam. <br />1. Embankment. Trinidad Dam will extend generally in a <br />northwest to southeast line across the Purgatoire River and Frisco <br /> <br />Canyon. It will be of rolled earthfill construction and have a crest <br /> <br /> <br />length of 6,860 feet. Maximum heights of the embankment above the <br /> <br /> <br />riverbed and the floor of Frisco Canyon will be 200 and 100 feet, <br /> <br /> <br />respectively. The crest of the dam will be 24 feet wide and will <br /> <br /> <br />accommodate a project service road. The embankment will have a <br /> <br /> <br />centrally-located impervious fill core zone supported by upstream <br /> <br /> <br />and downstream shells of higher strength granular fill. The upstream <br /> <br /> <br />and downstream sides will respectively have a blanket of protective <br /> <br /> <br />riprap and rock spalls. <br /> <br /> <br />2. Outlet works. The outlet works are located on the right <br /> <br /> <br />side of the Purgatoire (Picketwire) Valley adjacent to the present <br /> <br /> <br />river channel. This feature consists of excavated approach and exit <br /> <br /> <br />channels; a gated intake structure; a single barrel, high pressure <br /> <br /> <br />conduit; and a terminal stilling basin structure. The 10-foot diameter, <br /> <br /> <br />gate-controlled conduit will carry water 1,563 feet under the dam. <br /> <br /> <br />Maximum discharge capacity through the conduit is 5,475 c.f.s. (pool <br /> <br /> <br />elevation 6276.0). The control tower of the outlet works is a 209- <br /> <br /> <br />foot high cylindrical structure supporting a block-shaped control <br /> <br /> <br />facility. A 310-foot long access bridge will connect the control <br /> <br /> <br />tower with the main embankment. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />1-4 <br /> <br />. <br />
