Both will <br />be partially inundated at the conservation pool. level if the <br />contractor uses them. The left abutment borrow area, located <br />between the relocated Denver & Rio Grande Western railroad <br />tracks and the reservoir and immediately west of the dam, <br />is the only major borrow source north of the reservoir.
