<br />Figure No.4 <br /> <br /> <br />Bruce Barrett, Bureau of Reclamation engineer for the project, teils iocal officials about the Fifth Water Dam <br />and Powerplant Complex on a recently conducted tour of the Diamond Fork Power System. <br /> <br />DIAMOND FORK TOURS <br /> <br />Local, State, and Federal officials were recently taken on <br />a tour of the Diamond Fork Power System as one way the <br />Bureau of Reclamation is involving the interested public in <br />planning the proJect. Additional tours will be conducted for <br />representatives of other organizations next spring after the <br />weather clears. Interested parties should contact Dr. <br />Richard Partch, Utah Projects Office, Bureau of Reclama- <br />tion, 374-8610. <br /> <br />Two major goals in conducting tours of the project area <br />are to inform participants about the structure, function and <br />interrelationships among the power system features and to <br />receive comments back from participants responding to <br /> <br />what they have seen on the tour. Analysis of this information <br />has been completed for the first tour and indicates strong <br />support for the project overall. However, two major con- <br />cerns were raised. One is that recreational facilities be <br />maximized to the extent pOSSible along the system, while the <br />other IS that the amount of public information on the <br />Diamond Fork Power System be significantly increased. <br />Reclamation is responsing to both of these concerns. Re- <br />creation potential is currently being reviewed and a plan- <br />ning meeting open to the pubHc will be held in January 1982. <br />The three main project alternatives will be reviewed and <br />comments will be solicited at that meeting. <br />
