J.

The Division's letter <br />dated September 28, 1995 transmitted its adequacy review of the repair <br />plan. The Operator responded to the Division's adequacy review by its <br />letter dated October 5, 1995. <br />During October, the Operator received a proposal from a local company <br />to use polyurethane grout to repair the dams. The grout was to be <br />injected into the dams through holes drilled into the downstream face <br />of the dams. <br />The Operator decided, based on price and schedule, to use polyurethane <br />grout to repair the dams. The grouting work has been completed and it <br />is believed the dams will no longer leak excessively. The lower three <br />dams, numbers 2, 3 and 4 were repaired. <br />The Operator intends to revise the primary spillways on the dams. A <br />12-inch valve will be installed at the outlet end of each of the <br />-im~•-•• s ill~•ia s. mhe sire of ±},e ,-; ma r•, s ;ll~.a s is ,-esenred on <br />~- , F Y F- ~ P--- Y F- <br />Map No. 8A-9. All four of the primary spillways are 12-inches in <br />diameter, therefore the installation of the 12-inch valves will not <br />change the design discharge capacity of the primary spillways. <br />Please approve the polyurethane grout repair of the dams and the <br />installation of the 12-inch valves at the outlet end of each of the <br />primary spillways through approval of technical revision number 27. No <br />revised pages or maps will suit from this approval. Please call if <br />you have any questions. <br />Sin erely, /~ ~ 'y <br />/im Stover P.E. ~G spy ~ ,,,J ` <br />Consulting Engineer `V ~ n~ 1 ~, J~~~~~ 1 ~~. <br />~~ ~`~/~, ~ u ~~~~ ~ <br />cc: Basil Bear ~y/_ ~L ~( <br />~. ~ ~~~,~ ~ a4 <br />
