The first unit Includes the construction of three concrete siphons, one concrete flume, and, two or three minor concrete structures. The concrete siphons will have an Inside diameter of 8 feet and an aggregate length of 7,000 feet. The principal items of work and the estimated quantities Involved are as follows: 82,000 cubic yards of common excavation; 3,000 cubic yards of rock excavation; excava-tion; 10,500 cubic yards of excavation exca-vation in changing the channel of the river; 6,000 cubic yards of compacted embankment; 63,000 cubic yards of backfill; the placing plac-ing of 7,600 cubic yards of concrete con-crete in structures; and the placing plac-ing of 1,900,000 pounds of reinforcement rein-forcement steel. The bids are to , be opened at 10 a. m. on March 15, 1944, In the Provo office of the Bureau of Reclamation. The successful contractor will have 30 days in which to start work and 300 calendar days in which, to complete all of the work in. the contract.
