Besides outlin-ing proposed spending this fis-cal year, the report reviews the work completed last year at the Jordan Water Purification Plant, Starvation Reservoir, Bottle Hollow Reservoir and other projects. 3 The report indicates that the past year was "one of the most significant in the district's his-tory," for construction projects with a construction program amounting to $18 million. During the year, Soldier Creek Camp Dam was brought to 50 per cent completion, Lay-out Tunnel brought to 30 per cent completion, and the Water Hollow Tunnel and Stillwater Tunnel's west portal were com-pleted. The Jordan Aqueduct in Salt Lake County was started, and work on it has been 20 per cent completed by the end of the fiscal year. Also during the year, a feas-ibility report on a water purifi-cation plant for Provo, Orem and other north Utah counties was begun. Results of the sur-vey are expected soon, accord-ing to the report. The Jordan Water Purifica-tion Plant, designed to serve Salt Lake County, was started on March 1, 1972. Water for the plant will come from the south slopes of the Uinta Mountains through the Central Utah Water Project. The plant was five per cent complete at the end of the fiscal year and is expected to be operational in 1974. Both the Starvation and Bottle Hollow Reservoirs filled for the first time during the year, according to the report. At the Starvation Reservoir, 15,000 acre feet of water were released for irrigation purposes and 150,000 acre feet remained stored at the end of the season, the report indicated. The Bottle Hollow Reservoir is owned and managed by the Ute Indian Tribe as part of their commercial and recrea-tional complex. Last July 10, early in the fis-cal year, ground breaking cere-monies were held for the new Strwaberry Reservoir enlarge-ment. The new Soldier Creek Dam will increase the capacity of Strawberry Reservoir by four times. Besides the $29 million ap-propriated for next year for the Bonnevillr project, the annual report indicates that $850,000 has been earmarked for the Jensen Unit and $495,000 for the Vernal Unit. Planning funds for the Ute-India- n Unit are also included. The Bonneville appropriation will make possible completion of the first two phases of the Jordan Aqueduct, speeding de-livery of water to Salt Lake County. The annual report also re-views the Rainbow Bridge-Lak- e Powell controversy. According to the report, if the level of the lake is kept at a low level in order to void flooding the lower portions of Rainbow Bridge, power generation and future water projects will suf-fer. |
