Show capacity of 30,000 acre- feet. This reservoir was planned in conjunction with Deer Creek Dam and Reservoir enlargment to meet supplemental irrigation water needs in the Heber Valley. A 200- c. f. s. Keetley Feeder Canal, 5.2 miles long, would deliver flows from Provo River to the reservoir. A total of UlO acres of meadowland and 620 acres of hillside grazing land would be inundated by the reservoir. Relocation of 1.5 miles of U. S. Highway kO and 2 miles of access road to the Park Utah Mine would be required. Relocation of 3* 1 miles of M±- kv powerline to Park City and 1.6 miles of telephone line to the Park Utah Mines would also be required. The feeder canal would be a trapezoidal- shaped earth- lined open conveyance structure and would be visible from Alternate U. S. Highway 189 for approximately h miles. Bates Dam and Reservoir Bates Dam and Reservoir would be located on the Provo River 8 miles northeast of Heber City and would be physically limited to a capacity of 65,000 acre- feet. The dam would be 207 feet high, with ^, 900,000 cubic yards of embankment. The reservoir would inundate 975 acres of land. Bates and Victory Ranches are located within the reservoir basin. Relocation of 1.8 miles of Alternate U. S. Highway 189 around the reservoir would be required to adequately develop surplus flows of the Provo River and to provide sufficient long- time holdover storage capacity. With the larger capacity, Jordanelle Reservoir would be economically superior to Bates Reservoir. Hailstone Dam and Reservoir Hailstone Dam and Reservoir would be located 6.8 miles north of Heber City on the Provo River, about 3/ h mile upstream from the junction of U. S. Highway kO and Alternate 189. Two alternative sizes have been considered for this reservoir, with capacities of 155? 000 and 320,000 acre- feet. The reservoir would be an alternative to Jordanelle Reservoir, with the lesser capacity considered the minimum necessary to meet municipal demands in Salt Lake and Utah Counties on a. uniform municipal pattern each year. The greater capacity would be required to meet demands on a variable demand pattern as they occur each year. The greater capacity 614 |
