Additional Information |
"Electric Lake is a large reservoir on Huntington Creek high on the east slope of the Wasatch Plateau in Utah. The reservoir was created in 1974 by the construction of an earth-fill dam. The shoreline is primarily owned by Utah Power and Light (UP&L) and the Huntington-Cleveland Irrigation Company. Its water is consumed for irrigation and power plant cooling, but also used for recreation and coldwater aquatic habitat."-Wikipedia. Utah Power and Light is now Rocky Mountain Power. A major user of water from Electric Lake is the Huntington Power Plant at the bottom of Huntington Canyon |
