Show The Mosida Canal, with two pumping plants, would serve the Mosida area west of Utah Lake. The reclaimed Provo Bay area would be served by the potential Provo Bay pumping plants, canals, and laterals. Springville and Provo Bay Bypass Canals would route flood flows around Springville and Provo Bay Dike. Beer Creek Canal and Pumping Plant and Provo Bay Drain Pumping Plant would convey drain water of Beer Creek and Provo Bay areas into Utah Lake. ( Physical data on the nine pumping plants required for the Bonneville Unit Irrigation and Drainage System are given in Table A- 6.) The enlarged Elberta Canal would serve the Elberta area with water from the enlarged Mona Reservoir. As discussed in paragraph A6d( l3), much of the drainage system cannot be located or designed at this time. The estimated total number of miles of open and closed drains required is given in this section and in Table C- 30. The proposed Provo Bay development, including the drainage system, is discussed in paragraph A6d( l0) and shown in Figure A- 25. A subsequent detailed environmental statement would be prepared for the Irrigation and Drainage System of the Bonneville Unit. A sketch map of the Irrigation and Drainage System area is shown in Figure A- 20. ( l) Hayes Reservoir Hayes Reservoir would be formed by constructing a rolled earthfill dam on Diamond Fork about \ mile above the stream's • junction with Spanish Fork River. For the most efficient use of the water for power production, Hayes Reservoir would fill and draw down to minimum pool every year. The filling period would begin at the end of the irrigation season and the reservoir would fill at a steady rate throughout the nonirrigation season, becoming full in April or May. Storage releases would be made during the peak irrigation season months of June, July, and August. A potential recreation site on the north side of the reservoir site has been selected. A paved county road leaves U. S. Highway 50 at the confluence and passes through the proposed dam and reservoir site. This road would be relocated on the north side of the reservoir. Land to be acquired for rights- of- way and construction purposes would include an estimated 1,^ 09 acres of privately owned land, 88 acres of Federal land, and 18 acres of Forest Service land. An artist's concept of Hayes Dam and Reservoir is shown in Figure A- 21. The borrow area for construction materials would be located primarily within the reservoir itself, directly upstream from the dam axis. Exploration for riprap for Hayes Dam has not 73 |
