While II Might Furnish supplementary

speclal Correspondence
washington, d. c.. April lS.--At the
request Of citizens residing on Little
Cottonwood Creek, District Engineer
George L. Swendsen made an eXamn-
alton Of a natural reservoir site on that
stream, formed by a recession of the
bench on either side Of the creek,
The engineer reports that the dam
would be about 60 feet high and 200 or
$50 feet long on top 1t would be a
rock I'll with tunnel 200 or 300 feet
long, of sufficient size to carry the
food waters OF the stream which may
amount to 600 or 500 second feet II is
estimated that the dam and right Of
way for the reservoir would cost not
less than $4,000, and the storage ca
pacity with a 60-foot dam would only
be 500 acre feet
The board of consulting engineers i'm
session at Salt Lake recently decided
that while the project might prove
feasible for a supplementary water
supply on very valuable lands, neither
the conditions nor the undertaking are
OF such a character that the reclama-
ton fund could be used in its promo
ton. These recommendations have
been formally approved by the chief
engineer.
