TO INCREASE SUPPLY
OF WATER IN STATE
CONTINUED From Preceding Page.)

Strawberry river is being stored in
reservoir in Strawberry valley, This
reservoir covers an area of $500 acres
when filled, the capacity being 100000
nc re feet. 1t is surrounded by mountains
that have an elevation of approximately
1000 feet, and is located at an eleva-
tion of 300 feet above sea level. In
this locality the annual snowfall is from
200 TO 300 inches. the construction of
several of the features in connection
being through difficulties owing to the
extreme weather and long season. 1t is
hardly deemed economical on account
of these existing circumstances to pro
ceed with the construc tion of any of the
work excepting that inside the tunnels
for longer period than five months In
the year
Strawberry dam. Indian creek dixie,
Indian creek and Trail hollow diversion
canal and the Strawberry tunnel are
features connected with the storage
works which is located wholly in the
mountains. The dam is seventyone feet
high and 400 feet long, continuing no.
COO cubic feet Of earthfill, with a con-
fcretc corewall aud paved on the up
stream slope. The Indian creek dixie is
thirty-seven feet high and 1900 feet
long. and is built on the same plan as
the Strawberry dam, The Indian creek
and 1ralJ hollow canal dlNertS tne water
from Trail hollow and Indian creek into
the reservoir, and is six miles in length,
the first two miles being twenty-five
feet wide. with capacity of l25 second
feet The Strawberry tunnel is $4,000
feet in length. 1t has a lining Of con
crete and capacity of 600 second feet,
and conducts water from the reservoir
through the rim Of the Great Basin into
Sixth Water creek
1t has been difficult matter from
all reports to retain laborers for the
consi ruction work on this gigantic pro-
iect as the several features are located
from twenty to thirtyfive miles from
a railroad, and the road Is covered with
deep snow for al least one-half of the
year.
The work OF unifying the old canal
system and constructing main canals
and laterals should be finished some
time this summer, the old canal which
diverts water from Spanish Fork to be
used rs far as possible. According to
all indication the Strawberry valley pro-
jcct should be completed and ready for
Operation some time mex, spring.
