Wolf Run Lake
(Continued From Page II

\OOnCluueQ from rage -
1t is anticipated that the Wolf
Run lake will be used as source
of water supply. The COM
munities of Belle Valley and
Caldwell would be within econ
omical pipeline distance of the
proposed lake. Their combined
population would represent ap-
proximately $500 people. Cald-
well has increased in population
1856 percent since 1910 but the
water usage has increased out
of all proportion to population
growth.
The firm of Greer-Jewell and
Associates was retained to make
study of the foundation con-
ditions at the proposed dam site.
A pattern of seven test holes was
made, five in the valley and two
on each of the abutments. A
number of test pits were also
constructed to determine seep-
age. The company said the val
ley floor at the proposed dam
site has 10 to Is feet of over
burden above rock but that no
difficulties are expected in the
valley bottom beyond those nor
mally encountered.
The dam will be rolled earth
fill type of structure having a
top width of 20 feet with an
elevation of 812 feet. The normal
pool elevation is planned at 800
feet.
The principal spillway is a cul-
vert and riser design. This has
the advantage of allowing a road
across the fill without the neces-
sity of bridging over the spill
way structure. An emergency
| spillWay will be located on the
northwest abutment and will
extend to a valley entering Wolf
Run directly below the dam fill.
The principal spillWay and
storage are adequate to carry
the greatest runoff expected in
one hundred years. The emer-
gency spillway is designed to
handle water in excess of this
up to the greatest flood ever
expected in this watershed
Pollution in the watershed is
not a problem. There are no
communities in the watershed.
Barnlots and possible a few out
door toilets will be within the
drainage area but their contri-
button of wastes that reach the
lake will be negligible.
1t would be ideal to own or
control the entire watershed but
this is not economically feasible.
The area considered necessary
for the purchase is adequate to
insure the people of Ohio access
to the lake and to allow for
development such as camping

State Roads Are
Graded-Dragged
By Local Crews

State highway crews are
restoring the original surface to
state roads that were badly
damaged during the winter
months, Archie VanFossen, local
state highway maintenance
superintendent, reported today.
The treatment includes grad
ing and dragging traffic bound
roads and applying limestone.
Sealing and patching is being
done on hard surface roads.
Pothole patching is being done
on State Routes 78 and 339 and
sealing on State Route 285.
Because of the snowfall last
week, work was completed on
the slip on State Route 339, this
week.
Supt. VanFossen said that a
shipment of 200 creosoted posts
was received at the local state
garage last week. The posts will

The results of the engineering
study indicate that the following
features favor the site for con-
struction of dam and lake:
The dam would be located at
a narrow section of the valley,
which would reduce construction
costs.
Suitable fill material is avail
able.
No significant pollution prob
lens presently exist.
The runoff from the watershed
will supply the lake and water
