Project:
Rehabilitate
the original Boulder Dam of the early 1900's for water storage fed
by snowmelt from the Continental Divide.
Challenge:
This project involved the installation of a vertical membrane lining
system on the face of an existing rock and crib dam structure. The
highest section of the dam is 40' and varies in slope from 1:1 to
vertical.
The
project site, located at over 10,000 ft. in elevation required construction
to be completed late in season. Battling high winds and cold temperatures,
the project was completed on-time and ready for the safe storage
of the critical spring run-off.
