Engineer Tells of Costs On Local Dam Project Im-uI responsibilities on the Willow Creek project were dis cussed by Nlel Meadowcroft of the U. S. Army Corps of Engi neers, Wnlla Walla district, In an appearance st the lleppncr Morrow County Chamber of Commerce May 16. He was ac companied by Wally Brassfleld and Joen Griffith, also of the Engineers' staff. Representatives of the county, City of Hcppner, planning com missions of both city and coun ty, the came commission, U. S. Forest Service, and the Cham ber of Commerce met with the engineers after the meeting to begin coordination in sharing of these responsibilities. Among the local responsibil ities In connection with the various features of the project are these: 1. Channel Impiovereent under the flKid control feature. Total cost of channel Improvement through Hcppner Is expected to be about $150,000. Local cost share applies only to securing rights of way or permanent casements at an estimated $10. 500. Actus! width of the chan nel will b about 75 feet and It will be designed to accommo date existing Improvements so far as possible. Meadowcroft said -hat there may be some problems of disturbance during construction but an effort will be made to work these out with Individuals and local organiza tions. He anticipates that it will require very little relocaion of existing structures. Rights of way for the dam and reservoir will be acquired by the federal government. Mayor W. C. Rose wall said he felt It the city's re sponsibility to acquire rights ol way for the channel Improve ment. Thl:i would extend som l'i miics through town, would Include removal of brush and debris. There would be two short sections of concrete re taining wall on the south end, some riprap facing, togeth c r with widening, straightening and flattening of slopes In order to provide for a flow of 1500 cu. ft. per second. Through the lower section of town, principal Improvement would be rock rip rap revetment on the left bank. Below the highway crossing the channel principally would oe widened and straightened with slopes steeper. 2. Irrigation costs are based on the ability of Irrigators to repay with balance to come from federal funds. Irrigation district organization will be completed this week, according to Herman Winter. Bur e a u of Reclamation, prior to construe Hon, will work on land classl ficatlon and benefit studies when fundr are appropriated lor tne purpose. Districts share ol the cost Is reimbursable to the federal government over a 10-year period exclusive of a development period of up to 10 years. 3. Recreation and wildlife re quires local cost sharing of one-half of capital costs, and the half Is estimated at 557,000 This I s for development of some 100 acres on the reservoir shore for recreation sites and purchasing the property. This is repayable over a period up to 50 years. Annual mainten ance cost, also a local respon sibility, Is estimated at $5000. Fees may be charged the pub lice for use of the recreation sites. Possibility of the state assisting or taking the sites for state parks will be investigated by local groups. State Game Commission has indicated that It will stock the reservoir with fish, Glen Ward said, and may also provide some boat ramps. Wildlife habitat areas also may be developed by the commis sion. City and county planning commissions expect to work out a plan for the recreational areas. 4. Municipal and Industrial water supply. Provision for 100 acre feet of water in the dam will be set aside at the request of the City of Hcppner fox mu nicipal and industrial water supply. Share of this cost on the project is set at $72,000 which may be repaid over a 50 year period. Mayor Rosewall said that the city will plan to sell this water. The government win provide a pipeline from the dam and a place for the city to tap Into It. 5. Water Quality control Is entirely the responsibility of the federal government. Meadowcroft said that ex perts who have examined the Willow Creek site state that it Is one of the best and safest sites for such a project that they have checked. I're-constructlon work is de layed at the present time until Congress appropriates the $160, 000 sought for this work. The project has been authorized by Congress but pre-construction funds, together with those for a number of other Oregon pro jects, were not Included In the 1966-67 federal budget. Con gressman Al Ullman and others are continuing their work to have It added this year. If this were accomplished, pre-construction work could probably start late this year, Meadow croft speculated. If It Is not In cluded until next year, the work would start probably late in 1967.
