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.
