In January. V.m, the Mate

dam which will back up the little stream until it forms a lake
Stocked by the State Game Commission, Lake Penland will De
the first large water impoundment in Morrow county to be
used for recreation. (G T noto).
....... fnndino would
be a problem. Consequently, Or
ille Cutsforth purchased the
property from the Wilkinson
I;ukc interests and cave the
county an option to buy.
In June. In order to expedite
the progress of the construction
tl at least one of the impound
ments. Cutsforth announced
plans for a private development
under which lake-front lots
would be sold and the derived
funds used to build the dam so
that Penland Lake would be
formed.
As the summer of 19C8 moved
alone, surveys of the site indi
cated that at least 25 lots would
be available and all were pur
chased. Nearly all the buyers
live In the Heppner-Lexincton
area.
In the process of developinc
the site. Cutsforth worked with
the various government acencies
which were involved either be
cause of the assistance they
could afford or because various
types of permission were nec
essary before work could pro
ceed. The U. S. Forest Service is one
of the agencies concerned in the
protect because of the lake will
be on USFS land. Therefore the
Lake Penland Corporation will
have to negotiate a use permit
for this part of the property.
Another agency became in
volved because in order to inun
date land, an archaeological
survey is necessary. This survey
has been made and it was de
termined that no artifacts or
historical sites will be covered.
The Oregon State Game Com
mission will stock the lake.
The Heppner Soil and Water
conservation district is involved
because the agency was asked
to do the engineering for the
impoundment. The work would
be done through the Heppner
district.
Permission of the Water Re
sources Board of Oregon must
be received whenever water is
impounded.
The Morrow county court is
another important party to the
development. Relocation of the
access road, and improvement
and maintenance of this coun
ty road, are involved.
Tha 9 Ktiu'khnldcra in Lake
Penland Corporation, formed or
Iglnnlly by Cutsforth as tho
means by which the prolect
would be financed and develop
ed, now anticipate purchase of
the property from Cutsforth.
This Is the next step.
The Lake Penland Corporation
must submit plans to the var
ious agencies Involved so that
working agreements can be
signed.
In the course of the studies
of soil suitability for water im
poundment and mapping of the
area, it was determined that the
dam would best be constructed
further south on the prairie
than originally planned. The
change in the placement of the
dam will result in considerably
more lake surface doubling
the estimated 30 acres to over
CO and more shoreline. This
will mean more frontage for the
public and members of the cor
poration. Vacation College
