Also included with this con
tra d is the lands« aping pro

just h.ipjx ns to tie in the
shape of a ball field
says
Bessey When the contract is
completed the area will lie
seeded and sodded with trees
and shrubs planted around the
e«lge of the park
Although the I ki . i I ramp its
elf is completed to a usable
stage, the contra« t for the I kki I
ramp also includes the con
struction of a restroom and
more landscaping around the
area
"People have sur«- la i n us
mg the recreation ar«'u says
liessey, ' I'm glad to s e e it
Dave Mow at Construction
has the «!•-< k treatment con
tract which «alls for the final
scaling of the top of the dam
with a smooth surface so that
nei-ded equipment « an l«e driv
en onto th«‘ top of the dam,
which will nol tie considered a
road for public access
Another project which must
he completed before the dam
is considered finished is con
struction of a road which
would pruvidr access to the
north end of the dam for
maintenance purposes
The
original proposal by the Corps
was for a one lane gravel type
road closed to public access
which would run from upper
Willow Creek road along the
hillside and connect with a
city street on hospital hill
The city of Heppner w ithdrew
an easement for construction
of that road and the Corps
alternate plan is for a road
which w ill "zigzag up the
side of the hill to the top of the
dam
Bessey predicts a busy sum
mer for himself tiefore the
turnover of the project from
the Walla Walla district to the
Portland district office is com
pleted He has a H S in Civil
Kngineermg from Idaho State
I niversity and spends a g«K*l
«leal of time che< king to s«*e
that contractors stay on sche
dole and that quality of the
work is maintained
Although Bessey will re
main with the Walla Walla
office the recommendation to
k«*ep someone on permanent
assignment for operation of
the dam has tieen made to the
Portland office
An intake tan is suspended
by cables from the small
building on the top of the dam
The intake taix ran be raised
and lowered allowing the wa
ter which goes through the
spillway to come from any
level of the p«Ki| tiehind the
dam This allows some con
trol over the water quality
Ix'low the «lam
Also from the top of the
«lam. a telephone system is
connected to a float contained
in a pipe The float goes up
aiuldown with the level of the
jkhi I ami the telephone system
allows the engineer to deter
mine the ex at t height of the
| hki I
P llim atrly the sarne

A concern to many people
has been the leakage of water
through the walls of (he dam
Although leakage can still he
seen by the wet damp face of
the dam and in the gallery < a
tunnel which runs through the
dam - the recently completed
$2 m illion grouting project has
reduced that leakage by 90
percent
The leakage will
continue to decrease through
the years, says Bessey as
minerals in the water cause a

The master
computer would then analyze
all the input data from the
streams and sound the flood
alarm if conditions are pre
sent
The area behind the dam is
sufficient to handle 4.000 acre
feet of water however, this
means that between the nor
mal 2.063 acre foot level of
water an acre foot is an acre
one foot deep behind the dam
and the top of the spillway is
«•nough area to handle the
amount of water which would
cause a "100 year flood, that
is one the size shich devastat
ed Heppner in 1903 For this
reason Bessey says, the pi»
sibility of w atrr ever spilling
over the top of the spillway is
extremely remote
Should
such a situation occur that
water must bo held behind the
dam above the normal pool
level that probably
what
would occur is that after a few
«lavs when the water levels in
the creeks subsided the water
would be allowed to go
through the dam at a rate
which would maintain a safe
level in the creeks
A control building at the
base of the dam contains two
larger pipes used in the spring
and a smaller pipe, extending
to a higher level in the pool
which would be used during
the summer
These pipes
connect the intake ( kix to the
spillway
