Coyote Valley Dams May Be Started Next Month
Col Colonel Graf district engineer of the army engineers told Ukiah Rotary club that construction of the Coyote Valley dam could begin in June if bids come in within the government estimate. Bids open June 5 and progress depends on scheduling and funding. About 8.5 million dollars are available for the current and next fiscal years, with peak employment near 5,000 workers. The dam will require 5 million cubic yards of dirt, 26 thousand cubic yards of concrete, and several thousand tons of steel. The reservoir will be about five miles long and one mile wide with capacity 122000 acre feet, including allocations for sediment, water use, and flood control.
