Document Description
U16-003; MGT16-010; EIS16-003 Public hearing to certify the Environmental Impact Report (EIS16-003), approve the Conditional Use Permit (Ul6-003) and approve the Management Plan (MGT16-010) for the Van Norden Dam Spillway Modification Project. The proposed project includes the modifications to the dam spillway that would lower the spillway to eliminate the risk from a dam failure and remove the ability to impound water. The existing notch of the spillway would be lowered by 4.5 feet. The new spillway would be 48 feet wide and 95.4 feet long with concrete aprons on the upstream and downstream ends of the spillway. The new spillway would include a small incised channel 0.5-foot-deep and 3 feet wide to allow water passage during low flow conditions in the summer and fall months.
