Gearing up for Construction Season

KCCD staff is preparing for a busy construction season that should start in the late summer and go through winter.  Another fish screen facility will be constructed in the Manastash. That contract is held by the engineering firm, HDR and funded directly by the Bonneville Power Administration. The contractor will be Belsaas & Smith.  We are expecting to provide the day to day construction observation for the project.
A large project on Cherry Creek should go out to bid in August. We've worked on this project for several years and its coming down to the wire with our funding sources.  The project will provide fish screens for three water right holders and remove barriers to fish passage opening up 2 miles of additional stream habitat.
