In Cache Valley, the district manager sees smaller-scale projects as a solution to supply concerns and securing more water for the Great Salt Lake.
The state’s Bear River Development proposal would put at 327-foot-tall dam on Temple Fork near its confluence with the Logan River, wiping out all that fish habitat. The dam would hold around 41,000 acre-feet of storage and a lake roughly the size of Pineview Reservoir near Ogden. Much of its water would get pumped up from the Logan River.
The Cache Valley Water District proposes to dam Temple Fork, a tributary of the Logan River, to create a reservoir that would supply future water needs.The Cache Water District is working with engineering students and consulting firms to explore smaller dams in other areas of the valley as well, including on Blacksmith Fork near Hyrum.
Marisa Egbert, with Utah Dvision of Water Resources, talks about the proposed Temple Fork Dam, Tuesday, May 3, 2022 in Logan Canyon. Once construction launches, the water districts are on the hook to pay back the state for the investment, which is why those contracts are important.
