The water hasalready reached a level within four feet of the overflow andthe structure appears to be 100% efficient thus far. Three side dams were required in this case also. Thesewere built of earth, rip-rapped on the water side, as are allthe earth dams, and contain 21,463 cubic yards of embank-ment. The area of the pond will be 500 acres. A canal 900 feet long extends from a point above theeastern end of the main dam to the concrete intake houselocated betlween two solid rock banks.
