Dam restoration project
Almaden Dam (at Almaden Reservoir)

The Almaden Dam Program includes construction, inspection and maintenance activities. The proposed 10-year program involves three elements: (1) replacement of the intake structure located inside the reservoir and upstream side of the dam; (2) the installation of a dam seepage collection and monitoring system located at the downstream toe of the dam; and (3) ongoing maintenance activities associated with the dam and outlet works facilities.
