Clear Branch Dam Rehab To Be Discussed Monday In Parkdale

A public meeting is scheduled for Monday evening in Parkdale to start the planning process for rehabilitation of the Clear Branch Dam.  The Natural Resources Conservation Service is teaming with the U.S. Forest Service and Middle Fork Irrigation District on the project.  The dam was built in 1968 with an expected 50-year lifespan, supplying irrigation to 8,000 acres of land and creating Laurance Lake, a popular recreational spot.  Bringing the dam up to current environmental, engineering, safety, and seismic standards is a big part of the project.  The meeting will take place Monday evening from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Parkdale Fire Station.
