Dog River Pipeline Project Receives State Award

Oregon’s State Land Board honored the City of The Dalles for its Dog River Pipeline project as a contribution to thriving Oregon waterways, wetlands, and lands.  The project received the Stream Award.  It replaced the 112-year-old wooden pipeline that supplied more than half of the City of The Dalles annual water supply, and in the process ensured fish passage and aquatic habitat despite site challenges, resulting in installation of an aquatic species passageway, removing two barriers to fish passage upstream, and employing an innovative solution for fish screening.  Beyond care for aquatic species, the project also restored a historic cabin and built a new trailhead for the mountain bike community.  It will also provide water to the City of The dalles for the next century.  Jacobs Engineering Group designed the project and managed construction.  The project team also included AKS Engineering & Forestry, Consor, Weekly Bros. Construction, Every Idea Marketing,  Wyeast Timber Services, Bounds Excavation, K&E Excavating, and Tapani, Inc.
