Status of Lake Laura Dam Reconstruction Work

10/8/2015

3 Comments

 
As anybody visiting Lake Laura can tell, the lake drawdown has been completed and the dam construction work is well underway. While the wet fall has slowed some of the work (and caused a slight re-filling of the lake), ASI, the dam contractor, has informed the resort that the work on the Lake Laura dam should be completed by this winter and the Lake will be available for recreational use this summer.

In regards to the status of removing sediment while the lake is drawn down, the resort continues to work on obtaining the necessary permits and has been contacting contractors to receive bids for the work. The scope of the work is still uncertain given the total amount of funds raised for the effort. The Friends of Lake Laura continue to solicit donations so that we can maximize the sediment removal effort. (If you haven’t yet made a contribution, please consider doing so.)

As always, as we receive news, we will post it here.

Could you post pictures somewhere besides Facebook? On this site, for instance. I live in far off Nebraska, but my parents still have a house there and I spent many summers at the lake! I would love to see what it looks like! Thanks

Great idea about posting pictures here. I am not on facebook (not will I join) so that link goes to a blank page for me.
