Concrete arch plus earthfill equals new emigrant dam
120 ft high arch dam near Ashland, Ore, constructed in 1925, will be incorporated into new earthfill dam, additional height being 81 ft; project includes new tunnel outlet, spillway structure, and additional 1500 ft long and 500 ft long dikes; 30,000 ft of plastic tubing will be permanently embedded in new structure to give electronic report on condition of embankment at all times after completion, through use of piezometer instruments.
