Review of Design, Construction, and Operation of Crystal Dam Project, Colorado
This study is an independent review of critical engineering data and documentation supplied by the Bureau of Reclamation. The purpose of this review was to determine if there are any apparent risks of serious distress or failure in filling the reservoir or project operation. Recommendations were made as to suggested prudent actions that should be accomplished to provide additional verification of project safety. It is concluded that the site investigations, design, and construction of the dam were conceived and implemented thoroughly and competently. Crystal Dam has inherent safety advantages because of the geologic characteristics of the terrain and the remote location.
