| Relation | Central Utah Project; Western Waters Digital Library; to these features physical data on starvation feeder conduit and other canals and conduits are given in table A 4 3 starvation reservoir storage of water in starvation reservoir began in november 1969 and starvation dam was completed in march 1970 the reservoir stores flows from the duchesne and strawberry riverso rivers this water is released as needed to supplement present irrigation supplies in the duchesne river area and to replace water diverted to the bonneville basin by the strawberry aqueduct starvation reservoir is expected to fluctuate quite widely from year to year depending on available water supplies the reservoir is filled by surplus winter and spring flows with the maximum content for the year usually reached during april may or june releases will normally be made during the summer and early fall months approximately 75 percent of the time there will be holdover water in the reservoir at the end of the year which may be used for the next irrigation season according to an operation study the reservoir would have emptied during 10 of the 40 years from 1921 through 19600 1960 starvation dam is a rolled earthfill earthfall earth fill structure located on thestrawberry Strawberry the river about 3 miles upstream from duchesne two access roads totaling 2.7 27 27 miles in length were constructed to the dam US highway 40 which passed through the starvation reservoir basin was relocated for approximately 6.5 65 65 miles west of duchesneo duchesne duchesney Duches neo this relocation was completed as part of a state program for upgrading US 40 between strawberry reservoir and duchesne and the highway was opened to traffic in october 1969 starvation bridge which spans an arm of the reservoir in included in the relocated highway this bridge is 1634 feet long and 114 feet above the valley floor in addition to highway 40 2.16 216 miles of strawberry river road and 1 mile of rabbit gulch road were relocated and improved Ohy physical ohysical physical sical data on starvation reservoir and other dams and reservoirs are given in table A 5 ao 5o b strawberry aqueduct and collection sys system t the strawberry aqueduct and collection system fig A 5 would consist of upper stillwater reservoir currant creek reservoir the strawberry aqueduct with its various diversion structures and feeder pipelines and strawberry reservoir enlargement upper stillwater and currant creek reservoirs would serve as regulating reservoirs along the strawberry aqueduct lower stillwater reservoir a recreation and fishery mitigation reservoir on indian lands would share several impacts with upper stillwater reservoir 33 |
