RRHP work resumes upstream as waters recede;  Lake Red Rock 50th anniversary celebrated

Aug 06

Work on the Red Rock Hydroelectric Project has resumed on the upstream side of Red Rock Dam as water levels have receded. Those levels were more than 774 feet above sea level as of June 1, but have since dropped below the level of the upstream work platform.

Work continues on the downstream side of the dam. Final equipment installation, verification, and equipment checks are in full swing and the switchyard, located between the dam and the powerhouse, is nearly complete.
