THE DAILY RECORD. STROUDSBURG. FRIDAY. OCTOBER 23, 1953 Construction Ot Canadensis Area Dams To Begin In 1961 CONSTRUCTION on the four proposed watershed dams in the Canadensis area will not begin before 1961, Monroe County Commissioners were told yesterday. Paul Nylander, VVatershel Planning Party Leader, of Harrisburg; Donald T.

Dinsmore. Area Conservationist, of Tunkhannock; A. Norman Dietrick, local representative, and Raymond Alleger, president of the Monroe County Soil Conservation District appeared before the commissioners to present an up-to-date picture on the status of the project. Dins mo re traced the history of the watershed and soil conservation project for the commissioners from its inception in 1954 to the present time and he said Monroe County was among the first with its project along the and Itrodheuds creeks. Work on the Brodheads, he said, would take one or two more years to complete the planning as desired.

He pointed out that the Department of Agriculture has asked that all money appropriated for the watershed work be evenly distributed between the states and the counties. This may not slow up the completion of the local project, Dinsmore said, but it may slow down the actual start of construction, Nylander told commissioners that presently there are 43 applications made for watershed projects throughout the state. Four of them are now in the operations stage, he said, of which the Greene- Dreher Dam is one. Five are in the planning stage, and the Brodheads is in this category. Under active application are 13.

and the Poeono project is included in this group. Unfeasible are the balance and in this grouping are the Tobyhanna, McMichaels and the Aquashicola which did not fall within the law as watershed possibilities. Delving deeper into the Brodheads project. Nylander said the total drainage area will 140 square miles, or 90,000 aeres. It will he a complete hydrologic unit, and the four sites will be developed to protect the main dam site, with a damage center.

Economic justification has been shown for the project. Two of the dams will be located near Buck Hill, one on the Buck Hill Creek and the second nearby, and the others will be located on the Goose Pond Run and the Levitt branch. A total of six sites were studied and two were discarded. A statistics picture given by Nylander showed the following. with the first figure showing the damage in 1955, without the flood control, the second the amount of damage with the control, and the third figure the amount of reduca- tion in percentages: Levitt $500; 91 per cent; Confluence to Route 99 cent; 390 to Brook View Manor 91 per eent; Goose 89 per cent.

Total figures show damages In 1955 were $298,100, while the dams would cut this figure to $15,500, or a total reduea- tion of 95 per cent in damage. At the present time, the commissioners were told, easements for the sites are needed. In addition, priority of planning must be undertaken to insure half of the remaining portion of work can be finished by the end of a year. The funds for the projoeis. Dinsmore said, are now ready through Congressional appropriations.

If only a part of the easements can he received he xaid he felt, sure the work could be started on const ruct ion. It was at this point, however, that he said construction would not be started until 1961. Nylander said the dam sites must be used on multi-purpose bases. For water storage, fish and wildlife work and recreation. The state Fish Commission, he said.

Is willing to work with the county on Fences around the dam Nylander would not needed unless there would livestock in the area near the darn. Bids will be let, if possible, on a single-dam basis in order to allow smaller, local contractors to bid on the projects. In other business.
