The Board is asked to approve the 2026 budgeted Slate Creek Diversion Dredging and Low Level Outlet (LLO) Repair project via Resolution 26-06-04. This indicates that funds for dredging at the Slate Diversion Dam and repairs to the low-level outlet structure are included in the 2026 budget and now require formal project approval. Although the agenda does not list contractors or bid details, this level of project approval typically precedes or confirms procurement of engineering, environmental, and construction services for in-water work, structural rehabilitation, and possibly dewatering and sediment management.Infrastructure and environmental firms, specialty dam contractors, and equipment suppliers should see this as a signal that a defined capital project is moving forward and may involve solicitations or subconsulting opportunities tied to dam safety and operational reliability improvements.

The project combines dredging and mechanical/structural repair at a diversion dam, likely requiring specialized dam, environmental permitting, and construction expertise.
