Peaks of Otter Dam creates Abbott Lake. This record shows work-in-progress and completion of a major repair project. Safety modifications addressed included unsatisfactory emergency spillway capacity, inadequate reduction of flow to receiving stream, insufficient operation of outlet works, and minimal toe drainage. However, additional archeological investigation determined a significant presence of artifacts exists which require redesign of safety modifications to not impact the area. Funding will be requested to complete safety modifications, including installation of concrete cellular matting and toe drain system.
