Outingdale Dam done in one month
It took 30 days for a crew of seven El Dorado Irrigation District employees and the district’s dam safety engineer to totally rebuild key elements of the Outingdale Dam. The community of Outingdale gets its water from the dam, a diversion dam on the Middle Fork of the Cosumnes River. Water had to be trucked in when the leaking and deteriorating dam stopped spilling this summer.
