Factions Sign Accord On Navajo Lake Waters

Parowan Times, 1 Sep 1944, Parowan, UT

A 20 year old controversy over waters of Navajo Lake famed southern Utah fishing and camping resort which culminated in the dynamiting of a dike across the lake last May (1944) apparently had been settled amicably last Friday after meetings between interested parties and the (Utah) State Fish and Game Commission. The sessions which started Thursday morning and ran well into the night resulted in signing of an agreement whereby the State Game Department will repair the damaged dike and raise it two feet install a head gate at the present spillway level and construct a new spillway at least three feet above the bottom of the headwater. This will allow for storage of approximately 2000 additional acre feet of water to be turned to the Virgin River during the irrigation season in Washington County according to estimates given at the hearings. In event the work of raising the dike cannot be completed immediately it was agreed that a head gate would be installed 1½ feet below the spillway level and the spillway raised 1½ feet to allow storage of surplus water during the winter months. The Virgin River Water Association agreed to pay one-fourth of the cost of raising the dike and installing the new head gate Navajo Lake has no visible outlet and it is contended that water seeping through the sink holes in the east end drain into the Virgin River and that construction of the dike to conserve fish was detrimental to their interests they had threatened court action to prevent the dikes repair unless a satisfactory agreement could be reached. Signatories to the pact written late Thursday night included Newel R Frei, Frank W Pace, E N Larson, J W Clay and Ross Leonard for the State Fish and Game Commission Leroy H Cox, Even Woodbury, J W Spendlove, for the Virgin River Water Users Ass’n; Mr Spendlove, Gene Wadsworth, James M Ballard for the Hurricane Canal Co.; Mr Woodbury and George H Seegmiller for the St George-Washington Canal Co., M J Urie and Don W Draper for the Cedar City Wild Life Federation. -- Salt Lake Tribune —Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.23.68.6 (talk) 17:45, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
