2005 Reservoir Project Info below

Because of the growing demand for water, Pinewood’s Water District designed a plan that included installing large-diameter pipe, and the reservoir’s construction. The pictures below show the projects from inception to completion. Approximate date; from inception in 2000 to 2009 when the reservoir was first filled.

Trenching and Pipe Laying

The massive 113,000-pound trencher moves down Kiowa

The outflow and intake piles were set into a trench that measured three-feet wide by seven-feet deep

Each 50-foot length of high-density polyethylene pipe took 20 minutes to fuse

PWSWD cut costs in half by using Colorado’s largest trenching machine

The “packer-whacker” tamps down the trench soil

The rock was literally ground into dirt and the “spoil” conveyed to the side of the trench

Clearing the site

Leveling the land

The cement goes in…

…as a crane assists

The spillway nears completion

And done at last!
