After years of planning, and 19 months of construction, the last eight inches of compacted soils in the Jackson Flat dam structure will be placed in the next few days. Additional work on the pump station and other less critical items will be finalized in February. The $12-million reservoir has a total storage capacity of 4,228 acre-feet of water, or 1.38 billion gallons of water. The added storage will more than double the amount of water available during the growing season for farms, residential yards and gardens, the Kanab High School Football Field, and potentially other recreational and public areas in the city such as the parks, and cemetery.
