About the Fort Peck Plunge Pool, Glasgow, MT:
Project Description:
The Fort Peck Dam on the Missouri River was subjected to severe flooding in 2011. This required operating its spillway for approximately 4 months with peak discharges more than double the previous maximum discharge since the project was constructed in 1938. The hole scoured at the downstream end of the spillway exposed much of the cutoff structure supporting the spillway chute. The purpose of this project is to improve the stability of the existing cutoff structure by filling a significant portion of the scour hole with roller-compacted concrete (RCC) and installing tieback anchors through the existing left cutoff wall. In addition, training walls will be used to facilitate placement of backfill to support the existing cutoff structure wing walls and to help divert erosive flow away from the critical locations near the intersection of the existing cutoff center wall and wing walls. Other work to be performed includes expanding a 175 foot apron length to 250-feet and 350-feet; widening the base of the training walls to facilitate future expansion; deepening the cutoff wall; constructing a reinforced concrete cap on the apron to increase longevity of the repair; and repairing concrete surface damage (spalling and cracks) on the existing spillway chute.
