Summary[edit]
.jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description | Crews detonated charges at the excavation site for the Folsom Dam auxiliary spillway in Folsom, Calif., April 10 to loosen bedrock for removal. On April 13, the Corps completed its final rock blasting for the foundation of the control structure. More than 3.5 million cubic yards of rock and soil were removed from the auxiliary spillway site. With blasting complete, the Sacramento District will now shift its focus to construction of the spillway's control structure, essentially a second dam. The spillway is scheduled to be ready for use in 2017 and will allow Folsom Dam to release water sooner and more safely, helping reduce flood risk for the Sacramento region.
