EWEB helps the City of Eugene lower its carbon footprint
EWEB, City of Eugene project reduces City Facilities carbon footprint by 16%
While world leaders debate climate action, EWEB reflects on our community's climate successes
Recent material shortages have EWEB increasingly concerned about our ability to meet timelines for electric and water construction projects.
As part of our routine monitoring efforts, EWEB conducted a bathymetric survey of Trail Bridge Reservoir in May 2021 and found unusual depressions. EWEB conducted follow-up inspections with a remotely operated underwater vehicle along with dye testing by divers in early June 2021. Based on the dye tests, the two larger depressions are actively taking water and are considered sinkholes. Subsequent dye testing and geophysical investigations in July and August indicated that there is no concentrated seepage flow through or under Trail Bridge Dam.
