Biden-Harris Administration Allocates $14 million from Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to Glen Elder Dam Project
The Bureau of Reclamation has obligated $14 million in funding from President Biden¡¯s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law toward the Glen Elder Dam Spillway Chute Replacement project located in north central Kansas. The funding is part of a $240 million investment allocated earlier this year from the Infrastructure Law for aging infrastructure projects across the country.
Glen Elder Dam is a Bureau of Reclamation facility located on the Solomon River, which supports flood control, safeguarding the surrounding community. Completed in 1968, the aging infrastructure now requires replacement of the concrete spillway chute floor. Ames Construction, Inc. was awarded a $41.2 million contract and began work in early 2022 with completion estimated in 2025.
¡°Glen Elder Dam is critical to protecting the way of life in the surrounding communities,¡± said Reclamation¡¯s Nebraska-Kansas Area Manager Aaron Thompson. ¡°The main purpose of the dam is flood control; and we want to continue to safeguard these communities from potential disaster from Solomon River flooding for years to come.¡±
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law allocates $8.3 billion to the Bureau of Reclamation for twelve programs and activities including repairs for aging water infrastructure, dam safety, completing rural water projects, and protecting aquatic ecosystems.
