Hickory Log Creek Dam is a gravity dam on the Hickory Log Creek which runs from northeast and north-central Cherokee County, Georgia, United States, south-southwest to the northeastern part of Canton, the county seat. It is a tributary of the Etowah River, which it meets shortly after crossing under Riverstone Parkway (formerly Ball Ground Highway and Georgia 5). Since the end of November 2007, a stream gauge (location identifier HLCG1) is located just below the dam, at an elevation of AMSL (NGVD29). The drainage basin above this point has an area of .() ==Dam and reservoir== Hickory Log Creek Dam is a high roller-compacted-concrete dam just north of the Riverstone business district in Canton, and just west of Bluffs Parkway. () The city partnered with the Cobb County-Marietta Water Authority (CCMWA) to build the dam. Hickory Log Creek Reservoir is a drought-contingency reservoir which provides an additional source of drinking water for the area. The dam is approximately or 290 meters wide, and or 55 meters high, making it one of largest dams in the state of Georgia not built by the Corps of Engineers or Georgia Power. Construction was completed December 2007, and filling of the reservoir was expected to take another two years.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Hickory Log Creek Dam and Reservoir )〕 The reservoir covers when full, and offers of shoreline. At capacity, it will hold about of water. It is permitted for a withdrawal of per day, which will be shared by Canton and CCMWA. In addition to the dam and reservoir, the project also includes an intake and pump station, plus a pipeline to transport water between the reservoir and the Etowah River. Several miles or kilometers of the creek will be submerged, and of native and mostly hardwood trees are being clear-cut for the lake. It will also receive runoff directly from Bluffs Technology Park, an industrial park constructed immediately to the lake's east along Bluffs Parkway, in what is now forested and very hilly area just west of Interstate 575. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hickory Log Creek Dam」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
