Extension is granted for Wonder Lake Dam repairs By Kurt Plaindealer service Lake Master i. Association an 18-month ex- June 1969, to finish the Wonder TjiItp The W< Property has receh tension, repairs dam. _ Craig'Pfannkuche, master secretary, said that pressure by the niiaois Association of Communities prompted the federal government to step in. The master association and IALC /have argued that the Probable Maximum Flood specifications (PMF), deter­ mined by the Illinois Depart­ ment of Transportation, Division of Water Resources, are arbitrary. The PMF consititues 23.9 inches of rain in 24 hours. "They want us to fix up a dam for something that statistically will never happen," Pfannkuche said. Marty Stralow, chief of the dam safety section of IDOT, said the U.S. Corps of Engineers and the Department of the Interior ordered the National Academy of Sciences to review what constitues PMF and what standard of strength ceptable for a dam. ac- Stralow expects the study to be completed by November 1965. In response to the 18-month moratorium/the IALC agreed to withdraw legislation calling for a grandfather provison. It would have, exempted all dams built prior to 1960 from having to meet stricter standards than those under which they were constructed. In a related matter, MPOA lake oommittee chairman Jack Crawford acknowledged that work/ is progressing on a long- term plan to clean up the lake. Hoyever, he projected it would take eight to 10 years to reverse sedimentation problems. "It took years and years for this to occur and it will take years and years for this to come under control," said Dave Brandt, director of the McHenry County Soil Conservation Ser­ vice. Crawford suggested a funding breakdown of 50 percent from the federal government, 25 percent from the county and 25 percent from residents living in the watershed. However, Brandt said he could not even venture a guess on who will fund what. Grants must be applied for and data compiled, he said.
