A three-phase demonstration project to determine if water injection dredging can effectively clear sediment from Tuttle Creek Lake, which has lost approximately half of its conservation pool storage capacity due to sedimentation since the dam was closed in 1962. The project involves using a specially built dredge to stir up sediment and create a slurry that flows downstream, aiming to sustain rese
