Шаблон:For Шаблон:Infobox body of water

Foss Reservoir, also known as Foss Lake, is in Custer County, Oklahoma on the Washita River, about Шаблон:Convert west of Clinton, Oklahoma. The reservoir was constructed during 1958–1961 by the U. S. Bureau of Reclamation. The project was known originally as the Washita Basin Project. The lake and dam were named for the community of Foss, Oklahoma, about Шаблон:Convert south of the site. The primary purposes are to regulate flow of the river and to provide water for the cities of Bessie, Clinton, Cordell and Hobart.[1] It is western Oklahoma's largest lake[2] and lies entirely within Foss State Park.

Description

The reservoir has a surface area of Шаблон:Convert and a shoreline of Шаблон:Convert.[3] The capacity of the reservoir is Шаблон:Convert.[4] The reservoir serves a catchment area of Шаблон:Convert. The reservoir has a mean depth of Шаблон:Convert and a maximum depth of Шаблон:Convert.[2]

Foss Dam

Dam construction began in October, 1958. The dam is Шаблон:Convert high, Шаблон:Convert wide (at the crest) and Шаблон:Convert long.[2]

Foss State Park

Foss State Park encompasses Шаблон:Convert of land and contains 8 campgrounds, swimming beach, 6 boat ramps, a playground, marina, and a restaurant. It also has Шаблон:Convert of equestrian and multi-use trails.[2] Foss State Park is often mentioned as a target for sale or closure to help close the state's current budget deficit. Already the state has sold a herd of bison as "surplus property." The bison had recently been moved into Foss State Park from another location in western Oklahoma.[5]

Water treatment

The water quality in Lake Foss is extremely hard. The Bureau of Reclamation built one of the first electrodialysis plants in the United States to process the water before it is delivered to users. The Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality constructed a new, updated plant to replace the original in 2002.[6] The new plant, built by Ionics, Inc., would also increase production of potable water for its municipal customers from 3 million to 4.5 million U.S. gallons per day.[7]

Water is transported from the dam to consumers via three pumping stations and Шаблон:Convert of aqueducts.[8]
