<br />.. <br /> <br />if <br /> <br />~ of Paris <br /> <br />Stud~ of Lake Crook <br /> <br />March, 2001 <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />The city land on the north shore is heavily wooded with underbrush. Further nort~ above the city <br />property, are scattered farm and ranch land and sparsely developed subdivisions with scattered <br />dwellings. <br /> <br />The east side of Lake Crook is where the dam and spillway are located and a large portion of the . <br />land between the dam and U.S. Highway 271 is flood plain and undevelopable. <br /> <br />With the exception of the city's property west of Caviness Road, all the city property surrounding <br />Lake Crook is annexed into the City of Paris. <br /> <br />2.1.3 City Utilities. At the south end of the dam is situated the City of Paris 36.0 MOD Water <br />Treatment Plant \vruch pumps water through three large diameter water mains all the way into <br />ground storage tanks in the northwest side of Paris. From these storage tanks, booster pumps <br />lift the water into towers for general distribution. To use water from the plant would require <br />construction of ground storage and booster facilities and possibly even a new elevated storage <br />tank since the lines between the plant and the ground storage tanks are not pressurized at all <br />times. <br /> <br />.... <br /> <br />To the northeast of Lake Crook, about Y2 mile east across U.S, 271 and north about two miles <br />from Pine Creek is the City of Paris Wastewater Treatment Plant. Any sewerage systems on Lake <br />Crook would have to flow east with Pine Creek until it intercepted se\vage trunk mains running <br />roughly parallel to V.S, 271. <br /> <br />Because of the confluence of several small drainage sub-basins into the north shoreline of Lake <br />Crook, any sewer system development along the north shore would likely have to be "lifted" by <br />a pump station east to a point where the sewer could gravity flow to the east. As many as five <br />lift stations could be required to serve the entire north shore, These lift stations would not serve <br />great areas ofland beyond the city owned property because there is a significant drainage divide <br />between Lake Crook and F.M. 1499. <br /> <br />2.1.4 Leases on the Land.
