This technical letter concerns the cost of reservoirs in Illinois, and represents one product of research on the cost of water resources development currently under way at the Illinois State Water Survey. Technical Letter 7 on Water Transmission Costs, dated October 1967, preceded this letter. Parallel studies are going forward on the cost of water-treatment plants, wells, and pumping facilities.
The technical letter concerns the cost of reservoirs in Illinois, and represents one product of research on the cost of water resources development currently under way at the Illinois State Water Survey. Use of this material will give an estimate of total project cost for a reservoir project in the range of storage capacity from 100 to 100,000 acre-feet. This is intended only as an instrument for establishing orders of magnitude as a basis for comparisons and will not take the place of the detailed estimates prepared by engineers for any specific site.
