Este proyecto es más impresionante de lo que pensaba...
Portugues Dam - Flood Control Project
Ponce, Puerto Rico
The project is located approximately 3 miles northwest of the city of Ponce, Puerto Rico, on the Portugues River. The work will include construction of a 220-foot high Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC) single center thick arch dam with a crest length of 1,230 feet and an estimated 367,000 cubic yards of RCC. Appurtenant structures include integral spillway and intake structure. A valve house and control room for reservoir operation is located just downstream adjacent to the river.
Work will also include foundation excavation in rock, placing foundation concrete, foundation grouting, and development of an on-site quarry for concrete aggregate production. Construction time will depend upon funding and is currently estimated between 48 and 60 months.
Concrete (RCC) thick arch dam would significantly reduce construction costs while providing essential protection needed to prevent flooding. Incorporating RCC design also resulted in an overall design change of the left side of the dam. Now the left abutment will be rotated upstream to avoid the foundation resting on weathered rock. When the Portugues Dam is completed it will be the first thick arch RCC dam constructed by the Corp in the United States and the Caribbean.
We welcome you to be a part of history as the Portugues Dam becomes the first single-centered Roller Compacted Concrete thick arch dam constructed by the Corps in the United States and the Caribbean. The Portugués Dam is the final component of the entire Portugues and Bucana flood risk management project (P&B) in Ponce, Puerto Rico.
In March 2008, the Corps awarded a $180 million contract to Dragados USA Inc. to build the Portugués Dam. Construction started in April 2008 and should be completed in 5 years or by 2013. Upon completion, Ponce residents will have much needed flood risk management during the intense rainy season. The overall cost of the Portugués Dam is estimated at $375 million.
When all work is complete, the overall total investment in the P&B project will have reached over $715 million. The federal government contributes a significant share or 75% and the PR government provides 25%. The local sponsor for this project is the Puerto Rico Department of Natural and Environmental Resources (DNER).
