2008 - Rubicon Gate Built

The District, City of Longmont and Boulder County installed a special gate to regulate flows during times of particularly low flow in St. Vrain Creek. The gates were installed on three diversion structures and completed in partnership with Trout Unlimited. Unfortunately, all three Rubicon gates were heavily damaged or destroyed by the September 2013 Flood and were not rebuilt. The District is actively participating in and leading discussions on new and novel ways to regulate flows.
