On June 16, the Upper Trinity Regional Water District (UTRWD) celebrated the groundbreaking of Lake Ralph Hall, North Texas’ newest lake and one of the first built in Texas in decades. Named after the late longtime U.S. Congressman Ralph M. Hall, the reservoir will be located on the North Sulphur River in southeast Fannin County, just north of the city of Ladonia.

UTRWD为大约325,000名居民提供服务。预计在未来50年中,该地区的人口将增加近五倍。

The official start of construction marks a milestone to ensure crucial water supplies for the growing region. The groundbreaking was hosted at the site of the future Leon Hurse Dam, named for the former mayor of Ladonia and a longtime champion of the project. The earthen dam, to be constructed over the next four years, will measure approximately 2.3 miles long and about 110 ft tall as it forms a reservoir capable of storing 180,000 acre-ft of water.

The estimated $490-million project—which was financed by the Texas Water Development Board—includes construction of a 2.5-mile-long State Highway 34 bridge that will span 1.1 miles over the lake and will accommodate pedestrians and cars; a raw water pump station; a 32-mile-long raw water pipeline; a balancing reservoir; an operation/maintenance facility; and improvements and upgrades to adjacent state and county roads.
