Linda Adcock, project manager on the Center Hill Earthen
Summary
Linda Adcock, project manager on the Center Hill Earthen Dam Seepage Rehabilitation Project, explains to Jared Herren, 9, how the 110-inch by 84-inch Bauer Cutter can drill 300 feet into soil and rock and pump the cuttings back to the surface in a slurry mix for removal. Jared’s late great-grandfather, Oba Herren, reportedly lost approximately 100 acres of property taken for construction of the dam and resulting Center Hill Lake, but who was also employed in the construction. Adcock briefed visitors to the July 21, 2012 tour of the power plant and ongoing construction project.
