April Construction News
4/7/26
March saw the full spectrum of Michigan spring, including sun, snow and lots of rain. Our crews took advantage of the weather to make progress toward meeting milestones, but high water levels are creating challenging conditions and slowing work, particularly at the Smallwood and Secord sites. Sanford Lake residents will see the water level rise starting on April 15th. Click the button below to learn more about the construction on each dam.

Our construction newsletter highlights the specific work completed last month and new upcoming milestones for the dams.

Sanford Dam is now considered substantially complete, however Smallwood Dam's estimated substantial completion date has been delayed a month.
