Backbone State Park is the flag-ship park for the Iowa DNR. It was the first Iowa State Park and was established in May 1920. There will be a Centennial Celebration at Backbone State Park next year in May 2020 and this project will restore its iconic CCC structures. The Beach Lodge, Boat Building, Auditorium, and all three shelters (North, South, and West) will have work done on them to restore the structures to their original, beautiful appearance.
The purpose of this project is to dewater the last 21.2 acre-feet (6,900,000 gallons) that remain below the drain pipe. Hickory Grove Lake is currently undergoing a restoration effort, and the lake has been drained down to the drain pipe (elevation 942.0). The remaining pool is approximately 10 acres in size, with a maximum depth of five feet, and a volume of 21.2 acre-feet. The contractor shall provide all materials, equipment, and labor to dewater the remaining pool to an elevation of 938.0. The contractor may discharge their pumps directly into the drain pipe.
