Eisenhower and Twin Tunnels) Monday, Sept 21 Site Visit (Eisenhower and Twin Tunnels) A tour of the Eisenhower-Johnson Memorial Tunnels will be offered on Monday, September 21, 2015. The Eisenhower-Johnson Memorial Tunnels are dual-bore, four-lane vehicular tunnels approximately 50 miles (80 km) west of Denver, Colorado. The tunnels carry Interstate 70 under the Continental Divide in the Rocky Mountains. With a maximum elevation of 11,158 feet (3,401 m) above sea level, they are one of the highest vehicular tunnels in the world. Both the Eisenhower and Johnson bores are approximately 1.7 miles (2.74 km) long, making the tunnels the longest mountain tunnels and highest point on the Interstate Highway system. Completed in 1979, the tunnels were one of the last major pieces of the Interstate Highway system to be completed. While at the tunnels, the tour group will be given a history of the construction, a tour of the control and fan rooms and an update on the current installation of the tunnel fire suppression system. On the bus trip to the tunnels, a “windshield” tour and recent history (2013-2014) of the widening of the Veteran’s Memorial Tunnels (aka, Twin Tunnels) from two lanes in each direction to three lanes will be given. On the return trip to the hotel, we will make a stop at the Colorado School of Mines to tour its Earth Mechanics Institute (EMI).

Introduction The Upper Colorado River Basin Study (UPCO) was initiated in 1998 to identify and investigate water quantity and quality issues in the Study Area consisting of Grand and Summit Counties1. The primary goal of Phase II of UPCO was to develop the information and analytical tools necessary to understand existing hydrology and water quality conditions in the study area and how increased water diversions may impact those conditions. This information was meant to support discussions and negotiations between the stakeholders as they seek solutions to current and future water supply, reservoir level, instream flow, and water quality issues. Participants in the study were Grand and Summit Counties, Colorado River Water Conservation District (River District), Middle Park Water Conservancy District (Middle Park), Northwest Colorado Council of Government’s Water Quality and Quantity Committee (QQ), Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District (Northern), Denver Water (Denver) and Colorado Springs. The principal components of the Phase II study were: 1) compilation and analysis of water resources and water supply data for Summit and Grand Counties; 2) expansion of Denver’s hydrologic and water rights model (Platte and Colorado Simulation Model, PACSM) to represent individual West Slope water supply systems; 3) development of a data management and display tool to support the analysis of impacts associated with existing and future water supply and demand scenarios; and, 4) identification of issues to be addressed in Phase III, the solutions phase, of the study.

The tunnels often serve to ease the operations by providing short cuts, and easing of the grades, and avoiding persistent alignment problems. As the high speed rail networks are built out worldwide, tunnels provide opportunities to eliminate curves, and keeping grades as flat as possible to maintain service levels that attract riders. France, England, Germany, Italy and Spain advanced their high speed rail industry complex at the same time and began Figure 1 . Eurostar high speed their build out within in their borders with their own rolling trainset in Eurotunnel mock up stock, power supply and track configurations prior to the establishment of the European Union. Since the EU intercity high speed rail has expanded from intra-country schemes into cross-border, trans-Europe networks that allow the use of French, German, Italian or other rolling stock to provide international city connections. Tunnels have been used to shorten the routes and cross intervening seas or mountain ranges.
