Current work activities:
On April 3, 2025, a federal district judge issued a remedy order on the Gross Reservoir Expansion Project ordering construction to stop, among other remedies. The judge then granted a temporary 14-day stay, allowing construction to proceed during that window.
On April 10, Denver Water asked the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to extend the temporary stay and allow construction to continue beyond the 14-day window. On April 11, that request was granted, extending the temporary stay "until further order of the court."
During this work you may:
- See:
- Shuttles, passenger vehicles and deliveries headed to site daily.
- Work during the day and night, including lights during night shift to support the safety of our crews.
- Hear:
- Noise from vehicles, equipment, plants and work around site.
