Florence dam construction

Description
Florence dam construction - View showing the buttresses as poured for the winter in the temporary spillway section. The concrete was poured in these places in order to prevent the trenches from filling up during the winter with dirt, rock, etc., and also to prevent being filled up in case of spill at this point next year.
