Brantley Project

United States · Water and environment

In-depth research Release 1

Project scope

The page describes Brantley as a multipurpose dam and gives conflicting completion accounts: one says the dam was completed in 1987, while another says Reclamation completed it in 1991. The page also describes Brantley Dam as lying between McMillan and Avalon and near the old McMillan site. Its account is limited to the dam and does not establish the full physical or administrative boundary of the Brantley Project.

Reported status and procurement

Reported development

The page says Brantley Dam provides flood-control benefits, helps Avalon Dam, and has 335,054 acre-feet of capacity assigned to flood-control functions.

Procurement availability
Unknown / not established

Reported regulatory context

The page says Public Law 92-514 gave Congressional authorization for the Brantley Project on October 20, 1972.

A source report alone does not establish current progress or an open buying window.

Project summary

The Bureau of Reclamation page describes Brantley as a multipurpose dam within the Brantley Project, about 13 miles north of Carlsbad, near the old McMillan site. It reports flood-control benefits, support to Avalon Dam, and 335,054 acre-feet assigned to flood-control functions. The page records Congressional authorization on October 20, 1972, and gives conflicting completion accounts: 1987 in one passage and 1991 in another. It says the Carlsbad Irrigation District operates and maintains Brantley Dam.

Evidence limits and unknowns

The source gives conflicting completion years, 1987 and 1991, and does not resolve the chronology.

The source does not establish the full physical or administrative boundary of the Brantley Project.

This source does not establish current works, a procurement or supplier package, a buying window, financing stage, or next milestone.

The captured project-page text does not state a publication date.

The related Carlsbad Project History document is listed but not evaluated; linked documents and images are outside the supplied evidence, and the whole document was not reviewed.

Implementing agency

Source reported

The page says the Bureau of Reclamation designed and constructed Brantley from the outset and elsewhere says Reclamation completed the dam in 1991; the page also says the Carlsbad Irrigation District operates and maintains Brantley Dam. The completion timing remains in conflict with the 1987 account.
