Lake Fork Reservoir – Soil Cement Repairs
SABINE RIVER AUTHORITY OF TEXAS
LAKE FORK
353 Private Road 5183, Quitman, TX 75783
903-878-2262
December 10, 2021
PRESS RELEASE
Engineers recommend that the Sabine River Authority of Texas, Lake Fork Division, make
minor repairs to the soil cement along the Lake Fork Dam, some of which are currently
located underwater. Recent wave action dislodged numerous small sections of the soil
cement along the upstream side of the embankment, which protects the earthen portion
of the dam.
To facilitate these superficial and routine repairs, a drawdown of the reservoir will begin
Monday, December 13th to a target elevation of 397’ msl. The current schedule is to have
the work completed and the lake trending back up by the end of January 2022, but the
rate of rise will depend on the progress of work, rainfall, and inflow from upstream
tributaries.
The drawdown will give lake side property owners an opportunity to inspect and make
necessary repairs to boathouses, piers, retaining walls, and related structures.
Construction approval applications for this type of activity can be obtained from the Lake
Fork Division Office (903-878-2262).
For more information contact the Lake Fork Division Office (903-878-2262).

It’s time for the dock owners to make improvements to their brush piles.
