New fishing pond/small lake in Northern Ut?

[wiperhunter2]

For the last month or more, as I drive by the mouth of Weber canyon, on Hwt 89, I've noticed a new project going on, anyone have an idea what they are doing? It is right in the middle of the two gravel pits on the East and West sides of the rode. They are driving these huge support beams into the ground between the East and West lanes of the Hwy and this week it appears they are getting ready to put another bridge over the river, near the location where the support beams are going in. Also it appears they are getting ready to start digging a tunnel under the Freeway.  20 years ago or so, they talked about deverting the river and filling up the two pits with water to form a big pond, for wind surfing and fishing, once they were done getting gravel out of the pits, could this be what they are doing? Has anyone heard anything about this? It would be cool if that were the plan because it is such a close location it would really be interesting to see what kind of fish they would plant in it, if that were the plan.
