<br />00 <br />r- and Harvey Mesa. The existing Harvey Gap Reservoir will continue to store <br />~ early season runoff delivered through the Grass Valley Canal from Rifle <br />Creek for use on lands on Harvey Mesa. The Rifle Gap Reservoir will have <br />a capacity of 12,650 acre-feet, including 9,500 acre-feet of active capa- <br />city for irrigation and 3,150 acre-feet of inactive capacity for sediment <br />control and fish and wildlife. <br /> <br />Additional irrigation water for project lands will be pumped from the <br />Colorado River by the Silt pumping plant located at Davis Point. This <br />water will be del ivered to project lands in the lower Harvey Mesa and <br />lower Antlers and Cactus Valleys by the Silt pump canal. A portion of <br />this area is currently receiving water through eight private pumping sys- <br />tems wi th 1 ifts from the Cactus Valley Canal. The increase in water sup- <br />plies provided by the project will be 5,030 acre-feet for presently irriga- <br />ted lands and 6,700 acre-feet for new lands, a total of 11,730 acre-feet, <br />at the point of diversiono <br /> <br />Irrigation water made available by the project will be used to irrigate <br />4,479 acres of land now irrigated with only a partial water supply and <br />2,118 acres of land not now irrigated. In addition, 244 acres of Bureau <br />of Reclamation Class 4 land and 226 acres of class 6w presently irrigated <br />land will continue to receive present water supplieso Several miles of <br />interceptor and outlet drains will also be constructed as part of the <br />project.
