<br />UNC will provide matching funds through the use of in-kind services of labor and <br />equipment. <br /> <br />In general terms, UNC must: <br /> <br />a. build a reservoir to hold sufficient raw water for irrigation purposes <br /> <br />b. build a clear well for filtration purposes <br /> <br />c. build a pumping station to distribute the water throughout the two <br />campuses <br /> <br />We envisage a three-phase process. Phase 1 is the feasibility study, Phase <br />2 is the final design, Phase 3 is the actual construction stage. While the <br />overall theme of this project is straight forward, convert from treated water <br />usage to raw water usage, there are enough unknowns that a feasibility study is <br />warranted. A systems inventory must be done to identify existing components. <br />Components include: <br /> <br />a. type and size of pipes; this includes underground sprinkler pipes as <br />well as piping to deliver water from the Greeley Loveland ditch to the <br />campus <br /> <br />b. location of valves and meters <br /> <br />e. water rights issues <br /> <br />f. ditch rights issues <br />g. legal perimeter <br /> <br />h. an assessment of feasibility/cost to convert current landscaping to <br />lower water use plants and more automated irrigation systems utilizing <br />probes, etc. to measure moisture content <br /> <br />Resource Consultants and Engineers, Inc., Ft. Collins1, estimates that this <br />may cost $20,000-$40,000. UNC seeks $25,000 for Phase 1. UNC will obtain all <br />needed documents from the University, City of Greeley, ditch companies, water <br />districts and the State, to cut down on professional service costs. UNC will <br />issue a RFP in order to obtain the best bid for these services. <br /> <br />Phase 2 costs for final design is estimated to be $30,0001 which would <br />include plans for: <br /> <br />a. reservoir design <br />b. clear well design <br />c. pump sizing <br />d. hookups <br />e. air locks to avoid contamination of potable drinking water by raw <br />water <br />f. delivery systems to the two campuses <br /> <br />Ipersonal communication with Paul E.
