Toyne (GOT) <br /> <br />County: Sedgwick <br /> <br />Project Name: Toyne Recharge Project <br />Drainage Basin: South Platte <br /> <br />Project Type: Well Augmentation <br /> <br />Water Source: New wells <br /> <br />Total Project Cost: $115,000 <br /> <br />Funding Sources: CWCS <br /> <br />Type of Borrower: Agricultural <br />CWCB Small Project Loan: $75,600 <br /> <br />Aver. Delivery: 3500 acre-feet <br /> <br />Interest Rate: 2.75% Term: 30 years <br /> <br />GOT is a private family farm located 14 miles south of Julesurg in Sedgewick County. GOT has <br />approximately 517 acres of irrigated farm ground. There are 8 tributary groundwater wells, which <br />were drilled in the late 1960's and early 1970's. The wells pump on average 1100 acre-feet <br />annually. The water is typically used to irrigate corn, alfalfa, beans and wheat. The 8'wells are <br />currently augmented under, the Groundwater Appropriators of the South Platte (GASP) plan of <br />operation GOT is completely dependent on their 8 wells, which have very junior water rights. GOT <br />has been using GASP to replace depletions from well pumping when there is a senior water right <br />"call" on the river. GOT plans to construct a well to pump water into a recharge pond in the winter <br />months when there is not a call on the river. Water from the pond would have a delayed return to <br />the river in summer months when GOT has depletions that need to be offset with augmentation <br />water. The well, drilled near the South Platte River, would pump up to a rate of 7.8 cfs, producing <br />up to 3500 acre feet annually. They would pump to the recharge ponds through 15 " underground <br />piping. An additional well for augmentation would be drilled near the recharge pond, and the piping <br />used to return "stored" water to the river when necessary. <br /> <br /> <br />Location Map <br /> <br />Page 6 of 6 <br />
