Re: Victor No.2 Dam Rehabilitation Project

Dan McAuliffe
Deputy Director

Dear Tish:

Per our telephone conversation today, there are a few remaining questions regarding the
Victor No.2 Dam Rehabilitation Project which we would like to be able to resolve before
Icon Engineering completes the feasibility study for the project and the Colorado Water
Conservation Board staff is able to make a final determination ofproject feasibility:

I. It is not entirely clear exactly what the proposed project includes in terms of reservoir
capacity and the amount by which the dam embankment and spillway will be raised.
Is $800,000 still an appropriate cost estimate for the work to be done?

2. Thank you for sending the schedule for the engineering design work. We would like
to request that the other major work tasks be included in a project implementation
schedule such as; upgrading the access road to the dam, acquisition of any required
permits (in addition to review of plans and specifications by the State Engineer's
Office), selection of a construction contractor and the dam and and reservoir
construction work.

3. We would like to suggest that you might want to allow more than one month for
review of plans and specifications by the State Engineer's Office.

4. It would be helpful to have some clarification on the sources of funds for the project
to include the grant from the Colorado Department of Local Affairs, the amount of
the City's financial participation in terms of cash or in-kind services and the
approximate amount which the City is intending to draw from the $600,000
Construction Fund authorization. The total amount of project funding should
correspond with the cost estimate.

5. The financial section of the feasibility study should be revised to mention the water
activity enterprise to be established prior the time the City and the CWCB enter into a
loan contract and how the enterprise will resolve the 'issue of parity with the loan
