<br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />TO: The DeWeese-Dye Ditch and Reservoir Co. File <br /> <br />FROM: Bill Green <br /> <br />DATE: August 22, 1996 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: DeWeese-Dye Board Meeting <br /> <br />I met last night (August 21) with the board of the DeWeese-Dye Ditch and Reservoir Company <br />and with Mike Graber of the Division 2 Engineer's Office and Brian Johnson of GEl Consultants <br />to discuss the rehabilitation project for the DeWeese Dam. We discussed the alternatives for the <br />project including the no-action alternative. Mike Graber pointed out the implications of not doing <br />the repair work such as a storage restriction and the potential loss of water rights in the long run. <br /> <br />I discussed the need for a feasibility study before we could make a recommendation for a <br />Construction Fund loan to our Board. We also reviewed the Construction Fund process. <br /> <br />I indicated that, if they desire to continue with the feasibility work, we would make a <br />recommendation to our Board for a feasibility study loan of$17,450. This, along with the $5,000 <br />Small Dam Site grant the company has already received, would represent 50 percent funding of <br />the total feasibility costs which GEl estimates at $44,900 for the concrete coring investigations <br />and the feasibility report. I also suggested that we could present the request to the Board in <br />November if they want to continue with the feasibility work this year. <br /> <br />The majority of the company Board members present seemed to be in favor of continuing the <br />feasibility work this year and of going to the Board in November for the feasibility study loan. <br />They will meet again next week to decide. <br /> <br />cc: Section B Staff <br />
