<br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />TO: The Greeley and Loveland Irrigation Co. File <br /> <br />FROM: Bill Green <br /> <br />DATE: December 13, 1996 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Meeting with Representatives of Greeley and Loveland Irrigation Co. <br /> <br />~~ <br />I met on Thursday, Dec. 12, with Dave ~'~~lM"It; the president of the Greeley and Loveland <br />Irrigation Co" John Gauthiere who is with the City of Greeley and a member of the board of the <br />Company, and Ed Toms ofECI. The Greeley and Loveland Irrigation Co, operates a fairly large <br />system (20,000 irrigated acres) in Larimer and Weld counties. <br /> <br />The Company is proposing a major rehabilitation program of it's facilities to include four dams <br />and four canals. Three of the dams have inadequate spillways and the Company is expecting a <br />letter from the State Engineer requesting action. <br /> <br />ECI will prepare a feasibility study for a program of staged projects over the next several years. <br />Funding could also be staged. A very preliminary cost estimate for the project is $1.0 million. The <br />projects may involve rehabilitation work on 2 or 3 dams and possible expansion of one reservoir <br />as well as control of seepage problems with ditches and canals. <br /> <br />They intend to complete the feasibility work next year and apply to the Board for construction <br />funding in Nov. '97. The Company will submit an application this month and would like to apply <br />for a feasibility study loan at the Jan, '97 Board meeting. We discussed a Small Dam Site grant of <br />$5,000. (Since a number of reservoirs are involved here we may want to provide more than <br />$5,000 in Small Dam Site funds.) <br /> <br />cc: Bill Stanton <br /> <br />?r ~;;~ <br />//h../ /7~~ <br />0~ 7beJ. <br />
