Follow the river west approx. 0.5 miles <br />to headgate. <br />Latitude <br />N37041 '11.5" <br /> <br />Longitude <br />W106020'21.6" <br /> <br />Section <br />NE1/4 S29 <br /> <br />Township <br />T40N <br /> <br />Range <br />R6E <br /> <br />Location: <br /> <br />Type: <br /> <br />Manually operated 2' wide cast iron slide gate <br /> <br />Good D No ~ Reason Submerged: <br />Condition: Fair ~ Submerged: N/A <br />Poor D Yes D <br /> <br />Repair(s) Needed: The wood headwall is deteriorating and the gate is somewhat outdated. River <br />flows have to be high to get water to the headgate. The structure could be replaced, but the structure <br />has such a junior water right that the river has to be relatively high for them to run water. <br /> <br />Upstream Configuration: The headgate sits along the south bank of the Rio Grande River on the <br />outside of a meander. There is no diversion structure or trash rack. <br /> <br />Comments: According to the water commissioner, the owner would like to modify the Weiss Ditch <br />structure so water rights from the Brey Ditch can be transferred to it. The Brey Ditch has more senior <br />water rights. If the Brey Ditch water rights are transferred to this structure it would likely need to be <br />completely removed and replaced. <br /> <br />Estimated Range of Cost: Medium <br /> <br />F:\Projects\20060507\Documents\Reports\Rio Grande\lnventory Forms\Weiss Ditch.doc <br /> <br />OA No. 2-2006-0507 <br />
