The new structure would be built of 12 ft x 12 ft pre-cast concrete <br />box sections. The total estimated cost of the siphon replacement is $520,000. <br /> <br />On the 5th of August 2005, OMID personnel met with Mr. Dick Proctor, Manager of the <br />Grand Valley Water Users Association facilities, to discuss the results of the feasibility <br />study. Mr. Proctor was in concurrence with the proposed rehabilitation works, and added <br />that they would like to upgrade and reline their canal from the Colorado River offtake to <br />the entrance of Tunnel #3. He would like to continue discussions, regarding this upgrade <br />as plans and specifications are prepared for the power canal rehabilitation. <br /> <br />2616-R1 <br /> <br />Orchard Mesa Irrigation District <br /> <br />Water Management Consultants <br />
