The pump plant <br />was built in the mid 1960's, and is located 2 miles east of the Town of Silt. It has a capacity of 36 <br />CFS, and delivers an average of 4,000 acre-feet per year. The pump plant transformer must be <br />replaced due to an upgrade of the transmission line by Xcel Energy. Western Area Power <br />Administration will design the project in 2003, and construction will be completed in 2004. The District <br />has completed the feasibility study using information from the preliminary design. Proposed funding <br />for the project consists of a $486,000 Small Project Loan and a $5,000 Feasibility Study Grant from <br />the CWCB, a $15,000 planning grant from the Bureau of Reclamation, and the remainder from the <br />District. <br /> <br /> <br />Location Map <br /> <br />5 <br />
