Construction is <br />expected to begin January 2000 and to be completed by May 2000. <br /> <br />Permitting <br /> <br />All easements and rights of way have been arranged for. The Company expects to be exempt <br />from 404 permitting by Statutory exemption, 33 CFR Section 323.4(a) 3. This will be confirmed <br />with the Army Corps of Engineers. <br /> <br />I nstitutional Considerations <br /> <br />Entities that are, or may be, involved in the desi~ln, construction, and financing of the project <br />include: <br /> <br />Chilcott Ditch (CDC); financing and project management. <br />Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS); financing, design, and construction. <br />Colorado Water Conservation Board (CWCB); financing and construction, <br /> <br />The CDC will be the lead for the financing, design, and construction of the projE3ct and will be <br />the entity entering into contracts and agreements with the various entities for the services <br />provided by each. <br /> <br />Financial Analysis <br /> <br />Several entities will be involved in financing the estimated total project cost of $1 million. The <br />CDC is applying for a loan from the CWCB in maximum amount of $250,000, to accommodate <br />the 25% Company cost share. The actual or estimated amounts by entity are given in Table 2, <br /> <br />Table 2.

The standard agricultural lending rate <br />would be 4%, resulting in annual payments of $14,458. To this would be added $1,446 per year <br />for the first 10 years to fund the emergency reserve account, for a total annual cost of $15,903. <br /> <br />Chilcott Ditch Company <br />Diversion Structure Feasibility Study <br />November 1999 <br /> <br />Page 10 of 12 <br /> <br />I . <br />
