Water Project Loan Program - Project Data <br />Borrower: Supply Irrigating Ditch Company <br />Project Name: Knouth Reservoir Dam <br />Rehabilitation <br />Drainage Basin: South Platte <br />Total Project Cost: $995,000 <br />Type of Borrower: Blended (Ag., Municipal <br />High Income, Commercial) <br />CWCB Loan: $904,960 (Including 1% fee) <br />County: Boulder <br />Project Type: Reservoir Rehabilitation <br />Water Source: St. Vrain Creek <br />Funding Sources: CWCB, Company <br />Aver. Diversion: 4,800 acre-feet <br />Interest Rate: 2.60% Term: 30 years <br />Supply Irrigating Ditch Company services approximately 8,500 acres of irrigated farmland in <br />Boulder County between Lyons and Mead. Currently the water for irrigation is supplied by a direct <br />flow decree and from the Beaver Park Reservoir (which is approx. 25 miles west of the start of the <br />Supply Ditch near the continental divide). Supply Irrigating Ditch Company is in the process of <br />acquiring a storage decree within Knouth Reservoir in exchange for the rehabilitation of the <br />reservoir. This reservoir will give the Company some system flexibility, as this storage is <br />significantly closer to users than Beaver Park Reservoir. The reservoir improvements include: <br />construction of a spillway, removing vegetation from the embankment of the dam, lining select areas <br />on the upstream dam face with a clay liner, placing riprap along the upstream dam face, enclosing an <br />irrigation ditch within a pipe, and installing dam instrumentation. <br />Location Map <br />
