<br />Central Weld County Water District - Proposed Dry Creek Reservoir <br />November 25-26, 2002 . <br /> <br />Agenda ,Item 20g <br /> <br />Water Project Construction Loan Program-Project Data <br />Borrower: Central Weld County Water District County: Larimer <br /> <br />Project Name: Dry Creek Reservoir Project Type: New Reservoir <br />Drainage Basin: South Platte Water Source~ CST <br />Total Project Cost: , $10,500,000 Funding Sources: CWCS,. L 1WD, CWCWD <br />Type of Borrower: Municipal (Middle/High) Aver. Delivery: 5200 acre-feet <br /> <br />CWCBLoan: $3,937,500 (50%) <br /> <br />Interest Rate: 4.15% <br /> <br />Term: 20 years <br /> <br />'The Central Weld County Water District (CWCWD) and Little Thompson Water District (LlWD) are <br />each applying for a CWCS loan to construct a new water storage 'reservoir in a 50/50 partnership. , <br />Both districts would jointly build, own' and operate the proposed reservoir. L lWD and CWCWD jointly <br />own the Carter Lake FilterPlaf'lt that treats Colorado-Big Thompson (C-BT) water. ,CurrentJy, the filter <br />plant has no raw water storage facility. All water treated by the plant is delivered directly from 'Carter <br />Lake to the filter plant through the St. Vrain SupplyCan~1. Consequently, the Districts are entirely <br />dependent on availability of water from Carter La'ke.ln wet years, the Districts are unable to treat and <br />store all ofthe water towhich they are entitled. In dry years, the Districts Can have a shortage of water <br />and are forced to meet their demands with water from outside entities. 'In addition, any condition that <br />would interrupt supply from Carter Lake such as maintenance to Carter Lake or the St. Vrain Supply <br />Canal also would cause interruption in operation of the treatment plant. The proposed project located <br />2~3 miles southeast of Carter Lake would include construction of an approximately 5200 acre-foot <br />reservoir, including a40-foot high earthen dam with emergency spillway and outletworks, conve~ion <br />of an existing 2Q-inch treated water line to a raw water line to connect the reservoir to the Filter Plant, <br />and construction ofa 5000 GPM pump station to pump water from the reservoir to the Filter Plant. <br /> <br /> <br />~-" <br />" I ~ <br />,f <br />I <br /> <br />,. - .._.-, I _..- .
