<br />The Ditch Company's Main Diversion on the South Platte River Near Sterling, CO
<br />Prolect Description
<br />The Low Line Ditch Company maintains and operates the Low Line Ditch, delivering
<br />irrigation water to a 2,070-acre service area. This project involved the construction of 4
<br />augmentation ponds and drilling one augmentation well to generate augmentation credits to cover
<br />1,200 acre-feet of depletions for 13 irrigation wells used by stockholders of the Company. These
<br />13 wells were formerly augrnented under the Groundwater Appropriators of the South Platte
<br />(GASP), which has recently been dissolved, therefore no longer providing augmentation credits.

<br />to include: new gates, walk platform, and concrete diversion walls.
