PEOPLES DITCH COMPANY <br />DIVERSION STRUCTURE AND PIPELINE <br />Proiect Description <br />The People's Ditch Company historically diverted irrigation water from the South Platte <br />River at an existing diversion point located approximately 6 miles northwest of the Town of <br />Sterling. This existing diversion structure was damaged during the flood of 1995 and was entirely <br />washed out in 1997. This $75,000 project constructed a new diversion structure along the Bravo <br />Ditch, therefore eliminating the need for the existing structure. Additionally, 1,015 feet of 24"PVC <br />pipeline was constructed to transport the flow from the Bravo Ditch back to Peoples Ditch. <br />Project Data <br />Sponsor: People Ditch Company County: Logan Water Source: S.
