1 <br />, <br />t <br />' PROJECT SPONSOR <br />Feasibility Study <br />for <br />Angel Lake Outlet Repair <br />' The Wood Lake Mutual Water & Irrigation Company (WLMWIC) is a Colorado Mutual Ditch <br />Company and a Non-profit Corporation. Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws are included in <br />Appendix C. <br />� <br />�I <br />� <br />� <br />, <br />C J <br />The company's facilities, built about the turn of the century, are located in Weld County, Colorado <br />approximately 5 miles west of Eaton, Colorado. They consist of Wood Lake (capacity 3213 acre- <br />feet), Angel Lake (capacity 424 acre-feet with refi11848 acre-feet), Meyers Lake (capacity 600 acre <br />feet), and approximately 5 miles of unlined ditch and associated structures. <br />PROJECT LOCATION <br />Angel Lake is located approximately 2 miles east of Severance, Colorado on Weld County Road 74. <br />The specific location is in the Southeast quarter of Section 31, Township 7 North, Range 66 West. <br />Figure 1 shows the project location. <br />PROJECT SERVICE AREA <br />' The service area of Angel Lake includes approximately 215 acres of crop land. The total service area <br />for the Company is approximately 2,150 acres. Water from Angel Lake can be run through both <br />Wood Lake and Meyers Lake to irrigate any of the 2,150 aces irrigated by WLMWIC. The 215 acres <br />' irrigated out of Angel Lake however can only be serviced through Angel Lake. Crops include corn, <br />pinto beans, sugar beets, wheat, barley, oats, alfalfa and grass hay. The location of the reservoir is <br />shown on Figure 1 and the service area boundaxies are shown on Figure 2. <br />' WATER RIGHTS <br />' The company's decreed water right and appropriation on Angel Lake is dated December 31, 1899 <br />for the first filling and the refill decree has an appropriation date of March 31, 1900. The reservoir <br />has Priority No. 136B for the first filling and Priority No. 136D for the refill decree. The total <br />, appropriation is for 424.7 acre-feet for each filling to a depth of 20.17 feet.

Thus the average yield <br />and firm yield of the reservoir could not be determined. <br />Angel Lake Feasibility Study Page 1 <br />' <br />
