OPIlVION OF FEASIBILITY <br />There do not appear to be significant roadblocks, other than cost, which would keep the Supply <br />Irrigating Ditch Company from successfully completing this project. The project does <br />signifcantly raise the assessment level assessments from $125 per share to as high as $230 per <br />share of stock. <br />Following is a cost to benefit analysis of the project. <br />Total Proiect Cost including interest <br />$49,384 x 30 years + $1,193,000 = $ 2,674,520 <br />Total Cost per Share of Stock <br />$ 2,674,520 = 400 = $6,686 <br />Average Cost Per Share of Stock Per Year <br />$6,686 = 30 years = $223 <br />Cost Per Acre-foot Of Water Delivered For An Average Year <br />$ 2,674,520 =(540 A-Ft x 30 yrs) _$165 <br />The current value of the water is expected to be in the range of $5,000 to $20,000 per acre foot. <br />This is based on the price of water sold in Northern Colorado over the past year. Water that has <br />a higher priority number or that can be used for M&I use or consumptive use has sold for as high <br />as $20,000 per acre foot. This water is very junior however and we believe a reasonable value <br />to be $7,000 per acre foot. Over the 30 year life of the loan the value would be expected to be <br />much higher than used in the analysis. <br />Benefit/Cost =[$7,000 x 540 A-Ft] =$ 2,674,520 = 1.4 <br />COLLATERAL <br />The Supply Irrigating Ditch Company can offer the following collateral for the CWCB loan. <br />1. The revenue from assessments as allowed by the Company By-Laws and Articles <br />of Incorporation. <br />2. A certificate of deposit account in the amount of one annual payment to be held by <br />the State Treasurer. <br />Knoth Reservoir-Feasibility Study Page 12 <br />
