The Company operates a sand gate located on a South Platte <br />River diversion structure. The sand gate is a vent section through the concrete rollover wall which is <br />boarded up when the Company needs to divert water. Boards must be removed during the winter to <br />allow excess sand (which builds up in front of the Company's diversion point) to wash down river. <br />Currently, in order to remove boards and open the gate, a Company employee must walk several <br />yards along the crest of the rollover wall to reach the sand gate. There is not a walkway or handrail <br />for safety. Because this is a major safety concern for the Company, it evaluated alternatives to both <br />improve the safety conditions for its employees and more efficiently operate the gate. The Company <br />has chosen to install a new bladder dam at its canal inlet to best control the volume of water entering <br />the canal and the sand issues. Construction is scheduled for January/February 2012. <br />i <br />T \ G f <br />.AtMeeKa, wnMaggn <br />Deuel and Snyder Canal <br />t,. 4 / `' .�'.��' �'"! / .�• • i � f ©A<MaAS�j �icxiiMROek�, eur4naon���` -:.' <br />_ �- <br />W <br />'� '.ia• �"" -�? _'."sG�`t-it.@.J2. e "I Mailt UvaY�lwlpwiaan.KNr f Y ���=c... <br />14 16, <br />�v'* /. ; ..... l,�{_ xn•.� M .. �B4m)" �Mmte Nata ji} k 1 r <br />{ _ wrgNtlA <br />�UiAN'�rwrara MM. •�� to �d�' -" ,.�" �.�� -._._- <br />NQW MM.9 T , .-. •on <br />�..✓ ` ^,: i ..
