Description of Project <br />This project completes a waterline that will provide water to the Ordway Cattle Feeders feedlot from wells <br />located on a local ranch owned by the company. The wells are decreed for irrigation and livestock watering. <br />The Ordway Cattle Feeders already has in place a battery of four wells, two booster stations and 4.2 miles of <br />pipe at the west end of the proposed system. Phase I, funded by Ordway Cattle Feeders in its entirety, <br />includes re- establishing easements and the rehabilitation of the existing stretch of pipeline, wells and booster <br />stations. Phase 2 completes the project with a third booster station, 10.5 miles of water pipeline, two back -up <br />generators, and a remote monitoring and control system. <br />Purpose and Need <br />The primary purpose of this project is to provide a consistent, viable supply of livestock drinking water, dust <br />abatement, and compost conditioning water for the Feedyard. The Feedyard also intends to use this new <br />water source to serve their feed mill in the future. In addition, the water supply will also provide an <br />emergency source of water for fighting farmstead and wild land fires in the area from Crowley to Ordway. <br />Facilities <br />• 10.5 miles of 15" diameter water pipeline <br />• 2 highway crossings bored, with 24" casings <br />• 10 fire hydrants <br />• Booster Station C <br />• 2 Back -up generators for booster stations <br />• Remote monitoring and control system <br />Water Uses to be Served <br />• Livestock drinking water <br />• Dust abatement <br />• Compost conditioning water <br />• Feed mill <br />• Office Use <br />• Emergency Firefighting <br />Service Area <br />• The project serves Ordway Feedyard and rural Crowley County between River Ranch and the <br />feedlot. <br />6.
