Attachment B <br />Description of Project: <br />This project lies in the Roaring Fork Valley in the southwestern portion of Eagle County and the eastern <br />portion of Garfield County, Colorado. The Missouri Heights - Mountain Meadow Irrigation Company <br />operates the Missouri Heights - Mountain Meadow Irrigation Company Ditch for the benefit of the <br />shareholders by providing irrigation water from the Spring Park Reservoir. <br />The beginning portion of the earthen ditch below the Reservoir loses as much as 300 of the water in the <br />ditch due to seepage through the course and roll ky soils. The Missouri Heights - Mountain Meadow <br />Irrigation Company wants to install a linin or ipeline to make a permanent fix of this section. <br />Proposed work will take place in the fall and winter of 2013 while the ditch is not in use. <br />The proposal is to line or pipe the 3500 ft. seeping canal. The lining or pipeline will prevent water loss <br />due to ditch seepage. <br />The project consists of a concrete water control structure, about 3500 feet of a new product called <br />"Smart Ditch" and related rock protection of both the pipe and structure. <br />Without controlling seepage from the ditch water loss will continue until the ditch is lined or piped. <br />
