If the project is for rehabilitation of an existing reservoir, is the reservoir currently under a storage <br />restriction order from the State Engineer? n/a <br />4. General location of the project. Prowers County. The south well field is located south of Lamar. <br />5. Please provide a brief narrative description of the proposed project including purpose, need, <br />facilities, type of water uses to be served and service area. Attach separate sheet, if needed. <br />Description of Project <br />This project replaces the South Wellfield Raw Water Transmission Line, which is approximately <br />34,800' long, in order to prevent catastrophic failure of the line. It includes finalizing design and <br />permitting, bid process, removal and replacement of the existing line, project management and <br />administration. <br />Purpose and Need <br />The purpose of this project is to replace a water pipeline that is crucial to the water supply of the City of <br />Lamar. The degraded condition of the line was discovered during an energy audit of the water system. <br />The Lamar Water/Wastewater Department planned to "pig" the line in order to remove corrosion and <br />increase efficiency. A section of pipe was removed and inspected, and it became obvious that an <br />attempt to clean the line would likely result in major failure of the pipeline. <br />Facilities <br />• 34,800 LF of pipeline <br />• PS2 Tank <br />• Well 22 <br />• Air Vent <br />• Well 27 <br />• <br />PSI Tank <br />• Road Crossings <br />• Miscellaneous Connections at Existing Piping <br />Water Uses to be Served <br />• Residential <br />• Commercial <br />• City of Lamar — irrigation and recreation <br />Service Area <br />• The project serves the City of Lamar <br />6. Will the acquisition of additional water rights be necessary? NO <br />3 <br />
