PROJECT SUMMARY — RIO GRANDE WCD - CONTRACT C150093 SECTION 1 -CONTRACTOR INFORMATION Contractor Name: Rio Grande Water Conservation District Address: 10900 Highway 160 East Alamosa Colorado 81101-9518 Contact: Ray Wright, President Phone Number: 719-589-5855 Fax Number: 719-589-4331 Section 2 — PROJECT DESCRIPTION Description of Project. The PROJECT will consist of the District's participation with the U. S. Bureau of Reclamation in the rehabilitation (re-drill and re-locate) of several Closed Basin project wells. The existing wells have lost production capabilities over the past several years due to draw-down of the aquifer at specific locations and basic wear and tear of well pumps and appurtenances. The well improvements are designed to reduce the well screen size and the size of the bore and are intended to insure the system meets the water quality requirements of the project. The Closed Basin project is located in the San Luis Valley and operated by the Bureau of Reclamation. The project is a network of groundwater salvage wells, pipeline laterals, and a conveyance channel designed to salvage unconfined ground water and available surface flow in the Closed Basin that would otherwise be lost to evapotranspiration. The project assists Colorado in meeting its' commitment to the states of New Mexico and Texas under the Rio Grande Compact of 1939, and the United States' commitment to Mexico under the treaty of May 21 , 1906. The project also provides delivery of water to the Alamosa National Wildlife Refuge and Blanca Wildlife Habitat Area, stabilization of San Luis Lake, recreational facilities at San Luis Lake, and fish and wildlife enhancement.
