scheduling allowances. Direct flow decrees associated with the Sanford Ditch diversion total <br /> 146.3 cfs, as follows: <br /> Priority No. 104 Decreed Rate 107.5 cfs ) AJW 7 <br /> Priority No. 172 Decreed Rate 38.8 cfs A.340°`" <br /> Sanford Canal Company has 50,054 outstanding shares. Assessments are determined at the <br /> annual meetings of the Sanford Canal Company, usually held in February or March of each year, <br /> based on anticipated expenses for that year's irrigation season. The dollar amount of each by <br /> stockholder's annual assessment is determined by multiplying <br /> assessments have been at shares <br /> except for <br /> the determined percentage. For the past five years a J <br /> 2010,when they were at 15%. /5 <br /> Ste' <br /> This provides the baseline administrative assessment required to run the company. In addition, <br /> when the communal pumps come on, stockholders pay an additional $3.00 per hour to run the <br /> pumps, and at the end of the year they apportion each irrigator's share of the actual electrical <br /> bill. As can be seen in the Budget, utility costs represent a significant financial burden. <br /> Reducing the dependence on pumping will greatly benefit water users, with a commensurate <br /> improvement in the local economy. <br /> The Sanford Canal has voted to create a $0.10/share special assessment for the purpose of <br /> servicing the CWCB loan, and this will be added to the original baseline assessment and the <br /> pumping assessment. <br /> NEED FOR THE PROJECT <br /> The Sanford Canal Company and the District need to have diversion structures that function <br /> effectively. This project, serving over 3,000 acres of irrigated land, primarily helps sustain <br /> agriculture. Water quality and channel stability on the Conejos are being negatively impacted <br /> rocks, <br /> by the Sanford Canal Company's resorting to the order to methods of <br /> theiriwaaterr. Gragel bars <br /> trees, cinder blocks, and whatever debris they can in o <br /> pushed up in the river during low water are repeatedly washed away when the river rises, <br /> causing further instability, sedimentation, and downstream resses erosion, <br /> for well-d of <br /> d <br /> cfs rush by, overpaying the Compact. This project <br /> structures, reduced maintenance, significantly improved water management <br /> efficiencies, and the accurate control of compact-entitled waters, as follows. <br /> Colorado needs to avoid over-paying the Rio Grande Compact. The Sanford Canal is located <br /> 1� just 10 diversions upstream from the New Mexico border. As DWR adjusts its forecasts to meet <br /> A'S 5 Colorado's Compact requirements, the District implements curtailments, with ditches in The <br /> /. Confluence taking the brunt of those adjustments. Despite DWR's best estimates of current <br /> '161- and expected river flows, errors in those forecasts often trigger premature or excessive <br /> yS14k curtailment of irrigators on the Conejos.
