While conducting the recharge operations described above, this project aims to provide more than <br /> 95 surface acres of wetland habitat on three or more tracts of land located in western Morgan <br /> County near the South Platte River. These sites are located between Bijou No.2 Reservoir and the <br /> river, in the midst of the Golden Triangle wetland complex. Wetlands and ponds will be designed <br /> to optimize recharge,augmentation supply,and waterfowl habitat. The IMRICo water to be re- <br /> timed will likely be diverted in November- March,which can provide warm water areas for <br /> waterfowl during freezing weather. The Groves diversions will likely occur at different times, <br /> when there is no call on the river or freezing weather removes the call because senior ditches cannot <br /> divert. Initial investigation has led DU to conclude that this project will be very beneficial to <br /> wintering and migrating waterfowl in the South Platte watershed. DU wants to seek matching <br /> funding fur this project and to participate in project design and delivery. <br /> 4. lithe Contracting Entity is different then the Applicant(Project Sponsor or Owner)please describe <br /> the Contracting Entity here. <br /> Not applicable. <br /> Part B. - Description of the Water Activity — Please Refer to Criteria and Guidance Document for Eligibly <br /> Requirements <br /> I.
