<br /> LOC A TION
<br /> The North Poudre Irrigation Company service area County: Larimer
<br /> encompasses approximately 300 square miles, including Water Source: Cache la Poudre River
<br /> 160 square miles of service area under the North Poudre
<br /> Canal (36 square miles of irrigated acreage),as well as Drainage Basin: South Platte River
<br /> additional service areas covering 14 communities and Division: 1 District: 3
<br /> municipal water providers that own NPIC shares.
<br /> The Livermore Tunnel carries water diverted from the North Poudre Canal headgate, located on the
<br /> north side of the North Fork Cache la Poudre River, for approximately 4,900 feet before it is discharges
<br /> into an earth-lined open canal and flows on toward the Buckeye Lateral, Park Creek Reservoir, and the
<br /> Company's downstream delivery infrastructure.
<br /> The Livermore Tunnel consists of two tunnels connected by a short section of open channel. The tunnels
<br /> are approximately 8.5 feet high and 8 feet wide with a concrete invert along the entire tunnel length.
<br /> The tunnels are considered generally stable with the exception of six collapse zones where large piles of
<br /> rock and debris have accumulated in the base of the tunnel, ponding up to three feet of water and
<br /> restricting the overall flow capacity. The geometry
<br /> of the collapse zones varies; however, the
<br /> disrupted zones were estimated visually to be up to
<br /> 45 feet high and 35 feet wide. An ongoing concern Project
<br /> is of roof or partial collapse in the tunnel, which
<br /> could result in severe disruption of water service Site
<br /> for 14 communities and over 200 farms. The
<br /> project will also include proactive repairs to an . ;ermore
<br /> additional ten shear/void areas. ce
<br /> Construction is scheduled for the fall/winter of
<br /> 2016/2017.
