Delivery: 6000 acre-feet <br /> <br />CWCS Small Project Loan: $151,500 <br /> <br />Interest Rate: 2.5% <br /> <br />Term: 20 years <br /> <br />The SBI is a private family farm corporation located 10 miles north of Sterling in Logan County, near <br />the town of Iliff. 581 has approximately 723 acres of sprinkler irrigated farm groul"ld. The ground is <br />irrigated with 5 tributary groundwater wells, which were drilled in the late 1960's and early 1970's. <br />The wells pump on average 1400 acre-feet annually. The water is typically used to irrigate com, <br />alfalfa, beans and wheat. The 12 wells are currently augmented under the Groundwater <br />Appropriators of the South Platte (GASP plan of operation. SBI is completely dependent on their 5 <br />wells, which have very junior water rights. 581 has been using GASP to replace depletions from <br />well pumping when there is a senior water right .call" on the river. SBI plans to construct 2 wells to <br />pump water into a recharge ponds in the winter months when there is not a call on the river. Water <br />from the ponds would have a delayed return to the river in summer months when SBI has <br />depletions that need to be offset with augmentation water. The wells, drilled near the South Platte <br />River, would pump up to a combined rate of 13.4 cfs (producing up to 6000 acre feet annually. <br />They would pump to the recharge ponds through 18. underground piping. An existing well away <br />from the river, near the recharge pond would be converted for augmentation, and the piping used to <br />return .stored. water to the river when necessary. .1 <br /> <br />,~ <br /> <br /> <br />, -, <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />.....il." <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />" ..:/~{ij-;~-~Jjr<'i:(:':e:::"'. <br /> <br />-..::'.::;;:~:.:;_~::;.::~.~ .r(a Lie l AND 5 <br />.....~._.:...i:-.....:....
