<br />"-- ":' <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />COLORADO WATER CONSERVATION BOARD <br />721 State Centennial Building <br />1313 Sherman Street <br />Denver, Colorado 80203 <br /> <br />January 15, 1985 <br /> <br />FLORIDA FA~~ IRRIGATION PROJECT <br /> <br />THE FLORIDA CANAL COMPANY <br /> <br />Introduction <br /> <br />The project area is located approximately 10 miles south of <br />Durango in the middle portion of the San Juan Resource <br />Conservation and Development Area and is served by the Florida <br />Canal Company. There are 22 owners irrigating 1410 acres <br />adjacent to a 7 mile portion of the Florida Canal, which acreage <br />is the subject of the proposed project. <br /> <br />Problem <br /> <br />The rolling topography in the area is not conducive to land <br />leveling practices and conventional irrigation by canal and <br />ditches is very inefficient. The present irrigation system has <br />very high maintenance costs and the irrigators who are using <br />sprinkler systems have high pumping costs. <br /> <br />Feasibility Study <br /> <br />A feasibility study was prepared on this project by the <br />u.S. Soil Conservation Service as a part of its San Juan RC&D <br />plan. Supplemental information was asked for and received by the <br />CWCS staff in order to bring the aforementioned study into <br />compliance with the CWCB guidelines. <br /> <br />Proposed Project <br /> <br />This project calls for the installation of an inlet <br />structure and 4.2 miles of gravity pressure pipeline. When <br />completed this project would allow the irrigators to convert to <br />sprinkler systems, increase irrigation efficiencies, and reduce <br />annual maintenance and pumping costs significantly. The total <br />estimated project cost is $700,000. <br /> <br />721 <br />fl/ir <br />
